It's Friday the 13th. And I Don't Mean the Movie.

This Friday the 13th looks to be a reboot of the original franchise, which spanned many years and too many movies to count. In the original Friday the 13th, we didn't even see Jason. Anyone remember that?

But movies aside, there are three, count 'em, three Friday the 13th days this year. Today, March and later in November. How bad is that?

Luck or no, it's already a bad year, based on the global recession, right?

Here are some examples of things you should watch out for today. Friday the 13th in and of itself is bad luck, but ...

• Walking under a ladder
• It is also believed that if you were to step on a crack, your mother would then break her back.
• Spilling salt is said to cause a fight or argument during the day
• Breaking a mirror is considered to cause 7 years of bad luck
• Black cats
• In Scotland, a storm petrel indicates someone will die soon
• A horseshoe placed above the doorway is said to collect luck when positioned upwards like a "U". In the opposite direction, it drains luck away
