"If it weren't for denial I wouldn't be a comedian, because to be a comedian you have to go on stage those first few years and BOMB and then walk off stage and think 'that went GREAT!' Because otherwise you'd never get onstage the next night. You would just think 'human beings don't like me.' But sometimes denial can kill you..."

You know, life wouldn't hurt so deeply if I hadn't been built to be so hopeful. ...Pessimists have it easy. And yet I wouldn't trade.

does a butterfly remember its life as a caterpillar?? can a fish cry? if a man breathed thru his ass, would swimming styles change? Would snorkelling be more/less popular??

Today is Friday the 13th. Why does that date have the connotation that it does ?
I did a little research.
It has some links to ancient myths but one author, noting that references are all but nonexistent before 1907 but frequently seen thereafter, has argued that its popularity derives from the publication that year of Thomas W. Lawson's popular novel Friday, the Thirteenth,[10] in which an unscrupulous broker takes advantage of the superstition to create a Wall Street panic on a Friday the 13th

and......

According to the Stress Management Center and Phobia Institute in Asheville, North Carolina, an estimated 17 to 21 million people in the United States are affected by a fear of this day. Some people are so paralyzed by fear that they avoid their normal routines in doing business, taking flights or even getting out of bed. "It's been estimated that [US]$800 or $900 million is lost in business on this day".

all of this means not much at all until you realise that we had friday the 13th last month also, and there will be another in november ! 3 in the one year ! Previously unheard of.
Mostly there is just 1 a year.
