Murphy's Love Laws

# 1 All the good ones are taken.

# 2 If the person isn't taken, there's a reason. (see Law # 1)

# 3 The nicer someone is, the farther away he/she is from you.

#4 Brains x Beauty x Availability = Constant.

#5 The amount of love someone feels for you is inversely proportional to how much you love them.

#6 Money can't buy love, but it sure gets you a great bargaining position.

# 7 The best things in the world are free --- and worth every penny of it.

# 8 Every kind action has a not-so-kind reaction.

# 9 Nice girls/guys finish last.

#10 If it seems too good to be true, it probably is.

# 11 Availability is a function of time. The minute you get interested is the minute they find someone else.


Trivia:
Murphy's Law, "If anything can go wrong, it will", was born in Edwards Air Force Base in 1949 at North Base. It was named after Capt. Edward A. Murphy, an engineer working on Air Force Project MX981, a project designed to see how much sudden deceleration a person can stand in a crash.

One day, after finding that a transducer was wired wrong, he cursed the technician responsible and said, "If there is any way to do it wrong, he'll find it." The contractor's project manager kept a list of "laws" and added this one, which he called Murphy's Law. What he actually did was to take an old law that had been around for years in a more basic form (see above) and gave it a name.
