I'm ...Wow, I had never even heard of most of those. I'm not very superstitious--I used to get mad at a friend of mine because every time she had lunch at my house, she threw salt over her shoulder after she salted her food. She thought she was being careful, but I thought she was making a mess on my floor!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8707333186803278314.post-19505842101722634232008-06-14T13:47:00.000-04:002008-06-14T13:47:00.000-04:00It's amazing how superstitious a lot of people are...It's amazing how superstitious a lot of people are. I mean there are perfectly reasonable modern folks who will avoid black cats when driving or walking, will "X" their windshield if a black cat does cross the road, avoid walking under ladders, and other goofy things.<BR/><BR/>I am not at all superstitious. In fact I can't stand such talk about "luck" and "bad luck". I shake my fist at luck!<BR/><BR/>If a black cat crosses my path, I will call to it to see if it's friendly and pet it if it is. If the best path from point A to point B is under a ladder, I'll duck as I go under. <BR/><BR/>And parents, please stop telling your children that swimming immediately after you eat will give you a cramp and cause you to drown.Josh H.https://www.blogger.com/profile/15650913001766522892noreply@blogger.com
