Just about everyone has a favorite superstition. Whether you eat an apple a day to keep the doctor away or avoid walking under ladders, you likely have at least one you follow. If you don't, check out this site because it's bursting with them. You'll find the common bad-luck superstitions in this huge collection: breaking a mirror and opening an umbrella indoors are here. But did you know it's also bad luck to start a cruise on Friday or to say the word "pig" while at sea? Those are just a couple of the gems listed -- everything from hair to weddings to animals has a superstition attached. But don't forget the most important superstition of all: It's bad luck to be superstitious.
