Anyone is welcome to submit a Guest Blog Entry to torontomike.com. I received the following submission earlier today.
Every morning on my way to my 17th floor workplace, I can't help but feel that something is missing. The missing link to my journey is the elusive 13th floor. Where are all the 13th floors? Aren't we living in a modern, civilized society? Do we really build buildings and skip the 13th floor due to a silly superstition? Today is Friday the 13th, why am I even at work today? Using the same nonsensical logic, shouldn't this day be a holiday where we all hide under tables and pray that nothing bad happens? I think it's time that we grow up and realize that ladders, shattered mirrors, salt, street cracks, and unlucky numbers cannot hurt us.

Dude, I couldn't agree more. All of these silly superstitions are nothing but nonsense. It's Friday the 13th and I wouldn't hesitate to walk under a ladder while a black cat crossed my path. In fact, I'm going to go out looking for a black cat so I can prove it's not the least bit unlucky.
