Ok, so one of my friends sent me this e-mail. One of those math e-mail. This one works. Try it and let me know what happened. It will only work this year, so try it sooner than later……..
YOUR AGE BY EATING OUTDon’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 1757 …. If you haven’t, add 1756.
*
*
*
*
6. Now subtract the four digit year that you were born.
*
*
You should have a three digit number
*
*
The first two digit of this 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, it is!!!!!)
THIS IS THE ONLY YEAR (2007) IT WILL EVER WORK, SO SPREAD IT AROUND WHILE IT LASTS

Police: Virginia Tech shooter an English
Major, 23 (this is from CNN.com)

Story Highlights
• Police ID shooter as 23-year-old resident alien, English major
• Police say one of the guns recovered was used in both shooting incidents
• At least two professors among the dead in Virginia Tech massacre
• University officials say 33 dead, including gunman

BLACKSBURG, Virginia(CNN) — The gunman who killed 30 people at Virginia Tech’s Norris Hall before turning the gun on himself was student Cho Seung-hui, university police Chief Wendell Flinchum said Tuesday.
University officials said they were still trying to determine whether Cho was responsible for an earlier shooting at a dormitory that left two dead.
However, Flinchum said ballistics tests show that one of the two guns recovered at Norris Hall was used at Norris and at the dorm, both located on the 26,000-student campus. (Watch police disclose new information about the shooter 
)
Authorities are still investigating whether Cho had any accomplices in planning or executing Monday’s rampage, Col. Steven Flaherty of the Virginia State Police said.
“It certainly is reasonable for us to assume that Cho was the shooter in both places, but we don’t have the evidence to take us there at this particular point in time,” Flaherty said.
Cho, a 23-year-old South Korean and resident alien, lived at the university’s Harper Hall, Flinchum said. He was an English major, the chief said.
Cho was a loner and authorities are having a hard time finding information about him, said Harry Hincker, associate vice president for university relations.
A department of Homeland Security official said Cho came to the United States in 1992, through Detroit, Michigan. He had lawful permanent residence, via his parents, and renewed his green card in October 2003, the official said.
His residence was listed as Centreville, Virginia, a suburb of Washington, D.C.
The university and police are still in the process of releasing the names of the 32 people killed in Monday’s shootings. (Watch how some are asking why warnings weren’t issued sooner )
“What went on during that incident certainly caused tremendous chaos and panic in Norris Hall,” Flaherty said, describing how victims were found in four classrooms and in the stairwell of the school’s engineering science and mechanics building.
A doctor at a Blacksburg hospital described the injuries he saw Monday as “amazing” and the shooter as “brutal.”
“There wasn’t a shooting victim that didn’t have less than three bullet wounds in them,” said Dr. Joseph Cacioppo of Montgomery Regional Hospital.
Even among the less serious injuries, Cacioppo said, “we saw one patient that had a bullet wound to the wrist, one to the elbow and one to the thigh. We had another one with a bullet wound to the abdomen, one to the chest and one to the head.”
A source familiar with the investigation said the weapons found at Norris were a Walther .22-caliber semi-automatic and a 9 mm Glock — both with the serial numbers filed off. (Watch how quickly these guns can be fired, reloaded )
Details surface
The day’s first shooting, at the West Ambler Johnston dormitory, which houses 895 students, occurred about 7:15 a.m.
At the time of the shootings at Norris Hall, more than two hours later, police were investigating a “person of interest” in the dormitory shootings, Flinchum said Monday.
During the Tuesday news conference, Flinchum said the person of interest was an acquaintance of a woman killed at the dorm.
Steger told reporters Monday that when police responded to Norris Hall they found the front doors chained shut and the gunfire had stopped by the time they reached the second floor.
Authorities say they initially believed the dorm shooting was an “isolated incident” and were still investigating it when the slaughter occurred at Norris Hall. (Officials thought shooter had fled)
The gunman killed 31 people, including himself, and wounded 15 in Norris Hall classrooms.
Steger: Police thought dorm shooting was isolated
Steger on Tuesday defended the university response to the dorm shooting, saying police believed it to be “a domestic fight, perhaps a murder-suicide” that was contained to one dorm room. (Watch the police chief explain where bodies were found )
Police cordoned off the dorm and all residents were told about the shooting as police looked for witnesses, Steger said.
“I don’t think anyone could have predicted that another event was going to take place two hours later,” Steger said, adding that it would’ve been difficult to warn every student because most were off campus at the time. (Watch a student’s recording of police responding to loud bangs )
The gunman was dressed “almost like a Boy Scout” and wore a black ammunition vest, said a student who survived by pretending to lie dead on a classroom floor.
“He just stepped within five feet of the door and just started firing,” said Erin Sheehan. “He seemed very thorough about it, getting almost everyone down, I pretended to be dead.” (Watch student describe surviving by playing dead )
The shooter, who remained quiet throughout the rampage, came back 30 seconds after the first round of gunfire and Sheehan and her classmates tried to barricade the door with their bodies, she said.
After the shooter couldn’t get in, he began firing through the door, Sheehan said. Of the 25 students in her German class, Sheehan was one of four able to walk out on her own when police arrived. (Watch students react to shooting )
Victims’ identities being released
Courtney Dalton, an 18-year-old student who worked at West End Dining Hall, said a friend named Ryan Clark was one of the two dormitory victims.
Clark, a resident assistant at West Ambler Johnston Hall, had once worked at the cafeteria serving pizza. Sobbing, she described Clark “a happy person.”
As of early Tuesday, the identities of four other victims had been released: professor G.V. Loganathan, professor Liviu Librescu, student Ross Alameddine of Saugus, Massachusetts, and student Matthew La Porte of Dumont, New Jersey. (Full story)
The university has scheduled a convocation for 2 p.m. ET Tuesday. President Bush and the first lady are scheduled to attend.
Classes have been canceled for the rest of the week, and Norris Hall will be closed for the remainder of the semester, Steger said. Student Emily Alderman said students were sending out instant messages urging each other to wear their Virginia Tech Hokie gear in a sign of unity.
There have been two bomb threats at the university this month, the latest of which came Friday. Flinchum said Tuesday they were unrelated to the shootings. (Watch gunfire on the campus )
Last August, the first day of class was cut short at Virginia Tech by a manhunt for an escaped prisoner accused of killing a Blacksburg hospital security guard and a sheriff’s deputy.
Before Monday, the deadliest mass shooting in the United States occurred in 1991, when George Hennard drove a pickup truck into a Killeen, Texas, cafeteria and fatally shot 23 people, before shooting and killing himself.

