She's not as dumb as she is beautiful
The Dumb Blonde
by Vanessa Evans
I thought I'd try something slightly different this time. This story is written from a male perspective.
All characters involved in any sexual activities in this story were over the legal age of consent when the events took place.
Part 01
Hi, my name's Pete and I am an accountant. Yeah I know, accountants are boring and what could they possibly have to write a story about? Well up until a few months ago I would probably have agreed with you, but my life has changed. This bubbly, blonde came into my life and no one could possibly call my life boring now.
I have this little accountancy business catering for a variety of small businesses who want to meet their legal requirements, but also pay as little tax as possible. You see I'm a specialist in finding legal ways of not paying taxes. One other thing that has made my business a success is that we are quite happy to go to our clients rather than having them come to us. Quite a few of them appreciate that as we can talk to them while they are still working.
I had 2 people working for me, Ethan, slightly older than me (29) and Liz, an 18 year old receptionist cum filing clerk cum tea girl cum everything else mundane; a GDB (general dogs body). She's not bad looking for a young girl, but she came to us straight from school and she fully admits that she will never have a career, just a job.
About 6 months ago I decided that we needed someone else to help Ethan and I but I didn't want to take on a qualified accountant and Ethan suggested that we get an intern, see what they were like and then let them go if they didn't come up to scratch or failed their accountancy exams.
I interviewed 3 people and was reading the cv of the next candidate just before she was due to arrive for the interview. On paper she looked good, an honours degree in mathematics, and from a good university.
When Liz brought Lucy in I was dumbstruck. She is gorgeous; every man's wet dream. I had real difficulty concentrating on the interview, but after just 5 minutes I knew that she had got the job.
Lucy was dressed in a business suit, tight black skirt just above the knee, black jacket and a white blouse with just a hint of a bra showing through it. Her face is out of this world; it's just like the best bits of all the top model's faces put into one. To top off her face she has this long blonde, straight hair. Her tits are high on her chest and looked the shape of that conical bra that Madonna wore in that video all those years ago. Her blue eyes have this look of innocence all the time.
I suppose the title of this story isn't really fair on Lucy because of her qualifications, and we soon discovered that Lucy is brilliant at absorbing information and regurgitating it on demand; but she doesn't have a lot of common sense. She's also inclined to believe everything that you tell her. She is always trying to please people; to such an extent that she makes me want to protect her innocence.
I later discovered that she has a 34B 24 28 figure; her 'B's are indeed very conical and as solid as they come. She has these gorgeous, suck-able, large nipples that seem to be rock hard all the time. Those long nipples are surrounded by small, dark areolas.
I fell in love with Lucy the day that she walked into my office and her internship was going to be a success whether or not Ethan agreed with me.
During that interview I explained that our dress code was quite informal, except when we were meeting certain clients; some are as relaxed as us, but some definitely aren't. Lucy was happy about this as she much preferred to be casual.
When she started her internship her clothes could be described as 'smart casual'; which fitted in well with the rest of us.
After about a week I just couldn't help myself; I just couldn't stay professional any longer; I asked her out on a date. She readily agreed and we met in a pub that night.
Lucy arrived wearing a mid-thigh mini skirt and a strappy V-neck cami top – no bra! Her nipples were poking little tents in the cami. She looked stunning and she blushed when I told her so.
I got us a drink and found us a seat. Lucy was sat facing the bar and I kept noticing people look at her. When I went to get our second drink I had to queue for a few minutes. I knew that I wasn't going to get served for a couple of minutes so I turned round, looked over to Lucy and thought how lucky I was.
"Bloody gorgeous that one." The man next to me said.
"Excuse me!"
"That blonde; you don't get many that good looking round here."
"No, I guess not." I replied.
As we were both staring at Lucy she looked up and over to me. She smiled and then did something that I just never saw coming. She uncrossed her legs and opened her knees just enough for me (and the bloke next to me) to see her white knickers. It only lasted a couple of seconds but I got an instant hard-on.
"Fucking hell!" the man next to me said, "some lucky bastard is in for a treat later tonight."
I smiled but didn't say anything.
"Who's next gents?" the barman asked.
I got our drinks and went back to Lucy.
We finished our drinks then I took her to a nice restaurant that I know. Half way through the meal she got up to go to the toilet and immediately bumped into an older woman that was passing.
