Don't forget that Bilbo accompanied the Dwarves so that he would be their 14th member. There were only 13 Dwarves.
King Friday XIII was married to Queen Saturday XIV.

The explanation I heard was that during the Middle Ages, weights & measures laws (including the standard weight of a loaf of bread) were strictly enforced so to avoid complaints a baker would give customers an extra loaf if they bought a dozen.

If you’re a biker, Friday the 13th is a great day- North America’s biggest single-day motorcycle festival is held every Friday the 13th.

Looks like today is the day that the Democrats will remember as the day they went down in history as being the biggest losers with this porkulus bill.

Very true and I think the quote below is funny.
I don't believe in astrology;
I'm a Sagitarian and we're skeptical.

Nope. Hear a lot about it. Numbers conspiracies are fun in fantasy. What drives me bonkers are people who are serious about it.

Well after reading this I would have preferred to call it friggatriskaidekaphobia. It just sounds more like a curse word to me LOL.

Well non-believer...
I put in for Friday, the 13th off, just in case. I woke up this morning to 14 in. of snow that stranded my car! Fortunately I took this day off over three weeks ago.

Another fact - the Democrats surrendered America on Friday February 13, 2009 with their porkulus bill
We're all doomed.

9. Superstitious diners in Paris can hire a quatorzieme, or professional 14th guest. Dude, how do I get this job?

Maybe that’s why nervous people don’t toss me out when I crash a party on Friday the 13th...

3. Many hospitals have no room 13, while some tall buildings skip the 13th floor. There is something the same only different in Japan.
I think the numbers 4 and 9 use the same words or sound like the words for pain and death so there would be no room "49" (painful death) but I suppose in this day and age it would make a good movie title "ROOM 49!"
There is even an alternate word for the number 4 (shi vs roku if I recall, it's margarita time and I'm on the wifi...).

And I worked on the "14th" floor of one building (of course I took the Elevator every day).
I'll send out a rock and roll PING because every year the 13th Floor Elevators get one step closer to getting inducted in the Rock and Roll Hall of fame (the first band to use the word "psychedelic" in conjunction with music, their first album was called The Psychedelic Sounds of...". Two members went of the deep end via psychedelics. Roky Erikson has managed to find his way back after 40 years. I hear Tommy Hall is still off kilter (as are members of some other "golden oldies" 60s bands).

President Franklin D. Roosevelt would not travel on the 13th day of any month and would never host 13 guests at a meal. I remember how the American Pravda media loved to play up Nancy Reagan's consultation of astrologers in setting Ronnie's schedule.
