in future posts i would like to examine luck. i know that it's going to take a while for me to start writing about how fortuitous we are in everyday life, but i'd like to begin with some personal observations of daily luck and move on to how i see it affecting others. eventually i'd like to take some personal accounts and recreate them here for you.
i know you're just jiggling with excitement but i think it's a subject worth poking around in. i mean, how much do we think luck affects our lives? is there a norm for how much faith americans put into the idea of being lucky? how many different idiomatic expressions are there that include luck. like getting lucky, lucky dog, lucky! luck schmuck...etc...and last... how can i get lucky with your mom. that's the most important question. stay tuned for all the juicy details.
