Maybe I'm too curious, but often I ask myself: How old is the creator when I'm solving a puzzle.

I'm 49!

Ladies, I dont wanna harm you. Sorry!

Let's see...it's 2010 so I must be, um, 51 years old. Darn, that's old!

yeah Jan you're both old man..... jk

That's really funny. I don't think I've *ever* asked myself that while solving a puzzle.

I'm 43. I'm very happy being this age, but I liked last year, when I was 42, better--I could claim to be the answer to life, the universe, and everything! (Douglas Adams fans will get me.)

I am exactly 63.97. Now the question is, will you still love me when I'm 64? :-)

Perfect for the WCP topic, Teresa!

My mom is a youthful 64, and we sang that song to her on her last birthday.

T - November 2nd the big day then?

35 here.

Yep! Gator, you're the same age as my oldest child. Acckkk. I'm old in years, but I still feel young inside.

Jan and I are the same age and, if I remember correctly, within a few days or weeks of each other.

I have been 26 for almost 2 months now. But I feel older inside :)

Teresa, in Germany there is a song: Mit 70 hat man noch Träume. With 70 you still have dreams.

Gotta love a website that attracts the kind of people who would not only figure out their age in decimal form, but who would treat the math as a puzzle to be solved! ~looking at Teresa and Gator~

haha at comment 13

I'm 3x11.

And I will be 11x4 on my next birthday.

As I will, Liz, but in prime factors that's 11x2x2.

Or even more irrationally, she will be e^x where x ~ 3.7841896. :)

never thought this will be a topic like this.

Sorry Kai...we will try to behave.

It's unreal. Or it would be if I identified my age as -(¬/43 · i)^2.

(Sorry, Gator.)

Joe - ROFL

Sorry Kai, but with this many geeks in one place, it is inevitable.

Okay, I'll accept this.

Joe made me actually LOL. Love the geek humor. :D

On November 17, my daughter's 24th birthday, I will be twice her age!

that is easy enough for me ;-)

As my 91 year old neighbor is fond of pointing out, I'm less than half her age. This is the last year that will be a true statement.

so you're four years younger than me!

Kai=Francie+Babarann-Liz P

a nice imagination :-)

It's nice to know we can make a puzzle out of anything.

As Professor Layton would say, "Few things satisfy like a puzzle solved."

One of them, though, is making a good puzzle.

In about 10 months, I'll be as old as an LP is fast.

I'm 4!

And no I'm not excited about my age.. that's a factorial symbol haha

This year I celebrated my 35th ...
PS: I haven't celebrated every b-day.

To get my age, substract 1 from: 3 x the number you get by inversing the digits in my age.

41

I will be able to get 10% off at Walmart on Tuesdays next year!

we have no Walmart! I need another hint, Susan!

Our Walmart does not offer an age-related discount. A google search only found a report that says Walmart doesn't offer a senior discount because their prices are already discounted for everyone and they don't need to offer anything more than that.

I just found out yesterday that I qualify for the senior disocount at the grocery store. But they only offer that on the first Wednesday of every month. How crazy is that!

You are absolutely right Teresa - our Walmart doesn't offer a discount either. Their competition, where I usually shop, does however give 10% to anyone 55 or over on the first Tuesday of each month. We call it Senior's day and usually stay away that day! Now I am going to be one of them

It's late and I don't feel all that clever at the moment. I'm 56 and that's good because I got to retire last year.

i turned 49 on 10/10/10

Very cool birthday. Happy Birthday, three months late. I guess that makes it Happy Conception Day. Hehe.

haha fasstar

This September I'll celebrate the forth anniversary of my 49th birthday.

I will be 36 on 2/25/11. I'm excited to be joining the Women Over 35 demographic!

i'll be half a century old this year...

If you go by the date on my birth certificate, I'm 52. But it's a fake (I'm adopted so my real one is sealed)but it's probably accurate. If you go by how I act, I'm between my 3 year old grandaughter and my 10 year old grandson. (closer to the 3 year old)

gorgeous, Sarah!

