Superstitious? Not us. We have a black cat. Even got blissfully wedded on Friday the 13th, although our ex says the marriage was the worst 10 days she ever spent.

Instead, they call it the Scottish play.

Because around here they don’t pay us enough to take chances.

Let’s just say that this Shakespeare play features madness, the murder of a king, witches, ghostly visions, deceit, treachery and betrayal.
