Jury Duty Thoughts

I was scheduled to go for Jury Duty tomorrow, but got the word tonight that I am "not required to appear." Why is it that one of the key aspects of our democratic government, something that men and women died for, something that makes all of us proud... is also something that makes us SOOOOO happy when we get out of it?



Trial by jury is a cornerstone of justice. But I am still glad to leave it to others.
