Ziggy by Tom Wilson & Tom II for April 10, 2023

Mondays are bad enough Ziggy. No reason to make them worse.

oh, how unfortunate

In Spanish speaking countries the bad luck day is Tuesday the 13th

It does seem that we should look into Monday the 13th.

me too shrug

Neither does Easter Sunday.

Friday the 13th also never falls on the 12th or 14th.

In all the years I worked construction, I saw more strange and just flat out weird things happen on some Monday the 13th’s by far than I ever saw on any Friday the 13th!

It’s bad luck to be superstitious

When it does, it’s much worse than a regular Friday the 13th.

Wow I never thought of that. That must be one of life’s unexplainable mysteries! Come to think of it I never noticed if Pancake Tuesday ever fell on a Monday either.

But the 13th can fall on a Monday.

Amazing, but true!

Ziggy, you are beginning to sound like Walt Kelly’s Churchy La Femme.

You’re surprised? Why? Think of the logic.

It’s surprising that his calendar doesn’t have Friday the 13th on every page.

EVERY day is just MONDAY under an assumed name. Many times in the past , and many more times in the future, this day will be a Monday over and over again.

On Monday, Zig has Friday on his Mind.

According to Churchy LaFemme, it falls on a different day every month.

It does for Garfield. It’s Monday the 13th he hates.

Yeah. Why is that? It must be some sort of conspiracy.

He’s speaking Pogo-ese?? Where’s the darn alligator?

It depends on how high the stack of torn off calendar pages is on the floor below your calendar. :)

Monday the 13th just doesn’t have the same connotation.

I’m sure Garfield feels the same way.

It depends on how hard Friday the 13th falls, and if it’s still falling when Monday rolls around.

Pogo (in the former comic strip of the same name) used to say “Friday the 13th falls on a Monday [or Thursday, or whatever] this month,” among other quotes for which he became famous.

That would actually make more sense, wouldn’t it?
