...points, The Mollusk strays from the misguided water creature stories, coming alive on songs that happily reject oceanic representation for unadorned raucousness and personal sentiment. "The Blarney Stone" is an Irish pub romp of sex and drunken chicanery ("Who's that girl, that pretty young thing/After I fuck her she'll get up and sing/Sharpen your boot, bludgeon your eye/The Blarney Stone brings a tear to me eye") that sticks out like a sore thumb.

...rock and shone their dazzling light on the oily squirmings thus revealed. Knowledge is power; so armed, we may yet turn the tide. If we fail, we could cross that 21st century bridge into a land like Brazil (1985), Terry Gilliam's vastly incredible, exquisitely surreal romp through a near future in which bureaucracy is lord and master.

After a 28-4 romp over Wellesley, Harvard stood at 10-0 overall, 4-0 in the Ivy League. Tied atop the standings was Yale, and the Crimson traveled to face the Eli on February...
