If it hadn't been 80 degrees outside, he also would have worn his black velvet longcoat, and did the whole "interview with a vampire" image. We're hoping it works. (Although, I just now realize I forgot to have him take a copy of the "Necronomicon" with him - that might have sealed the deal alone.)

What creative things have you done to get excused?

I understand that liberal use of the word "Redrum" on the jury questionnaire can get you out of jury duty.

Also a simple request to the judge requesting to be placed on a trial with a defendant that's black,hispanic,jewish, christian or <insert your choice of race or religion>, cuz everyone knows them type is always guilty should do the trick.

Best of luck to FP in avoiding his civic duty
