Today was one of those exciting days that we all experience when we are summoned for JURY DUTY! It turned out to be quite a good experience and I was selected to be on the jury and then elected foreman of the jury. Of course, being the rednecks that we were, we convicted the guy in 8 seconds...
Before the jury selection process began I noticed the wonderful DIVERSITY that we are seeing in America today. Here was the makeup of the jury pool:
23 White men
6 White women
1 Black woman
1 Indian man
3 Asian women
1 Hispanic lesbian *
* Before you get all bent out of shape, I know this for a fact because of her men's boots, men's haircut, men's jeans, the gay flag on her man-purse, and the "Lesbian Pride" wife-beater shirt that she was wearing. At least she was partaking of the diversity...
Of course they demanded that we all be there by 8:30 a.m. and then nothing even happened until 9:12. There were three people who were late... the 3 Asian women.
I thought today was a great lesson in diversity--and a lesson that if you are going to commit a crime it would be probably be best that you don't do it in Plano.

What did Bernie West do this time!
So what was the composition of the 12 who were actually selected for the jury?
The jury was three white men, two white women, and one black woman. The black woman was the coolest of the group though...
But, Did they provide LUNCH??
That would be the most important element today.....
Randy, expect a call from Rich. I think you just found another person for his DIVERSITY program.
Lunch was NOT provided since we finished at 10:43 a.m. However, we will be getting paid $3 for our efforts of the day.
I'm thinking about donating my pay to the USTA diversity fund.
Eric Holder is going to look into this case to see if the black jurist's civil rights were violated. She should obviously be the logical choice for 'jury forman'.
