May - Colorado State University Extension

EARLY RELEASE, AND
SHOW AND FAT STOCK
SALE SUBSTITUTE
SHOWMAN
Early release of any project or
entry can only be obtained for
health, 4-H or college related
reasons by written permission
of the Arkansas Valley Junior
Show Committee. Removing
livestock from fairgrounds
before release is considered an
unethical practice, with the
exception of breeding stock
which will be at the discretion
of the Superintendent involved.
If because of “health or a 4-H
related conflict”, an exhibitor is
unable to show or sell his/her
animal, another bonafide 4-H or
FFA member can substitute
with permission of the Arkansas
Valley Junior Show
Committee. College bound
students will be evaluated on a
case by case basis. All letters
must be received in the
Extension Office by 4:00 p.m.
on August 8, 2008.

READY FOR SOME FUN?
GET A CALCULATOR
READY!
YOUR AGE BY EATING OUT
Don'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 1758...; If
you haven't, add 1757.
6. Now subtract the four digit year
that you were born.
You should have a three digit
number The first 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
(2008) IT WILL EVER WORK,
SO SPREAD IT AROUND
WHILE IT LASTS
