More Murphy Laws
 

1.Light travels faster than sound.
This is why some people appear bright until you hear them speak.

2. Change is inevitable-- except from a vending machine.

3. Those who live by the sword get shot by those who don't.

4. Nothing is foolproof to a sufficiently talented fool.

5. The 50-50-90 rule: Anytime you have a 50-50 chance of getting something right, there's a 90% probability that you'll get it wrong.

6. If you lined up all the cars in the world end to end, someone would be stupid enough to try to pass them, on a hill, in the fog.

7. The things that come to those who wait will be the scraggly junk left by those who got there first.

8. The shin bone is a device for finding furniture in a dark room.

9. A fine is a tax for doing wrong. A tax is a fine for doing well.

10. When going to court, you are putting yourself in the hands of twelve people who weren't smart enough to get out of jury duty.

All so very, very true. :(

That's some good stuff. I like the tax and fine one. That is just SOOO true.

And bare feet also make for great furniture finding devices in well lit rooms.

And for finding thumbtacks.

And staples. And nails. Anything pointy.

Also, the first 90% of a project requires 90% of the available resources; the last 10% takes the other 90%.

They are also amazing for finding the one wet patch on a floor. Moreso when wearing socks.

Or the patch where the dog or cat puked, crapped, or peed in the middle of the night.

*sigh*

Awwwh, I ever tell ya about the time my platoon "found" a giant pool of human feces in this manner?

YEAH... Sergeant Murphy.

Yikes. Hope you weren't just wearing socks. :D
