In 1976, the elderly Judge Aitchison hunkers down in his favorite parlor chair, sips a libation, nods off, and dreams of the time back in 1915 when his Kansas high school expelled him for staging a school play the administration and town elders branded "one of those risqué girly shows".

Autorenporträt
Tom Rhoads has written, directed and produced some of the more yawn-provoking industrial, educational, and promotional shows audiences have ever slept through, epics such as "How to Make an Eye Splice in Wire Rope," "The Housewares Story," and the classic, "Machines That Test the Machines That Test Shock Absorbers." Over his career his shows have anesthetized more people than the Cleveland Clinic. For his less offensive crimes against eyeballs and ears he garnered honors like Cine and Telly awards, a local Emmy nomination (didn't win), and numerous other accolades few people have ever heard of. Tom hadn't either. Then he set aside the trunk of scripts he had written to write a novel about his maternal grandfather, Ned Aitchison, and his ill-fated impresarioship. As for education, Tom muddled through Kansas University and they gave him a degree in journalism for his muddling. They do that a lot. He is married, you can ask his wife, Linda, and he once did live in Columbus, Kansas-when he was four. And also five.
