Triskaidekaphobia means fear of the number 13. Paraskevidekatriaphobia means fear of Friday the 13th (which occurs one to three times a year). In Italy, 17 is considered an unlucky number. In Japan, 4 is considered an unlucky number.

Also, the edge of the green in golf is not the "fringe" but the "apron". Trivial Pursuit taught me that.

Speaking of Braille, my father in law was principal of The Missouri School for the Blind for many years.

THEY CAN"T SEE SIGN LANGUAGE...lol If he had a nickel for every time he was asked that he would have retired a few years earlier:) |
However, Helen Keller was blind and also deaf. She learned to communicate with sign language. It was the only way "hear".
To communicate you signed in her hands, and she would read your signing by feeling the position of your fingers.

We have clocks and telephones, and the bed is made.
We have walls and a window and shoes for the feet to fall into.
We have birthdays and dinner and wives who have husbands.
We have friends and automobiles and a pet.
We have spoons and three wishes we have.
We have what we have and we shall wish for something
We do not yet have, we wish and wish and then,
When he have but one wish left
We have something. We have so nearly everything
We have nothing, we have nothing we can, we can think of.
We have nothing when we can think of nothing.
We have something when we can think of nothing more.
We have something when we can think of nothing we want so bad
That we do not ask. We do not need to
Ask or want when we do not miss
Having and caressing and owning a thing of great beauty.
We have what we are what we do with any wonderful thing.
We have measure and words and a place to sleep.
We have what we hold which is a marvellous thing.
We have this great yearning.

did you know that on you computers cd/dvd drawer there is a little hole.
If you stick a needle in it, it will open your tray.
SO, if you cant open the drawer by pressing the eject button, do that |
