Four smart kids. One busy town. Bowie Brown plays guitar – and uses it as an assault weapon. Mimi Bucher lives in a secret bedroom in a shopping mall. Jaz McGuire is determined to never grow up and to never hear mention of ess ee ex. Hoot Howard collects waterfalls – until somebody steals them. Hoot has a mother with lime-green hair. Bowie has a father who sings to a ghost. Jaz has a mother who is too Chinese. Mimi has nobody at all. A couple of neighbors nicknamed Curly and Moe just might be starting a multi-billion dollar software company in a garage – if only they can cash their first check. It’s the beginning of another year of school in Menlo Park, California in the year 1998, a time of change, the end of a millennium. I try to be funny. I try to be humane. Mixing story and original music I try to present likable people who grow as you listen. Besides myself, the voices are Susan Walker, Caroline Graham, Michael Minard, and Patrick Bradley. The music is by Will Fourt.
