OOPS.
Just refigured...and you were correct, Libhater.
Nice to know you got something like this correct.

Ask your mom.85 minus your age plus 40 will give you the year you were born
Did it work?
Ask your mom.
Or is she not sure in your case?
I like little tricks like this. But I already knew what year I was born.
But she doesn't know what year you were born?My mother just turned 100 today and she's still got more political intellect than most
of you on the left since she's always been a loyal, confident and intelligent Conservative.
She never did like Creeptions.
But she doesn't know what year you were born?
Yes, you did, Lib.Should be no surprise that I got this correct since in an earlier post I mentioned that I
get everything correct. BTW, are you the person that says he's 89 years of age? If so,
I took that 89 and I subtracted it from the original 85 and I came up with a -4. So then,
instead of adding 40 to it I subtracted the -4 from the 40 leaving it with 36. Which the
year 1936 would have been the year that you were born, if indeed you are 89 years old.
Did I get that correct?
Yes, you did, Lib.
I was born in 1936. I can easily remember the war years...with the precautions and rationing restrictions we all endured. I remember the end of the war very clearly. My mother had taken my brother and me to a movie (A Tree Grows in Brooklyn) and the movie was halted mid-film...and an announcement was made. The theater emptied...and when we went outside, the streets were filled with people yelling and cheering. It was VE Day.
Not sure where all the years have gone, but they have gone there quickly.
I know full well what you're talking about when you say where have all the years gone so quickly.
I'm 76 and I became a teenager the day after JFK was assassinated. I remember watching
the horrific event on the TV. My favorite Democrat president has always been JFK.
Happy belated birthday, Lib.
I too had a birthday on a bad event day. On my ninth birthday, we dropped an atomic bomb on Nagasaki, Japan. It ended a horrible war in the Pacific and probably had to be done. But for humanity in general, it and its brother of three days earlier, were a horror...and perhaps a harbinger for more to come.
I hope that never happens...that we finally become the intelligent species we suppose we are.
