Sal the cat

Post » Fri Apr 08, 2011 8:52 am

I guess they need to include "Is a cat." as an option on the form in the future...

I'd think that listing a cat under "pet" should be enough to make it exempt from jury duty, though, why would you even call a pet to jury duty? That's just crazy. It seems either someone got really confused here, or they need to rethink the system somewhat.

Wow. My first reaction was, and I quote, "Wwwhhhaaaaaaaaat..." I'm sure plenty of wit has already been posted, so that saves me some work. Still, that's the weirdest thing I've seen in a long time.

This cat probably has a better head on it's shoulders then most of the people they call for it.

Am I the only one that's depressed that this type of topic has nearly 30 posts now?

(And yes, I do realize how paradoxical this post is.)

I guess I'm just too pessimistic... I didn't find it very humorous.

Finally a happy and light hearted news story. All you see them report on is BAD news. 95% of the time.

First it was jury duty, then they join the army. Next thing you know, cats will become elected officials, and rule our species with an iron paw! KILL ALL THE CATS YOU SEE!!!

I for one welcome our new feline overlords

You probably shouldn't have made that public. I heard there are a few cats on this server.

And now they can put faces to the names! Curses, we'll just have to arm ourselves with catnip and retreat to an undisclosed location!

On topic: I hope this little piece of news doesn't fade into obscurity like all the others, and we actually get to learn the outcome of Sal and his day in court. I guess it's a good idea that in NZ, you have to enrol to vote and that is how they select you for jury duty. Though...I guess some strange people would probably even try enrol their cat to vote O_o

ZING ALERT!

On-topic: I'm guessing the people in charge of the paperwork seem pretty stupid now don't they.
