This year we will experience four unusual dates 1/1/11, 1/11/11, 11/1/11, & 11/11/11.. NOW take the LAST two digits of the year you were born & add the age you'll be this year it SHOULD add up to 111 How strange is that??

My daughter put it on facebook.

My mum will love that one. ;)

Her favourite is:

Say you were born in '50 and your mum was born in '25.

In 1975, you'll were 25, and she was 50.

My mum got a kick out of that during the several years she could play it with us kids, back in the last century.

Well ... if you took the year you were born and added it to the age you were last year, it would add up to 110. ;)

It's kinda how birthdays work --

born '50
+ age 40 in '90
= 90

;)


Of course, it will all work for only one more year after this one ... because when 2012 ends, we'll all be raptured!!

bwahahaha
