  1. (continued from previous page)
    a monday morning, and if you met a foxey woman on the road you would have bad luck.
    If the left side of your nose was itchy that is a sign that someone is talking bad about you, and if the right side is itchy some person is talking good about you.
    If the palm of your hand is itchy, that is a sign that you would get a shake hands
    If your cheek or hand is itchy it is a sign that you would get a beating
    If you break anything on a monday you will be breaking things for the week
