Husar’s Laws, part 9…

  1. Ha. The teenager thing is right on the money and I would add double that if you are getting paybacks for some other deeds in life. Mine is really, really ornery. Does that mean I had a LOT of sex? Or am I getting paybacks for all the headaches I caused my parents? Never pay in advance is not always going to work in my business. On that one street corner, it’s payment up front. 😉

  2. Mack’s corollary to golf:
    When having a bad day shooting I wish I was golfing.
    When having a bad day golfing I wish I was shooting.

  3. As a lawyer myself, I am indignant! Indignant I say!

    Here, have a laugh;

    As the lawyer awoke from surgery, he asked, “Why are all the blinds drawn?” The nurse answered, “There’s a fire across the street, and we didn’t want you to think you had died.”

    A man died and was taken to his place of eternal torment by the devil.

    As he passed raging fire pits and shrieking sinners, he saw a man he recognized as a lawyer snuggling up to a beautiful woman.

    ‘That’s unfair!’ he cried. ‘I have to roast for all eternity, and that lawyer gets to spend it with a beautiful woman.’

    ‘Shut up,’ barked the devil, jabbing the man with his pitchfork.

    ‘Who are you to question that woman’s punishment?’

  4. There comes a time in every project that we must shoot the engineer and move on with progress.

    That one needs to be carved in marble.

    • Maybe; but I’ve known a few engineers I’d rather have carved the words on their forehead; backwards and told them to go buy a mirror.

  5. The 50/50 90% rule is more like 99.9 % when plugging in USBs or two prong plugs.

  7. And when you find a set of good batteries for the flashlight, then you find out that the bulb is busted, and after replacing that, the switch is bad. Thank you oh evil Military Flashlight contracting fairygodmother.

  8. The two other great lies:
    a) Nothing will change after the merger, and
    b) the check is in the mail. Honest!

  9. Hey Old NFO;

    Those things are getting better and better….I might start publishing lawyer jokes…

  10. Lawyer jokes, eh? Here’s a few of my favorites:

    What’s the difference between a lawyer and a vulture?

    Timesheets. (Alternative answer: the lawyer has removable wingtips)

    What’s the difference between a lawyer and a prostitute?

    Generally, the prostitute will not f#%& you after you’re dead.

  11. Brian- I think you’re in that 1% of good ones… 🙂

    Chris- LOL, thanks! I actually hadn’t heard the first one!

  12. lol – Thank you. Enjoyed it!
    I always tell others – damn the lawyers. I know too many, and am one. So I know. Talking every kid that wants to go to law school out of it that I can. 🙂
