Fifteen years from now, environmental and political scenarios of the
80's and 90's have played themselves out. Ozone depletion has made
going outside during the day a health risk and has flip-flopped the
American lifestyle. Most people now sleep during the
day and work at night!The
decisions made in the latter half of this century have turned the
21st century upside-down. The graveyard shift is now nine-to-five.
Everything is opposite, but there are still a few poor souls that
have jobs during daylight hours.
... One of them is Matt Ramsey - "DAY
GUY"
Matt's an average guy, with pretty much the same problems as you
and I:
- Parents - He has seven: His egg donor, his surrogate
mom, the couple that raised him, his sperm dad and, of course,
step parents. Matt is a genuine product of 20th century reproductive
technology.
- Love Life - His girlfriend isn't too wild about dating
in person - but hey - who needs it in the computer age? And talk
about safe-sex!
- Work - His
boss is the owner's son, oh yeah - and he's a dolphin!
His friend Stewart flies a taxi; cousin Towne is purposely
in prison to get his MBA; and Matt's surrogate mom, recently had
his test-tube bronzed!
He lives in the future, he dates his computer ...
...
ahhh - life is good! DAY GUY!
