A Citizen's Duty


Received a complaint my blog has become too serious; that there are too few “foolish” postings.

When my mother became unable to handle her affairs, I started receiving her mail.

One day a summons for jury duty arrived. Since I had already ignored several, decided I had best do my duty and put the date on my calendar.

Arrived, signed in, sat down and waited. Waited some more. Finally, heard my mother’s name called. Yep, I had answered her summons.

@ NFO A laugh, then we took care of removing my mother's name.

My sweet little sister was hugely amused. Told all our mutual friends and family.

Well, somebody had to tell the world. That's what sweet little sisters are for. Glad I could help out, big brother.
