Murphy's Law Squared, uh, to the 15th
(nablopomo day 28)
Everyone is aware of Murphy's Law, right? - "Anything that can go wrong, will go wrong."
However, are you familiar with MURPHY'S OTHER 15 LAWS...?
No? Well, never fear--I am posting them here for your enlightenment, so that your lives will improve immediately. Here they are:
MURPHY'S OTHER 15 LAWS:
1. Light travels faster than sound, this is why some people appear bright until you hear them speak.
2. A fine is a tax for doing something wrong, a tax is a fine for doing well!
3. He, who laughs last, thinks slowest.
4. A day without sunshine is like, well, night.
5. Change is inevitable, except from a vending machine.
6. Those who live by the sword get shot by those who don't.
7. Nothing is foolproof to a suffiently talented fool.
8. The 50-50 rule: anytime you have a 50-50 chance of getting something right, there's a 90% probability you'll get it wrong.
9. It is said that if you line all the cars in the world end-to-end, someone would be stupid enough to try to pass them.
10. If the shoe fits, get another just like it.
11. The things that come to those that wait, may be the things left by those who got there first.
12. Give a man a fish and he will eat for a day, teach a man to fish and he will sit in a boat all day drinking beer.
13. FLASHLIGHT: a case for holding dead batteries.
14. The shin bone is a device for finding furniture in the dark.
15. When you go into court, you are putting yourself in the hands of twelve people who weren't smart enough to get out of jury duty.
(hat tip: email forward from my wonderful mom-in-law; no clue where it originated and I'm not researching it. Wish I had thought of it myself, though, it's actually...intelligent!)