I compute my age using hexadecimal. So I'm "43"

What an interesting forum... Im 25 but feel way older and look heaps younger (someone asked me if I was 16 today)

I'm 36, and I still have that problem! I was carded when I went to a casino last March.

People have thought I'm 35 from the time I was 17 to a couple years ago (the last time it came up). It probably is not going to be so much longer, though, as my beard is starting to get a few white hairs in it.

You probably know that my real name is Maggie. Then my oldest brother started calling me Magginni. after that, Hannah shortened the version of Magginni to just Gini (it almost seems like those names are my real names). :)

Maggie meant to put that in the nicknames topic.

i feel SOOOO old...a couple of days ago i turned 19 million minutes.

36?

that happened weeks ago teresa ;)

wow...cool to learn about the others here! I'll have to read more forum topics, I think.....

as for me, I think I'm about exactly a year older than you, Mr Bouldin, and the same age as Kristen. Turned 37 on July 8th...

Class of '93, woo! ;)

yep yep!

some of my best friends are class of '93 :)

Seems to be quite a few of us class of '93ers around here.

as a '94er, i won't hold that against you gator :)

If I said you had a beautiful body...never mind.

I might be the oldest on here? 67

You're just a baby. :)

Ah, Susan. I'm older than you, but just by a little bit.

You'd be surprised at how many of us there are here.

Anyone else willing to admit they are 65+?

Judging from some of the comments about grandchildren and being around when certain events occurred or remembered actually using items that are now considered old fashioned, I would say there are quite a few of us "old timers". :)

I can think of some interesting ways to reveal my age. In binary code, I'm 11010. I could also say I am 8.28 x pi, rounded up. (Only dealing with whole number answers.) I have as many years as half of a standard deck of cards not including the jokers. - I'd like to think I've got heart in spades, though, heh heh heh. If you subtract 45 from the number comment that this one is, you get the right answer. I suppose I could also say my age is equal to the number of letters in the alphabet. And I could be straightforward and say I'm 26, but that's boring. ^-^ :P

i get the same answer to all of those except one :)

David - same :) One of these is not like the other.

Is it the one involving pi? Did you go out more digits, and get a greater number?

Yes. 3.14 x 8.28 rounded up is 26.
3.14159265... x 8.28 rounded up is 27.
If one said "rounded to the nearest integer", then either one would be 26.

yep...it only works if you round pi to 3.1 or 3.14, but not 3 or anything longer than 3.14 :P

I don't think it works for 22/7 either.

To clarify, I entirely intended pi to only be considered to 3.14. I know the number goes on forever, but common knowledge about pi usually goes no further than 3.14. Sorry for this oversight.

Kris, dennis/dave and I are all about the same :) agewise, that is

;) @ AG

I am currently the answer to the ultimate question of life, the universe, and everything. :)

Ah, Kristen, that's a great age to be. :-)

Not drawing old age pension yet but getting closer each year

Kristen, I just caught up to you less than a week ago! Now we're the same age...unless you went all "moving target" on me?

Yay 43!

at this rate i might NEVER catch up! :(

:D

I'm just not feeling very geeky, right now. I'll just state that if you take away 46% of a century, you'll have my age...or I'm .54 of a century...or...

#54 Joe, if you happen to read this, people thought I was 26 from the time I was about 15, then when I WAS 26, I was often mistaken for a teenager. One time a parent thanked me for bringing my 12 year old to an after-game team party - thinking I was his big sister! Once I was at the store with my three kids and was asked if I was sorry summer was over and I had to go back to school, lol. Nowadays, well, I guess most often look 30-ish. The aches and pains tell a different story.

Koreen, how about "Arwen portrayer in a Roman age"?
In the past seven years I have definitely stopped looking like 35. Nor do I look like a teenager.
