Superstitions

Just for the fun of it I was looking up superstitions today.
There are the common ones--like the black cat, and ladders and the mirror breaking--but i was more intrigued with the less common ones--here are few that i found interesting?!

CHILL

--If you get a chill up your back or goosebumps,

it means that someone is walking over your grave

----I am sorry--

but if you are in the grave and you are still getting a chill

--or goosebumps--

I think you have been placed there just a tad bit early....

You have got larger problems than someone just walking over you

--hopefully as they do this they will hear your screams

and get you out....ya think?

COW

---Cows lifting their tails is a sure sign that rain is coming.

---I have limited cow experience--

on the other hand my daughter has a little bit more

--but in my limited cow experience

it is not rain that you need to worry about

if they lift their tails

--atleast that is not what i call it anyway....

it is just a wee bit thicker than rain

--EWEEE

HAIR

---Pulling out a gray or white hair will cause ten more to grow in its place.

Now this is TRUE!!!

I have done this

and wouldn't you know more popped up in their place

--has nothing to do with my kids and them causing this to happen.....

Now this last one made me just laugh.

You know it was created by a bunch of men

who had been cooped up on a boat/ship to long.

They probably sat around thinking

--HMMM --

what could we do/say to get the clothes off of a woman?

--and thus a contest was created

and this was the winning entry.
A naked woman

on board a boat

is said to calm the seas.
Need i say more?
