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.

Friday the 13th...its just like any other day. But two things which come to my mind is Jason and Black Sabbath.

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.
