Do you suffer from Paraskevidekatriaphobia (the fear of Friday the 13th)? If so, you're probably not even reading this; you're curled up in your warm bed with the shades drawn, refusing to go to work, eat out, even do the laundry. How many Americans actually suffer from this condition?

According to About.com, a psychotherapist named Dr. Donald Dossey concludes that the figure is as high as 21 million. That means eight percent of Americans believe that Friday the 13th is a bad, unlucky day.

I don't really believe in the whole superstitution, although one of my colleagues scraped her car today on a utility pole after a woman pulls out in front of her. Nonetheless, anything could happen, not just on this particular day.

Ever imagine what could happen? Lance Ulanoff, PC Magazine Editor of Reviews, dug real deep into his subconscious, imagining what the year 2006 could bring. For instance, Bill Gates gets his own reality show. Let's just hope he knows that Chicken of the Sea is tuna. Howard Stern could get the boot from Sirius, not because he's vulgar at times and crosses the line, but because Sirius can't afford their $500 million contract with him. And what about those eight holiday shoppers in Best Buy and Circuit City bawling like babies because they can't figure out which version of HD tech to go with--1080i, 1080p, CRT, LCD...it's too much for them to handle.

You gotta read his 2006 Year in Preview. It's just too funny...and scary!

Happy Friday the 13th!
