Update: I called last night, and found out that I don't have to report, just fill out the summons and send it back. Bummer - I had my books all picked out. Oh, well. Maybe next time.

Unless you want to watch his ancient history, don't bother. He hasn't put anything up in 2 years.

What channel? I haven't gotten a notification from you in so long that your icon has rigor mortis.

That's an interesting point. She was obviously intelligent, and physically healthy; her disabilities were the result of an illness as a toddler (measles? scarlet fever? I forget.) Would one actually want her out of the gene pool, or would one tolerate the disabilities for the sake of healthy genes?

She was a socialist, too.

I hate sleeping so much.

No. You don't call it that. Some people do use the term.

Quite the week for birthdays - Mickey Mouse turned 91 on Monday.

It was put up by some fans about 40 years after he died - he was too broke to have afforded it (although he was listed on the family monument.)

In lieu of happy birthday:

You have a lot of energy for so early in the morning.

Happy birthday! Here's something new for the parlor!

Is it anything that Janice and I can help with?

I'd love to meet Zenigundam. Preferably at a cheap motel where they take cash, and don't ask questions. Two go in, one comes out.

Why can't all Christmasy commercials be like this?

I'm not too worried about the voir dire - unless it's a DUI, in which case I'll be declined at mach speed, and happily so. I've already spent too much time in court over bullshit that should be obvious.

I don't know - it didn't say anything about it on the summons, so I'm assuming trial.

See, I would love something like that.

Will do!

County. Fortunately, I live in the county seat, and I may walk if the weather's nice - parking is probably going to be a bitch.

That's kind of excessive, like using tnt to take out an ant hill (unless it's fire ants, in which case it's fun.)

I plan on taking two - something fairly innocuous if it sounds like an interesting case, and either The Encyclopedia of the Devil's Disciples or The Devil: A Biography if it sounds dull.

Oh,no. I want to go. I'm one of those awful people who revel in true crime books and shows.

I got summoned for jury duty! I'm so excited! This is the first time ever in my whole life that I've gotten a summons, and I'm just tickled pink. Any advice?
