Lack of comment doth not signify lack of comprehension.
I'm too damned old to get involved in yet another "women are the devil" conversation. Been there, done that, escaped felony conviction....
I had a lengthy and enjoyable conversation with a guy from the phone company years ago with regards to our new phone number. He asked me if the number to be assigned was "all right." "Huh?" I asked. "Why would I care?" Oh, my goodness, do some people indeed care about the numbers of their phone number. He had one customer that went through several prospective numbers before her numerologist (or whatever) signed off on it. My only request was "got anything that's easy to remember?"
The beginning of every year my kids check the calendar for Friday the 13th, because we consider it a lucky day. (A sort of "spit-in-the-eye" stubborness may be involved there.)
I do twitch when I see the number "666" and can't for the life of me figure out why. A very dear friend has it in her street address and I think of that every time I write to her.
Hollywood has screwed most of these things up. B-movies can never get what is and is not a satanic symbol right. I yell at the television a lot.
Stupidityy reigns. One of my daughters once got in trouble for the "satanic symbol" she was allegedly wearing. It was, in fact, an Egyptian ankh, the symbol of life and as "unsatanic" as one could get.
Dravyk...thanks for the history lesson.
Gosh, Catholics are...interesting.
