"Ode to a Spitoon"
0 constant chum, my faithful
friend,
You shall be with me till the end:
A can of Coke of Country Time
Provides for my obnoxious crime
A resting place, a final fate
For things that I expectorate.
With you at my side I'm heard:
Self proclaiming self as nerd.
Into you my brain could fit,
Apt companion for my spit.
***
To the Good-Lookin' Male in

1 sure wish'you'd give me a call

"The rubbers have all slid down on
their posts." —G.M.G, KTRU
***
If you can't get it in,, get it off.
—Mr. Gravity
We scurry 'round in search of time
And lose the precious moments
...of a special hour, a special
person...
And the close friendship, the
happiness we shared.
Thank you for believing in me,
And with me
Share my dreams of yesterday and
the hopes of tomorrow.

destruction of timber or other
building materials. We plan to
remain active throughout the
summer, so even though it is late in
the semester, if you are interested,
come in and see us or call Tom at
