Hi everyone,
This was a wishlist request from a while back, o.k. so I mean more than just
a while. But it is finally done, few, and ready for a good proofing. Enjoy
should be a quick read. And be careful of Cole's law: thinly sliced
cabbage.

Brief Synopsis:
If anything can go wrong it will... This wit and wisdom from Murphey, and
many other thinkers of disaster and mayhem.
Long Synopsis:
You can rely on MURPHY'S LAW for miraculous revelations and unassailable
realities - all culled from the intricacies of twentieth- century life. The
author has included some Laws of Parkinson, some Peter Principles and even a
little Cole's Law (slimly sliced cabbage). There are chapters for
truth-seekers in every field - from Designmanship and Machinesmanship to
Hierarchiology and Humanship. If Fate has you by the throat or a tiger has
your tongue, let Murphy's now- classic words say it for you: "If anything
can go wrong, it will." Arthur Bloch, like Murphy, has refined his natural
wisdom through years of hard work. He has been, a car wash attendant, an egg
gatherer, and a bass guitarist, and his words have appeared in The People's
Almanac and The Book of Lists. Bloch currently resides in Berkeley,
California, and studies cosmology. PRICE/STERN/SLOAN Publishers, Inc., Los
Angeles $2.50
