Just had jury duty Monday, third time never picked... Wow they sure are wasting your time!
If pigs could fly bacon would be harder to come by and there would be a lot of damaged trees.

IMO, the worst drivers on the planet live in Ohio. In the biggest town near me (Ft. Wayne), if there's an accident typically one of the cars is from Ohio. Of course driving in that city if you're not used to it can be confusing. The way some of the roads are set up, you have to wonder what the engineers were smoking when they designed them. There's a section of I-69 where the exit and entry ramp is at the same place! I kid you not!

Yeah Cecil, You missed that 10 dollar pay day. Bummer It's been bumped up to $40.00 per day with a free lunch! Whoo hoo!

I was on a jury in a personal injury case. They asked if any of us prospective jurors had any relationship to any of the attorneys. My son had taken the daughter of one of the attorneys to prom, but they didn't seem to think that was enough to disqualify me. Somehow I got elected foreman. After we reached a verdict I was looking forward to the judge saying, "jury, have you reached and verdict?" and me standing up and saying, "we have your honor." But after we reached our verdict we were dismissed and weren't even in the building when it was read. Anyway, the defendant had already been found guilty, but the plaintiff wasn't happy with the amount of money that was being offered. We the jury actually awarded the plaintiff less than the defendant had offered to pay before trial.

I am only 23 years old, and I have been ordered to show up for jury duty three times already. What gives? Never had to actually serve though. They would send the letters to a residence I no longer lived at and once I told them I no longer lived in the county they excused me.

You reminded me of something that was funny when I was in the ANG. We had guys that were old enough to be my dad that had served in Vietnam. (Outstanding members as they had lots of experience on active duty). Master Sgt.'s and Senior Master Sgt.'s. Anyway, for some reason the so called 'random" drug tests seemed to favor those guys. Some of them would get so angry that they had been called in for a random drug test two or three drills in a row! They were the last people on earth that would be using drugs. Us younger guys thought it was quite the hoot!
