What is it with the number 13?

 It is Friday the 13th and one of the buildings I needed keys for today is keyset 13. I hope my lunch isn't 13 pounds...oh and I accidentally hit a cat while driving the other day:(  had to reattach some plastic shroud to the car that the cat had dislodged....am I in trouble here? I did feel bad for the cat even though cats are not my favorite animal. I hate it when things like that happen.
 
 I am not really superstitious but I  think numbers mean something sometimes. I haven't checked my post count. I hope it isn't divisible by 13.

     If you turn the number 13 on its side it looks a little bit like an arse that fell below the pant line. I don't know if this is significant Daryl but I thought I'd throw it out there. I hope we make it until the 14th.

    Well, here's a few more things you can do to ensure a win:
     
    1) keep your fingers crossed throughout the game
    2) keep a rabbits foot (real or fake) in your pocket (shorts or socks would do)
    3) keep a cloth made doll of each one of the players on the opposing side with pins on their toes in the locker room (one for the refree as well (pin on his arm for the yellow/red card))
     
    Good luck!!
     
    HTH!

    about the post count thing.... 

    I'd be a bit worried if I was you....  181.4615385  exactly.... a coincidence?   I think not.

    In Celtic tradition 13 was not considered a problem.  I fact there was a time when if you brought a dozen bread rolls, from the Cake=Bakers you would get 13 to ensure that you where not being under sold.

    Then some religious zealots put in an appearance and said that 13 was unlucky something to do with a meal at sometime in the past.  But as continuing this would violate the TOS of this forum I will desist and rest.
