I attribute a rough and crazy day at work to the 13th.

However, it's not going to stop me from kayaking this afternoon! (a thunderstorm might though)

my brother-in-law told us that when his son was much younger he woke him up with the mask on and started yelling.

My brother-in-law grounded him for 3 weeks after that.
I found it to be very funny. good kid.

Treebeard, I haven't really seen any 98 Rock bumperstickers. I know that's hard to believe, they used to be everywhere. I've only seen the old worn out ones on the bumpers of old beat up vans, accompanied with a window sticker of Calvin pissing on what I presume is a Nascar number.

I always wondered if that was really supposed to be Calvin of "Calvin & Hobbes" fame. If so... Boy, did his stock go down. Is the cartoonist Bill Watterson a hick, or did he trust a licensing company that sold out to hicks?

Not Again!
Well here goes our bad luck! Several years ago my wife was leaving out the front door of our old house and she tripped on a hickory nut and took a bad spill. She cracked her ankle and it has given her trouble ever since. A year or two later while holding our young son she did the same thing, luckly no one was hurt this time. Both incidents happened on Friday the 13th! While getting out of the tub a few minutes ago she did the splits and re-injured her ankle that she just had surgery on 6 wks ago. And it happened on Friday the 13th! My late grandfather really believed in it and would get out of the bed backwards to reverse the bad luck. I'm going to try it out on my wife next time, I'll let ya'll know how it works.

Hey, it's 9:45 pm and I'm at school for our academic and sports awards ceremony. I do English and boys' and girls' rugby and my girlfriend is the official photographer. Afterwards, the admin will offer us beer, wine and sandwiches (gowan, bit˘h about the French -they/we(sortof) know how to live).

To-morrow night I'm doing security at the county fair. They hire the rugby club to do it. They say it solves two problems, sort of hiring the town gunslinger as marshall.

All together a pretty good day/weekend.

Those Calvin stickers are all bootlegs. Watterson has been prosecuteing anyone he finds out who makes them for copyright violations.

Never take Friday the 13th off!

My boss was hinting that he was gonna make me work, so I had to assure him that someone else was capable of doing my job while I was gone.

SOOO, today I spent the entire day UNdoing everything she did and REdoing it. Not fun and I have a headache!!!
