Once upon a time gallivanting meant hanging out at the local store and eating Zagnut candy bars. Grizzard had a driver's license and a blond girl friend. "Gay" meant "happy and carefree" and kids were raised to love their country and never question authority. Thn came drugs, free love, and wormy-looking, long-haired English kids---and everything seemed to change. But Grizzard hasn't given up hope. He offers survial tips, remembrances, and belly laughs on everything from singles bars and New Women to French fries and Frisbees in what may be the best remedy yet for fities nostalgia and eightites blues.
