    target 529

    It was so much easier to blame it on Them. It was bleakly depressing to think that They were Us. If it was Them, then nothing was anyone's fault. If it was us, what did that make Me? After all, I'm one of Us. I must be. I've certainly never thought of myself as one of Them. No one ever thinks of themselves as one of Them. We're always one of Us. It's Them that do the bad things.

    7 * 6 = 42 - 5 = 37
    900 + 37 = 937

    That's **** hard, but it shouldn't be included cause you haven't put in the 25, 50, 75 or 100

    ((2*(6+1)*7)-3)*8 = 760 for a first try.

    You don't have to include one of the large numbers ...

    (1 + 7) * 2 * 8 * 6 = 768 - 3 = 765

    Hint: it helps if you divide the number by 6

    [edit] I wasnt very clear - i mean - use (* 6) as your last operation to get 762
