Nothing happens, once (again); Aug. 2, 2010, ASUO Senate meeting review
A classroom. A cluster of desks.
Late afternoon.
Flanigan, sitting at a desk, is trying to cover the ASUO Senate. She pulls at it with both hands, panting.
She gets up, exhausted, rests, tries again.
As before.
Enter Tomchak.
FLANIGAN. Giving up. Nothing to be done.
TOMCHAK. Advancing with short, stiff strides, legs wide apart. I’m beginning to come around to that opinion. All my life I’ve tried to put it from me, saying Tomchak, be reasonable, you haven’t yet tried everything. And I resumed the struggle. He broods, musing on the struggle, turning to Flanigan. So there you are again.
FLANIGAN. Am I?
That was about it, but it is also imperative I address this question: is it wrong for me to report on the ASUO?
The answer is undoubtedly “yes.” Let’s count the reasons: 1. I live with two ex-ASUO senators; 2. That is more than enough reason; 3. Seriously, can I really be called a credible source in that situation?; 4. But if you must have another reason, these are also ex-ASUO senators whose efforts helped elect 17 of the 20 current ASUO senators.
Really, I don’t suppose I need to expand on that.