When Lucy got back she was holding her top just where the spaghetti strap joined the rest of the cami at the front. She apologised saying that the strap had become detached when she's bumped into that woman; and that she needed to go home and change.
I told her that there was no need and that I would tell her if the cami started sliding too low. Lucy blushed saying that she didn't want to get thrown out for indecent exposure. She blushed again when I told her that it would be more like a very decent exposure if her breast did get exposed.
It did get exposed. As we talked and ate Lucy's top did slide down (a few times) and when it did I'd tell her and she'd blush and pull it back up. After about the third time that it slipped below her nipple I didn't tell her for ages, my eyes kept going from her face to her nipple and that solid breast. I hung back for as long as I dare before telling her that she was exposed; but this time I added,
"You have fantastic breasts you know."
Lucy blushed even more and said that she wished that she'd worn a bra. I asked her why she hadn't and she told me that she didn't really like bras; that she'd never been comfortable in them and anyway, her breasts didn't need any support. She told me that she didn't like having visible bra straps or straps or strings that dig into her. Lucy blushed again when I said,
"From what I've seen I have to agree with you; they look pretty solid to me. If it makes you more comfortable, you can come to work braless, except when we have formal meeting with the fuddy-duddy clients. I'm sure that Ethan won't mind; and Liz may not even notice."
Lucy thanked me and we got on with our meal.
Towards the end of the meal I decided to ask her if she realised that an awful lot of people stared at her.
"Yeah I know, it's sort of embarrassing but at the same time I like it. My dad used to say that it's because I'm so beautiful." Lucy said.
"And your dad was right, you are gorgeous."
"Why thank you kind sir."
After the meal I took Lucy to a club with her holding her left hand on the top of her right breast most of the time. While we were dancing she relaxed and her right breast emerged, she didn't bother pulling her top up until we left the dance floor.
We found a table in a quiet corner and I asked her if she knew that her breast was exposed for most of the time that we were dancing. Her reply was,
"Yes, I know, but I didn't think that you'd mind."
"I certainly don't mind." I replied, "and I'm sure that the guys round appreciated it as well."
"Oops! I didn't think about other people."
"Well I'm sure that no one minded, in fact I don't think that they'd have minded if you were totally naked."
"Oh, I couldn't do that; I might get arrested."
"I doubt that, more like the management would give you a job as a naked dancer so that you'd pull in more punters." I replied.
"Oow! I couldn't let them pull on my cunt." Lucy said.
I laughed a little then reached over to her and kissed her on the cheek.
"You are amazing Lucy." I said.
Lucy was still staring at my face in a dreamy sort of way so I kissed her again, this time full on the mouth, tongues as well. It went on for ages and my cock quickly got rock hard.
Some slow music came on and we went for another dance, this time I held her close. When I let her go she turned round and backed up to me. I put my arms round her and held her to me as she laid her head back on my shoulder.
I looked down her front hoping to get a nice down blouse view, and saw that her right nipple was about to be exposed again. I moved my right arm down a bit while gently pressing against her ribs. The right side of her top slid down as well and her right tit got totally exposed. What a magnificent sight. My right hand went lower and gently pressed on her lower stomach and pubic bone. I could feel her thong underneath her thin skirt and feel the heat coming from her pussy. I twisted my head to kiss her again.
While I was kissing her I let both my hands slide down her hips to her thighs then I slowly slid them back up taking her skirt with me. I stopped when I thought the hem of her skirt was close to her pussy then moved my left hand up to her exposed right breast. I gently squeezed her nipple while my right hand cupped her pubic bone. My fingers pressed against her thong, only it had slipped in between her lips and my middle finger found her hole and slid in.
Lucy started grinding her butt against my hard-on as others looked at her exposed breast and my hand on her pussy.
When we finally broke Lucy whispered that I made her so horny.
Lucy went to the toilet and when she came back she asked me to hold my hand out. When I did she put her clenched fist on my hand then opened her fist. Her wet thong fell into my hand and she said,
"Can you hang on to that for me, I don't think that I'm going to need it for the rest of the night."
I looked at her thong and felt my hard-on get quite painful.
As we walked to get a taxi I asked her if she would like to come back to my place. After a long pause she said that she would love to; but she'd taken so long to answer that I asked if she was sure.
