Couldn't I Pick Trash Off The Beach Instead?

Got a Jury Duty notice. I've sent my letter in about the financial hardship it would cause. And it would. I'm single, have bills and a mortgage, am not independently wealthy, have not won the lotto, and my job will not pay me for Jury Duty. If they are asking me to give up my vacation time to go to court they are crazy. I also think it's a little insulting that they want me to answer questions about my salary. It's like I'm guilty of evading. I have to prove to them that I really can't afford to be there. I know, I know, it's one of my civil duties, but I pay taxes, quite a bit of taxes... There's really no end to this argument. But luckily I'm just discussing it with myself so I say I'd rather not go to Jury Duty to decide if someone is guilty or innocent and pay my bills.




But I called Shotgun!!!

Believe it or not, Jezebel got in the back after a bit. Basil didn't move... Good for you Basil. She is one pushy chick!!!
