Feel free to reply to any comment by clicking the "Reply" button.I carefully train myself to avoid them if I can, and I love to deliberately flaunt my contempt for some of them, such as doing my laundry and hanging it out on Sunday.
But in youth I did used to salute magpies, ( Ornithomancy. ) and I still do, not because I think it will alter my luck, but just because it is a fun thing to do, magpies are cute.

If you see #3 it recognizes bankers, (rich powerful), and "good" people like Kit Carson and "heroes " like Daniel Boone as being deity.
Even if you consider them "lesser" deity, they no less are considered deiry and exist. Atheism by definition and premise is that NONE exist. Atheism illogical.

I'm not sure if it's superstition or not, but I never buy more than one lottery ticket for any given drawing.
I also never change my own oil.

maybe you're saving that $ for oil changes.
@hankster It depends on how long it takes for the oil light to come on.
