All hail Friday the Thirteenth, the luckiest day of the year! (now it all depends on what kind of luck you ascribe to it.) |

Born on Friday the 13th, the unluckiest day of the year, some say, and in October, home-month of All Hallows Eve (or Halloween, if you prefer) the one naturally occuring day of the year when spirits can be seen and heard for what they really are. I love it! |

There is an old saying: "It always falls to a few to be the unfortunate, the cursed, the oppresed." Personally, I never put any stock in that. This saying has been said differently more times than I can remember so chances are we've all heard it said one way or another. |

You want cryptic, Bestile1, try this on for size:

Ah, immortality, the constant dream of those who, underneath all their talk of why they wish for immortality, beneath all their noble reasonings, fear their own mortality and their inescapable death. The constant dream of fools who cannot perceive that in acheiving immortality comes, unless extreme measures are taken beforehand, a terrible consequence: Boredom. Near inescapable boredom. And in that boredom, with nothing to physically do, nothing to catch their intrest and give them reason to keep going, with even living itself becoming unintresting and repetitive, the mind begins to turn, to think, to ponder, and suddenly you realize in horror and despair that you will, in all likelihood, spend your immortality alone, bereft of companionship and love, of friends and colleagues, and until the day you finally die, for immortality is not to never die, it simply extends the deadline, you shall be left alone, bored, and for all intents and purposes, dead.

This was something I thought up quite a while ago. "...one of my more morbid of brainstorms." I believe is how I phrased it before. |

Imagine what it would be like if absolutely nothing, no matter how extreme, could not alleviate that boredom. Add to that your immortal longevity and you have one very unattractive idea. |
