    Seriously great people watching of your juror "peers"!

    What about the $1.50/hour paycheck they give you for attending?  Isn't that worth it?

    I need to stop being crabby. "Democracy" is another thing to like about jury duty. Geez, Heather, the chairs aren't even uncomfortable. The old lettuce stuck to the magazine was gross, but easily avoidable (as I do magazines in any public place)

    Think about our political and legal system over here.  Then think about the way it is in the rest of the world (watch the news for five minutes and see what's going on in Iran, for example).  Thank your lucky stars for the system we have here.  Then, buck up, take your $10 stipend and your day away from the office, do your small part to make that system work, and stop whining about it. /rant over

    Bad_Brad - you must have missed the part where I mentioned Democracy as one thing to be thankful for (and metnioned that I should stop being crabby). I wish you had a blog, because you are no doubt "perfect". Thanks for setting me straight.

    Yep, that's me, perfect in every way.  :) Sorry if my post came across as rude and arrogant - I am annoyed just as you are by having to take time to do jury duty and probably would complain about it in my blog just as you did if I had one ... then my rational side would kick in and tell me that it's a small price to pay to make our judicial of a "jury of your peers" truly work.  Sort of like the sequence of thoughts you went through.