"I want to get my lips round that." Lucy said as she squeezed my hard-on.
It was my lucky night. Ever since I'd met her I wanted to fuck her; but did she mean her mouth lips or her pussy lips; or both. I didn't care which; I was in heaven.
In the taxi we kissed some more and I got her into a position where her cami would slip down and expose her right tit again. I let the taxi driver look at her through his mirror for a while before cupping it with my hand and squeezing the hard, big nipple.
Before long we were in my apartment and taking each other's clothes off.
Lucy's body looks even better without clothes on. There's not a single hair below her neck and her pussy looks just like a little girl's except for a half inch clit sticking out. When I first saw her clit I knew that I was going to enjoy chewing it and making her cum over and over.
The sex was wonderful. Lucy throws herself into it and makes sure that both of us get the most out of it.
Afterwards, as we lay there on our backs, both totally naked, I had my first real chance to look at her magnificent body. Oh those breasts, nipples pointing to the ceiling and not a hint of sag, even though she was flat on her back. Oh that pussy, all pink, still swollen and glistening with our juices. I was in heaven.
We talked about Lucy's past and she blushed a bit as I told her that I wanted to look at her gorgeous body all the time. Lucy told me that she was used to people staring at her; she said that she actually enjoyed it and sometimes thought about running around naked and shouting,
"Look at me, I'm naked!"
"Would you run around naked for me? I mean out in public."
"Now!" Lucy said. She started to get up but I pulled her back telling her,
"Some other time."
"Good, I'm sure that it will be more fun when it isn't so dark. Won't you get jealous and possessive if other people, other men see me naked; I know a lot of men would?"
How could I be so lucky? This girl, this gorgeous girl wanted to run around naked in public. How could I possibly deny the world such a wonderful sight?
"Of course not, you have an amazing body that should be enjoyed by everyone. Visually that is, I wouldn't want every man to fuck you."
"That's nice." Lucy said as she turned on her side facing me, put her arm and leg over me and went to sleep.
I woke up to the feeling of Lucy sucking my cock. When she saw that I was awake she climbed onto me in the classic '69' position. I got my chance to chew that clit and I made her cum twice before I shot my load into her mouth. She swallowed every drop.
In the shower we fucked again before I drove her to her place to get changed for work. As I drove my phone rang. I pressed the button on the dash and heard Lucy in stereo. She was speaking into her phone telling her boss (me – sat beside her) that she was going to be late for work and that she'd make it up to him later.)
This girl was crazy, but I love her.
At her place she stripped naked then gave me a little fashion display of her clothes before deciding what she was going to wear.
When she selected a slightly sheer top I asked her if I she was going to wear a bra.
"No, my boss says that I only have to wear one when I'm going to have to meet boring, miserably clients."
I smiled and said,
"I've heard that too."
"Is that why you don't wear a bra?" Lucy asked.
I laughed and asked her if she was sure about the top because her colleges would be able to see her tits.
"Yes, I'm sure; it's not as if my boss hasn't seen them before."
"What about the others at work?
"Oh I hadn't thought about them. Do you think that they'll mind?"
"No, but that young girl might get a bit jealous." I said.
"She might copy me then my boss will have 2 pairs of tits to look at."
I laughed again as Lucy stepped into a summery skirt, quite thin and flared, but not that short.
"Do you think that my boss would like me to go commando?" Lucy asked.
"I'm not sure," I said, "maybe you should try it and flash him that gorgeous pussy of yours and ask him? If he says it's okay then you'll have to flash your pussy to him at least once every hour just to make sure that he's still happy with you. You never know; he might just take you shopping and buy you some clothes that will make it easy for you to flash him."
"Ooow, will he? I need some new clothes."
I kissed her and squeezed her butt under her skirt before we left for work.
During the drive I asked Lucy if she'd always been an exhibitionist.
"Is that what I am? No," Lucy said, "I used to hate people looking at me and I used to get quite depressed about it; but my dad slowly convinced me that I should be proud of my body and how I look. He was still convincing me when I left home to go to university. When I was at university I saw all the other girls being so bold and open but I still didn't have that much confidence in myself. It wasn't until I met you that I really realised that I can have lots of fun looking like I do. I've got to thank you for that Jack."
