Morning Audibles 8.13.10 - Hindenburg Omen Triggered

"Oh the humanity!"

OK - So lets pause and reflect here for a second...


- On July 30-Aug 1st we had the "Cardinal Cross"
- On August 11th*/12th we have a confirmed "Hindenberg Omen" (more later)
- Today is Friday the 13th


Are we, like, seriously screwed or what?


First, the Hindenburg...(read up because even though I might be stupid, I'm not THAT stupid as to make comical annotations on harbingers of doom)... At least I give them a wide berth...

Whether you're superstitious or not... Here's what ACTUALLY happens when you CROSS a CARDINAL

August 10, 2010 - Reds vs. Cardinals

As for Friday the 13th?

Look - Jason is handy with the POLEAXE too...

I don't know people, do what you want... Go long, Go short... Go TO SLEEP...

Better not heed that last advice...


OK... I'll cut the crap and get to the real anthology of drama...

Oh... Let's just get it all over with at once, shall we?

 With a little music to go along with it...

 Way to go Stevie... Way to scare the hell out of all the young SESAME STREET viewers - lol
