THAT was fun.

I had my first jury trial today. That in itself was fun. But what was more fun was kicking the state’s ass. Kicking it. Not guilty on all charges.

Wanna guess how long the jury was out for?

No kidding – 15 minutes. (how can you even read through the 15 pages of jury instructions that fast?)

That was seriously fun.
