I am driving to Mumbai today in the evening and for the first time with a left rear view mirror, which I got fitted today. I am not superstitious, but I always feel a slight unease prior to starting when I hear about inauspicious times or dates. Once I get started I forget all my worries and focus on the road.

13 in any form (Friday or otherwise) is lucky for me. My son was born on the 13th, too.

We have a greek with greek keyboard.

BTW, I am a positive person. I believe 14 to be lucky (our cars have only 2444) but I dont believe 13 is unlucky.

Infact I was out the whole day not knowing it until I landed on this thread.

For me 13th has always been lucky, so I prefer it. But I am indifferent to Friday the 13th, it is just another 13th.

manikjeet · 13th July 2007, 16:34

i doesn't matter to me if its a 13th and Friday

for me its just another days and after about so many days it rained here
