Murphy's scouts laws By: webmaster

This was posted on a Scout mailing list and thought it was radically accurate so I am sharing. The other is unknown, but if anyone does not the author or source to credit it to, I would be happy to do so.

Murphy's scouts laws 

• The child with the fewest clean clothes will invariably be the first to get wet
   
• The easier the rules of the game the fewer will want to play
   
• If it can be lost, at some point it will be. This goes for hats, shoes, cups, tents, and the occasional kid
   
• The leader everyone is depending on will always be the last to arrive at the meeting
   
• The attention span of the group is inversely proportional to the importance of what is being taught
   
• The higher the climbable object, the sooner someone will be dared to climb it
   
• If you pack extra food, no one will be hungry. If you pack just enough they will be ravenous
   
• The cleaner the uniform the more attractive it is to mustard/paint/mud/etc.
   
• The more hours of sleep the leaders need, the earlier the kids will wake up
   
• Whoever put their hand up first knows the least about it
