Just be yourself, and you will be done in no time. Or our government, in its infinite wisdom, might make you the foreman. You never know what those politicians are thinking.

Be sure to wave around that gargantuan richard in the courtroom! :zoinks:

But he'll still be in the courtroom later on, as the defendant. But still, anything is better than jury duty though, especially if the defendant you've got to sit as jury for is hell's angels or organised crime related.

Existence actually has two broad meanings despite its apparent meaningless. The constant reconciliation of all its parts, and the conservation of any closed system as a whole.

Morality can be extrapolated from these meanings to make these two commandments of godless morality: 1). Be in harmony with one another and 2). Care for the environment.

Juries select their foreman. No one is appointed by any officer of the court.

 That's right, Richard would be elected foreman by a jury of his peers!  :2thumbsup:

I dont think many people would mind jury duty if they actually paid you a fair market price for your service. Here they dont pay you for the first day and the second day (as per there website) they pay you a measly $15 a fucking day! this whole process is really starting to scare me, i mean whos going to do a good job being payed like that? Is this why some opt out for a judge to be the final say and not go through a jury trial? fuck that. also its a fuckin waste of time, i'm not really familiar with the are so I have to take the bus. will the court reimburse me for my fucking buss ticket for a week? i doubt it.

oh well they have wifi so i'll be taking pictures of the fat judge with my computer.  :orly:

The first day you won't get paid for unless you get selected, after that you get paid for every day even if the let you out early. Mostly it is not too bad and you can feel good about doing it when it is done. My sleep schedule is fucked up right now, 8:00 am is about when I have been going to sleep lately. I am torn between fixing my sleep schedule or letting it be so my time in Australia has a regular day schedule.  :apondering:
