    What makes you say that?
    Ask your vet about microchipping. ~ It could have saved Kuhio's life.

    I'm guessing it's because she's an attorney. Many attorneys prefer not to have other attorneys on juries, although it varies by jurisdiction.
    I'm sometimes asked "Why do you spend so much of your time and money talking about kindness to animals when there is so much cruelty to men?" I answer: "I am working at the roots." -George T. Angell, reformer (1823-1909)

    I was called in once and they took a role call and then said that everyone would be dismissed because the trial had been post poned.

    I've received the letter in the mail stating that I may be selected at least 3-4 times. Since I don't get paid through my work if I were to be selected, I have a lady in human resources type me up a letter stating that it would be a financial hardship and I mail it in and get out of it.
