    So.... in the spirit of the best laid plans of mice and men....

    I resign from my job of 22 years just to ensure I have enough time to get Carrots roadworthy for Cincy, and what comes in the mail today?

    Yep. Jury panel summons.

    Anybody wanna buy a nearly complete TDI swap? Act now and I'll throw in a complete, spare donor...

    Can't you ask to be excused due to a previously scheduled commitment that cannot be rescheduled?

    Just mutter and twitch a lot during the selection process....and make a few noises that sound like zoo animals of your choice.....Speak in tongues and mention your demon possession(s) too. And show up drunk. See, easy to get out of it!
    Or maybe you'll luck out and get a one day case like the one I sat in on years ago.

    Just talk about how much you love all those crime shows, Law and Order, CSI, NCIS, Castle. Tell them you've been doing your research and you find these shows to be very factual. It shows that you're "vision on the reality of court" is twisted. Sure thing to get out of it. All those nice things. You know show that you would be sympathetic to both parties or indecisive. Sure fire way to get out!

    Room's booked. Finally.


    Tony: I'd offer you a ride home; unfortunately, Wilda, ah, lacks in a usable cargo space, thanks to her audio accoutrements.
    As such, she's but a two-butt road trip car (luggage rides in the rear seat.) And, there be a girl riding shotgun with me.

    Mebbe hitch a ride back with Lynn, or Nick, if they're going?
    Damn, that makes me realize that I haven't seen either of them on here (or on the new list) in a while... =/

    Ahh, but the point is the summons date (when I would mumble, drool and seed my conversation with sudden and inexplicable expletives in order to avoid being selected is when I should be driving on a road in Ohio....

    What happens if you don't show up? In PA, they issue you a "stern warning" and then another date on which you should return.

    I would just get with the clerk for the court your supposed to show up in and be honest and tell them you have a "reunion" out of town for the same time and ask to be rescheduled. But show up in person don't just call. And then when they say yep rescheduled have them write their name, time and day on your notice and KEEP it just incase.

    I would like to get my car painted before I get there if I do make it.

    If I can go from Portland to Birmingham with a cracked chassis I'm sure I can make it up there

    Note: cracked chassis has been welded

    Anyone else driving from Al, Fl, Ga, Ms, or Tn?

    Things to do:
    1) make sure that Someone can give a ride to Roger so roger can drive Rodolfo East (its a hint)
    2) figure out the sleeping thing
    3) figure out who will take me back to Michigan (its a hint)
    4) buy the beer for the exchange
    5) Gas up
    6) Maybe fix the radio so Roger can listen to something....
