A lot of people don't know there really was a Murphy -- famed ever since.

A lot of those things are very true. What is happening with me right now is that I am clumsy and seem to drop everything. Not at work, but here at home when I am working on something. What I drop -- screws, fittings, driver bits, etc. falls down and I never get them back. If inside the house it falls to the floor and I cannot find it even if walking around barefoot. Sweeping the floor doesn't help half the time either. It is as if when I am home alone working on something I am jinxed.

Oh yeah, the dropsies is a real pain, & I do it all the time.
There is a trick to finding that sort of thing. Go out and buy a replacement. The minute you walk back in, you will find what you lost. It works every time for me.
The ninety-ninety rule of project schedules: the first 90% of any project takes the first 90% of the time and the last % takes the other 90%.

Yes!
The law of vanishing tools - use a wrench put it down next to you then reach for it and it'll be gone, you'll look every where and you won't find it, then go and get a new wrench and when you came back behold! The wrench you were looking for is right where you were looking.
