Thanks to Angela, it's Friday High Five. Come join the fun and check out the rules. Then see other blogging High Fives.
- Twelve strangers can sit in a small room for a week and find something to talk about other than the trial, which they aren't allowed to talk about.
- I'm supposed to have my septic tank cleaned every two years...let's see, the last time mine was cleaned was....never. Now I'm afraid to do it...or not to do it.
- Cleaning air ducts should be done every five years...let's see, the last time mine were cleaned was...never. But I did have them cleaned a month after jury duty.
- A "not for profit" organization CAN make a profit. Hum? How does that work again?
- Homeschooling parents, public school teachers and private school teachers can all sit in the same room for a week and actually have an intelligent and unemotional conversation about the advantages and disadvantages of ways to educate children.
I always wanted to finally get selected for the jury. Some day!
ReplyDeleteThere are all kinds of not-for-profits that make a profit. In most cases it just means they have to donate the profit to another not-for-profit or retain it internally. But it sure seems weird!
i keep getting called for jury duty and it keeps getting cancelled. I know it would suck to be chosen, but, secretly, i want to be!
ReplyDeleteI've never been called for jury duty but always thought with the right case it could be fun. My sister who recently had jury duty insists I am wrong. You did learn a lot!
