Default jury duty!

Hi,
I get a letter from my Dr. excusing me from jury duty due to my illness.
However, before I got sick, I was called a few times. Once, while waiting to see if I was called, a guy next to me struck up a conversation about bailing out of the court house. He planned on saying he could not be a good juror because he was racist, predjudiced against everyone. I told him that was not a good idea and ride the morning out as chances of getting called were slim because of the days docket list.
Well, the guy opened up screaming obscenities at a court officer and was hauled away by a crew of court officers. While I and the rest of the potential jurors watched a million year old film about jury duty, this guy was charged with causing a scene in the courthouse. We all left in about 2 hours while this guy was awaiting his own appearance before a judge!
So, I'd stick it out if I were you, my friend!
Oh, lol, lmk if you get to see that vintage film "Jury Duty and You",lol!
Have a pleasant day,
Bill Hedin
PS: Interesting and bizarre things seem to happen around me for some unknown reason! I would say I talk too much!
