It's horrid, I hope you don't have it? well I am glad you have learned to not get so stressed about life, I am still in the learning stage on that one. Sounds like you went prepared for Jury Duty. I have had jury duty many times, now a days I get out of it because of my Fibromyalgia and other reasons. They used to call on me every year and although they are only suppose to call on you every other year. Anyways have a great weekend! hugsKrystal Katshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05657401731168428902noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15530750.post-74414739081539644742011-05-18T21:45:12.389-04:002011-05-18T21:45:12.389-04:00Annie I've been called to jury duty three time...Annie I've been called to jury duty three times in my life and never got to be a juror. There is a lot of waiting around but I found it was an interesting experience. One funny thing happened to me last time -- I was in a voir dire process and as I listened to the judge describe the details of the case (it was a car injury law suit) I realized it knew both the defendant and victim! What is the chances in a NYC borough of 2.5 million people that I would know both? Needless to say I was dismissed from that case!Pat @ Mille Fiori Favoritihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08922525910685129822noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15530750.post-10536510319445623162011-05-18T18:08:00.973-04:002011-05-18T18:08:00.973-04:00Ciao Annie! :)

But now I am curious and will check :)<br />Thanks for stopping by, have a lovely day/evening!Kianoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15530750.post-36358694234252591212011-05-18T06:54:44.546-04:002011-05-18T06:54:44.546-04:00Hi Annie, trying to squeeze in a bit of blogging a...Hi Annie, trying to squeeze in a bit of blogging and blog hopping to cheer me up after another wet and cold day.<br />Brrrrr, jury duty. It was my worst nightmare ;) while in the US, coz one of Zeno's co-worker (from Italy like us) was selected and I was sooo scary to be selected as well, LOL! I still can't believe why oh why do you select people that have a 1 or 2 years visa. Then one of our American friends told me I could say no thanks, I do not speak a good English and I do not feel like doing it :)) What a relief! <br />Ok, I better sign off, I spend 5 minutes day-dreaming over your header, how pathetic am I, hahahaha!<br />Happy Wednesday and hope to pop by again soon, ciao! :)Kiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11327411102238314117noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15530750.post-66632238871916398992011-05-17T20:14:32.932-04:002011-05-17T20:14:32.932-04:00Hi Annie;

Last time I was called for jury duty, we sat in the court room for 3 hours waiting to be called for selection. Another 2 hours passed by as they were choosing jurists from the 30 (me included) for the trial. Turned out the two parties settled out of court and we were (finally) all sent home. That was about 12 years ago. <br /><br />I didn't think I would be online tonight as I lost my cable phone, TV and internet this afternoon. Thank goodness it's back. LOL! I'd be lost without it. Thank you so much for your kind words on my poetry site. I truly appreciate it. HugsAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
