First Post Since 2005

Just thought I'd begin this post with some freaky experiment that was e-mailed to me today. If you're a math whiz, don't be like my dad and post a comment saying "oh, this isn't magic, it's just a cheap trick for the ignorant." I know that already. This is just one of those things where it's fun to be surprised. :)D (that would be the italian smiley, bon giorno.)
It's called "Chocolate Math." First, take the number of times a week that you'd like to have chocolate--this number must be more than one and less than ten. Then multiply your number by 2. Add 5 (for Sundays, right?) Now multiply the result by fifty.
Now add 1755 if you've had your birthday this year. If you haven't, add 1754. Subtract from the sum the year of your birth.
The result should be a three digit number. The digit in the hundreds place is the number of times you said you'd like some chocolate in a period of seven days. The second two numbers, if your mind has not made the freaky connection, is your age.
Pretty funny, huh?
Now, my challenge to you! My great-great-uncle lived until 105 years of age. He died in 1999. Say his corpse came back to life and did this problem. Would it somehow work? What would his final number be?
If someone posts the answer (it doesn't have to be correct, but please don't be ridiculous), I in turn will post the funniest joke I have heard in months on my blog. Believe me, when I heard it I fell out of my chair laughing and gasping.
Bon Giorno! Or however you spell it in Italian!
-Ahaneen :D

i got 610, dont ask me how, i just did.
mine worked though!!
sweet.....
I didn't bother to work it out, so I'll say you're right. I'm also not sure if you'll find this joke as funny as I did...
so there's a chicken and an egg laying in a bed. The chicken's looking pretty happy, smoking a cigar, and the egg is looking kind of downhearted.
the chicken looks contentedly at the egg and says, "Well, I guess that solves that."
took a while for me to figure out. think about the chicken-and-egg puzzle if you don't get it...
yeah i heard that.
that is quite funny actually!!
