How does this work?

No doubt there is some Maths whiz out there who is going to read this and issue some crushing reply that will make me feel like the O level Maths failure that I am...but...Just how does this work?  And who spends their time working these things out?


This year we will experience 4 unusual dates.... 1/1/11, 1/11/11, 11/1/11, 11/11/11 .... NOW go figure this out.... take the last 2 digits of the year you were born plus the age you will be this year and it will come to 111.

For Example: Mrs Curry Queen born in 1990 is 21 (ahem) years old.

90+21=111...How? How how how?  

Meanwhile Monsieur le Shah born in 1968 is 43 (ahem once again) years old.
68+43 = 111

I know I'm thick, but I just don't get it!  Someone put me out of my misery - pleeeeease...
