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:
