What do you think of the number 29?

Hi No Time--I think one of the reasons the number 13 is considered unlucky is that there were 13 people at the Last Supper (12 Apostles and Jesus=13) and it was on a Friday that Jesus was betrayed by Judas (if I am remembering my Cathecism correctly) so 13 is "unlucky" and Friday the 13 is very unlucky--but only if you believe in those sorts of things. It's superstition. Like fearing black cats or saying "seven years bad luck" if you break a mirror.
