I've Come Out from Beneath the Safety of My Covers to Bring You This

You've got to love Howstuffworks, I mean, if you're even moderately curious about the world around you.

Today's entry focuses on Friday the 13th, its origins and myths--pretty cool stuff.

In a nutshell, having dinner with exactly 12 people is a bad idea for the media shy. Apparently, historians love to record the unfortunate things that happen at those things when a 13th person shows up. Consider yourself warned.

While we're on the subject, whenever possible, don't be the 13th person to show up for anything. Unless you truly are the devil or need the exposure.

Now, if you'll excuse me, it's back to bed.
