Last time I had jury duty was the day after I got my brand-new, secondhand La Scalas...

Got selected on a civil case & was able to reduce the amount awarded from the innocent person to the whining cry-baby who "proved" her case with testimony from her mother.

It is a criminal offense to disclose anything which occurs in a grand jury room so this is purely fictional.

 

I had a "friend" that was called to grand jury duty. He was a lawyer so he got elected Foreman. He tried to do his job well. Therefore, he tried to explain the "elements" of each crime to his fellow jurors and why, or why not, the DA had proven his case.. Finally, one of them said, "Cut the shit. The police would not have arrested him if he wasn't guilty."

 

So much for law school, he thought.

Once when a Dos Equis commercial came on, I said "there's Boxx"!

My wife looked at me like I was odd, then I told her who Boxx was….she laughed.

Poured another.  Ate a stalk of celery.

I had beef jerky. I'm cheap and it tastes good. Easy 96% ground beef, spices and the de-hydrater , dehydrator , that thing that dries out beef jerky

 

well, you’re a Navy man and I spent 20 in the Coast Guard. There is a phrase used to describe the food that I suspect you’ve heard ...

“how was chow…any good?"

“It’ll make a turd."

I'll try to post some pics tomorrow but today me and six other guys went to this little dive about twenty miles away to eat Bar-b-que.  One of the guy's son has a limo so we got him to drive us there.  We all posed in front of the limo and country store.  One guy is blind and was wearing dark glasses so he posed as the driver with his cane touching the curb.  A fun trip.  We decided next time....a couple of girls and lap dances.

As a matter of fact I have used that once..........or twice; and then you hope it does

OK, third Turkey and soda, now wishing for something a bit more from Colorado than from the Dominican Republic.  Hope the winds of change blow through Texas soon.  I'd love to have shared one with Boxx, but the issue is that if he did I suspect he'd act a lot...like Boxx.  A person can only be so mellow, donchaknow.

Springer on monitor w/sound off

 

OK, what the hell is a "Springer" on a monitor?

Jerry on TV?

 

if that’s true…somebody get up there quick and take all firearms and sharp objects away from Mark--he isn’t thinking clearly.   Quick Mark--crank up the volume a bit more.

One ahead of me Dave.....I'll try to catch up.  Anyone remember what Boxx's drink was.....besides Dos Equis?

Boxx was a wine aficionado I believe … not sure what his favorite bottle was.  If Tigerman stops by, he can answer that -- he and Boxx talked about wine often.
