| Sam: (narrating) It was August 8, 1953, literally the day I was born. But instead of nursing at my mother’s breast, I was nursing my third beer in a vain attempt to make sense out of this bizarre leap. I had leaped into a coal-mining tavern peopled with names and faces both strange and familiar to me. But the biggest surprise was that I was me. For the first time in years the reflection in the mirror was mine, grey hair, crow’s feet, and all. So why had I leaped here? What wrong was I to put right? And where in God’s name was Al? I was desperate for answers. So desperate I was even looking for them....
| Ziggy Ziganovich: (referring to the computer Ziggy) Not much of a looker, huh?
Sam: I wouldn’t let her hear you say that.
| Sam: (narrating) If I’m Don Quixote, Al’s my Sancho.
