Friday The 13th
Oh yeah! This Friday is a spooky one that?s for sure, Not only are we anticipating a Friday night clustered with the usual mess of driving alcoholics, raving lunatics & other pre-weekend idiocy, but we get the extra added excitement of the lucky number 13. If that isn?t enough to keep you at home behind sandbags it is also going to be a full moon and ask anyone who works in an ER what happens during full moons. Best of all this full moon in October which makes it a witching moon. Is the world going to end? I don?t think so. But I recommend to everyone, Stay Off The Road After Dark! Evil is abound.

RE: Friday The 13th
I can't believe that some hotels do not have a 13th floor. Obviously it does have a 13th floor, but they just skip the number (11, 12,14,15).

I was born on April 13th, not on a Friday. Of course, I don't consider the number unlucky, lol.

RE: Friday The 13th
Yeah - weird things happen on Fri 13th's and full moons. But that's because we expect it to. It's called "the self fullfilling prophecy".

RE: Friday The 13th
I'm keeping my fingers crossed about this one.
I'm three days late to start a hike up over 12,000 feet.
It's been snowing and we're waiting for it to stop.
If we're headed out Friday, who knows what could happen!

Nobody will hike naked!

Does it count if you run around the house naked and wish you were hiking?

Mel-have a "cold" blast. That moon will look great out there.

As bad of a run of luck as I have had in the past 9 months, I dont think there is one #&%!$ing thing that can happen today that I would call "unlucky"

Hmmm, Friday the 13th comes on a Friday this month.

I know the feeling Chili. At one point in my life I realized that every time I tried to climb out of the hole some SOB kicked me right back down. At that point I decided the hell with it, I'm just going to lay on the bottom of the hole and not even try to climb out. Strangely, at that point it all began to change. Sometimes we just fight it too hard.

I already bought the ticket. Now I need to smash a mirror and walk under a ladder, after seeing a black cat cross my path and spilling a salt cellar.

And that was with changing two colostomy bags to boot. When things look bad ya gotta grab life by the pubic hairs and yell, "I'm in charge here, not you!". LOL!

Most people killed by Jason were people having sex. So, going solo might save you.........well, unless you get handsy out there.

I'm lucky
I'm lucky
I can walk under ladders
Yes I'm so lucky
That I'm as lucky
As me

Struck it rich
Dirty rich
No work
And get richer
And the world
Loves a winner
Yes I'm so happy
That you're happy
With me

You are happy too
Ain't you baby

Numero uno
Living for
Right now
And it's
L-I-V-I-N-G
When I'm here
With you

I'm lucky
I'm lucky
I don't need a bracelet
No salt
For my shoulder
I don't own a rabbit
No clover
No heather
No wonder
I'm lucky
