I know quite a few people who lady luck has decided to abandon recently.  For several of us, this has been an extremely difficult year and we could use a change in luck to remind us why life does not have to constantly feel like someone has piled a wheelbarrow of shit on top of you and then asked you to open your mouth and eat it. 

So on this 8/8/08, I propose that we try to forget the past and keep moving forward.  While the agnostic in me knows that I am in charge of shaping my own path through life, a little change of luck certainly wouldn’t hurt.  I’m not asking to win the lottery or anything, but like if a double-cheeseburger with fries fell out of the sky and into my lap that might be a nice start.
