Don't these people realize I'm not fit to lead a dog?

Got a promotion, didja? Congrats!

Hopefully you don't have a staff of dogs, which means you'll be excellent.

No, this isn't work-related. I can't explain it yet. It just... amuses the hell out of me.

Hint: See Monday. I'm not at work this week.

Hopefully the case is fairly clear cut, one way or the other, and you won't be deliberating for very long.

Oh, I could just die!

or perhaps the universe has concluded you need to get a clue that you can lead... :-)

'Cause you're smarter than the average juror?

I don't believe that's true.

Being a juror is a type. Say what ever you will about the jury system, the people who show up are of a type: decent, responsible, civic, maybe a little curious about the system, definitely determined to do the right thing as much as humanly possible.

At lunch today, I drove a little ways away from the Regional Justice Center to a barbecue place up the road. The woman behind the counter said, "Oh, a juror! What's that like? I keep getting summoned but I never go." She's not of that type: she's missing one of those ingredients that makes for a juror.

I don't disagree with that, but I still think you're smarter than the average juror.

Also, I'm betting that in the short interaction you've had with them you've already exhibited a working knowledge of a wide variety of subjects, your common sense, and your logical and reasoned approach to issues. No doubt they think you're smarter too. Or at least the most likely to be reasonable in case of arguments and such.

You'll do fine.

Either they don't know this and are paying you a compliment, or they do know this and are saying something very bad about those you're being Spokescritter for.

Your call. :)

As much as I'd like to think the latter, I don't think they'd throw the process just by electing a terrible leader. One did say that I got the job because I'd taken the most notes-- 31 pages worth.

Wait a minute, you need an excuse to do something kinky? :P

I've been called twice. I went once, couldn't go the last time, because I didn't have proper daycare for my daughter.
