I couldn't imagine Travis Bickle driving anything but a Checker. There's that ominous but striking scene at the beginning when his vehicle emerges from a cloud of steam. With Bernard Herrmann's music on the soundtrack, it sets the tone for the rest of the movie. A very American product, Checker Motors operated out of Kalamazoo, MI. It was created in 1922 fr...
Featured in this chapter: Cobra - Ben Luscious Lips - Dodie Clark. Neon signs and giant screens illuminated the Mega city skyline, high rise apartment buildings towered across the city, standing tall against but one building, a giant skyscraper that read JUGS CORP. in bold pink lettering. Standing in the window of one of the apartment building a man looked o...
We sat sipping our coffee while nibbling on a pastry, enjoying the cozy comfort the book store offered.

Monday hadn't told him what time to be there, and he didn't feel like waiting. She had said she was going to break the rules, and he fervently hoped she wanted to break them thoroughly. He was skipping his physics class for th...
PROLOGUE For two years running Derek Chambers had been the Headmaster at the prestigious Ravenwoode Academy, an elite private school in New England. He loved his job, and not just because of the fact that all of the students and about ninety percent of the staff were female, though that was certainly a plus. He enjoyed the power and control of his position...
It was a cold winter that year, I was thankful that I was snugly ensconced in a warm fur coat, with a fur muff for my hands. Warm and toasty. Blake was driving me to an event for charity about two hours away from home. He was driving slowly as there was fresh ice on all the roads.

Not very interested in what she had to teach anyway. George and Andrew were far more interested to learn what she would look like naked -- to see what an oriental vagina looked like. They h...
My wife Sandy and I (Brett) are both forty five years old and had been contemplating swinging for many years. We both agreed that we would wait until the kids had left the nest before we pursued any of our fantasies.
