Call me a heartless bastard if you will but I think that stories like this are just hilarious:
Kuala Lumpur - A good-luck talisman worn by a Malaysian man brought him the ultimate misfortune when a lightning bolt struck the copper emblem he wore around his waist and killed him instantly, a news report said Thursday. Champee Kelean, 46, died late Wednesday while he was taking shelter under a shed during a thunderstorm in the northern state of Kedah. The bolt of lightning was believed to have been attracted by the copper talisman he wore for good luck, the Star online news portal said.It's almost as if luck doesn't even exist and is just something that humans have dreamed up to make themselves feel better about the randomness of their lives and the universe at large, huh? On a completely unrelated topic, I've come up with a fantastic new system for winning at the roulette table...

I did always wonder why rabbits-feet were considered lucky. Doesn't seem to me that it was lucky for the bunny.
And he had four of them! Hiyo! Thank you, thank you, we'll be here all week, don't forget to tip your waitress.
Those boxes in your picture are pretty awesome.
...and I need a new Brendan Fraser movie, like now.
One L, the world needs another Brendan Fraser movie like I need that last martini of the night: it might seem like a good idea at the time but once it's effects become apparent you realize that it was a bad idea and will only make you feel worse afterwords.
Glad to hear your typewritten voice around here once again, brother.
