The gray brickwork of the latest addition to the Cumberland County Courthouse is seen here. Been in the old courthouse twice in my life. Once I was on a field trip in high school, and the second time was with my brother, with him to offer support. That's what brothers do. Elenka and I have never been called for jury duty, yet. Now, there I go. I bet I've gone and jinxed myself and what's worse-- her. I'll never live it down, if she's called in the next few months. She'll never let me forget it either. I know that! Sometimes, I should just keep my mouth shut. As far a doing my duty in a jury goes, I'd say my time is running out though. Most of my friends my age have been called. Me? I just keep rolling the dice, I guess. Ah! Snake eyes!

ReplyDeletehahaha Steffe! I hope so! I should mail this copy to the Courthouse!
ReplyDeleteKitty- Too late! She was screaming about it this morning! Something like: "If I get called... you are in so much trouble!"
ya got that right, birdman, if that's who you really are.
ReplyDeleteNice reflection in the window!
ReplyDeleteWithout fail, I've been called every year I've been eligible. Career jurist.
