Look what I got in the mail!

This is what it says on the back...

"Jury duty is one of the highest duties of citizenship. Your service will give you and opportunity to learn about Gwinnett County's court system and allow you to see the county's trial court operate. While it may require some adjustment of your normal schedule and routine to serve as a juror, the judges hope that any inconvenience will be minimal and they thank you, in advance, for your sacrifice and effort."

I am actually quite excited about it. I was called for Jury Duty a number of years ago when I was in college and actually got to sit on a jury for two days in an assault and robbery case. Some young lady tried to rob another woman at a post office using a toy gun. When the victim realized the gun was not real, she resisted and the perp gave her a beat down. We found her guilty.

I look forward to participating in one of the "highest duties of citizenship."
