Live Paradox

A journeyman’s ramblings: He is no everyman, but one who turns a carefully focused eye on the events of the madcap world around him. He aims to point out what others miss and draw attention to the patterns that exist amongst the chaos.

WAG - Holy Parlimentary Procedure Process Batman!


This evening, instead of watching new episodes of "Gilmore Girls" or "Smallville," I got to attend my first MU Residence Hall Association as amember.

In the past, I've been acting as a proxy/observer. I've gone to mostly all the meetings. I've played the part of substitue, when necessary, as well as just a note taker to take comments back to the Hall Council (the dorm government for those of you who are interested; for those of you who aren't interested, I'd applogize but I don't care. It's my Blog. It's your call to keep reading. I won't bow or pander to my audience...I'm not even sure I have one. So...um...take THAT! Um... Crap. Where was I...?).

Anyway, a Hatch represenative wanted to drop the position, due to scheduling trouble, and I was asked to take over.

All that setup was to say today I attended my first RHA meeting as a full-fledged member. I had visions of Robin finally being able to join the big leagues and rid the planet of the vile injustices that plague it. My new commission made me feel endowed, empowered, and energized. I was ready to take on the world!

On a related note, tonight the RHA passed a resolution to correct grammatical errors in the organization's constitutional by-laws.

Okay, taking down any criminal masterminds may not pop up at the top of the agenda anytime soon, but at least I no longer have to put an asterisk next to my name on the attendance sheet. I'm no longer "just watchin'." I'm here to make a difference.

Or make more jokes about people in tights... I'm easy.
