DON'T CHEAT BY SCROLLING DOWN FIRST!

It takes less than a minute.

Work this out as you read ......

Be sure you don't read the bottom until you've worked it out!

This is not one of those waste of time things, its fun.

1. First of all, pick the number of times a week that you would like to go out to eat.
(More than once but less than 10)

2. Multiply this number by 2 (just to be bold)

3. Add 5

4. Multiply it by 50

5. If you have already had your birthday this year add 1756. If you haven't, add 1755.

6. Now subtract the four digit year that you were born.


You should have a three digit number

The first digit of this was your original number.
(How many times you want to go out to restaurants in a week.)

The next two numbers are YOUR AGE! (Oh YES, it is!!!!!)

THIS IS THE ONLY YEAR (2006) IT WILL EVER WORK, SO SPREAD IT AROUND WHILE IT LASTS.

I found this on another board...wasn't it fun?

Hej Anna,

actually, this one is easier than the first, it just  alot more impressive on the linked site.

Its all based on the 9 times table.  Take any 2 digit number, and subtract the sum of the 2 digits.  This will ALWAYS produce a multiple of 9.  10-(1+0)=9, 27-(2+7)=18, 45-(4+5)=36, etc.  The symbols shown may seem to be random, but I'm sure that you will find that the ones for 9, 18, 27, 36, 45, 54, 63, 72, and 81 are identical, and is the symbol that "magically" appears.

God Jule!!! (Merry Christmas)

(editited only to add the seasonal message)
