Jury Duty update
Despite my earlier rejection, I was picked today to be on another jury for a case involving murder and kidnapping. It has been interesting, as I have already heard testimony for the prosecution's case, as well as the defense rebuttals to this information. I'm not at liberty to talk about the particulars, but the actual experience with the jury has been enlightening. I am taking copious notes (thanks to history training), but as we all know, the presentation of reality and its construction through divergent sources can be a challenging enterprise. Both sides seem to believe it will be over by Wednesday, Thursday at the latest. By the way, they feed us at Calhoun's on the river - that seemed very surreal to me...
