My Notes October 2024 Week 4

Yoshiharu Watanabe set a new record by growing a 63-leaf clover.

According to superstition, a five-leaf clover brings more luck than a four-leaf clover does.

By this logic, the 63-leaf clover should make him the luckiest man alive.

Shigeo Obara held the previous record with a 56-leaf clover.

Yoshiharu, 45, has been cross-pollinating clovers since 2012.

Whenever he found a 4, 5, or seven-leaf clover, he would take it home and plant it in his yard.

October 27 is Black Cat Day.

Black cats are used as symbols for Halloween and witches.

Superstition says that if a black cat crosses your path, you will have bad luck.

In some countries it is believed that black cats bring you good luck and good health.

Apollo 13 used a black cat and the number 13 on its logo.

Apolo 13 landed in the ocean on Friday the thirteenth.

“Break out in a cold sweat” means “to perspire a lot from anxiety.”

He broke out in a cold sweat when the boss asked to see him.

“Break it up” means “to end a fight.”
