"I'd like to propose a toast, if I may." Ansel Kendrick was tapping on his glass. Ansel's barber was not an uncommon sight on the elevator. No doubt, she had been there today. The edge of his combed gray hair was razor sharp. One button held the coat of his charcoal suit across his trim abdomen. I was loathed to admit that Ansel had charisma to go with the...
It was an environmental disaster. But by the time folks realized what was going on, no one seemed to care. The project started innocently enough. A quarterly planning meeting at Enozyme Pharmaceuticals. Product managers had been asked to bring a one page proposal for their best new drug idea.

"...of 99 and a low of 70. Folks, its going to be a scorcher. Now moving in from the east-" "There's nothing on," you mutter, taking a sip of warm, flat soda from yesterday and grimacing as you shut off the TV.

1. 'Gr0w your c0ck b1gg3r!' 'Get l@rg3r now!!' 'ENLARGE UR MANH00D!' The daily flood filled Tara's spam folder along with the rest of the world's. It didn't bother her a bit. In a few years, when anyone thought of actual penis enlargement, they'd be thinking of her. Well, they'd be thinking of Gen-U-Tech, at any rate, Tara corrected herself mentally as...
Soft white LED tube lights filled the simple room. Within the room was a huge table lined with high walls. The room was sterile and white and even shadows were seemingly banished by the array of lights. Five black cameras watched the table, four in the corners and a large dome camera directly above. Dr. Bowman looked up from the monitors on the table before...
Art, part two. Ch. 03 Art meets laboratory staff charged with making him "normal". It was a long night with lots of thoughts or maybe more like nightmares and I felt lousy when I finally did wake up. I could hear Suzanne in the bathroom, but for some reason I didn't join her. I was still deep in thought when I heard her say, "Good, you're awake. I'll order...

Dr. Porneau's Pet: Part 2 by Prevert One Dr. Armand Porneau, who was neither dead nor missing, watched the beautiful young woman splashing playfully in his pool. "Wow!" he thought, "I've seen some big'uns in my time, but damn! Thank you Ms. Wells and thank you God for creating her." Dr. Porneau's knowledge of Tiffany was acquired through etat du art t...
Author's note: This is my first submission and I've got a bit of stage fright. I'm posting three chapters of what I hope will be a long story. Because my story stretches the imagination a bit, I'm uncertain about what tags might be misleading. I enjoyed writing about Art's adventures and I hope you enjoy reading about them. I appreciate all comments: good,...
