...team to victory. FM faced handicaps from the start, namely intoxication from consumption of dangerously fluorescent wine coolers and the conspicuous absence of Gossip Gizzuy and his two points’ worth of gratuitous letters. But the FM team did not go gentle into the good nizzight: Aforementioned trash-talker Benjamin D. Mathis-Lilley ’03 fought the good fight, asking if S-E-I-N-E was a word, or just, you know, a river. Mathis-Lilley was dealt a massive cock-block in the third round by Kenyon S.M. Weaver ’03, when both...

Glamourpuss feels a tap on her shoulder. Oh dear. A Talker. His guise: an exchange of reading material.
