Travelers Aid, In the 50's when air travel was in its infancy, most Americans traveled by train, or bus, even more than traveled by automobile as the interstate highway system was years away from being completed. Servicemen, Army, Navy, Air Force and Marines utilized the trains and buses almost exclusively, as the railroads and bus companies extended conside...
It was Saturday night, the last night of my three-day conference in Denver. I work for an electronics company and my boss sent me to see the new products on his behalf. He had to be with his wife who was having a baby. I didn’t mind except that I left on bad terms with my husband. He had planned for us to go camping without the kids and when this came up he...
Sheri and I had "met" on the internet. We both had the same sort of things on our minds, although not exactly the same. She had once been a model, but now was past the point age-wise where she could command the sort of work she once had. She was still damned attractive, the sort of woman that every guy wanted to get naked with. She oozed of sexuality. Her th...
*Author's Note: I saw a movie by this name several months ago and tried to watch it. I only made it about fifteen minutes before losing interest, but it gave me an idea for a story (completely unrelated to the movie.) I hope you enjoy it. ***** "So what did you think?" "It was okay." "Just okay?" "Yeah, I mean I don't really like doing the machines. The...
After his basketball team's fifth straight win of the evening, at the Vulva Street YMCA. Apollo went over to the bleachers to distribute hugs, kisses and handshakes liberally to the Kama Sutra study group, from his spiritual center, 'The United Ministries of the Insatiable Holy Spirit', who had come to watch him play. When Apollo was done with his public ob...
(Welcome to 1950s mid-West America.) One night over dinner the subject came up, the awful embarrassing subject. It was raised by Rodney's twin sister and their female cousin who lived with them in their house on Elm Street, Brewer. They raised it to embarrass Rodney, the shy 18 year old who struggled with his grades at Grover Cleveland High. Rodney was a...
It was Friday, and Jesse Anderson waited, fretfully, on the front fender of his rebuilt 1980 Camaro for his twin sister to finish cheerleading tryouts. It was their senior year of high school and the tryouts where more of a formality for her then anything else. Since doing gymnastics since kindergarten and being on the cheerleading squad since junior high, s...
As I looked down at my sleeping wife, I shook my head, and once again marveled at how little I understood about what made her tick. Wearing my usual work garb of a blue suit, stripped tie, on a white shirt, with shined black shoes, I picked up my lap top, brief case, and cell phone, and went through the garage to my car. The last three days had been real s...
It was Monday morning. Nick Gibson got to work, turned on his computer, and went to get a cup of coffee while it booted up. When he got back and opened his email inbox, he immediately noticed a message at the bottom of the list. The sender was Patsy Greene. The subject was "Do you remember me?" Patsy Greene. He remembered her very well. They had been in the...
Note: If you've read my other stories, you may notice a recurrence of names. I like using my first and middle names in my stories. That away I really get a feel for my writing. Like the others this is a fictional story. * * * * * Damn I was feeling relaxed. Hanging out in the YMCA near my house, meditating and listening to the water as it splashed in the...
