I had just arrived back from lunch and after getting myself a coke from the break room, I made my way to my desk. Right there, in plain sight, was a flyer for a contest coming up in a few weeks for a local charity. Our company always participated in any charitable event that is […]

Sally; Breasts Of My Own
I earned my living as a consultant, advising people in how to invest their money and hold on to what they had in today’s economy. I purposefully selected only female clients, most males think they know better and do not listen to the advice I give them. Then, when they lose a chunk, they blame […]

Sis came bounding into my room, out of breath and obviously excited. It was late, almost one AM and she apparently had just returned from her date with Mark. She plopped down on my bed, grabbed my remote for the stereo and turned it down. I stuck my tongue out at her, a normal occurrence […]

I was attempting to enjoy my first day of summer vacation, when I was called into Dad’s office. I had just completed my sophomore year, the second year in a row where I had held a 4.0 grade average during the whole year. Being the youngest of three males in the family I was being […]

I had built my realty business up from a single office to well over three hundred offices, now I needed to sell the business or find some investors badly before I had to declare bankruptcy. The recent downturn in the economy had hit my company hard, causing me to curtail activities severely. It had not […]

I had taken the advice of a co-worker and made an appointment at a new salon in town for a haircut. My old male barber had retired, looking for other barbers in the yellow pages proved to be an effort in futility. Realistically, I don’t think old time barbers even exist anymore. I had almost […]

I have been at college for over a year now. It is a small private institution with an enrollment of around five-thousand students. Since it is a private school, it had no state or federal intrusion as to curriculum or admission standards. The school lacked some of the fancier frills that the larger universities have, […]
