Got a call around 5:00 last evening from the Sheriff's department saying I needed to be at the courthouse this morning at 8:30 for jury duty. Fun Fun!!!

I found a sub for the bus and went to do my duty. They already had a jury of 12 but needed two alternates. They called the first two up to be interviewed, a man and a woman and dismissed the woman because she had type 2 diabetes. They called another woman up and she was dismissed also. Next was a very young man who was a youth minister. They picked him to stay so me and this other man were able to leave.

I'm glad I didn't have to stay because it was a child molesting criminal case. They were going to have the girl that he supposedly molested testify and I just don't think I would have wanted to hear it.

Hopefully they'll never call me again...it's just not something I would feel really comfortable doing. Oh I think it would be a great learning opportunity, but that would be about it.
