I keep reading a bunch of stuff about there possibly being another terrorist attack today. It would make sense, with Al Qaeda being obsessed with specific dates or something, but I doubt there really will be one. Hope I'm not proven wrong.

Many early cultures considered 13 to a lucky number, because the Moon shows 13 cycles per year. Of course, the early Catholic church reversed this to help supress "pagan" beliefs. The Vikings, for instance, thought so well of 13 that they would say "thirteen and also three" instead of "sixteen".

Perhaps today is a bad day, Perhaps Co2 emissions doubled today and were closer to 'the end of the world as we know it'

I had an invite to see that movie for free and that but let me just say a) it looks scary and b) I have had enough 'dealings' with satan for now. Watching his 'son' is not an experience I intend to do.... Did I also mention that it looks scary ?

Yeh, I wasn't nervous at all.....I think people are letting superstition guide them.....but that's just my opinion.

I'm a little surprised that I really was wrong and that there was no terrorist attack. I was almost expecting it and I even had the news on all day. Not disappointed, just surprised.
