veryone knows Murphy's Law: "Anything that can go wrong, will go wrong..." -
Here are some other Laws you may not have heard of, including some I made up myself:



Andy’s Law of Nature’s Call: The filthier your hands are, the stronger the need to go to the bathroom will be.

Andy’s Law of Fasteners: The more inaccessible the location of a bolt or nut, the more “boogered up” the threads will be.

Andy’s Law of the Shop Phone: The phone will only ring after you have begun to apply a fast curing adhesive, sealant, or epoxy.

Andy’s Law of Arachnophobia: The more intricate, involved, and delicate the task, the bigger the spider will be that you suddenly notice is very near you.

Lorenz's Law of Mechanical Repair: Your nose will begin to itch after your hands become coated with grease.

Anthony's Law of the Workshop: Any tool, when dropped, will roll to the least accessible location.

Lowery's Law of Home Repair: If it jams, force it. If it breaks, it needed replacing anyway.

Beach's Law: Interchangeable parts aren't.

Tussman's Law: Nothing is as inevitable as a mistake whose time has come.

William's Law: There is no mechanical problem so difficult that it cannot be solved by brute strength and ignorance.

Lane's Law of Supply and Demand: The one item you need is always in short supply.

Cannon's Kharmic Law: If you tell the boss you were late for work because you had a flat tire, the next morning, you will have a flat tire.

Martin's Law of Meteorology: The worse the weather, the more you are required to be out in it.

Ehrlich's Law: The first rule of intelligent tinkering is to save all the parts.

Norman Einstein's Law: If it's stupid but it works, it isn't stupid.

Col. Murphy's Law of Combat: Never forget that your weapon was made by the lowest bidder!

Nothing is foolproof to the sufficiently talented fool.

Friendly fire isn't!

Better to be incompatent than incontanent.

Better to be flatulant than flacid.

Never get in to a battle of wits with an unarmed opponent.

It's usually best if the DA only has one story to listen to. (retired cop told me this!)
