Knocked me clear from New England to Olde England, from Connecticut–to Camelot. Suddenly, there I was–with King Arthur, Launcelot, Morgan le Fay, and that faker, Merlin. I was trapped in the sixth century, surrounded by jousts and chivalry and idiots in armor bashing other idiots in armor! But I’m resourceful; I looked for opportunities. And King Arthur’s court needed a few improvements. Like soap. Toothpaste. Baseball. Electricity, factories, newspapers, telephones, trains, bicycles…free elections. In short, these folks need a double dose of good ole American know-how. They needed a Boss. They needed–Me.
