I have to confess I took the minutes, How did I steal them?  And where did they go? I placed them in software-playing spinets, I hid them in caves where deep waters flow. The Board graduates members every.year, Peter, Michael, Francesca, David, Wil, Ramona, Chris--you served well, hear, hear! Shannon, Norma--I feel your spirit still.   Into a good board's life some rain must fall, In a bad board's life, it too often pours, Of my boards, I count the U's best of all, Co-Revs and mems joined in visions and chores. A governing board needs to be refaced, I'm sad to go, happy to be replaced,

Israel is a Zionist nation, That reflects the majority's vision, I will not engage in its negation, I respect the voters' clear decision. But minorities are important, too, As your Prime Minister I know it's so, You have a vision that for you is true, If your dream won't hurt us, I won't say no. Secular, orthodox, binational, Statelets devoted to innovation, Self-government is what is rational, The future lies in confederation. May you live by what your vision commands, May we be a light unto all the lands.

My politics lacks abrasive friction. It's sparrowfarts.  That's Vonnegut I think. He was poking fun at elite fiction. Its dearth of wonder.  Its Ivy League wink. I'm regulating choice of law too much. I'm a swimmer speedoing pool to pool. Required to carry a glass and a crutch. Radically constrained.  Bound by my own rule. I'm deeply wedded to democracy. And, bigamously, to the U.S.A. My preaching is narrow hypocrisy. Others have different dreams, live their own way. Choice of law must include what I oppose. Let me not have too delicate a nose.
