Didn't I see that in Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan?

Mkay, jury duty sucks. Spent 2 days sitting in room full of a people staring at the wallpaper. And only 2 hotties in the whole lot. At least I didn't get picked.

If you like something different, try Afrikando on 2nd Ave in Seattle. -- authentic Senegalese food. I went there with some friends last night and it was excellent.

Isn't he on Hitler's staff already?

Being convited of a crime and sentenced to a prison term involves the sacrificing of some rights in this country, and I'd say the right to a sex change operation is drfinitely on that list. WTF, are we actually going to have to pay for this? Christ.
