^^^^Correct. I never had jury duty. I'd be proud to go!
just go, you have alll these freedoms, and the second your country asks you too do something you try to get out of it. just suck it up and go. :p
chances are you wont be picked
The jury duty construction in the US is, in my opinion, an old-fashioned and stupid idea anyway. Just say your from Europe and stick by this opinion, you'll be fine.

We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers…Also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls. The only thing that really worried me was the ether. There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge. –Raoul Duke
It is hard to shed anything but crocodile tears over White House speechwriter Patrick Buchanan's tragic analysis of the Nixon debacle. "It's like Sisyphus," he said. "We rolled the rock all the way up the mountain...and it rolled right back down on us...." Neither Sisyphus nor the commander of the Light Brigade nor Pat Buchanan had the time or any real inclination to question what they were doing...a martyr, to the bitter end, to a "flawed" cause and a narrow, atavistic concept of conservative politics that has done more damage to itself and the country in less than six years than its liberal enemies could have done in two or three decades. -Hunter S. Thompson

Well since my wife is the assistant clerk of the court.... You are best not to just blow it off. How much trouble you can get into depends on how pissed of the court gets. If they have plenty of other jurors, they might let it slide. If they have a shortage and are in a bad mood, they may reschedule and threaten you with a bench warrant. If the clerk is really in a foul mood, you could be looking at an arrest warrant. They don't often hunt you down on bench warrants. But next time a cop pulls you over, your car goes to the impound lot while you go to jail.
Oh, and judges hate smart asses. Keep that in mind.
Yet, today, America's leaders are reenacting every folly that brought these great powers [Russia, Germany, and Japan] to ruin -- from arrogance and hubris, to assertions of global hegemony, to imperial overstretch, to trumpeting new 'crusades,' to handing out war guarantees to regions and countries where Americans have never fought before. We are piling up the kind of commitments that produced the greatest disasters of the twentieth century.

I'd say, go. It's an experience that some people never get to have. Such as me, so far :)
You should go. It will discourage you from ever committing a crime
