Murphy's Law.

#1

Post by MoJo »

The discussion of press checks prompted me to toss this one out. How many of you have actually seen Murphy's Law in action? Not just in regards to fire arms but in our everyday lives. It seems the more we prepare for the unexpected the more unexpected seems to happen. Now, is this because we as mere mortals focus on what is familiar and overlook the obvious or, is it as some hypothesize, "Things are just out to get us?"

I think it's a great cosmic conspiricy!!!! - - - that's my story and I'm sticking with it! :wink:

Murphy is alive and well. I know because I once saw him and tried to shoot him only to have my first and only FTF. He just laughed and ran away. :x

There's a saying that the loudest sound is hearing a 'click' when you expect a 'bang'.

It's happened to me and I can tell you it's true.

Imagine if you will a firing line with 15+ officers shooting a qual course and 14 guns go off and one clicks. It is amazing how 14 people can find that one so fast.

I didn't know if I was supposed to laugh at him or shoot at him. :lol: :lol:
