USA Lines: 32 Keywords: fearmongers, pattern recognition It's here again, that bizarre? day which brings bad luck to all, except apparently the badguys, who have a riotous time. What is bizarre about this day, Friday the Thirteenth? Well, for the first time in about 100000 years, there is no "Friday The 13th- part umptillion- Jason eats banana slugs " movie being released. If this leaves you feeling lost, don't worry. There's always "Return of The Dead", described as 'They're back from the grave and ready to party.' Sounds like the tech. staff at 5pm Friday the anythingth. But anyway, now to the important part: a Friday The Thirteenth Contest!! Send (US mail or Email) an account of the most unlucky thing that happened to you today to me and the most interesting (myu definition) story wins a prize to be determined later, plus the Celtic's 1989 11th round draft choice. Rules:1) all entries will be examined, but the winner will undoubtedly have been delivered with a lot of cash enclosed (anybody who can do that by unixmail is doin' good), 2) Reading this posting is not an acceptable entry, and will result in your receiving every license plate joke posted to net.bizarre or net.jokes. 3) I forget rule #3.
