Arlo and Janis by Jimmy Johnson for December 13, 2024

It’s a shallow pond

I’m lucky to have been born and raised by the parents I had for so long.

Didn’t realise before this comic, that it was friday the 13th. Good time to watch a nice horror movie tonight.

In school, Friday the 13th was always a lucky day for me. The few times there was a test on Friday the 13th I always got a 100% score. Maybe I should go buy a lottery ticket for tonight’s drawing.

It’s 4 in the morning here. It’s hardly begun for me.

On the other hand, I’ll forget that it’s Friday the 13th in probably the next ten minutes. Sometimes old age does have it’s advantages. :-P

sometimes the big picture is just that too big, little things are what make the things in your life big over time and not taking yourself too seriously helps too.

I also hadn’t realized it was Friday the 13th until reading this. However, I’m not very superstitious ;)

We did crop circles early this morning hoping people will blame the drones.

Off topic concerning “old age”… DVan Dy is 99 years old today. One of the greats from my childhood. Ohhhh Rob !

Unless you’re a member of a quasi-monastic order of knights who made the mistake of lending money to the French king and not realizing the Pope is wary of your influence, you have no reason to fear Friday the 13th.

Friday the thirteenth comes every month for me. It’s just that some months it’s on a Monday, and some months a Wednesday, and some months…

I got my first traffic citation on Friday 13, October 1961.

LOL I’m so glad I’m not superstitious. I do have fun with “jinxes” and things. For instance, I figure if I watch the Detroit Lions, they’ll lose.

Arlo and Janis’ perspective appears to be very far apart from each other….

Oh the horrors of this day. I got a paper cut, OUCH!!

Perspective…

groan… superstitious nonsense. :p

I don’t let Friday 13th worry me. My daughter was born on a Friday 13th, and I’ve never had anything bad happen on that day.

Through the 50’s and the 70’s it was less expensive to live…..

I think this means I should not have read this comic this morning, but waited until evening, but how did I know to wait?

And Friday the thirteenth falls on a Friday this month! That’s the worst! Although today is also my 10th anniversary.

Janis in the Churchy La Femme role

We’ve had it better than billions of others on this planet.

My daughter was born on the 13th. There is no way that she is unlucky. It was one luckiest days of my life, when she was born.

I remember, as a kid, being afraid of Friday 13th. Once I learned where it came from gives it new meaning.

And not being a Knight Templar had something to do with their good luck.

My ex was born on the 13th, i’ve hated that day ever since.

I didn’t realize it is Friday the 13th until I read this comic at 6 pm.

My youngest daughter was born on a Friday 13th – and on a full moon too

That would explain a lot about the problems I have been having today …

Friday the 13 is a Friday this month! I miss Pogo
