Little League Baseball World Series is currently happening. I confess I like watching it more than Major League Baseball.
I was manager for my son's team for a few years. Those kids are so emotional and they try so hard. Their hearts are really into it. Was some of the best times I had with my son. That was more than 20 years ago. I remember like it was yesterday. Watching it on TV really brings back the memories. Last edited by Esteban; 08-27-2022 at 04:32 PM.. |

I got a raise at work, but not RSU's this time. A raise was nice.
But I'm still a bit dejected over the job search. Got through 3 rounds with Amazon, interviewed with 2 other companies, and have my resume ignored or told I wouldn't be considered by about 6-7 other companies. I'm wondering it my resume doesn't look good, or if some companies are worried that 15 years of experience with the last 6 at Oracle means they think aren't going to be willing to pay enough. |

The holidays aren't even here and my anxiety is on full go. I love when it turns fall but dealing with certain family members makes me want to vomit.

Except for right in my nose holes, I shave with my wife's razor.

Although it's a pain in the ass, and normally inconvenient having to sit around and waste time waiting to see if you're selected. I actually enjoy sitting on a jury. I have been known to change the opinions of 11 people

I try to have lots of water before I start and usually drink 4 or 5 glasses of wine and never (rarely) have a hangover. I know that does nothing to make you feel better now. Sorry. |

Unlike a regular jury for a trial, the Grand Jury operates without a judge in the room. Jurors can ask questions of witnesses, and about 98% of the time the person being indicted doesn't even know that the Grand Jury is hearing their case until after a decision is made and an inditement handed down. Our whole group was sad when our term ended, and I would absolutely serve again if asked.....

2. Then you have people that are depending on pay to give the state the outcome they want in a trial. That seems like a TERRIBLE idea. |

A jury doesn't consist of 12 of your peers, but rather 12 people who were too dumb to get out of jury duty!!!!!
