Not as dumb as it seems
We all know the feeling too well
Part of creating winning teams
Does that somehow ring a bell?

Personally I hate H-Cs
But I wouldn’t make it so dramatic
I sit and daydream of birds and bees
That often works the magic

Sometimes I pretend to take notes
While chatting people overseas
And I always volunteer to count votes
Make foolish comments when no one agrees

Call me foolish, call me insane
But things like this get to my head
Do like me, you can always abstain
What I really want is get to bed

Now this is dumb, but that you already knew
I’ve never been one of the chosen few
Of words and thoughts I have a slew
But I will take my leave with no further ado

Amazing…still voting on parking spots and where to put provisioning with baby monitors….Hahahahhahahaaaaaa…..memories! Love it!

For us it’s the same,
Repetition is the game,
Nothing lost, nothing gained,
It seems.

We vote till we totally drop,
About inside/outside flip flops,
Dining room/Kitchen mops,
Constant changes.

And then there’s …
Internet hours,
Potted flowers,
Noise levels, CLE funds,
Overload on soap suds,
Trivial changes?

So don’t worry,
You’re not alone,
Same thing happens,
To every home,
So good luck!

Dude, it isn’t about votes
Who loses or who gloats
It’s about the actual concept
That we all don’t want to accept

Why should we have to, I say
Get together after a long day
Discuss issues we already disliked
Before it begins, get all psyched

I know, it may be necessary
Make the home not as scary
Fulfill the details of the criteria
Whether you live in Japan or Siria

But there must be a better way
To make decisions, even the ones that weigh
Why can’t we have some sort of forum
We can do online without words or volume?

I know, speaking sacrilege
But I am willing to pay homage
To any better ideas or plans
We could just fight it out like Afghans

Just kidding, we are all Christians
We have to make compromises and bargains
What was I saying again?
Oh,no more home councils! Amen!

Wow, this section is really hoppin’

Methinks I’ve struck a chord somewhere.

10. Me - November 7, 2006

Nah, just rhyming for the heck of it! Even if HCs have always been a painful topic…

11. i love Jules - November 8, 2006

apparently you don’t live with me,
HC at my home is pure joy …(not),
there are points of all topics and lengths,
i live with musicians, you see…(hot).

furthermore i must add,
not only can they sing and wail,
what makes it really fun is,
every musician is male!

and knowing my (singing) Home as i do,
i’m pretty sure sometime soon,
they’ll make it a HC karaoke,
to take away Home Council gloom.

12. Me - November 8, 2006

Hey, what a great idea
All of our homes should be a
Karaoke-induced organization
That would definitely be a sensation

But what about some of us
That don’t like the fuss
But can’t hold a note
Not even just to vote?

Would that be a fair trial?
Or would it make some live in denial?
Not having musical talent could
Make their opinion not quite as good

We need to find another solution
A better way to draw a conclusion
How about a poetry competition
Speak in rhymes to make a decision

But that takes us back to square one
For some it just wouldn’t be fun
Some people are better at some things
That can’t prejudice our meetings

Excuse my being critical
But HCs have never been at all
My favorite evening of the week
But for that I don’t want to critique

All the people that really strive
To make all the different opinions jive
For this problem still seeking a solution
Again I say, abolish the institution

Pray for me, my brothers, as I will pray for you!
