One grew up in the 40's and 50's during WWII and Elvis and the other grew up in the 70's and 80's during Vietnam and Disco. Their stories are similar, but the progression into another world is evident. As boys in a small town they talk about how important neighbors were, their bicycles, the local movie theater, and the town they loved - Barrrington, Illinois. Take a step back in time to the 20th century when there were no cell phones, computers, or video games like XBOX.
