Good luck, best of luck, lucky day, lucky duck, lucky dog, lucky devil, all the luck, with a little bit of luck, lucky charm, beginners luck, just my luck—are you seeing a pattern here? I saw a musical theme. Lots of "Lucky" song titles and song lyrics, plus a reminder or two that not all luck is good luck.
