Sherry Sokolowski began at Mueller and Mueller as a high school co-op student; a minimum wage job that was supposed to give the student some experience in a real-life job setting. From the very beginning, she showed great promise. She had taken a number of accounting classes in high school and she was enthusiastic, charming as well as being a cute kid, in a...

21st Century Censorship (What is Obscene or Indecent...can you please tell me?), and the Hypocrisy of the FCC Shit. Piss. Fuck. Cunt. Cocksucker. Mother-fucker. Tits. Those are the so called 7 dirty words you can't say on an on-air broadcast. Since George Carlin famously said those seven dirty words over 30 years ago, a few have been added as well. Asshole,...
Late one Sunday morning, two gentlemen were sitting in the corner of the large, oak-paneled hall of their alumni club. It must have been at least ten years ago, when one could still smoke in New York; one was beginning to refill his pipe. As he loosened the tobacco in the round tin, he suddenly snorted with a slight smile. He continued to scratch his fingers...

I knew things weren't going to be easy. I had been trying to date Faye Carlton for three years. She consistently turned me down until the night of my eighteenth birthday party. She showed up way late for the party and caught me in the backyard with Susan Merriman. We were only kissing, but from the way that Faye acted you would have thought she nailed us nak...
Jaimin stretched her hands up, locked her elbows, and gazed in between her hands. The white leather ball swiftly appeared, slipped in between her fingers, and smacked her flat on her coke-bottle-bottom glasses with the wire frame. Her facial skin was singing from the slap of hard pumped leather. She stepped around disoriented. Her mouth gaped like a fish on...
The Schmidt family shivered at the terrifying orders, shouting and screaming echoing down Oranienburger Strasse. Once or twice a pistol went off. The Jewish quarter was alive with fear, the Star of David daubed on doors, the painted swastikas, street by street, every night for days. Now it was their turn, the rap on the door speaking volumes of doom. "We ha...
Lily gripped the end of her whip as she studied the man hunched on the stool before her. He was tall, unusual for her customers. Usually the pathetic worms she beat on were no more than five feet tall, thin shouldered and gaunt faced. She refused to touch them, but they begged to touch her. At twenty-five she had the body most girls couldn't get, even with s...
The phone rang and Derek dropped grabbed the basketball and dropped to one knee to see who was calling. On the screen it read "Suz". His heart beat a little faster and he quickly answered the call. "Hey Derek" she said, her sweet voice oozing over the line. "H-H-Hi," he stammered. "I heard you were in town and I didn't know if you wanted to get togethe...
