Jury Duty

[DHBirr]

I've been called twice, the last some nine years ago, so I'm flying under the system's radar somehow (knock wood).  I was never selected.  I know it was nine years, because I kept a copy of an e-mail in which I jokingly told my sister: 

I was called in for jury duty toward the end of July, but they released me when I threatened to have "my sister, the professor" flunk the judge's children.  Fortunately, nobody thought to ask whether his children are students of yours.  They did put your name on a "terrorism suspect" watch list.

Yes, I know that's not funny to normal people, but I liked it.
