PANEL 1 SIGN: NO ALCOHOL SOLD TODAY" PANEL 4 "I DON'T CARE WHAT IT SMELLS LIKE - EAT UP!" LEAST LIKED LAWS BLUE LAW MURPHY'S LAW NEWTON'S LAW COLE'S LAW
In TN, we have Sunshine Law, no beer or liquor sales before noon on a given day. In some counties its a ban every a.m. with no Sunday sales at all and in some counties the ban is just on a.m.s on Sundays. Never heard of the Blue Law. But as a newlywed, my husband tried convince me that he was governed by another sort of Blue Law……..
Hey, Murphy was an optimist.I always love “What can go wrong will go wrong and it will be the worst wrong that you never thought of as being wrong or even being possible to occure as a wrong in the project.”My dad was a Government worker.
Our Laws in the Army“If you dont know what it does do not mess with it.”“Once the pin is pulled Mr. Grenade is no longer your friend.”“Friendly fire isn’t.”“If you find yourself up to you neck in an alligator infested swamp you must remember your mission is to drain the swamp.”’If you can read “Front Towards Enemy” your claymore is facing you."“If it breaks and you are not around. It will be blamed on you eventually.”“Learn the difference between slit trench and latrine.”“When in doubt, blow in place.”“Never shoot at anything you do not intend to kill.”(one of my favorites)" When in doubt, call in an air strike."“Army Survival Guide-Call the Marines” (let them find out if it is dangerous)“Grenades are round. They will roll back if tossed up hill.”
Police Laws“If you are staring at an officers gun now is not the time to argue.”“If you are told to drop it just drop it. Holding it to ask why is not a good idea.”“Never drive beside an officer on the road. We attract trouble. You do not want to be around.”

I know it doesn’t fit the theme, but natto smells (and tastes) much worse than cole slaw. Yet it is a favorite for many people.

My Murphy’s Law desk calendar (365 things why wrongs continue to go reason) had “Cole’s Law” as the entry for April first.
