Splendor in the Grass (a summary)

It's a time when people who lived in multi-story houses and slept on gorgeous wooden sleigh beds were "poor" and oil tycoons were one-dimensionally (and all at once) limpy, loud and boisterous ... when young women lost their minds because their boyfriend wanted to sleep with them - and as a result of needing to say "we mustn't!" one too many times, threw themselves in a river ... when a quick dip in the water could leave you on death's door ... when people had long-term stays in sanitariums because their home lives were unsatisfying ... when a boy from Kansas had never heard of something called "pizza", and a girl in Connecticut didn't know where Kansas was.  Also, Phyllis Diller.

I should have hooked up my VCR and watched Dune again.  That would have made more sense.
