    I am a big fan of this show I even watch all the reruns when they are on. Thank you for posting the list I have always wanted to know all of them. So many of them are familiar I can't wait for the new show to start.

    Some other characters have dropped a few of their own rules over the years, but I can only think of two at the moment.
    
    McGee's Rule #1: Never lie to Gibbs (Told to Ned Dornaget in Season 9)
    
    Abby's Rule #9: Always keep a spare (Referring to Caf-Pow!)

    Thanks for the list of rules :D I believe it isn't the unwritten rule, but the unspoken rule (or as Franks said it: "the unspoken one"). See ep. 8.01, 16-17 min in.

    There's the unwritten rule: you do what you have to for family

    What about rule #69: Never trust a woman who doesn't trust her man. (Season 9 Episode 7) and Rule #42: Never accept and apology from someone who just sucker punched you. (Season 9 Episode 16) :)

    Rule #36
    If if feels like you're being played, you probably are.
    
    I don't know what episode it is from but I remember Tony refering too it. It might have been to Sec Nav at the beginning of season 9.
