Jury Duty ? ! I don't get it. Jury duty? Got a driver's license? You're on the list, if so. I vote regularly, and in all my years I got called to jury duty just twice, both times the case or cases were dismissed and so were the potential jurors. Never saw the inside of the courtroom either time. A wasted morning, and noon and afternoon off of work. I probably wouldn't get picked anyway, lawyers don't like smart jurors.
