Good judgment comes from experience, and a lot of that comes from bad judgment.
If you’re riding ahead of the herd, take a look back every now and then to make sure it’s still there.
Don’t squat with your spurs on.
Always drink upstream from the herd.
There are three kinds of men. Those who learn by reading. Those who learn by observations. The rest of them have to pee on the electric fence for themselves.
Law of gravity: Any tool, nut, bolt, screw when dropped, will roll to the least accessible corner.
Law of Probability: The probability of being watched is directly proportional to the stupidity of your act.
Variation Law: If you change lines (or traffic lanes) the one you were in will always move faster than the one you are in now (works every time).
Law of Close Encounters: The probability of meeting someone you know increases dramatically when you are with someone you don’t want to be seen with.
Law of Result: When you try to prove to someone that a machine won’t work, it will.
Law of Biomechanics: The severity of the itch is inversely proportional to the ability to reach it.
Law of the Theater: At any event, the people whose seats are furthest from the aisle arrive last.
Murphy’s Law of Lockers: If there are only two people in a locker room, they will have adjacent lockers
Law of Physical Surfaces: The chance of an open-faced jelly sandwich landing face down on a floor covering are directly correlated to the newness and cost of the carpeting.
Doctor’s Law: If you don’t feel well, make an appointment to go to the doctor, by the time you get there you’ll feel better. Don’t make an appointment and you’ll stay sick.
Law of Mechanical Repair: After your hands become coated with grease, your nose will begin to itch and you’ll have to pee.
Don’t eat yellow snow.
Sometimes the best solution to a morale problem is just to fire all of the unhappy people.
When you earnestly believe you can compensate for a lack of skill by doubling your efforts, there’s no end to what you can’t do.
Great words of wisdom. Love the jelly sandwich analogy.

Did that once. Worked.
That first one there……… I wish I would learn to damn well listen to that.
Laws of Naval navagation: If the rudder is stuck hard over, increasing speed merely makes you circle faster.
“•Sometimes the best solution to a morale problem is just to fire all of the unhappy people.” I have said this all along. There are too many people out there who would be HAPPY to work and do a better job. Longevity often leads to complacency.
Those last two are oh-so-true. Also diametrically opposed. 🙂
Law of Probability should read:
The probability of the BN CO or Scout Executive coming by your office is directly proportional to the amount of time spent on gun blogs and Facebook.
I know these are all true, as I’ve personally tested them.
Hey Old NFO;
The law of mechanical repair is soooo true..I speak from experience. Also the law of bio-mechanics, there is a lot of truth in it.
