OOPS - Had any?

That wasn't supposed to happen.

Mistakes happen all the time. That's why so many people agree with Murphy's Law, "what can go wrong, will go wrong at the worst possible time." And they say Murphy is an optimist.

Yeah, what if Murphy is an optimist. What would he think about all those things that went wrong and all those mistakes?

Hey, "Oopsortunity knocks by mistake. Make the most out of whatever happens."

If Murphy was in a musical he would burst into a song (to the melody of "Look for the silver lining")

Look for the Oops-or-tunity
You never know where it may show,

If you met Murphy sitting on a bench he'd tell you a story about a guy who lost his job so he started a business helping Realtors sell distressed houses by sprucing up the lawns with a coat of green paint. Does very well for himself.
You might chime in, to show you understand the concept, with how Columbus discovering America was a profitable oopsortunity, for the Spanish, but not the native Americans. And Murphy will point out that with the Casinos on Indian reservations, they might still not let this oopsortunity get away.
Have you ever had any oopsortunity?
