The best thing about jury duty in NY is that you’re next door to Chinatown. Mmmmm…dim sum.
How come you didn’t have an iPod with you to relieve you of your boredom? ;-)

But can we all just admit that we loved Falco just a little bit (Wait – that was Falco who sang it, right?)?

But just how many times (approximately) do you think you heard in school “Rock me, Jenny Amadeo” ?? oh oh OH

I especially like some of his earlier work, before he broke through to the mainstream via Quizno’s. He had a song about the Moon and how it was made of cheese? Totally fabulous.
As for your rejection, I wouldn’t take offense. Seriously, you’re just too good, too smart, too savvy. They knew. . .somehow, they just KNEW.

Had you opted for the Pizza Hut, Tattooed-Talking-Hairy Man would have then attached himself for the balance of the day, being chemically unable to resist pizza pheremones. But you saw that one coming and deftly sidestepped the danger. It’s inspiring, I tell you.

I’ve always heard that really they’re more afraid of us than we are of them.

S1: Yes, candy has long been my cure for rejection. Or is it perhaps the cause?

A: Then my work here is done.

S2: Normally I’d agree, but I think hamsters were the perfect salesperson for Quizno’s subs. I don’t even really like their food, but still go there because of the ads.

V: OH. MY. GOD. Why am I just hearing about this now? Did you take pictures? Did you tell her about me? She has poodles? What about her rabbits? Is she pretty? Did she go into the candy store? What kind of candy did she get? Do you think she would like it if I sent her a bag of Smarties? CALL ME!

S3: Truer words have never been spoken.

R: I know! Who could they have chosen if they didn’t want anyone from our qualified pool? Apparently the payment has been $17.20 for the past 10 years. Who knows why?

And why $17.20? They couldn’t round up to the nearest quarter?

Crap. Now I’m hungry.

These jury escapades are some of your best! But I’m really here this morning to tell you and some of your interested readers that per your instructions, I have been stalking (not really, more like looking up and down the street and into the faces of all petitte blondes) Amy Sedaris who lives in my neighborhood, which I know because I follow instructions, and this morning I finally found her floating down Hudson Street right past that olde candy shoppe walking two little white poodles.
Love,
Vivian

The best part of the commercial. Rodents, nasty gross ones like on the commercial, do not make great spokespeople. The last thing I wanted after looking at those was a sandwich. It was a funny commercial though.
