    yeah who cares if they think you didn't work for your iPod too.

    MARCH?? that is a long time. I only had to go for one day when I had jury duty and then the next day when I called they said "you don't have to come back! don't come back!" or something. jury duty still sucks though.

    hi btw ^.^

    The most boring time of my life was spent in a grand jury room. tenchiguam December 30 2005, 08:07:53 UTC
    It's been so long, that I have forgotten how long my stay as a grand juror was. What irritated me the most about listening to various testimonies was when 'persons of age' (50+) got really emotional...some even offered either advice or ridiculed witnesses and victims (grand juries, unlike courtroom juries, are allowed to question witnesses and victims), which was a big no-no.

    Really? I know. It's not like all the exciting stuff they put on TV. It's actually kind of tedious and boring.
