    I find it hilarious that in most aspects of life, wishing someone good luck is a good thing and people really appreciate the good vibes, but when I was in high school, in speech and drama you didn't wish someone luck unless you wanted your face pounded. You had to say, "Break a leg" instead. Was that just something stupid our area did or is that common in the world of performing arts? :confused:

    Theatre (spelled that way especially for Nesta :D) was my outlet in high school and it brought me out of my shell and had a huge part in creating the person I am today. I loved it. Theatre kept me from being overly emo and for that, I am grateful.

    They do that everywhere, at least here in Gringolandia.

    I do not wish people good luck, I tell them to toughen up or to make it happen.

    It is good luck to encounter nuns... but not if they are walking away from you.

    I am sure if someone did wish it and someone did break a leg, it is long healed by now. ;)

    I am rather a ditz in that if I don't notice some of the handles have not been about in a while, I usually don't see the date until long after I have posted rather OLD advice. ;)
