As we walked into the kitchen from the garage, Suzy let out a little squeal of pleasure. The kitchen layout is great, but I didn't think it deserved that response. Obviously, she loved to cook and appreciated a well planned design. I showed her the rest of the house, starting with the living room. Then, I showed her the master bedroom, the Jacuzzi, sauna an...
It was raining and we still had nine or ten miles to go down the long glen before reaching a road and the dubious chance of a bus. I and two mates were backpacking in the Scottish highlands in our first university vacation. We'd bagged a couple of Munros, slept in a bothy, waded a few rivers and almost run out of food. We were sweaty, footsore and tired. 'T...
"Zabba zabba swee ba zabba dee da doo now!" Tom Waits is an acquired taste. His gravelly vocal technique is to Bob Dylan as Dylan's is to Sinatra. His lyrics are edgy, seedy, profane and often pornographic. But if you listen carefully and get beyond the voice you hear the incredible music and sheer poetry of the lyrics, the hall mark of true art songs since...
Why Grandma cries when the lights go out When I was young, I remember one winter day when my mother came home in tears. I was sitting on the porch waiting for her, wearing a brown doeskin jacket she had made for me the winter before. There was a dogwood tree in our front yard, and I could hear the dead leaves hanging from its limbs rustling in the easterly...
Roger a fifty-four years old widower lives in the southern part of the USA. He stood about five-foot five, has average weight, black hair, brown eyes, and a muscular build. He doesn't consider himself handsome, or someone women would find attractive. So he doesn't have an interested in looking for someone, or dating. He spends his week like the average man,...
I woke up gasping, a scream in my throat, hands flying to my chest where the bullet had struck me in the dream, throwing multiple blankets from my body. The movement brought a howl of pain from me as it pulled healing muscles and skin in my back and shoulders. The sound echoed nicely since I was still in Samu's kitchen, laying on my side atop his island, wra...
Being a demon is actually a pretty boring life, paper work still has to be done, food has to be cooked, money has to be earned and all the boring day to day activities follow forward into the hellfire dimensions too. Of cause, as such when you're finally allowed a week off, and get to play with your infinite powers on the Earthly plain of existence almost an...
Day 22 When Caitlyn woke up, she was hungry, and as always there was the disorientation of the unfamiliar surroundings. But these surroundings were coming more familiar by the day, and it was only a few moments before she realized, Oh, it's the apartment, that's my chest of drawers and we're in the big bed, and the hum is the computer, and it's New Year's E...
First off, let me say that this is my first ever story, so it will likely be a little bumpy at the get go, so I beg forgiveness. Stick with things and I assure you you'll be rewarded. I've labeled this story "Erotic Couplings" because that's the most general tag. The truth is that my tastes run all over the place; from fairly straight-forward eroti...
You are the last remaining member of your brotherhood of steel squad, the lowly scribe. Shortly after arrival in this small, out of the way town... if you can even call it a town...a super mutant attack hit. Smart, intelligent, and strong, they managed to kill the rest of your squad and half the town before the raiders hit. It was surprising at first, raider...
