MURPHY'S LAW!!!

Here's some of my research on a topic I found quite interesting..

Murphy's law is a popular adage in western culture that broadly states that things will go wrong in any given situation, if you give them a chance. "If there's more than one possible outcome of a job or task, and one of those outcomes will result in disaster or an undesirable consequence, then somebody will do it that way." It is most often cited as "Whatever can go wrong will go wrong, and at the worst possible time,"

And now the humorous take on Murphy's law...!! (Applies a lot to my life you see...)

         

THE PRIME AXIOM: In any field of scientific endeavor, anything that
can go wrong, will.

2. If the possibility exists of several things going wrong, the one that
will go wrong is the one that will do the most damage.
3. Everything will go wrong at one time.
3.1 That time is always when you least expect it.
4. If nothing can go wrong, something will.
5. Nothing is as easy as it looks.
6. Everything takes longer than you think.
7. Left to themselves, things always go from bad to worse.
8. Nature always sides with the hidden flaw.
9. Given the most inappropriate time for something to go wrong, that's
when it will occur.
10. Mother Nature is a bitch.
10.1 The universe is not indifferent to intelligence, it is actively
hostile to it.
11. If everything seems to be going well, you have obviously overlooked
something.
12. If in any problem you find yourself doing an immense amount of work,
the answer can be obtained by simple inspection.
13. Never make anything simple and efficient when a way can be found
to
make it complex and wonderful.
14. If it doesn't fit, use a bigger hammer.
15. In an instrument or device characterized by a number of plus-or-minus
errors, the total error will be the sum of all the errors adding in
the same direction.
16. In any given calculation, the fault will never be placed if more than
one person is involved.
16.1 In any given discovery, the credit will never be properly placed
if more than one person is involved.
17. All warranty and guarantee clauses become invalid upon payment of
the
final invoice.


You may think I'm a pessimist. But I really am an optimist with a LOT
of experience :)
Response to comments : I believe Lord Murphy has chosen ones. These people
receive his attention a lot more than the 'lucky' ones. Im one of them and Im really proud of the fact that Lord Murphy devotes so much time and attention to me!!

Twister

Remarkable display of my non existent song writing skills

Iv lost all sense of direction
Spinning out of control with no destination
For a moment I thought I was heading east
Wrong again that was just the sky beneath my feet

All I hear is the screaming of the voices in my head
All I smell is the silence of my fear
All I see is what could have been
All I feel is insecurity

Desperately hanging on to illusions of support
Then like a stab in the back
It strikes me again
That sense of fading hope

I'm sure this storm will move on
Stop as suddenly as it started
No doubt I will come out of this alive
Cause if there's one thing I know it's how to survive

Suddenly I feel this eerie sense of calm
But thats only cause I'm in the eye of the storm
No I'm not stuck in a tornado
The tornado is stuck in me

Almost....

Most of us go though life never expecting things to happen...And suddenly one day u encounter someone or something that rudely awakens you from this stupor...and reminds you of what you once wanted or gives you a vision of what you can have..?

Suddenly the thing you wanted is within your reach and you feel like your days of bad luck is over..
You are on cloud nine knowing fully well that there is still time before you actually get to where you want to be... Premature elation you might call it but that doubt is still there at the back of your head.. 'what if i loose this like the ones I've lost before..?' Slowly and steadily you sink into the comfort of a new found happiness...

And then one day when you least expect it... You realize you've lost it...Wait it was never yours to loose was it..? But still.. You were ALMOST there.. Almost belived that you were'nt so unlucky after all... Then you analyze..What went wrong..? And then its time to face the truth it was'nt really anybody's fault...Just a matter of bad luck and bad timing.. Maybe there's still hope left..And you want to hold on to that hope with all the strength you have...But life has taught you better... that holding on to illusions is NOT good for you...

How many ALMOSTS is it going to take..? Before you get bold enough to look the truth in the eye..the truth that reads 'Im jinxed accept it'
