1. Law of Mechanical Repair. Your hands become coated with grease, your nose will begin to itch, and you'll have to pee.
Interesting Facts
2. Law of Gravity. Any tool, nut, bolt, screw, when dropped, will roll to the least accessible place in the universe.
3. Law of Probability. The probability of being watched is directly proportional to the stupidity of your act.
4. Law of Random Numbers. If you dial a wrong number, you never get a busy signal; someone always answers.
5. 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.
6. 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.
7. Law of Biomechanics. The severity of the itch is inversely proportional to the reach.
8. Law of the Theater, Stadiums, and Arenas. At any event, the people whose seats are furthest from the aisle always arrive last. They are the ones who will leave their seats several times to go for food, beer, or the toilet and who leave early before the end of the performance, or the game is over. The folks in the aisle seats come early, never move once, have long gangly legs or big bellies, and stay to the bitter end of the performance. The aisle people also are very surly folk.
9. The Coffee Law. As soon as you sit down to a cup of hot coffee, your boss will ask you to do something which will last until the coffee is cold.
10. Murphy's Law of Lockers. If there are only 2 people in a locker room, they will have adjacent lockers.
11. Law of Physical Surfaces. The chances of an open-faced jelly sandwich landing face down on a floor are directly correlated to the newness and cost of the carpet or rug.
12. Law of Logical Argument. Anything is possible IF you don't know what you are talking about.
13. Law of Physical Appearance. If the clothes fit, they're ugly.
14. Law of Commercial Marketing Strategy. As soon as you find a product that you really like, they will stop making it OR the store will stop selling it!
15. Doctors' 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. But don't make an appointment and you'll stay sick.
March, 2023
The name March comes from the Roman god of war, Mars. Welcome to the third month of the year-or, if you were born before 150 B.C., the first! According to the oldest Roman calendars, one year was ten months long, beginning in March and ending in December. The March equinox occurs on Sunday, March 20, 2022. In the Northern Hemisphere, this is known as the vernal, or spring, equinox and marks the start of the spring season. In the Southern Hemisphere, autumn begins.
St. Patrick's Day turns the Chicago River green, among other festivities. And on this day in 1973, Pink Floyd's "Dark Side of The Moon" first hits the Billboard Top 200 chart at number 95. A mere 14 years later (736 chart weeks, to be exact), it finally leaves the top 200 for the first time, setting a still-unbroken world record.
March's flower is the daffodil.
March's birthstones are the bloodstone and aquamarine. The meaning of the bloodstone is courage.
