i read somewhere that friday the thirteenth is very unlucky cause in the olden days when people belived in witches.
Apparently whenever witches had their meeting they had them in groops of 13 that is why 13 is unlucky. Their meetings were also held on friday. so, the combination of thes two (the nuber and the day) was considered to be very unlucky indeed. =^_^=

Yep its another Friday the 13th, and I feel lucky today! Does anyone know where the myth about Friday the 13th comes from?

I believe that there was also a superstition about buildings and the floor 13. For some reason many buildings dont have a 13th floor. I dont remember why but I do remember that because no building had a 13th floor people believed that there would be a problem if a building had a 13th floor, or something like that...<P>This comes from <A HREF="http://www.urbanlegends.com..."

I don't find Friday the 13th unlucky at all. I did a play on Friday, and it's the best we'd ever done it. And a black cat crossed my path, and my friend Jason was there, and both of those are supposed to be bad luck things, so HA!
