I drive a '92 Chevy half ton. Yes, it's an old truck now, but very reliable. Been driving it for about seven years, trouble free. It's basically just our back up system. My wife drives the '09 Malibu.
But today, for the first time ever, I turned the key to fire it up, and you guessed it... nothing, dead, not even a click. Friday the 13th?
No, not for a second do I believe that nonsense. Just coincidence.
Friday the 13th is possibly 'the most widespread superstition' out there. There's no question about that.
In the US alone, it is estimated that $800 million to $900 million is lost in business every Friday the 13th, because of fears of the doomed day. Some people and companies, just won't do business deals on that day. Can you believe that?
But is there really a reason to be so uneasy or even fearful about something that might happen on a day that's
technically just like any other? Of course not. You can
pick out any date on the calendar or any day in history and find some
weird stuff that’s happened.
Many people think that Friday the 13th is
either a good luck day or a day where people tend to have bad luck. It
depends who you are but, nothing particular happens on Friday the 13th.
Today could have been Tuesday the 13th, and my truck still would not have started. And does anybody even care? I doubt it.
Anyway, don't be 'Afraid'... to have a nice day.
