On What Happens When You Serve as an Alternate Juror
This was pretty much exactly my experience, except the case was about a 19-year-old named Ishmael (yep) who punched a cop on New Year's. I felt so bad for his court-appointed attorney.

On The Best Time I Took My Baby to the Emergency Room
Lovely piece and SUPER CUTE baby.
My mom slipped on our icy front stairs while holding my baby brother once. He bounced all the way down and rolled into the street.
He was totally fine, but my mom screwed up her back. Go figure.

@MoxyCrimeFighter he's a liberal! And a really hilarious writer. 'Thank You for Smoking' is classic.

"Mountains Beyond Mountains" by Tracy Kidder makes you feel a liiiitle bit like a horrible human being (because why aren't YOU opening a hospital for starving Haitian orphans?!), but mostly, it's excellent writing about a heartbreakingly compassionate and slightly insane traveling doctor.
