From my “Murphy’s Law” desk calendar archives thanks to Aunt Evelyn, Uncle Pipey, and cousin Nancy:

Beifeld’s Principle: The probability of a young man meeting a desirable and receptive young female increases by pyramidal progression when he is already in company of (1) a date, (2) his wife (3) a better looking and richer male friend.

 Goofy guy’s exegesis concerning Beifeld’s Principle: And some of my age are glad that is long behind us, and especially glad we are not face with that principle in the current times.
