    The Law of Random Numbers

    When you are fixing a piece of equipment, you remember a call you need to make only when your hands are dirty. Then you touch the wrong area on your phone. You end up calling someone and do not know who it is. Ever notice when you call a wrong number someone always answers?

    The Coffee Law

    You are in the tractor or combine cab and everything is going well. As soon as you pour a cup of coffee, something goes wrong. By the time it is fixed, your coffee is cold. Has happened too many times so I got an insulated travel mug!

    The Doctor's Law

    It has been a long harvest, you are tired and really don't feel well. Your hip is really hurting. You know you should get an appointment with Dr. Munch. You make an appointment, but by the time you get there you feel better. Don't make an appointment and you will wish you had!
