I do not like that sort of thing. ;-)
I have enjoyed the periods of calm we've experienced. We had a long one in May and the beginning of June and another short one after Zarqawi was wasted.
P.S. You're as bad as I am - thinking my tagline will have an impact on the current activities. I am sometimes convinced that what I'm wearing will effect how my sports teams fare in pivotal games. I followed those superstitions religiously during the NLCS (Astros!) last fall. LOL
Being now in a way-too-long run of personal bad luck, I have found that if I do not watch my college f-ball team play, or even listen, it causes them to win. If I watch or listen, the opposite. I might hire myself out as an anti-jinx.
However, the only people who would pay me would be Texans fans - I *know* there must be some, there are people in the stands - and I couldn't work for that; I have a conscience. (Luv Ya Blue!)
(Should I or shouldn't I? No, you're under fire ... won't do it ... we're the Houston Oilers ... Houston Oilers ... Houston Oilers #1 - HA! Luv Ya Bum!)
