"As I speed along the two-lane blacktop lined with joshua trees, I open my sun roof, crank up a live version of Take Five and think that, as far as women are concerned, I finally did something right." Memories of a fair and just childhood, from age eight to 48 and beyond, explain "Why Stevie Can't Date" is a collection of puckish tales about good and bad women; trying to cultivate the Playboy image at 17 and suddenly meeting a celebrity father who writes for Penthouse; and growing up straight while straddling a line between California and Nevada; the Golden State and Hollywood; the Silver State with its open roads and attitudes; and panorama of entertainment; from Jack Benny to blackjack; from bull riding to brothels; from the drudgery of a low-level casino job to the perks on the next rung; from hitch-hiking across the country to meeting the mayor of New York City; from romances that didn't work to romances that did for a while. This book presents sardonic remembrances of subtle adventures by a man who is "in varying degrees, agoraphobic, alcoholic and misanthropic", probably from having lived the reasons "Why Stevie Can't Date".
