Members of the Jury...

Hurrah! Elizabeth White, Clerk of the Marion Circuit Court, has mailed me a summons for Jury Service. For years I have waited for the good people of the Marion County Courts to realize my obvious worth as a potential juror and call me into duty, but they always ignore me and call up Jim instead. I was beginning to feel unloved. I even always vote and have been registered to vote since we moved from Boone County (where I never got called for Jury Duty either) - I have cars registered here - regularly frequent all kinds of local establishments - even forgot to pay my electric bill once and got the electricity cut off - all kinds of things to draw attention to myself.

My time has finally come. Now watch them not even call my group, or disqualify me. Silly bureaucrats and attorneys - don't they know I am in the .0000009% that want to serve? Actually, the way my life works, my jury pool will get called and I will have to get excused because I will need life saving surgery that day or something unavoidable like that...
