okay, where did you grow up? because the only other person i've heard with that habit/superstition is my ex-wife, who grew up in north-east PA.

It's gonna be a fabulous month. ;-D

i remember hearing about it when i was in school, so it's got at least some presence in the greater boston pool of superstitions...
