Shame that you've both missed Austin's rather clever attribution to his law!

Bibendum's Law No. 3: If you are carrying something heavy or awkward and you need a door opening and have two bunches if keys in your pocket you will always get the wrong ones first!

Furthermore, said keys will a. be in a pocket on the same side as the heavy/awkward object and b. underneath that heavily used snotrag you had intended disposing of.

Are you so sure, anyway what's drinking got to do with it?
