Dream Jobs: Jury Duty

I don't understand why people always talk about dodging jury duty. I personally find it fascinating. That is why it is on my bucket list. I once got called for jury duty, and I came SO close to being on the jury, but the stupid prosecutor dismissed me for no reason. It sounded like an interesting case, too, because they were asking us if we thought we could handle pictures of stabbing or something. I bet he thought I couldn't take it. I totally could have. I've seen CSI. And, ok, I don't like the parts in CSI where they get all graphic and show what the bullet would have looked like entering the person. But I didn't puke or anything. Or possibly he thought I looked too smart, like I would realize right away that the defendant wasn't guilty, and that he's just a jerk. That might have been it. That was probably it.

Since then, I've been just sitting, waiting for that magical piece of paper to come in the mail. Some people at my work seem to get called over and over for jury duty. What does a girl have to do to get the call?

If I do get called again, I think I will have to download some theme music onto my mp3 player to listen to while I wait in the little jury room they make you wait in until they need a jury. Things like the Perry Mason theme, and the doink doink sound from Law and Order. Also Night Court, and the People's Court theme music. And does Judge Judy have a theme song? On second thought if I can't think of it I don't know if it would inspire me, so scratch Judge Judy. Am I missing any other theme music for when I am on a jury again?
