Now, if it was white leopards...; June 1, 2008 at 10:03 a.m.
Mitzi said...: lol I know, it's ridiculous! and yes, I was the first to say it last night at 12:07. Also when I see a single magpie I have to greet it with a cheery "Hello Darling" My mother won't say the word "Rat" instead she calls them "Long-tails" It's true! I'm living for the day she has a rat infestation and informs pest control that she has "Long tails" in the house! I'd love to be a fly on the wall if that happened!; June 1, 2008 at 10:42 a.m.
Sean Newbury said...: Actually now that Blogger allows you to schedule posts I made this particular post on Friday around 10 pm. So HA!. That said I WAS up at midnight and did watch as the post went live. (I live a scintillating life, no?)

And Thanks Mitz... all I need are MORE superstitions... I'll be hooked on the magpie greeting in a week... but do you only greet them when they are solo or do you also greet groups?... I'd hate to faux pas on this...

As for the 'long tails', for some reason I just can't go there, A) because I had once in my early 20's a pet cream coloured rat named Nicodemus, and B) I think, just maybe that your mother is nutters :-); June 1, 2008 at 11:54 a.m.
Angry Gnome said...: Oooh, bunnies. Now, if you can only tell me how to make them then all would be dandy in the world. ;); June 1, 2008 at 1:26 p.m.

Mitzi said...: Here is a little rhyme to help:

One for sorrow,
Two for joy,
Three for a girl,
Four for a boy,
Five for silver,
Six for gold,
Seven for a secret never to be told

Magpies mate for life. The pair will stay together through thick and thin and where you see one, you'll nearly always see the other nearby. However, if you don't see the other nearby it must mean that something nasty has happened to it. So, to ward off bad luck you have to greet it.

Yes, mother and I are quite mad dear!; June 1, 2008 at 7:20 p.m.
