My bid to take over my electrical cooperative in order to ensure that Castle Argghhh! would get a co-generation plant built on-site failed as I was unable to unseat the incumbent board member at the Annual Meeting.
Of course, I was outnumbered. He's a farmer and he brought his family.
Hell, there were 35 door prizes and only 42 people present at the meeting, 6 of whom were ineligible for a door prize.
I didn't even win a door prize.
And because of the damn diet, I couldn't even eat the cookies.
This world domination thing is going to be harder than I thought. It seemed so simple, I was going to get elected to the board, then find a local twit to burn down the main office, get the President of the Board to abdicate in my favor, at which point I would promply stack the board with my cronies, suspend the by-laws, and move out smartly from there, taking over that little co-op to the east. After that, I'd settle the hash of those western co-ops and then move on to the prize - the Investor Owned Utility in a bloody proxy-battle to secure power for my peeps!
