Got through my morning shave today without any nicks today. 
I didn't realize that today was Friday the 13th until I got to work and
turned my computer on. I'm gonna be on the cautious side the rest of the day.

People fear what they don't understand and from that fear certain superstitions, have been practiced as a form of protection from these unknown fears. Although most of the superstitions from the past have since been proven by science as unnecessary, ineffective, or simply ridiculous, many are still religiously practiced today by very intelligent and sane people.

Did you know that pulling out a gray or white hair will cause ten more to grow in its place. OMG!! 


Dropping a comb while you are combing your hair is a sign of a coming disappointment. That's something most of us won't have to worry about. TG!

Not really superstitous here either...but the black cat thing is always in the back of my mind. 
It may have just been one of those things, but a story my grandmother told me once has stuck with me.

One day my grandparents and another couple were doing some traveling when a black cat crossed the road ahead of them.  You know the old tale about a black cat crosses your path means bad luck.  Well, my grandmother tried to tell my grandfather that they needed to turn and go another way...not to cross the cats path.  My grandfather always thought it was hogwash.  He proceeded forward....well within a 1/4 mile from the "cats path" a car failed to stop at a stop sign and T Boned them.   My grandmother who was sitting in back right behind my grandfather who was driving both ended up with broken arms.  She never let my grandfathe live that down...should have taken another route!....

No superstitions here........ I owned a black cat my entire childhood, then another as a young adult. EVery year I played baseball I wore number 13. I walk under ladders intentionally to watch others cringe.

Bring it on!!!!!!!!

I've been laid off twice in my adult career...both times I was wearing a blue dress shirt. Since then, I've only worn white dress shirts.

I dont like to think about the Friday 13th on days other than Friday 13th.  It was saturday the 14th and I was like hey I just realized I made it thru Friday 13th with out any incidents.....then immeditately I got a paper cut on my finger.  I couldnt believe it.  I was like Damnit!

would you like the sweet or unsweetened?

Then I'll count that as a positive thing about that day Tom!!

picked up a couple about baseball when i was coaching my son. like warhawk, i will not step on a foul line. always make a pitcher warm up throwning towards home plate. always wear a hat all season. no new one in the middle.
   knives are another one. will not close a knife that someone else opens and will always give someone a coin if they give me a knife. was told that if i didn't, it would cut the friendship.
   usually avoid goin under ladders but not really freaked out about it. i think it is more cause i was told as a kid not to do that. lol
   can't really think of any others right now.
