*throws confetti for you*

I'm jealous, actually--I've never been called to jury duty and - with the exception of four summers in the Santa Cruz area, I've lived here all my life!

(by the way I saw your comment to MT above, and golly, am so sorry you went through such a thing.)

Yep, and I have a driver's license. Either gets you on the register. It's fine, though. I only grouse because of the parking.

Nice one! Perhaps you'll get a juicy murder like I did. Ugh. Actually I found the whole process fascinating, but I can understand how you might well see it with a jaundiced eye.

What is a jaundiced eye, anyway? Is it a yellow eye? Why would you eye go yellow if you've had a lot of experience with something? What happens if you look through rosy-coloured spectacles with a jaundiced eye?
