Oh Murphy - look how famous you've become...

• Murphy explained
• Where to find laws that try to expalin the "why" of calamities

Anyway - it has to do with the ability of things to go wrong...

here are some examples of a few "Murphy" Laws...

MURPHY'S LAWS

1.  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.
18.  Murphy's Law: "If there are two or more ways to do
    something, and one of those ways can result in a
    catastrophe, then someone will do it."

I hope you managed some chuckles...
