Jury Duty

[rickps]

I've been commanded by the Superior (oh yeah, superior to what?) Court of the County of San Diego  to report for jury duty (squalidbear now that you're a citizen, you could be next!) in early December.  PAH!

So, I've been working on a list of preparatory movies I should see...

...And Justice for All
12 Angry Men
Runaway Jury
Chicago (you knew I had to sneak a Broadway musical in there somewhere)
Trial by Jury
The Verdict
I, the Jury
Inherit the Wind
Legally Blond (yeah, OK, I'm reaching here)

and TV shows...

Law and Order (oh, I don't know which one, stop asking)
Perry Mason
The Defenders
Picket Fences
LA Law

Hmm, at this rate, I'm going to have to ask for a postponement.  More choices?

Thank God that you are working at being fully prepared... be sure to bring in little flyers to support your candidacy for fore-person. You'll have even more fun that when you were the president of Foggy City.

Within a few months of Danny's becoming a US citizen in March 2003, he had to report to Federal jury duty. There must be some kind of list to have the recently citizenized report immediately for jury duty.

Me? I had one false alarm call for jury duty four years ago. Whoop.

Hmm, interesting. I've served on two juries and have been called but not selected on at least 3 other occasions. Is there no end to the punishment!

You've got Ugly Betty/Wicked recorded, and I have MTV's televised Legally Blonde. Looks like you'll have to visit *us* too.

Maybe if you pick your nose and talk to the boogers as if they're talking to you, you can get let go. Then again, if you're doing all that research, you must really want to go through with it. ;-)

You mean people don't talk to their boogers? But they have such interesting things to say!

might want to throw in To Kill A Mockingbird, just for good measure

UGH! I totally forgot Mockingbird and it's one of my favorite movies. Come re-watch it with me!
