Happy Friday The 13th!!!! 


We have a great example in our own backyard, the mighty Niagara. Running water has been long seen as possessing supernatural powers, some believing it creates a magical barrier evil cannot cross. Thus you can escape from a witch by leaping a stream. Executed criminals were buried beneath running water to prevent their ghosts from walking the earth. Immersion in running water supposedly cures warts, sciatica, thrush and a host of other ailments.


Anyone have a favorite superstition?

my father in law had his right leg amputated above the knee on friday the 13th 2005 - i dont know about superstitions , but it was not a day he will forget anytime soon .


no he does not hae diabetes ,   he was being given anti high blood pressure medication when he actually has low blood pressure , which slowed blood flow every where , his foot began to die slowly , they thought it was an infection at first but when all was finished , the leg is gone -   oop s .


to add misery to misery yesterday while we were visiting the nurse came in to give him his zoomer for the pain and also an ANTI HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE PILL ! ,    i intervened , his blood pressure is still not high ,    that might have finished him off ....


he was a veteren of north africa and anzio ... in ww2
