Friday 13th

This month, there's Friday the 13th! But why do so many people think that this is the scariest day of all?

I don't know, I've never paid much attention to it. Now, Friday the 67th would scare me, I think...

IIRC, its because Phillip IV was a total d-bag and burned the Knights Templars at the stake in a money grab on a Friday the 13th.

And another one just a month after - that 28 day February is a right bastard :)

Forget the Friday the 13th franchise, I wanna see a February the 28th franchise. It would be about a very lazy serial killer named Doug who wears a basketball headband and only kills people on February 28th.

I think it's because the 13th guest at the last supper betrayed Jesus and also most accidents shown in the bible happened on fridays!

It's merely a week from today.

Thanks for reminding me. I must prepare.

I must buy a black cat. And some ladders to walk under.

Walkways are already available, fortunately.

I wish I had the confidence to leave "to walk under" out of the post.

But, over the last few weeks, my confidence in the readership has admittedly dwindled.

Perhaps some can make me believe again.

Perhaps somebody could sing "Tomorrow" and refresh my optimism.

If this month has Friday the 13th, then March too!

Oh no my friends in school...

Well, I'm looking forward to it!

I think there would be a more intense build-up of tension if he kills them on February 29th.
