The 3rd periodic 340 Club Reunion has been postponed indefinitely

Before there was an Animal House there was a 340 Club; before there was a Dean Wormer there was a Harold "the fuck" Martin; before there was John Blutarsky or a Daniel Simpson Day there was Tim Lutter, Sil Simpson, Dan Joyce, Tim Getzloff, Dick Lichty, Jim Shay, Phil Zangari, Chris Joyce, Dave Petkosh, Mitch Herr, Kenny Giltner, Dean Staherski, Randy Brown, John Emswiler, Sue Krimmell Emswiler and myself; before there were any Delta Tau Chi pledge pins, there were 340 Club cards; before Otis Day & the Knights, the 340 Jukebox; before there were Delta Brothers there were the usual gang of idiots that congregated at 328, 340 (twice) and 338 West King Street in Lancaster, Pennsylvania for a decade beginning in August 1974. This blog is dedicated to those idiots and those times. God bless Kenny, Mitch and Chris; may they rest in peace.

From The Poet Laureate

Strange Bedfellows by Christopher Joyce

The new day dawns and your heart begins to stir,
Words of love linger on and you don't forget her,
You know the time again will comean she won't forget you,
You've no need to care about what you've set about to do.

With your love you've come to realize there more than yourself
You take your malice and jealousy and cast them on a shelf
You join as one and then you find we are all as we are one,
With no need to hurry or worry as you find time has come undone.

Within her eyes you see nothing,
No sign of emotional debris,
But what you feel is as something,
That you'd dream could never be.

Where there is one within a pain,
Real happiness you will find there,
Should two as one alone adore,
As lovers why not three or four.

If two is one why isn't four,
The same as one except for more,
If this love is pure and true,
Would this be something bad to do

fyi:
Clactu's poetry appears every Wednesday.
340 Juke Box Classics every Friday.
340 Club trivia every Sunday.
