Tidings to the tribe. Trash that’s trivial.

Maturity is a bitter disappointment for which no remedy exists, unless laughter can be said to remedy anything.

Civic Responsibility

January 30th, 2007

There were some 49 reasonable people and me in the pool of potential jurors.

I was very surprised when I was the 6th out of 9 selected for the jury.

It’s a very good thing I have an understanding boss, and an employer with flexible policies.  I’ve missed 3 days already this month for surgery and related appointments.

    In a way I’m jealous that you got on a jury. I’m just as old as you are, yet I have never even been called in let alone been selected for a jury.

    I loved that play, 12 Angry Men. You should be the holdout who forces everyone to change their vote.
