Entry: Happy Friday the 13th!!

Happy Friday the 13th everybody! Not only is it one of the luckiest days of the year, but was one of my favorite movie series growing up.

I'll bet that not many of you know how this day came to be "unlucky". Sacrilege (sp?)!!! It's an interesting little tidbit from Catholic history. :)

Interestingly enough, way back in the day, King Phillip (who was king of France a million years ago sometime) ordered all of the Templar knights in France to be rounded up. They were all eventually executed on charges of heresy. It was a mad dash for cash. That's what the knights get for being so rich!! Kinda reminds me of the whole camel-through-needle's-eye saying. Here's the story if you're interested.
