"When you go into court you are putting your fate into the hands of twelve people who weren't smart enough to get out of jury duty." --Bing Crosby
I've never been to court and I've never served on a jury, but this quote strikes me as slightly funny. I know, it is also irreverent, and I really do believe that trial by jury is an important part of our legal system and a right not to be taken for granted. I guess I just filed this quote because there are so many jokes about how to get out of serving on a jury. I've been called in twice, but the first time was the day before Thanksgiving so we were dismissed after a few hours and the second time I didn't have to go (you can call ahead the night before to see if you might be needed).
