Do any of you use www.flightaware.com to stalk, errrr, track flights?

I'm more a fan of www.flightstats.com - FlightStats and FlightAware are both good at different things. If I'm tracking a flight I have both in their own tabs.

I'm gonna call it a night. Gotta unfortunately be up early.

I got jury duty, potentially the last two weeks of May ... With the $11 a day stipend (and having to provide my own lunch), I hope I don't have to stick around that entire time-frame.

I find jury duty to be the easiest thing to get out of (in a legit way) if you stay up with the news and are into politics at all and have any prejudice against drug laws you can get out of most anything.

I find the war on drugs to be stupid, busting someone for smoking maryj in their house....come on we got much worse things to protect against, like drunk drivers.

Lawyers don't like it if you have an opinion ;)
I also just happen to be so jaded against the government being able to do anything right anymore that they don't seem to care for me.

Good evening box.

Saw the astros beat the braves today. Of course 3pm might be the last time I was sober today. You know you're drunk when you can't keep track of a baseball game...

Yup. As long as you have an opinion. Doesn't need to be biased or prejudice. Just an opinion, and you make yourself heard by asking questions if they don't ask you. The opinion will either favor the defense or prosecution one way or another, so one of the lawyers will strike you out almost certainly.

As a former social studies teacher, I don't have a particular desire to intentionally get disqualified from jury duty. Plus a petit juror (in this region) would probably be asked to stay around for potential future trials in the service range ...

I did not say intentionally, just answer the questions honestly, lawyers like brain dead people on juries :)

I got my collar popped on my brooks brother polo, while I am drinking a Yuengling. I feel pretty damn good about my life at the moment.
