Talk about a snack that's spelled eternal heartburn, even in Disney films. What fruit knocked out Snow White? Right. The apple.
About 90 percent of Otis elevators don't have a button for the 13th floor. The U.S. Navy won't launch a ship on Friday the 13th.
Ok back to me. No more article stuff. Today is also the official launch of my children caught in crossfire foundation. By creating this tiny organization I hope to encourage others to help the needy out there.
