This is a minor fantasy, a bagatelle to be taken with tongue-in-cheek if, tent-in-pants, or not at all. I've shut off the voting function in order to deprive the voting vandals of the opportunity to abuse their right to vote. So if you enoy this romp for what it is, i'd love to hear from you. It was a few years ago, before 9/11; before the presidential ele...
The young very attractive barmaid was walking toward where the woman was setting at the far end of the very crowded bar. The girl set a second glass of white wine next to the one she had ordered earlier; one still more than half full. "I didn't order another drink." The dark haired beauty said. The server, a beauty in her own right, was quite tall and slim...
I spent a good deal of the early 80’s in the part of the Middle East known as the ‘Levant’ – Lebanon, Israel mostly, plus a few sides trips to places like Egypt and Turkey. It was during this time that I developed an appreciation for Middle-Eastern women with their thick, dark hair, their flashing, almond-shaped deep brown eyes, their olive complexions. And...
The time had come, Azman thought to himself. Two years after being brought on board as an apprentice management trainee, Azman now had the same position Earl had occupied when he had chosen Azman to prepare him for the higher duties he now performed. Earl now was the president of the company and showed his favor of Azman by keeping him here in the states, al...
It was a slow night and Zinda found herself standing around with nothing to do. The Birds of Prey were on a mission in Old Gotham, but they didn't need a pilot, so she was stuck at home, babysitting Blackfire in her isolation cell. Even Barbara was going off to hack into a physically isolated computer system from her battle van. Zinda couldn't help thinking...
The Angel and Me The stifling heat had finally broken, and a storm was descending on New York City. I shook the water from my hat, dropped it on the table, and looked around. It was the usual, sad, 3 a.m. Friday fraternity. "Hey, Joe! Daniels with a twist of lemon." I reserved bourbon for the bad weeks. Three paternity investigations, a pyramid scam, and a...
The sun was barely above the horizon and the roller door was opening. As it edged up, it showed a well set up workshop. Standing in pride of place was a tarp covered machine. It was apparent to the knowing eye it was a big motorbike. He walked up to it and carefully folded the tarp off it, slowly exposing its shiny chrome and metallic paint. It was his pride...
Helen and carol entered the elevator and pushed the button for the ground floor. Once the elevator got under way Helen turned to Carole. "I need you to understand that I meant every word I said back there in Nicole's room. I am going to find you daughter and that piece of shit Craig and they are going to pay. I need you to understand, that I will use every...
Author's Note: Okay, this one is to make up for all the months I made you go without Reni and Dev. I admit I decided you all needed a break from all the troubles and tribulations the two of them have been suffering. It was pretty clear to me that Dev and Reni needed a break from them too, so the following is a weekend getaway at a fancy hotel and you can gu...
"Want another beer?" Sue asked, rising from the porch swing, where she had been relaxing. "Sure, I might as well. I'll probably be through with this one by the time you get back," I answered still looking out across the yard at the thick woods, starting to darken in the growing dusk. The house was surrounded on three sides by several miles of heavily fore...
