Luck as a skillset.

I never considered myself lucky but many others did. We all have luck, good and bad. We can focus on the good luck or we can focus on the bad luck. Some are convinced they have the bad luck from hell! Over time it becomes true.

My grandmother always patronized church events. She bought food at the outdoor events but told us to check our sandwiches, she always got bugs in hers. She had bought six or eight sandwiches for the family and we grabbed at random. As everyone has guessed by now, everyone's was fine except Gramma's, it had a huge caterpillar in it. She was so used to it she just flicked it off and kept eating.

I have participated in hundreds of raffles. After half a lifetime I finally won something of small value, less than a hundred dollars. I knew someone that had won two new pick-up trucks about six or eight years apart. Wouldn't surprise me if we bumped into each other and I learned he had won one or two more.

Some people the gods smile on, some they laugh at!

2026 Reyes Cup - October 15-18

Half an hour in and we've already heard three different pronunciations of Januarta.

Phonetically:

1. The red headed WNT event hostess, whose name I don't know, went with Jan-u-arta. So did Scott Frost.
2. The ring announcer went with: Han-u-arta
3. Karl Boyes went with Yan-u-arta

Wonder who's right. Maybe they should ask Januarta.
