Vox Hunt: Lucky Number 7

For the 7th day of the 7th month, show us 7 of something - OR - something lucky.

It would be lucky to remember that 7 is not lucky in all cultures. In parts of China, it sounds like a vulgar word and so is very unlucky.

I'm partial to 3. :) How unlucky is 3 in some cultures?

Or Wednesday, which I'm sure is a number somewhere....

Very unlucky in the US and Britain - ever hear of "three on a match"?

Sure! "Odin's day" (or Wednesday as it is known to the unbelievers <grin>) is the third day of the week [1]. So at least you are consistent!

[1] The Christian week begins on Monday ("Moon-day") and runs through Sunday ("Sunna's day"). The Jewish week starts on Sunday and runs through Saturday ("Saturn's day"), which is the Sabbath.

I think you need to do a regular posting, where folks can ask you random questions. All that stuff in your head needs to get out and do the rest of us some good.

I still like 3 – it works for me! :)
