enron

Last time I was called for Jury Duty, it took us all day to pick six people to hear a drunk driving case.

They found a jury in one day?

Enron Trial : “Defying complaints from defense lawyers that an unbiased jury could not be seated, U.S. District Court Judge Sim Lake swore in the jury of eight women, four men and four alternates on Monday for a trial that is expected to last four months.”

Okaaaaaay…

My son is six and learning math. He’ll frequently ask things like “What’s five four?” or “What’s six one one two?” Sometimes he’s seeing a price on a sign, or a phone number, or an address.

Here’s a new one:
What’s “One one zero zero zero zero zero zero zero zero?”

That’s how much Enron gouged customers in the West. In dollars. Before filing bankruptcy.