I wanted to stop the car and hug and fuck her there at the side of the road, but I didn't. Instead I just squeezed her bare thigh and thought how lucky I was.
Lucy went on to tell me that when she was a young teenager she set herself a number of goals. The first one was to get herself a decent degree; that had always been her number one priority. She said that if she got that right everything else would fall into place. She told me that she sacrificed all the normal fun that university students have to make sure that she did well. Her only lapse was at a party at the end of year two when she got drunk and taken advantage of. That was when she lost her virginity. Her next sex partner was me.
I told her that I was honoured.
Lucy also told me that her second goal was to swim a mile non-stop. She'd achieved that when she was 17.
Lucy also told me that because she'd now achieved her 2 mail goals she wanted to make-up for all the time that she'd been celibate. She wanted to do things that most girls would never do; to be adventurous and daring.
We were late arriving at work, but neither Ethan nor Liz said anything. When Liz brought me my coffee she said,
"Lucy looks happy this morning; she must have enjoyed herself last night. Cute top she's wearing, you and Ethan might have trouble concentrating on your work today."
"Thank you Liz." I said, thinking that she was right; not just because of Lucy's top, but Lucy in general.
About an hour later Lucy came into my office, shut the door and said,
"My boyfriend says that I have to let my boss know that I'm going commando today."
With that Lucy pulled up the front of her skirt and let me stared at her bald, little girl pussy with its protruding clit.
"Did your boyfriend also tell you that t's naughty to surprise your boss by doing that without asking for his permission first?"
"Err, no he didn't. Does that mean that you will have to punish me?"
Bloody hell, not only is this girl gorgeous, she has a fantastic body that she's not shy about showing, she's amazing at sex; and now she's inviting me to punish her. I nearly creamed my pants there and then. I did make a mental note to bring a spare pair of trousers to work, just in case.
"Yes it does Lucy. Come over here and bend over the desk."
Lucy came and stood beside me and leaned over the desk. I stood up and went behind her and lifted her skirt exposing her bare butt.
"Open your legs Lucy."
She did and I looked down at that beautiful butt encasing her wet, swollen vulva and clit. I really wanted to just fuck her there and then, but at the same time I wanted to see if she really would let me spank her butt.
I chose to spank her. I was afraid that the noise would attract unwanted attention so it wasn't too hard and only a few slaps. Lucy took it well and her pussy told me that she was very aroused; but I just couldn't fuck her there, not with Ethan and Liz just the other side of the door.
"Right Lucy," I said, "straighten your clothes and be back here in an hour for part 2 of your punishment."
"Yes boss." Lucy said with a lustful smile on her face.
And back she was; twice before lunchtime, and each time I spanked her bare butt. I swear that the inside of her thighs got wetter and wetter each time that she came in.
At lunchtime she was in again. As soon as she shut the door she told me that both Ethan and Liz had gone out for lunch. I pretended to go through the same routine, but after the spanking I rammed my cock into her before she could stand up. Oh, that was heaven; and Lucy's moans, screams and convulsions told me that she had an orgasm too.
After I'd pulled out she stood up and sat on my desk with her legs wide open. I watched my cum seep out of her pussy as we talked about how naughty we'd been.
That afternoon I had to go and see a client and didn't get back until both Ethan and Liz had left. I fucked Lucy on her desk before taking her home.
When we were in bed that night, and after I'd fucked her again, Lucy said,
"My boss spanked me for not warning him that I was going commando today."
"Did he now, and did you think that you deserved to be spanked?"
"Oh yes, I got what I deserved, it's naughty to flash your pussy at your boss, he might get the wrong idea."
"And what idea might that be?"
"That I enjoy going commando and braless, and that I enjoy flashing him."
"And do you?"
"Of course! How else am I going to get him to spank me?"
"Does that mean that you're going to go to work underwearless every day?"
"I don't know, what do you think?"
"I think that you should, and I also think that you should wear short skirts and see-through tops."
"Oh goody, I want to please my boss and I like flashing people as well."
"Lucy, you are such a naughty girl, perhaps I should spank you as well."
"Only if I've been naughty."
"Of course, but how often do you do naughty things?"
"Usually at least once a day."
"Wow, your boyfriend spanking you at night and your boss spanking you at work. You are going to have a really sore butt."
