Have you ever served on a jury? What was your experience?
Submitted by jacolily.
When I was about 24, I served on a jury with some interesting people. One was a teacher at my former high school, one was a feminist who worked at a local women's clinic and one was a belly dance instructor.
The case was about a guy who got caught in a sting operation when he sold cocaine to a cop. I felt bad for the guy, but it seemed to be a clearcut case. He was unlucky.
I remember thinking that the prosecuting attorney was a jerk, and would have liked to vote "not guilty" just because of the lawyer. As it was, I was scheduled for a vacation the next weekend with the man I ended up marrying, so I was not about to make the case go on any longer (it ran for a week as it was).
What board game are you really good at? Really bad at?
I used to be good at Trivial Pursuit - I really don't like board games that much.
I'm bad at checkers.
