A Likely Story

When Warren Plowright asked his girlfriend to marry him, she said no, that he was too boring, safe and idealistic. That was on his birthday. Three days later he was racing across the country with the FBI and the Mob chasing after him.

Danger did not defeat Plowright; it strengthened him, made him more compassionate and innovative and caused him to see life as more than his record collection and successful business. Truth, Justice and the American Way became his maxim. Courage became his life.
