Back to Jury Duty

I spent all yesterday hanging out at Jury Duty, but it wasn't that bad. The first half of the day I played Diablo 2 and UT 2004 while I waited for my name to be called. Then right before lunch they finally called me and told me to report to a courtroom at 1:30. They spent all afternoon going over all the standard jury questions, but by 4:40 they still hadn't finished. So far I haven't been selected, but today I have to go back at 9 a.m. so they can finish filling the jury box. If I'm lucky I'll escape service....

The pre-brewing sample they gave me to taste was really not at all like the beer I ended up with, so I'm thinking either it was mislabled or ...
