the comic B.C., which I usually enjoy, ran the expected september 11th strip today. The little ant asked his father if the numbers 7 and 11 were lucky, and then his dad pointed out the dates 12/7 and 9/11 as being unlucky, and it made me upset, because december 7th is my birthday, and today is the birthday of a friend of mine, and to have your date of birth declared to be an unlucky day, no matter the events beyond your control is not a pleasing thing.

That being said, today is also Grandparents' Day. Go hug your granny and your grandpa.
