Working in Canberra, Australia, has some good points, and some bad points- like any city I guess. The good points is that it's not a big city so I can get out onto the open road on my Ducati quickly and enjoy the ride. The down side is that as the capital city of Australia, all the politicians come here. But, them being here is why I'm here -- to be able to...
"Why don't you just call it 'Emission: Impossible' or 'Climate Commando' and be done with it?" Malcolm Coates wasn't exactly thrilled by "Operation Zenith," the screenplay his girlfriend Ashleigh Lillian Kirby had written. He was convinced that making such a film would wreck his career again. Yet Ashleigh was nothing if not persistent. "You don't see the...
I don't know why it happens, it just does. I have spoken to my psychiatrist about it, but he didn't really say why he thought it happened. He said something about low self-esteem and that sort of thing, but it didn't make a great deal of sense to me at the time. The first time it happened was an accident. I am 24 now but I was pretty slow when it came to...
Alyce Walsh knew that tonight would be special. A part of her, however, wished this night would never have to come. Walsh had risen to become the first foreign-born executive editor of Metropolis magazine, a role she had served in for five years before receiving a lucrative offer to become the editor-in-chief of Harbour Magazine, the most popular publicatio...
Right now, Australian-born sportswoman and CNN Woman of the Year Award winner Athena Pauline Kensington is exactly where she was born to be. The six-foot-six, broad-shouldered, chubby-but-still-fit, blonde-haired and green-eyed, Caucasian WNBA-All-Star player lay in bed, completely naked, her strong arms and chubby, thunderous thighs firmly bound by chains....
I think all human beings are bad news. Doesn't matter what their race or gender is. Even people who have been mistreated throughout history turn around and do the same exact thing to innocent others. It never ceases to amaze me. The bigotry some minorities can have for other minorities. Take my submissive Ahmed Aimren for example. He's a Middle-Eastern guy l...
I was hooked from the moment I heard her accent. I was just finishing dinner at the Reprise when I heard her. She had the sweetest, most beautiful Australian accent; even though she was clearly agitated on the phone, the beauty of her voice was greater than the anguish of her words. I didn't want her to stop talking. She hung up the phone and stepped away...
Ashleigh Fisher wondered why he kept glancing away. The very handsome brown-skinned man sitting one table away from her would look at her for a brief moment, then look away. No man who looked that good could be that shy, she thought. What's up with him? Yes, he was the only black man at this reception hall, but that couldn't bother him, right? Ashleigh cou...
Monica Witt couldn't believe that she was about to come—and that her dreams were about to come true. It had been nearly 30 years since she had first fallen in love. She was just nine years old when her parents took her to see Michael Jackson in concert during the "Bad" tour in Brisbane. She thought Michael was the most gorgeous man who had ever lived, and t...
August 12, 2024 "Good evening, and welcome to The Breakdown. I'm your host, Mindy Loeb, and tonight we have a guest who's in, shall we say, just a tiny bit of controversy..." The normally laid-back star of the Roosevelt Network had an extremely high energy level tonight-and who could blame her? This was a major, major get. "My guest has appeared here befo...
