Hmm..  My daughter was born in 2001, and she'll be 10 this year.  If you 
take "01" and add "10", you get "11", not "111".  :-)

However, there's nothing "freaky" about your math.  Take the entire 4-digit 
year of you birth, plus the age you will be this year, and it will equal... 
  wait for it...  2011.  (Isn't that sort of the definition of "age"?)
