YOUR AGE BY EATING OUT​

Don't tell me your age; you probably would tell a falsehood anyway, but your waiter may know!

YOUR AGE BY DINER & RESTAURANT MATH

This is pretty neat.

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, it's 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 1758; if you haven't, add 1757.


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


You should have a three digit number. The first digit was your original number. (I.e., How many times you want to go out to restaurants in a week.) The next two numbers are -----


YOUR AGE ! ------ (Oh YES, i t is!)

THIS IS THE ONLY YEAR (2008) THAT IT WILL EVER WORK, SO SPREAD IT AROUND WHILE IT LASTS !
 
Who is that, sprinting along the hotel lobby! It is *****, hands clutching a meaty axe! And with a cruel roar, her voice cometh:

"By Odin's mighty spear, I plunder until my loins find satisfaction!!!" :D :D :D
 
Your new vocabulary word for the week is "skookum," a term from the Chinook Indians that is still used in some parts of British Columbia and the Pacific Northwest. My astrological colleague Caroline Casey says it means "in cahoots with good spirits" and "completely made for the job." Wikipedia suggests that when you're skookum, you've got a clear purpose and are standing in your power spot. According to my reading of the omens, these definitions of skookum fit you pretty well right now. (P.S. When skookum is used to describe food, it means delicious and hearty, which could definitely be applied to you if you were edible.)
 
"I cannot seem to feel alive unless I am alert," wrote author Charles Bowden, "and I cannot feel alert unless I push past the point where I have control." Yikes! That's a pretty extreme approach. But I suggest that you consider trying it out in the coming week. If you hope to seize even one of the multiple opportunities that are swirling in your vicinity, you will need both supreme focus and a loosey-goosey willingness to respond to novelty. So don't tense up and blank out and try to wrestle the mysterious flows into submission. Use your sixth sense to find the groove, and relax into it.
