Receipts Are Important People
UNITED STATES—Whenever you buy something, you always get a receipt. For most people, they keep the receipt until they get home, than it’s tossed in the trash.

Jury Duty Calls Yet Again
UNITED STATES—I’m sorry, but I’m going to say it: I hate jury duty. This is not so much about having to perform a civic duty because I do not mind it. My frustration comes with the fact that I am CONSTANTLY, and I mean constantly called for jury duty in a given year. I mean I get called by...
