    YOUR AGE BY BEER MATH

    ...a guy named Colin, posted this at one of the 'down under' forums.

    It's Friday...this seems to fit....

    Don't tell me your age; you'd probably lie anyway-!

    This is pretty neat.

    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, it's fun.

    1. First of all, pick the number of times a week that you would like to have a beer (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 -- I'll wait while you get the calculator

    5. If you have already had your birthday this year add 1760 ..
    If you haven't, add 1759..

    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
    (i.e., how many times you want to have beer each week).

    The next two numbers are


    YOUR AGE! (Oh YES, it is!!!!!)

    THIS IS THE ONLY YEAR (2010) IT WILL EVER WORK, SO SPREAD IT AROUND WHILE IT LASTS.

    Re: YOUR AGE BY BEER MATH

    For 2011 change add 1 to the 1759 or 1760 number. That number +250 needs to be the year or one less depending on the date of the year.
