“I’d rather be an optimist and a fool, than a pessimist and right” (Albert Einstein). It’s the summer of ’61 and fifteen-year-old Firpo has escaped the sweltering Bronx and gone up the lake to spend his vacation. He’s decided to find a girlfriend, a steady, just like the cool guys on American Bandstand dance with in South Philly. He figures it will be a cinch. What Firpo doesn’t figure on are the confounding consequences that result from mixing teenage hormones with young and stupid mental states. Journey back to a more innocent time as Firpo and his merry band of friends set out on a quest for love and the answer to life’s sweet mystery in the land of foolish optimists.
