Friday the 13th -- does anyone still care?

I mean, besides movie producers and marketers, does anyone still care about Friday the 13th?

According to some, it's unlucky because on that date the Knights Templar were raided by the King of France in 1307.

Whatever floats your boat...Maggie Q is a bit meh. Of all the TV spy actresses, I'd take Yvonne Strahovsky, Jen Garner or Peta Wilson any day.

Q looks a bit like a boy.

We went 13-0 this year. I would have to say it is a lucky number for the mighty D-Bugs!

Your idea of a "boy" and mine are somewhat different, I guess.

I had to look "Maggie Q" up. I like Asians, she looks Asian. She's OK, but not that great. I like Grace Parks, Lucy Liu, or Ziyi Zhang much more.

I also didn't know who Yvonne Strahovsky was. WOW!! Yeah, she's smokin'! Jen Garner is very pretty, and has a nice body, but she doesn't do it for me either. Peta Wilson manages to be hot despite looking like she might want to strap one on and do you back (and looking like she could do it too).

I just love it when you guys get critical of hot babes...as if any of them would spit on you if you were on fire.

That's funny..."Katie" is a cousin of Cindy's...when having lunch with her grandparents shortly after "transporter 2" was released, Grandpa said: "katie had her ass hanging out"...he didn't say that with a positive voice inflection. She has her grandma's eyes...
