Ugh...not something I hope to have to go through.

My husband has been chosen twice..and my son has also...neither of them had to stay longer than a half a day, each time.

I would be the one picked for a sequestered jury that would take a MONTH...LOL

It is funny how I was in the Jury selection stage on a Civil case where a big Blond beefy looking middle aged man was suing this Bar in Broward that had a bucking Bronco ride. It seems he got drunk and then tried to ride the Bucking Bronco,and had his privates injured. Everything was going fine in the questioning of the potential jurors until the Defense Attorney asked me a pointed question. He said " If you were in this situation whereas you had been drinking heavily,you would go ahead and try to ride a mechanical Bucking Bronco,wouldn't you?" I answered back in disbelief "what do you think I am crazy?" With that answer several of the potential Jurors burst out laughing,and we were all let go because the Doofus blond guy's Attorney knew we thought it was foolish to ride a mechanical Bull drunk and expect someone else to pay the price to fix his groin. I knew the Judge on the case long before he was a Judge. He could hardly contain himself at the entire matter. The blond doofus had a red face the entire time we were there.LOL!
