Some people have all the luck

I served on one jury when I lived in NJ. It took 2 days just to get assigned. The case lasted 4 days. After you sit through all 4 days, they pick 2 alternates. I was one of the alternates. The 2 of us sat in a tiny, windowless room. For two days. Weren't allowed to speak to each other. Waited. Waited. The jury reached a verdict. We were excused.

Dr. S. Edward Dakil, a urologist called as an expert witness, repeatedly prompted laughter from the jury when discussion turned to the penis pump. Dakil defended use of the device after defense attorney Clark Brewster said it was an out-of-date treatment for erectile dysfunction.
“I still use those,” Dakil testified.Brewster paused.
“Not you, personally?” he asked.
“No,” Dakil responded as jurors laughed. “I recommend those as a urologist.”

How come I never get to serve on these juries? I still don't even know what the verdict was in my case.
