   I'm not superstitious, but this is funny.  On New Years eve I went to a   
   bar, to watch some live music.  Right after midnight I saw a young blond   
   woman by herself and I said "happy new year" to her.  I was expecting a   
   simple "happy new year" in return, but instead she said "this is going   
   to be a real bad year".  I replied "why is that?".  She said "13 is a   
   very bad number".  I replied "people survived other 13 years, like   
   1913".  She replied "there was no 1913".  I laughed and said "of course   
   there was, they cant skip a year".  She insisted that there was no 1913,   
   and was real serious about it.  I could see she was drunk, and BLOND.   
   So, I just said "look up an old calendar on the internet tomorrow and I   
   bet there will be a 1913".  Then I walked away..... and laughed....   
      
   I knew at that moment why she was by herself!!!   
   Those blond jokes are not always jokes! In fact I know one who fits   
   every blond joke ever written.....
