Since someone mentioned Murphy's Law: In the US about 30 years ago, they used to annually publish a Murphy's Law calendar. Bright red & yellow thing with each month being one example... and the cover (intentionally) printed off-center. I thought they were funny, and I bought one. I took it to work, and found a spot on the wall in a workroom by the large computer terminal. This was on a Friday. It rained a LOT over the weekend. Came in on Monday to find the building roof had leaked, and the one spot where it found our office was right over the wall with the calendar. Water ran down the wall, loosened the paper/plaster and caused the pin holding the calendar to fall, leaving the Murphy's Law calendar soaked & wrinkled on the floor. I think there's a Murphy's Law somewhere to cover paradigm cases........