Spring and Summer Feet Tuesday, Apr 17 2007
Everyday 2:22 pm
Every year I get this e-mail for either my mother or my sister. It’s one that every “PERSON”, not just the members of the Cute Girl Sisterhood should think about
Alright ladies, it’s that time of year once again!!! I think we need to be reminded of a few things. So my sisters, PLEASE, raise your big toes and repeat after me below…
The Open Toed Shoe Pledge As a member of the Cute Girl Sisterhood, I pledge to follow the Rules when wearing sandals and other open-toe shoes:
I promise to always wear sandals that fit. My toes will not hang overand touch the ground, nor will my heels spill over the backs. And the sides and tops of my feet will not pudge out between the straps.
I will go polish-free or vow to keep the polish fresh, intact and chip-free. I will not cheat and just touch up my big toe.
I will sand down any mounds of skin before they turn hard and yellow.
I will shave the hairs off my big toe.
I won’t wear pantyhose even if my misinformed girlfriend, coworker, mother, sister tells me the toe seam really will stay under my toes if I tuck it there. If a strap breaks, I won’t duct-tape, pin, glue or tuck it back into place hoping it will stay put.
I will get my shoe fixed or toss it.
I will not live in corn denial; rather I will lean on my good friend Dr. Scholl’s if my feet need him. I will resist the urge to buy jelly shoes at Payless for the low, low price of $4.99 even if my feet are small enough to fit into the kids’ sizes. This is out of concern for my safety, and the safety of others. No one can walk properly when standing in a pool of sweat and I would hate to take someone down with me as I fall and break my ankle.
I will take my toe ring off toward the end of the day if my toes swell and begin to look like Vienna sausages.
I will be brutally honest with my girlfriend/sister/coworker when she asks me if her feet are too ugly to wear sandals. Someone has to tell her that her toes are as long as my fingers and no sandal makes creepy feet look good.
I will promise if I wear flip flops that I will ensure that they actually flip and flop, making the correct noise while walking and I will swear NOT to slide or drag my feet while wearing them.
I will promise to go to my local nail salon at least once per season and have a real pedicure (they are about $15 or 20 and worth EVERY penny).
I will promise to throw away any white/off-white sandals that show signs of wear… nothing is tackier than dirty white sandals.
Support Drive-ins Friday, Apr 13 2007
Everyday 8:10 pm
For as long as I can remember I have had a love for “Going to the Movies”. I go to the theater at least once a weekend. The one thing I’ve wanted to do more than anything was go to the “Drive-in”. but growing up in New York city, that just wasn’t a possibility. Even when I moved to Maryland, I didn’t think I was going to find one until about 3 years ago. A guy I was dating at the time introduced me to Bengies Drive-In Theatre http://www.bengies.com/ here in Baltimore. I’ve been hooked every since. Excellent service quality and food. Please check them out. They have the largest screen on the east coast. Help save the drive-ins! Everyone should go to one at least once!
A New Type of Excerise Class, the men will love!!!! Wednesday, Apr 4 2007
Everyday 1:30 pm
This past Saturday I went to the best “Girl’s Night” birthday party (HAPPY BIRTHDAY A) ever. The birthday girl had a Exotic chair and pole dancing class at Xpose Fitness in Owings Mills, MD. Check out the website: http://www.xposefitness.com/index.shtml .
The party started with required forms to be fill out and the best lemon cupcakes ever (Thank, N). Next we each had to pick out a stripper name for the evening. Mine was “Envy”. I can just see my alter ego walking down the catwalk now. 
First up, the exotic chair class. Which when you first see it you think this going to be easy. WRONG, this was a very good all around workout. You were so busy laughing at the funny names, and dancing to a good mix tape, that you don’t even notice the work out that your getting. By the end the muscules in my arms and legs felt a little tight from moves like “Put the goods in his face”.
Next, we were off to Pole Dancing. There were about 20 real stripper poles all equally spread out in this one studio. The instructor showed us how to do swings, kicks, and how to jump up on the pole, then slide down really slow. Then we each got to play on the poles doing what ever we wanted. I have to admit, this was soo much fun, but again my muscles were tight.
By the end of the class we were off for a late dinner and drinks, talking about taking more classes. I can’t wait!

