Among the items that that I want to throw away is my old copy of Sports Illustrated, which I finished reading two days ago. But the problem is the cover:
So, if I toss it in a foreign dumpster is that bad luck? I wouldn't have to ask if it were the Eagles (because under pro football rules it clearly would be a jinx) but with college rules I'm never sure...
By the way, there's a big old Michican flag on the wall in the building I stayed in last night. That has to be bad luck.

Perhaps you can just tear out all the pages that don't have to do with Ohio State? That would reduce the weight a bit.
Then again, you could just post them all over that Michigan flag, if you're still nearby.
Lastly, I have heard that burning the magazine will avoid any curse possiblity. So long as you do it in a reverent manner as when you burn your palm from Palm Sunday.
I don't have an answer for these kind of questions. Don't you have any nutrition questions so that I can look smart?
Miss you!
If I treat it like a religious object, aren't I risking divine bad luck?
I had a kiwi fruit and carrots with lunch today, mom. I'm eating well. I could use some goldfish, though.
Live goldfish? Peppridge Farm Goldfish (no nutrition there!) Am glad that you are eating well. That's all I think about, how other people eat!!!
Love you.
Hey Capt'n, I think I have a solution. Find a soldier who is an Ohio state fan and give it to him. Tell him he must pass it on to another fan, etc. I think "spreading the word" this way is actually good luck.
Now I have a delema. For my work fantasy football team, someone has said that if I get any cowboys, he will make me a good trade. Do I defile my team, even if only a day or two and possibly get a good player in a trade. Or, do I just exclude the cowboys and miss the chance? All comments are solicited.
to be honest, i thought your dilemma was going to be how gaytarded you'd look if someone saw you with a mag cover like that...
then i feared you didn't want to part with it b/c of how gaytarded the guys on the cover looked.
glad to know you're just being dumb (i mean superstitious). it might be good to hold on to, though... what if you run out of tp?
hey cpt awesome, if your travels take you through the green zone leave the mag at the embassy or regional security office with someone trustworthy. i'll be through on Weds (27th?) next week and will be happy to pick it up. one of our interns is a senior at OSU and I'll have her carry it back to the Kaaba at the shoe or something. :)
I knew I should have left it there, but they were all Michigan fans...
Leo,
As a proud, well-hated Buckeye, allow me to reassure you that a lost SI won't promote bad karma. The Animal, Boeckman and Beanie can handle the heat, I'm sure. However, that flag was your tp option, kiddo.
xo!
