What a year. After a lousy spring and 1st half of the summer..with my wife
home recovering from an operation, my mom not feeling well and my cat tore
up by the neighbours in a fight. I was counting on the last half of August
and September for some travelling and sailing on my 'new' Sandpiper 565.
Mail came today and there was a jury duty summons for our provincial Supreme
Court. I have to make myself available for the month of September.
I wonder if 'a need for sailing' is good enough excuse to be released?

Much as I hate to undermine the duty of citizens to serve their civic
responsibilities, just babble on during the jury selection process
about how much you hate women, minorities, most political movements,
law keepers, law breakers and are pro-choice and pro-death penalty.
Oh, and that you've always wanted your own fully automatic weapon and
were considering moving to Montana as a result.

You will be dismissed with the court's thanks.
