I have a Northfield Yankee Barlow coming in the mail today. I reckon I am in Barlow mode. While I am normally not very superstitious, recent occurrences have tended to make me that way.
Since today is Friday the 13th, I figure I might ought to be pretty careful. I might get run over by a truck !

If this becomes my last post, you'll know I did !

Yikes! I hope that doesn't happen!!

I hadn't realised it was Friday 13th, and I've already been to town and back
