So, its a "gulley washer" and another severe T-storm in-bound. 1.89" since it started about 3-4AM.
heres the story behind my "Lucky #13".
Trouble, was his nickname in college(and boy did he earn it). He had a jersey that was green and white with "Lucky #13" on it. His test taking shirt that he only & always wore on test days. He said its always been good for him. (giggles)
So, the spring semester when he wore it a few times I asked him about why and he broke out with details from the bible. He said, you know how 6 is well established as the "number of the beast" aka the devil, and a bad number? And you know how 7 is the good number as in forgive 7 times 7 story. I was thinking, yeah - okay so,where ya going.
He laughed and said simple math.
The bible has ying and yang in it with 6 & 7. They are together in balance.
so 6 + 7 = 13 Thus its a true balance having 13 as the lucky number. I giggled and thought more about how stigma, F.E.A.R. & ignorance have done so much damage to our culture and still does. So after that i started to think of it as a good thing and not long after that I decided to place it as a "lucky number" for me as well.
That was back around 1996-1999 in college dorm life for me.
This one neat little bit of math still makes me smile every time i think of it.
