...into the glass. Instantly I addered a mastiff slug of raw animal spirits, with ice-"crocs on the rocks"-thrush snaking my thirst in a swallow. Delicious. Pity I had no horse d'oeuvre. Such a stag party may never be held again. On the otter hand, I wonder wether the savoir-fare of your report could be repeated? Please pardon my chick in asping, but to meat my wish, please: moa, moa! Tiger best you can, hmhm...

...course. Its "blatant sexual imagery" (sic) was an additional complicating factor, though for the complaining student who visited the CRIMSON office in high dudgeon, this factor seems to have overridden any concern for the film's artistic merit or academic relevance.

Socialization has immunized man against the wonder and mystery of existence, argues Oxford Theologian Ian Ramsey. "We are now sheltered from all the great crises of life. Birth is a kind of discontinuity between the prenatal and post-natal clinics, while death just takes somebody out of the community, possibly to the tune of prerecorded hymns at the funeral parlor."
