Happy Paraskevidekatraphobia Day!

Me 2007
If you have 13 letters in your name, you will have the devil's luck. (Jack the Ripper, Charles Manson, Jeffrey Dahmer, Theodore Bundy, and Albert De Salvo all have 13 letters in their names.)

Okay. So I don't have a clue who Albert De Salvo is, but he can't be a very nice guy if he's hangin' out in a clique like that.

And guess what... You might as well add 'Kelsey Johnson' to that not-so-lucky list. Great. Just great. This explains a lot.

But then I got married! And I added 'Defatte'!

Okay... So yeah... I mean, the pre-trial's set for the upcoming divorce--which some might consider bad luck--but I ain't changin' it back! So there. Bad luck gone.

How many letters are in YOUR name?

Wait. Back it up... Why is Friday the 13th unlucky? I mean, besides the 13 letters thing....

I mean, if the number 13 itself is unlucky, wouldn't any 13th day of the month be bad luck? Why Friday?

Unless... I mean, if you think about it... (And I clearly have....)

Fry Day.

And any day which announces itself as the DAY to FRY is, in and of itself, bad luck.

And let me tell you, by the end of the week, I really am quite fried. So, that explains that.

But why is 13 unlucky? I mean, it's a baker's dozen, right? And a little extra something from a baker has got to be 'lucky', right?

And, if you get an extra 'fried' donut....

See? No bad luck at all!

So....

HAPPY FRY DAY THE BAKER'S DOZEN!!!!!!

Wow. BORN on Friday the 13th?

It was probably because your mother was eating donuts that day.

Hee, hee!

Albert De Salvo
is the Boston Strangler....or at least, he was suspected to be. There's question to whether he was the "only one."

Sooo....
Were Scooby-Doo and Astro (George Jetson's dog) the same breed?

They spoke the same language.

Re: Sooo....
It's a little known fact, but true, that large cartoon dogs can speak 'human' if the letter 'r' is used in place of the first letter in the majority of the cartoon critter’s words.

Just sayin'.

The early days of dog-speak...
...had dogs answering questions like:

What's on top of your house?
Roof!

How was your day?
Ruff!


They sure have come a long way!

You just had to put those doughnuts on there, didn't you? That's probably all I'll think about until I eat two of them. I mean I'd rather eat about five, but after two I can control myself.

Well, I'd say Friday, the 13th, is actually lucky! After all, Kaelyn, Liz and I were all born on Friday, the 13th ;)

I have ten letters in my name -- 15 if you add my middle name; 14 in my maiden name. Heh.

Good luck with the pre-trial stuff -- you're in my thoughts!

Hmm. If I use my first and maiden name, I've got 13. But my middle name skews me to 16. So there's that. Also? "Jack the Ripper" isn't a real name. And the "the" should so not count. At least, those are my preliminary thoughts on the 13-letters bit . . .

Good, solid thoughts they are!

I'm counting my middle name from here on out! ;-)
