Years ago I had a computer game for my XT on two 360k floppies. It was called "The Pleasure Dome". I still have it somewhere. One floppy was for men, one for women. Once loaded the player had to chat up the opposite sex. Good chat led to higher levels and a better response from your date. Poor or hackneyed lines meant that you were stood up. It was all text-...

Terri and I did a final check for clothes, parts of clothes, and pocket contents. Except for a few buttons, we finally agreed that we had recovered all that we could and proceeded to drive back to camp. Terri seemed to be enjoying the scenery as we drove back to the campground. Since we were going mostly downhill now, we got more nice views than when we we...
Dungeon. That was the only real name for the land they all lived in. In a massive underground complex, spanning one hundred and fifty "Floors", each larger and more treacherous than the last. In the center of each Floor, a large "City" could be found. Each was in ruins until the facilities were unlocked by the lucky adventurers that manag...

So, Dear Journal, Since I don't write in you often, I'll have to start from the beginning and tell you everythin...
Tori Amos' "Silent All These Years." That was the last song I heard before I was placed in a psych ward. Most people referred to it as a "nuthouse" or a "loony bin." I thought that those terms were rather crude. Case Number 65-667-767. Max Alexander Colvin. Hospitalized three times for acute depression and suicidal thoughts. Suicide attempts were unsuccessf...
Ch. 4 After the women returned from their showers - dressed again - the men went to take their own. When they returned the girls had gotten food ready and the six sat down to eat. The thunderstorms had mostly passed with only an occasional flash of lightening remaining. It was past sundown, but they could see the sky was beginning to clear. Conversation, no...
