I've seen women do this, but it shocks me. I can't have a nail clipper or TUBE OF TOOTHPASTE but they can have long metal needles??? If I wanted to kill someone, I would use a knitting needle not a nail clipper :(
in nj, they tell you to bring a book to jury duty while you wait in the bullpen. but when they actually call you, you have to leave it on the table or in a locker. they want your full attention in the jury room.
as for how stupid they are: the judge asked everyone if they had a medical condition that might prevent them from serving properly. i said i would like to serve, but i sometimes had siezures and blacked out. the judge then asked me what happened when i blacked out. he got all pissy when i said i didn't know, i just woke up on the floor after i blacked out. duh! i swear, i said it with a straight face.
