very tired now.
home from a subversive action.
I LOVE A GOOD SUBVERSIVE ACTION.
briefly, a family friend (Uncle Hi - Mlark) and his partner were disappointed with the board of directors of the local Audoban Society.
they orchestrated a (hostile) takeover of the board.
I became a member.
I attended their pre-board meeting gathering for a beer and some lively conversation.
I attended the meeting and rable-roused
(yelling out "why not?!" at one point in a particularly contentious moment)
in the end, I and 200 other folks wrote in the newly nominated board members.
we outnumbered the sitting (ducks) crowd by 2 to 1.
there was some confusion as to whether our votes will count, but that's for others to figure out.
I did my part.
now it's to those who are really invested in this to make the changes necessary.
I also threw in a little argument with my father about the current political climate.
we struck a strange but doable deal.
he agreed to watch 25 minutes of Michael Moore's speech
with.an.open.mind.
I agreed to attend church and "say hi to Jesus".
I'll hold up my bargain, and
I *hope* he will too.
Off to sleep.
More to say,
but
not
now
Atta girl! Way to take on the "man."
ReplyDeleteI'm biding my time for my friendly takeover of the local school board...
