In the Greek world, Tuesday is considered unlucky (The Fall of Constantinople). Also unlucky in Spanish-speaking cultures, where a proverb translates as "On Tuesday, neither get married nor begin a journey." Conversely in Judaism, Tuesday is considered particularly lucky, because the paragraph about this day in Genesis contains the phrase "it was good" twice. In the Thai solar calendar, the name for Tuesday translates literally as "Ashes of the Dead".
Its a vicious cycle. I think I'll just stay home...and listen to some Lynyrd Skynyrd.
