Your Age In Chocolate...This is really cool!

Your age in chocolate!!

Don't tell me your age; you probably would tell a falsehood anyway
-but the Hershey Man will know! YOUR AGE BY CHOCOLATE 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 have chocolate (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 1759 ..
If you haven't, add 1758.



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 chocolate each week).


The next two numbers are

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

THIS IS THE ONLY YEAR (2009) IT WILL EVER WORK, SO SPREAD IT AROUND WHILE IT LASTS.

The Tilt A Whirl Ride in 1986

Here I am with my friend Robin. We enjoyed going to the fair together. My sister sent me this picture my mom had of us on this ride. My mom said I got sick just like Mike did.
Hmmmm I thought it was my sister the hurled after The Tilt a Whirl. LOL!

That summer I went back with Robin and Tammy to Maple Ridge and Robin's mom took us to Expo 86 in Vancouver. The rides there were very cool. I liked Chute the Chutes; it was a Log Boat Ride up and big splashes coming down. I also remember the bucket ride that took us 200 feet up and suddenly dropped us down. My stomach was doing cartwheels after that experience, but I didn't get sick. We sure had some good times together that summer!

The Fair was in town-The Midway

Kels and Mike came home early from their Dad's so they were able to go on some rides at the midway. Mike went on the Star Trooper 2000 3 times in a row and ended up getting sick. Both kids went on 101 Naughts. When Mike was on the ride, a kid in the front row puked. It was so gross. I'm sure the carnies are used to that. Crystal enjoyed herself too. Kels took her on some rides that they both could go on: The Tug Boat, the Going Bananas and the Mardi Gras mirrors/climbing/slide. Crystal went on the carousel and I stood beside her. It's not a very good picture of me, but we were having lots of fun. Crystal went on a few kiddie rides by herself and had a blast. I think I'll need to save up for when they come back at stampede, because 6 rides each wasn't really enough for the kids. We enjoyed some cotton candy while we were there too. It was a good day(:

Happy 15th Birthday Kels




Wow time sure goes by fast. Next year at this time my daughter will be driving! It also has been a very busy past 2 weeks. With my son's birthday, my birthday, my mother-in law's birthday, spring break and Kels' birthday. I took Kels and her friend Helena out to see Knowing at the movie theater on Tues. On Wed. Judy and I took Kels to the play Godspell. It was great, but we didn't get home until 10:30pm. Kels and I attempted to make a home made angel food cake before bed Wed. night. Where is grandma when you need her? It turned out ok, even though it stuck to the pan. It sure tasted good. It was worth staying up until midnight on a work night. We had home made pizza's for dinner and Jones Soda. Kels had shrimp on her pizza.
