The dinner looks delicious, but what really caught my eye was the darling plate with the yellow and white polka dots! That's so sweet. Did your wife pick out that plate for you, or did you ?

In fairness though i did cook the food on the plate

It is all to do with the story of the bride as you go through WDW's HM.there are several wedding photo's as you move through the attic.I each one it starts off nice and then the husband dissapears as she "offs" them.She is wearing extra pearls in each picture as the husband count increases .

I did not know that! That's interesting. I still say no to the pearls.

Id disagree.

The nerve might be pinched with some accumulated fluid.
He might end losing this nerve if it keeps getting pinched (thus losing the feeling on the area).
Id say someone has to drain or remove that ball.

Yea like I said that's what I would do if it was me. I'm not a doctor, now if you need respiratory advice I would be better equipped to give a more educated opinion.
But I appreciate him asking me but all I can do is answer how I would act in that situation.

What time is it? It's (short) RANT time . . .

Why is it that some residents never get called for jury duty, and people like me have been called 3 times (over a period of years)! Supposedly it's a "random" selection of residents in the state, but I'm crying foul. I think the courts have a secret database of people who have filled out the juror forms correctly before, and have shown up on the date they're supposed to--and the state just keeps asking those people to come back and be a juror again.

If I was being tried I would want you on the jury. Maybe you send out vibes of good reason and intelligence.

 

[seahawk7]

I was called for jury duty 4 times in about a 6 year period, several years back, so it's been a while (knock on wood - my head ).

The fourth time, which I was dismissed from was actually in the neighboring county because of our neighborhoods limited annexation by Austin. I was dismissed the first 2 times in our county, as well.

The third time, was a DWI/DUI case in our county. I made the final cut, and was baffled...
During voir dire, I told them I was arrested for DWI when I was 22 (plead no contest, so it was never a conviction - and, learned my lesson and have never driven intoxicated since - as most of you know, beer runs are made, but, I've never driven after that, someone else does), and that I had both a BIL and a good friend that were police officers.

Anyway, the trial lasted 3 days, and we ended up delivering a guilty verdict (first time convuction - he got 3 years probation, if I remember correctly).

After the trial, we were all called into the jury room to be thanked for our service by the judge and had a question and answer/conversation with him. It was actually pretty interesting.

Quite by chance, I ended up riding down in the elevator with the defense attorney of the guy we just found guilty...awkward.
Then he, out of the blue, said "You guys did a good job".

Wow!

Shortly after that, we were walking to our cars together, and I asked him how the heck did I get picked? Turns out...on a technicality. They were originally not going to pick me, but, another potential juror...until someone reported her discussing the nature of the case out in the hall during a break. Lucky me for being the runner up.

We then stopped and talked for a bit about how it was really difficult for him to defend people that were so obviously guilty. It was probably that I just happened to be there and he needed to vent, but, what an interesting conversation that you would never expect.

Anyway, I was proud to serve, but, I would prefer to never hafta' do it again...unless, maybe after we retire.

Side note here...
Since then, one of DWifey's cousins daughters has become the Assistant DA for the county we live in, so we're all instantly out if we're called for any case she might be prosecuting...!!!

OK now with all you bring called for jury you have me worried why I've never been called for jury.

You take the chicken and I will eat the greens. I thought they looked scrumptious. I like to sprinkle red and white wine vinegar on them.
