Default Good luck/ Bad luck (superstions)

What are your lucky charms? Bad luck if you tell? [img]images/icons/wink.gif[/img] Woke up on the wrong side of the bed, hold your mouth a certain way, got a lucky quarter, tie your shoe laces different? Whats your charm and whats your jinx? This should be a riot. [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img]

I personally dont really have any either way, honestly. But I have to admit, I seem to be liking a certain hat more and more nowadays. [img]images/icons/wink.gif[/img]

mine, is a lucky couple of turtle necks, so ratty they are tied together with fishing line, i don't dare bring them in the house or my wife will throw them away!
My dad's (until this last spring) was an old long john suit, you know the red ones with the trap door, they finally got so bad we had to give them a final farewell, so for my mom's 50th b-day present, my dad hung them on his flag pole for the day, and then we burned them at dusk, collected the ashes and sprinkled them in the river the next morning to please the lucky fish gods! It worked, we limited out on spring kings the next morning, he won't tell me his new lucky charm, but i know he's got one!

Yeah Rick I'm sooooo cooooool that if I stuck my hand in the Columbia it would cool off the whole river [img]images/icons/rolleyes.gif[/img] Actually it's being in the right place at the right time! You guys are the ones who put me into the fish. I was named after that movie BTW 'Nooky. Hey Mark I'll bring either Howlin' Wolf or SRV on Sunday your choice.
