Friday 13th
So what is big deal with Friday the 13th that have all sort of superstitious people (even airlines - no row 13) with their panties in a knot? Someone told me today it has something to do with a biblical tale from the book of Esther. I will have to look it up.
I was born on Friday 13th May some 46 years ago, so I ain't running scared........... yet. Even my 13th birthday fell on a Friday. Any funny or unlucky stories out there?

IIRC Legend has it that the Nights Templar were rounded up and murdered on friday the 13th because they posed a threat to the power of the King of france (I think it was France, like we really need another reason).
The pope stood by and did nothing because there was no financial gain in it to motivate the corrupt and evil catholic church to act. |
