Did I tell you about the time Sue and I went to a BBQ Festival before I left California? It was held beside the Santa Monica pier. The BBQ was okay, but we had a great time. Check out the basketballs used for one of the shooting games. Notice the color of all the balls except Duke!

Morning, all! I'm off to jury duty this morning. What do you think the odds are that I'll get picked? I have 3 cousins who are cops, I have a PhD in chemistry from Duke, and I currently do biomedical research. In Arkansas any one of these things would be enough for a very quick "thank you for your service."

Have fun. Sweetie Pie just got a summons this week, I've never been. She's done it once before, and I think she took too much delight in sending some guy up the river.

If you are looking to get OUT of Jury Duty, here are a few ideas to consider....

1.Pretend to be completely skittish—terrified even—of the court, the judge, the officers and bailiff. Squirm uncomfortably in your seat, sort of like you have bad cramps or gas. Look around constantly with a nervous

2.When the judge questions you, say something like “Oh no, your honor, I really do want to serve. See, I’ve always had a tendency towards reading peoples mind, and I always dreamed of using it for good. Now I get the chance to send this guilty person to jail!”

3. Wear a t-shirt that says “It costs a lot to house prisoners. Capital punishment for all!!”
4.Write a highly opinionated, articulate, confidant, and frank letter stating the reasons why you feel the entire justice system as a whole is a load of crap and that you could never find someone guilty under such a faulty system.

5.Cross your arms, squint your eyes, and say “my grandpa was a cop. I know all about YOU attorneys.”

6.Scratch your head furiously, like an insane maniac, groan and pull at your hair. Then raise your hand, say you think you have lice, and ask if the bailiff can check your head for bugs.

7.Pretend to have a sinus infection. Constantly blow your nose, and just when you can’t get more irritating, “run” out of tissue and simply resort to sucking the snot up your nose.

Others (courtesy of Letterman) include:

# I can tell if people are guilty by looking at them.
# I'm attracted to you, your honor.
# If a police officer told me I was a bug, I would believe him.
# Is it murder if I haven't been caught?
# My religion prohibits me from sitting near other people.
# Would I have to bathe?
# Can each of my personalities vote in deliberations?
# Laws are for sissies.
# Your Deputy's handcuffs are turning me on.
# I'm allergic to justice.
# I'm deaf. (Answer questions thereafter by cupping hand and shouting "What?")
# A pit bull named [defendant's first name] just killed my baby.
# I have Tourette's Syndrome, you fucking asshole.
# I get dizzy if I try to weigh evidence.
# Have you ever done this, your honor? (Chop off your ear with a razor).
# An eye for an eye? I say we take his head for an eye! (Point at defendant).

Great ideas all, but none were necessary. I just got paid $12 to sit in a room all day, read, and wait for my number to NOT be called. It wasn't. :D

I came pretty close to spending it all in one place. I ate lunch at a pretty decent pizza place that's a couple of blocks from the court house.
