Jury Duty, Day 1

I (Chris) got a jury duty summons in the mail a couple of months ago and decided that instead of postponing my service until sometime next year (when I will be cramming for the boards or working in clinics) when I really don't want to miss school/studying I would show up today when they had me scheduled. My hopes of reenacting "Runaway Jury" were dashed by 7 hours of boredom.

I had hoped to either get dismissed quickly or at least get picked to be on the jury of an interesting trial but I got neither. Instead, I sat in the jury selection room reading, studying, napping and wishing that I had brought some food for the entire day until they let us go at 3:30. I get to go back tomorrow and do it all again....hopefully I have better luck then.
