Murphy's Law: REVISED UPDATE

*NOTE subtleties emphasized in their articulate closures contain a quantum message.  

I think we're in trouble mate
why, what's wrong
I saw the pilot reading a manual
was it how to land a plane in a storm
no, how to fly one
???---!.

there's no life preservers on this ship, mate
I heard this captain say that the ship has a full complement on board
so what does that mean
well after the ship sinks
we'll just sit tight
with no life preservers
there'll be plenty
just wait a while
give or take ... !

My new blocking app went into overload last night, and I slept on the matter as a cure-all. Quantumly refreshed I opened the app and found the on switch for my email app, but it's a friendly site, and found all apps blocked and the button to unblock all instead of one-by-one. I realized its military properties of following its orders as a blocker--friend or foe. I'll answer you in my next quantum.
