i guess i'm not meant to see Eisley. for weekends on end i don't have anything to do and the one weekend i do they play. Crying or Very sad


Man, what's with TX and jury duty??? (I know, the first person is from CA, but still...)

I know TX DOC "puts down" an above average # of offenders (we're hoping they were all legit convictions), so is that a byproduct, Jury duty in droves? I mean, what are the chances?? I can only imagine if it's a local case in a small town there's more of a chance, but really though?

i would be really scared to be tried around here.

i keep reading in all the papers about how people are cleared by DNA after serving 30 years - convictions on faulty eye witness testimony.

i'll say this - the jury i served on, i would not want to be tried by them. everyone already had their opinions made up (more or less the "alpha males" spoke up and everyone just went on with them) and weren't really about actually talking about it much. if i didn't speak up some i don't think they would have even requested looking over the evidence.

if i get selected again i'll speak up when they're elminating jurors because i just don't like the idea of judging people (which was actually something they asked).

thats the great thing about california, if you say you believe in the death penalty, they wont choose you to be a juror and then they will just send you home.

that is my plan.

actually i think this is how i got out of the child molestation case:

out of the random number picking system i was number 1!
then the defense attorney addressed certain jury candidates and he made me stand up for one question something along the lines of:

"do you think a child would ever make up these allegations?"

i just replied with:

"i wouldn't think so...i guess."

that probably made them cross me off.

re: jamie

that's pretty cool.

the Cinematic Titanic thing is Saturday in Dallas and i assume we'll leave Saturday morn/afternoon so maybe i can make it after all.

i can live with that. Wink

note to Kim: you may be the only one to read my typo post, so just to make clear - i would NOT think a child would just make that stuff up under normal circumstances. i left the "n't" out.

I'm the one who raised the question... so my bad too, snowball effect contributor right here Embarassed

Won't be traveling for the show, or much anything looking at gas prices, but it seems Brewtones is a great place for amateur videographers, so hopefully we'll get some good clips, maybe fodder for a webisode???

We know that least two songs lend themselves to the spare arrangements of an acoustic set: Be Kind and Ambulance, it would be nice to get a listen to the letter and another take of the prior in a more controlled environment.
