...gets the point across. Valerie sang an amusing blues piece in which she descended to the pit and flirts with pianist Alex Healy '02 (who wrote the song). The coyly effeminate Pp (Adam Kline '02) danced a bizarre music-video parody on the subject of black leather. Annie Tigani '02, as one of several dimwitted Wellesley girls, sang a gratuitous but excellent song (by Jihwan Kim '02 and Rachel Eisenhaure '02) about "wanting a Harvard Man." (I hope no one from Wellesley saw the show.) Orchestra conductor Lembit Beecher '02 provided an even more gratuitous but very funny paean...

...meet our ride outside 14 Plympton at 11 p.m. on Sunday night. It's a BMW 5-series, all-leather interior, CD-carriage in the trunk. A pleasant surprise. Next we meet our driver. It's Daniel, a 5'3" Asian-American boy with wire-rim glasses and a mouth full of orthodontic gear. He's a friend of a friend. As we watch him empty his back seat of miscellaneous papers, books and WWF action figures, we wonder--the first of many such doubts--what the hell we are doing. "Daniel," Aaron asks, "How many car accidents have...

But when warm weather brings out daisy dukes, tube tops and the requisite strappy sandals, rancid foot sufferers are caught in a bind. Do they dare to bear their toes and risk losing their friends to the stench? Smelly feet aren't a total loss. Andrew D. Hackbarth `99 attributes the name of his party-prone room in Kirkland House, The Swamp, to his roommate's notorious foot odor problem. But usually, the revealing skin of open toe cleavage, spaghetti...

Bill Bradley's leather shoes are cracked, and his suit and tie--as he makes a point of telling me at a doughnut shop in Claremont, near the Vermont border--are suffering through their second straight campaign day. For the former New Jersey Senator, an insurgent trying to grab the Democratic nomination from Al Gore, genteel shabbiness signifies authenticity. Bradley wants you to know he's got bigger things--purer things--on his mind, and the doughnut shop is packed with people who have come to hear about them (and a few who just want coffee and crullers). Ten months...

...beginning of the show may seem promising to most but foretells ultimate doom to us hard-core Tommy connoisseurs. A crowd of actors wearing "interpretational" black costumes of various sorts--most of the men are in leather or vinyl pants, and one tall woman wears her hair in disgustingly cute pigtails--belt out the dates and settings of scenes in incomprehensible British accents. They go on to mimic war planes, perform a bad faux jitterbug that's not even in Townshend's original score and basically stand around looking useless for irritatingly long periods of time...
