the 13. Does anyone have issues with this date.

Years ago I worked with a guy who took every Friday the 13 off from work because he had gotten a speeding ticket on that day.

Just another day to me.
 
It's against my religion to be superstitious. :eek: But having said that....a few minutes ago I walked into my employee's office and told her it was Friday the 13th!
 
No worrys here mate! My tinfoil hat not only stops the voice's, it also blocks out the evil bad luck waves!
 
It's just there so they could make all those movies about it in the '80s that won all the Academy Awards.:D

Grab your favorite hockey mask and let's go slash some teenaged fornicators!

Nah, it's just another day. My daughter had a birthday fall on a Friday once, so we had the whole bad luck theme for a party. broken mirrors , black cats, ladders in the doorways, etc. Was fun!

Mr. Wrench worked with a guy who was very superstitious. Always took Fri 13 off. This is the same guy over 300 lbs, 6 and a half feet tall, who does not come to our house anymore because I have a black cat, he is scared of both my cats.
 
FWIW, I learned the word, triskadecaphobia (sp?), from a Charlie Brown show.

capt., I've gotta find a few cats like that!

The only time something bad ever happened to me on Friday the 13th was back in 1973. I had just received my new Dodge Challenger Rally Sport after a 6 week wait .The car was 3 day's old and I just finished waxing it and was going to visit my girl friend on her dinner break at the bank she worked at. I was the first car at a trafic light there was a cop right there and I heard tire's screeching and a drunk driver hit me on the driver side from the front to back. The drunk kept going but the cop got his marker# and they got him a hour latter but he had no insuranse. The car was never fixed to my liking and I sold it after a year and a half. I should have kept the car and gotten rid of the girlfriend.;)
 
I ain't saying it's a good luck day or a bad luck day....but 48 years ago, I was married on a Friday the 13th....:D
 
I bought a Pack of cheap allen wrenches yesterday (Friday the 13th) with tax they cost $6.66. One of our ambulances caught on fire three days ago. The mileage was 666.
 
my dad was born on friday the 13th weighed 13 pounds! my grandmaw was a little lady, i dont see how she made it this was in 1939, not a good day for her
 
My dear old Dad was born on Friday the 13th. He'll be 88 this September. My business partner was married on Friday the 13th. He's been married for over 25 years. I like 'em!
 
I used to work with a girl/lady who's Bday was the 13th of May. I introduced her to a friend. They've been married 19 years now. I'll have to check with him to see if its bad luck or not! Oh, and last year on her Bday I brought her a cake. I put 144 candles on it...one for each year? :) Then I retired so she couldn't get even. :)
 
Most people cant tell you what day of the week they were born on.My Dad and my Wire can.
Ask anyone who's birthday falls on the 13th. and they will answer very quick,I guess they are way ahead of the question.

I never asked what day of the week mine was because there is nothing special about it.

But it is kinda funny that my wife and father are 30 years apart to the day and this is the was the first Friday 13 Birthday together for them.Plus 80 and 50 year celebrations.

Everybody survived,
 
I did the same thing as ohiobuckeye and got hitched on Friday the 13th. Best thing that ever happened to me.
