HorsehairBraider Report post Posted March 14, 2009 If you are worried about bad things happening on an "unlucky" day... just try and notice other bad things that happen on other days. I don't know about you, but I can have a bad thing happen on just about any day.... does not need to be specially "unlucky". For example, last week about this time, I was stuck in MO on a highway in a storm and all about us were freaking out and causing completely unnecessary accidents. But no one was saying "Beware March 7th." Yet we spent 14 hours trying to go about 100 miles. Talk about unlucky. Sorry about your finger... but what people tend to do is remember the bad stuff, if they are told something bad is to happen on that day... and forget all the good stuff. The good stuff for me today were: a neighbor came over and had lunch with me; I had a great telephone conversation with another friend; I met two old friends, baked cookies for them and had a great visit with them; and we got snow in my area which we sorely need for water this spring. And of course the opposite is true: if you are told something good will happen, you will only remember the good stuff and completely ignore all the bad stuff. Well, it makes life exciting, right?

rhallskid Report post Posted March 14, 2009 Heh. Try driving a school bus during a full moon. Bless you Hilly, They passed out those bus driver forms to the kids to take home to their parents. My daughter was 13 hands it back and says "OH I don't think you want my mom behind the wheel of the bus unless you want the kids to learn a whole new vocabulary!" Making me sound all redneck LOL But totally the truth unless I was issued Duct Tape--forget it!! ha ha Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
whinewine Report post Posted March 14, 2009 Heh. Try driving a school bus during a full moon. Or teaching... my wife can tell when it's full moon even if it's cloudy out: the 4th graders are wacko at that time (& she doesn't have a bad class this year in comparison to some other years) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TrooperChuck Report post Posted March 14, 2009 I don't know about the Friday the 13th stuff, but the full moon thing is an absolute truth. When I was a state trooper we ALWAYS knew when it was a full moon because of the increase in weird people we had to deal with. Someone once told me that, just like the moon affects our oceans, it affects us because we're mostly water anyway. I don't know if that's true, but I do know that working a nightshift in Fairbanks was never dull when there was a full moon. I hope your finger heals quickly Josh. We're all looking forward to seeing more of your leather work. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kiwidownunder Report post Posted March 14, 2009 Yep Firday the 13th was a bad day and I do believe in that stuff. I was called " a mad person, was never any good, like talking to a brick wall ", all because they forgot to tell me that the feed had changed on one of the horses, and of course it was my fault, and got yelled and cussed at. I should have told him to just go ahead and shot me if I am that bad. But I never said one word. They get me free to cover rent 2 hours a day. That made my day that is for sure, then my car battery was flat as a pan-cake and could not do my business chores. Then, joy of joys, my laptop decided to die on me. Thank goodness for my desk top. HP are helping me, via the internet, to get it up and running again. Think it is a virus in the hard drive. Lost everything that was onit. Will have to copy the needed photos, etc from this one to CD's and reload it when it decides to return to me. ( IF IT DOES). You know everything runs in three's, don't you now. So my day was really BLACK. Things will only get better now. Kiwi Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
