Someone is getting called for jury duty...but it's no human.
A family is trying to figure out how their pet cat was summonsed for jury duty.
“I said, Sal, what’s this? You know, I don’t believe it I was shocked,” said Guy Esposito, Sal’s owner.
Sal’s owners, Guy and Anna Esposito, think they may know the source of the mix up: Sal really is a member of the family, so on the last Census form, Anna Esposito listed him under “pets”.
“I just wrote ‘Sal Esposito’, scratched out the ‘dog,’ and wrote, ‘cat,’” said Anna.
Anna filed for Sal’s disqualification of service. However, the jury commissioner was unmoved and denied the request.
Sal’s service date at Suffolk Superior Court is set for March 23. Anna said that if the issue isn’t cleared up by then, she will simply have to bring the cat to court.
DYK I'd show up in court with my cat in a carrier, and vet records to show that's who it is

dyk we buy milk and stock up on bottled water once a month.
dyk but even the bottled water consumption has gone way down here...we have a spout for filtered water at our kitchen sink, so it kills me to spend money on water at the store.

DYK wow, you guys do go thru a lot!
DYK we probably consume just as much "liquid" but we don't get the variety that people with kids do
DYK we have diet soda (w/out nutra-sweet) and that's about it, no juice unless we're sick or occassionally
DYK I'm a huge water drinker, probably 2 - 3 liters a day, DH does more than me
DYK he probably drinks a liter of diet soda, but I only have a can on the weekend
DYK and I'm a coffee drinker, but that is provided at work, I only make at home on the weekends!
DYK OMG --- look at this article

DYK how crazy is that?
DYK I just woke up from a nap 1.5 hours ago -- and I am tired again
DYK can't figure it out -- at my yearly physical, doc ran the usual blood work, added in Vitamin D to make sure I was good
DYK everything perfect, including thyroid level (which I do take meds for)
DYK I'm getting 8 hours a night, what could be causing tiredness?
dyk, that's great
dyk, that's pretty close to my office...I'm really tempted to show up there on March 23rd to see if I see anyone carrying a cat in!

DYK two of our cats have received pre-approved credit card applications
DYK Rusty has received numerous pieces of junk mail
DYK we ordered something for them online -- there was a blank to put their names
DYK someone must have sold the mailing list -- turned Rusty into Russel and left Buddy as it is.
dyk we buy milk and stock up on bottled water once a month.
dyk but even the bottled water consumption has gone way down here...we have a spout for filtered water at our kitchen sink, so it kills me to spend money on water at the store.
dyk we don't buy juice at all.
dyk that's too funny!
dyk and that cat will be going to court on my birthday.
dyk could it be the weather?
dyk I know when it's dreary around here, I'm constantly yawning and feeling run down.
dyk a girlfriend of mine came over and we drove up to the trail around the lake this afternoon.
dyk we did 5 miles and let me tell you...that wind coming off the water was COLD!
dyk I'm feeling great though.
DYK we're the same on the beverages?
DYK kids drink milk, water, or crystal lite?
DYK I confess to drinking too much diet soda?
DYK we never buy juice?
DYK luckily we have good tasting tap water -- although having lived where you're at Jennie, I can honestly say the water there truly sucked?
DYK Jennie -- have you thought about doing a bottled water dispenser and refilling the 5gal bottle at the store...it's WAY cheaper than bottles?
