From the Halls of Justice -- Brooklyn Style! So I'm on jury duty today, but oddly, there are two public terminals here in the jury duty waiting room, or as it's known, "The Juror's Lounge." I'd like to open a bar with that name someday. Well, not really.

I actually got a "Judicial Court Hearing" subpoena, which gives you another 2 month extension if you want it (after you haul your ass down to the court house at 8:45 AM to prove you're not a total deadbeat, and thus eligible for an arrest warrant for contempt). But since I was here anyway and had already blocked off the whole day, I figured I'd get it over with. Of course, in Brooklyn, it's a two-day, 9-to-5 commitment (it's only one day in Boston, and they let you go after dismissing you from a jury), so here I am. I don't know what the time limit is on this public terminal, but for now, this isn't that different from telecommuting. Just noisier, less convenient, and worse lighting.

More later, if the opportunity presents itself....  ¶ 10:35 AM
