It is Friday the 13th! Do you know anyone who has friggatriskaidekaphobia?
The definition of friggatriskaidekaphobia is a serious fear of Fridays that fall on the thirteenth.

Some high rise buildings go from 12 to 14 and just skip thirteen.
We make our own luck...good or bad. It is our attitude and how we respond. If you wake up with an "on no it's the 13th'' and (11 comments)

You remember what I just said about luck? Well Friday the 13th was another lucky day – and I got to spend time with a good friend. The dynamo from Arizona, Joeann Fossland, was in Baltimore for a school reunion. When I found out she was coming to town, I said "You have to come speak at my Coldwell Banker office!" Now Joeann could talk about dozens of topics, but this time it was the NAR's online e-PRO certification program aimed at helping Realtors raise their level of technology understanding and use. I took the program and got the e-PRO designation (5 comments)
