Aren’t I relieved it did not find me seated on the jury?
Alas! Was not the lot mostly a ghost town, due to Presidents’ Day being a union holiday?
Also, am I not currently “on hiatus,” bereft of office space, gainful employment, and a working drive-on pass?
Can you swing by when I’m back at work?
Think outside of the box, what goes really good with hummus?
Banana chips? Chocolate? (How far “outside” are we going here?)
Can’t we go all the way!?
Ooh, hollow out cherry tomatoes and fill with hummus?
Hummus samosa?
What about pickled cherry peppers, filled with hummus?
Winner winner chicken dinner?!?
If your hummus has salt in it, how about something sweet, like raisins? What about cinnamon-raisin bread?
Don’t I enjoy whole wheat cinn-raisin bread (the bread isn’t sweet, just the raisins in it) dipped in salted olive oil? And wasn’t my dinner tonight two slices of grilled ww cinn-raisin bread, topped with ripe avocado that had been mixed with garlic and salt? Didn’t I find it to be delicious? Might it work with a garlicky, salty, olive-oily hummus?
Hot dogs - is this supposed to be a question?
Is the old grey lady trolling our estimable @Donald_Petersen?
Why - does he live in a 20,000-ft mansion with a 13-car garage?
(The piker – I live in an 1,100 sq-ft house with a 2-car garage - he should have at least a 36-car garage.)
Ever have one of those weeks where you keep forgetting to do things (put on deodorant, take a shower, pack a lunch)?
Can I blame the NyQuil?
Did I pick the wrong week to stop sniffing glue?
What if it was a month, so there was a week, but also three more?
Aren’t juries like the most democratic of democratic practices? Why do we all hate doing it so much?
Is it mostly waiting around to be called?
Why have I never even been asked (in either country)?
What’s wrong with me? It’s like prom all over again, isn’t it?
Not that I could do it here anyway, but it’s the thought that counts, right?
And I didn’t want to go to prom anyway, did I?
Haven’t I only been asked like once (jury, I mean, though prom, too)?
And isn’t this what annoys folks the most?
Does it help if you tell the court how much you liked Twelve Angry Men?
