I almost ran over a black cat this morning on the way to work... uh oh busted, i AM at work. ANyways, I keep a tiny calender stuck to my cigarrette lighter, and i glanced down and noticed it was friday the 13th, when i looked up the cat was darting across the road. Kind of weird huh

This is usually my lucky day so I expect to go home and find the UPS man finally dropped off the rest of my conversion parts and that the there is a million dollars in the mail.

I had my bad luck on my birthday this past Monday. Taking a shower and suddenly, no water. Oh, oh! Well pump died.

Actually friday the 13th is usually the best day for me. It's Thursday the 12th where everything goes wrong. transmission in wifes Dodge minivan, clutch in my truck, injector pump in sons truck and my new (85 hours)horizontal directional drilling machine is at the dealer for an engine under warranty. I'll tahe the 13th anyday. :{

Not a good day for my girlfriend's mother. She had a stroke (we think) and fell face first down to the floor. Bruised up kinda' bad and a split lip requiring stitches. She is 80 though but we are all kinda shook up. Not a good day but I honestly believe that today being the 13th is only a co-incidence.

 

[Camara]

Hope she does OK recovering. Both my parents have had heart attacks and strokes. My dad had quadruple bypass and stints. At the time he was only 64.

Sorry to read of your girlfriend's mother Frank. I agree though, the date is only coincidence. Superstition is for people who can't face reality.

 

[fkovalski]

Steve- Thanks for your kind thoughts... we'll just have to hope for the best.

Superstition: one of my favorite lines is from the movie "Apollo 13" where Tom Hanks playing astronaut Jim Lovell says about the number 13... . "it comes after 12. "

I just thank my lucky stars that I am not superstitious!

 

[dpuckett]

Well, didnt get arrested. truck stayed together. horses and cattle all had a leg under each corner. Havent seen the old man's obit from the Nazi county, so I guess it isnt my LUCKY day, but it wasnt too terribly unlucky, either. Oh, i had about a dozen black cats pass in my path 13 or so times. Friend needs to do some thinning of the feline herd on his farm.

4 people killed this morning on the freeway, stupid racers got an innocent life, but three of them burned to death. Not a good morning here.

I was on the road, so I completely forgot about being the 13th on Friday.

It was a bad Friday the 13th for someone here. Right out in front of my work (at the Sea-Tac Int'l Airport) someone in a Ford Explorer blasted through a stop sign and broadsided a sub-compact right on the driver's door. Rumor has it that someone was killed. The speed limit is 30 mph, but the Explorer had to be going a lot faster.
