A lot of people are afraid of triskaidekaphobia - at least the spelling of it. Actually, it refers to superstitions some hold about things like walking under ladders and having anything to do with the number 13. For example, they'd like to skip today - Friday, the 13th - altogether. But Becky Castor (above) of 2217 Independence exhibits some of the stuff in her street's name by celebrating her 13th birthday today with 13 young guests and all kinds of spooky objects intended to spoof the whole idea. She'll prove her point...if one of her guests doesn't break a leg, or something.
