Triskaidekaphobia
Today isn't quite the Ides, but 13s have their own special lore and even a word of their own (see title). Today is the birthday of L. Ron Hubbard in 1911 and William Casey in 1913, and Terence Tao, an expert on prime numbers, is profiled in today's NYT. Hmm. Scientology . . . the CIA . . . 11 and 13 on a 13. I bet we could make something of this if we tried just a little.

Cool info! My birthday is on July 13th and my husband's is on May 13th. We wanted to get married on June 13th, but we had to settle for the 12th.

Barb, that's fantastic! My birthday is on February 13th and one of my good friends is October 13th. We're all triskaidekaphiles, apparently!
