Blog link on jury duty

[celticdragonfly]

bkseiver sent me to the blog of a friend of hers, Dez, who I've heard bits and pieces about now and then. This entry:

particularly amused me. I'm not likely to get called to jury duty any time soon, but I have friends who have dealt with it lately and may also be amused

By all means, although feel free to continue - I like the idea of my journal being a friendly place.

What's a Weber FAQ? A Honorverse webpage or something else?

Back in the day, I played a lot in alt.books.david-weber, and maintained the FAQ for the newsgroup (I was the Mad Archivist), but now that I've gone inactive over there, I now have emeritus status. Not sure if this was why DW tuckerized me in the 8th Honor book, he told me at Chicon 2000 when I asked that he needed a Hispanic surname. I told him that I'm not Hispanic according to the census bureau because my family came from Portugal, but if this put me in the tradition of Dom Henrique the Navigator, Vasco da Gama, and Fernão Magalhaes (Magellan), I was delighted.
