THE STORY: THE CONSEQUENCES OF GOOSING, is a wryly humorous study of the sad/funny problems that beset a middle-aged corporate attorney when, in a fit of euphoria, he apparently gooses a shapely young high-school girl on his way home from the office. The first question is: “Did he or didn’t he?” The other (but equally important) questions are: Will his wife, his law partners, and society in general forgive him if he did? Needless to say, the answers to these questions provide moments of high humor, not to mention some telling insights into human nature.
