Curious Goods


Friday the 13th (of any month) has to be one of my favorite days of the entire year. Along with the fact the I personally always purchase a lottery ticket, it always reminds me of one of my most favorite television programs - Friday the 13th: The Series.

Basically, if you don’t remember the show, two cousins take over their now dead uncles antique shop (Curious Goods) and, with the help of their uncles partner, Jack, try to recover all of the cursed items that he sold to people over the years.

This program had some really good cursed item concepts, some really great stories, and pretty darn good acting for television. Oh, for the record, and contrary to popular belief, the fact that Micki was a hot red head had absolutely nothing to do with my watching the show!

Yes... Friday the 13th IS indeed a lucky day. I was just outside and spied a $1 bill blowing along the parking lot. So, the funding for my lottery ticket has been provided.

Never saw the series, but sounds interesting. What year was it running?

It's a Power Ball ticket, Dodo, so I won't know until late tonight.

Winter, that show ran for three seasons starting in '87.

[Innocent Face Mode On] But... But... Slacker... Really, I only watched because of the good story line... [Innocent Face Mode Off]

Don't worry, Dodo... If nothing else it'll be new computers for everyone! :)

Update on ticket status... Didn't hit a single number. But, it was still a lucky day as I'm not out any funds for the ticket.
