Black Friday, Friday the thirteenth

Black Friday, Friday the thirteenth
Today is Friday the thirteenth, Black Friday, the day when bad things are suppose to happen. So, how many of you out there will be staying home and doing nothing today or tonight out of sheer fear. Most of us will make light or laugh about it but put to the test we come up really short. For instance if you are walking on the road and there is a ladder leaned up against a building, will you walk under the ladder, or go around it. And if you do ‘tek brave heart’ and walk under it, how many of you will be sure to find some salt and throw over your shoulder, just in case. ‘Talk di truth’, many of us not doing it, yet we will boldly declare that we are not afraid and it’s just a foolish myth.
One theory is that when you believe something bad might happen you tend to get nervous. When you get nervous you are more likely to make mistakes. When you make mistakes, bad things happen. Or as we say in Jamaica, believe kill and believe cure. Anyway, what ever you do today be careful. ‘An ounce of prevention is better than a pound of cure’. ‘Walk good’.
Nuff Love

Three Ministers
Three ministers - a Presbyterian, a Methodist, and a Southern Baptist and their wives were all on a cruise together. A tidal wave came up and swamped the ship, and they all drowned. The next thing you know, they're standing before St.Peter.
As fate would have it, the first in line was the Presbyterian and his wife. St. Peter shook his head sadly and said, "I can't let you in. You were moral and upright, but you loved money too much. You loved it so much, you even married a woman named Penny."
St.Peter waved sadly, and poof! Down the chute to the 'Other Place' they went. Then came the Methodist. "Sorry, can't let you in either," said Saint Peter "You abstained from liquor and dancing and cards, but you loved food too much.
You loved food so much, you even married a woman named Candy!" Sadly, St. Peter waved again, and whang! Down the chute went the Methodists.
The Southern Baptist turned to his wife and whispered nervously, "It ain't looking good, Fanny."