What will they think of next? Wednesday, Apr 4 2007
Everyday 12:49 pm
I receive daily newsletter e-mails from a site called DailyCandy www.dailycandy.com . They send you all the last information about the chic and upcoming things happening in your city and around the world. You know, the new boutiques, the latest it products, the latest restaurants, bars that sort of thing. I received this e-mail from them and had to share. It’s about this new product that make the say “My sh*t smells like roses come true”. I couldn’t help think…. What will they think of NEXT? lol
“April 4, 2007Holy Crap
Every morning when you wake up at your beau’s …
You say: “Want me to run and get us some coffee?”
You think: I must get to a Starbucks loo stat.
He says: “Aw, thanks, baby, I’d love a latte.”
He thinks: Why won’t this chick poop in my john?
You’ll overcome your bathroom shyness with the Breeza, a deodorizing toilet seat. The four-stage process removes 95.8 percent of bathroom odors. (And with a number that specific, you know it’s scientifically tested.)
First the sensor tells the seat you’ve plopped down. Next a super-quiet fan sucks up the stink and sends it through a carbonated filter. Finally the clean air passes through a replaceable fragrance vent and comes back out smelling like roses or at least not like caca).
The Breeza also comes in a warm version with three temperature settings, so you can warm your buns while you drop off the kids.
Doodie’s calling.
