You're probably right.

Like that judge with you on jury duty?? <g,d,r>
I use the line from The Addams Family movie where Wednesday asks a
couple of girls selling Girl Scout cookies, "Are they made out of real JM>girl scouts" and use a line like that from time to time so I would ask JM>"Is that made from real mud?" or "Is that made with real turtles?"
Of course I'm right, moderators are never wrong. :)
One time I was talking with someone at work about something and the
other person asked if I were sure. I held my head up, sniffed and said I JM>was and added, "Lieutenants are never wrong". <vbg>
Working in security for many years I "hobnob" with folks many people
never meet, or if they do its on a more "professional" basis (cops, JM>judges, etc). After seeing them a while one gets used to 'em. One fella JM>I know is a retired federal judge.
One time working a basketball game I was looking for someone (to relay
a message) at a reception for big wigs. I was speaking to someone I knew JM>and I sometimes talk with my hands (I always joke there's an Italian JM>somewhere in the family) and I accidentally elbowed this fella standing JM>next to me in the back of his ribs. I apologized and the fella turned JM>around and he was a senator from WV (and former governor). I "made an JM>impression" on him that evening. :)
(I also went to college with a close relative of his, I think a
brother or cousin. He comes from a very large family. One time his JM>uncle A. James Manchin (old time Southern politician, always in a white JM>suit, talkative, etc.), was asked on a radio interview show how large his JM>family really was. He replied "In my fathers house are many Manchins".
I nearly drove off the road laughing so hard).
There was a QWK Tagline that said "These brownies don't taste anything
like Girl Scouts". :P
As for turtles, they'd probably tell you to "Go To Shell"...then you
could reply "I buy my gas at Exxon, thank you" <G>.
One of my BBS users a long time ago was a judge in Pulaski County
Circuit Court...although I didn't sit as a juror under him.

Probably so. I asked him if I should address him as "Your Honor", and
he said "Not necessary outside the courtroom". I would've loved to have
met him.
A couple of summers ago I ran into the retired federal judge I know at
the store. We were both on our bikes and going in the same direction and JM>talked as we rode along.
At a corner he ran a stop sign.
I said I was going to have to write him a citation for that.
He replied I was out of my jurisdiction.
I said I knew people in the city.
He replied he knew people above the city.
I said in that case I would let him off with a warning. :)
