Volume 2: Bicentennial Man and the Dumbo Octopus are still locked in an epic 50/50 battle:
Finally, in third round action, Man of the Year is re-named Stupefaction of the Year as it pummels the Antarctic Octopus!

Mork & Darwin: Volume 3
We’re back with another life-changing installment of Mork & Darwin. Robin Williams’ Bulworth wannabe Man of the Year squares off in a death match with the terrifying Antarctic octopus. May the best powdered wig win!
In other exciting news, next week we’ll reveal the results of the 2009 Mork & Darwin face-offs. It’ll be handy to have something to discuss with the family over the Christmas goose.

YIL Presents: Mork & Darwin Volume 2
After a tremendous response to Volume 1 of our Mork & Darwin series, we’re back with round two. This week we ask you to carefully determine the following: which is more stupefying, Bicentennial Man or the Dumbo octopus?

YIL Presents: Mork & Darwin, Volume the First
Today, in honor of Darwin Year, we bring you a new weekly YIL feature: Mork & Darwin.
Mork & Darwin is the brainchild of YIL friend Will. He posits that for every discovery of an incredibly odd head-scratcher of a deep sea creature, there is an equally odd head-scratcher of a Robin Williams movie. Mork & Darwin, now a regular YIL feature, puts that hypothesis to the test. Each week, Will plans to present us with a perfect pairing of ocean dweller and Williams film. Your job is to vote for which is more stupefying.
Without further ado, I give you Mork & Darwin, Volume the First:
