If you're serious about this, just know that if you actually get to the part where lawyers ask questions, it will be very, very apparant what you need to say to get out of it. If you don't want to bother with that you can always give some long rant about the failures of the justice system, how much you hate defense laywers, etc. etc. But generally you don't have to go that far. The lawyers will make it obvious what angle they are going for.

I served on a 6 day trial for a civil suit about a year and a half ago. I found it fascinating. I would recommend you do it at some point.

Edit: Oh the random statement that I came in here for:

I just spent 3 solid minutes staring at horse's sig, trying to determine how many different hair styles Sasha Voyouchichichichichich was sporting. I settled on three.
