Why would I not be surprised to know youve been under oath in a court of law many times

Only as an expert witness....

I've been asked but never have done it. I was active duty military the first time. Last time the night before they said they needed numbers 1-70something and i was like number 400something.

I loved jury duty.

I realize I"m in the minority on this one.

Never been asked to do jury duty.

I got called once in Georgia... was looking forward to see what it was like... but before they could ask any questions to see who to take, the defence attorney dropped dead, right there in the courtroom... so that was the end of that for me...

Then recently I got called to serve in federal court in Mobile... but that got postponed before the day came because one of the lawyers had a heart attack... so I got dismissed from that one too...

So, I'm either 0-for-2 or 2-for-2 depending on how you look at it...

I would actually love to be in a jury for a really good case.

My old boss was the forewoman on a large case and she said it was fantastic. She was gone, off and on, about 4 months.

That was just a single case and not a grand jury? Grand juries last that long, with intermittent time demands... but I never heard of a single case doing that.... (which doesn't mean anything... I don't really know anything about this kind of stuff....)

Grand Jury I believe.

In some ways,I think that would be more interesting than most individual cases would be.... you hear the D.A. press for indictments on all kinds of cases.... so you'd hear way more stuff.... the weakness of the experience would be that you don't get to hear any arguments from the D.... so, as they say, a D.A. could get an indictment for a canned ham if he wanted to...

EDIT: it should be "ham sandwich", not "canned ham".... "canned him" is what got Letterman fired from his weatherman job in Indianapolis... during a hailstorm he reported "hail stones the size of canned hams"... they fired him right away...

I have never not gone a whole season without going to an O's game in my adult life.

Considering ending that right now.

I've never fractured or broken a bone.

I've sprained ankles and knees, dropped things on my feet, but I've never actually had something crack in there.

Of course, now I'll go out tonight and get hit by a trolley...

Never done that either.

I never beat Super Mario Bros.

I never had friends later on like the ones I had when I was twelve. Jesus, does anyone?
