I served on a jury for two weeks, about four years ago.
My overrding memory is long tedious hours sitting in a cramped jury room, while the lawyers and judges argued over legal points that the jury weren't allowed to hear. Over half the time I was in court was spent like that.
It was worse then waiting for a plane that's been delayed, because at an airport you can at least sit in another area or go for a walk around.
I didn't have an ebook reader in those days. I got through several magazines and a book of crossword puzzles. If I'm ever called up again, I'll make very certain to take my Kindle along.
