Today I voted. When it came to the Board of Ed, which I honestly don't have a clue about any of the candidates, I voted in all independent parties. Yay Green Party!

...took the fam to see "Megamind" at the movies. Pretty good, actually, and some good in-jokes for comic book and superhero film fans.
Still "Lardy" to my friends!

good luck jerry hahaha [/b]I don't know how they handle it in your state, but Massachusetts has a one day/one trial deal. Basically, if you are not picked for an actual trial, you only have to serve that one day. If you do get picked, you only have that trial, no other. You're in Califoria, right? They also have the one day/one trial system. I've been called several ties and only once was I almost seated on the jury. But this January, I have grand jury duty. Acording to the info they provided, 45-60 people show up and 23 are chosen for the grand jury. If chosen, I'll be serving for 3 months.
