Harold Anderson (Garry Shandling) is a visitor from a faraway, all-male, procreatively challenged planet. His mission on earth is to impregnate a woman and bring their offspring home for breeding purposes. To accomplish the task, he has been equipped with an artificial metal penis, which hums audibly when its interest is, shall we say, aroused. Why does it do that? Because "it doesn't know the words," snaps Linda Fiorentino, playing a woman immune to Harold's charms...
...another top Administration figure is thinking about a new job, but this one is a bit unusual. It is in a faraway land and comes with a beautiful castle with uniformed guards at the gate.

The frantic theming and ubiquitous Wolfgang Puck eateries--which make Vegas one of the best restaurant cities in the U.S.--are artful distractions from all that money visitors lose...
Precious few students take ideas so seriously; those who do tend to be either devout Christians struggling within a Fallen world or social justice zealots roused to a frothing fervor by mistreated proletarians in faraway lands. Students are politically apathetic, we're told by countless pundits who 30 years ago proved conclusively the virtues of the same apathy they now decry. But political apathy isn't as much the problem as is intellectual lethargy--a much more troubling ailment in which so many Core courses are complicit...