"Oh I'm sure that my boyfriend will find a way of making it better; a little massage or something else to take my mind off it."
"And what did you have in mind Lucy?"
"Something like this."
Lucy climbed on top of me and impaled herself on my cock. As she rode me I massaged her hard tits and tweaked her nipples.
I slept at her place or she at mine for the next couple of weeks. Some of her clothes moved into my wardrobe, but not her bras or knickers. Lucy stopped wearing both and took every private opportunity at work to show me what she wasn't wearing.
After that couple of weeks I asked Lucy to move in with me and she has never been away from me for more than a few hours ever since – except when I've sent her away on a business trip.
In the office we act very professional, but Liz caught on first and asked what took me so long. Ethan said that he'd suspected, but wasn't sure. I formally confirmed it and told everyone that it would not affect our work, and if they ever thought that it was then I was happy to discuss it.
I then corrected myself a bit and confessed that we would be taking holidays together, but that Ethan and Liz had already proved that they can run the business when I wasn't there.
Both Ethan and Liz congratulated us.
That night I told Lucy that we had be very professional at work – except when we were there alone, then we could fuck each other silly.
The following Saturday I took Lucy shopping for some new clothes. She'd been complaining that most of her existing wardrobe was from her student days, past its best and not what she now wanted to wear.
We spent most of the day buying clothes for her. One shop had dressing cubicles in one back corner of the shop and I took great delight in opening the curtain so that I could watch her change. Lucy called me a naught boy because other people might be able to see her as well. I told her that they couldn't, even though I knew that anyone passing would be able to see her. Lucy just said "Okay" and continued changing. The strange thing was that Lucy was only trying on skirts, but she stripped naked before putting any of them on.
As well as looking at her I was looking at the mirror on the back wall. One man and 2 teenage boys were looking at her. She must have noticed but she never said anything.
We bought 3 skirts in that store. All the skirts are no longer than 12 inches and all are flared. When she had the shortest one on I told her to bend at the waist.
With her back to the open curtain Lucy bent over. I stepped back and joined our little audience in looking at her beautiful, wet pussy.
I walked back to her, slapped her butt and told her that we were taking that skirt.
In another store we found some tops that we both liked, and Lucy took them to the changing room. This store has a separate room with the cubicles in so I couldn't go in. I had to stand at the room's entrance with other men that had partners in there. Lucy promised to show me each top so that I could help her decide.
A couple of minutes after she first went in I heard Lucy ask me if I was alone. I said that I was (I wasn't) and a couple of seconds later Lucy appeared in the doorway. The only thing that she was wearing was the top.
"Jack! You said that you were on your own." Lucy said as she put her hand over her pussy.
"These guys only just arrived." I lied. "Don't worry about them, pretend that they're not here."
"Okay!" Lucy said. She took her hand away from her pussy and did a twirl.
"What do you think?"
It was a thin cotton vest-like top that had 2 pokies out front.
"I like it." I said, "What about the others?"
Lucy was taking the top off as she walked back to the changing cubicle. We all had a great view of her entire naked back as she disappeared out of sight.
The second top was the best. It's a white, sleeveless, spaghetti strapped cotton tank top. The straps are like bra straps – adjustable. The best part is that at the front top there is a panel of lace with big holes. It's obviously designed so that the woman can adjust the straps so that she can decide how much of her breasts are visible through the lace. The thing was that Lucy had the straps adjusted so that the lace panel went below her nipples. Both were sticking through holes in the lace.
Lucy stood there in front of now 4 guys, wearing only that top, tweaked both her nipples and said,
"I think that you're going to have to show me how to adjust these straps, I don't think that my nipples are supposed to poking through the lace like this."
"Probably not, but you do look amazing wearing it like that." I replied.
We got another great view of her naked back as she walked back to the cubicle.
The third top was a blouse. Lucy said that she could wear it for work. I (and the other voyeurs probably) thought it looked great; well, it was very see-through.
"I'm not sure that your boss will like you wearing that at work. He may just have to punish you for being so brazen."
"That sounds nice, I can't wait," said the bottomless Lucy.
"Go and get dressed." I said, "I think that we need to look for a bra or two."
When Lucy came back out she was fully dressed – well, she had on the skirt and top that she'd left home in. She didn't look too happy and as we queued to pay for the top. She told me that she didn't like the idea of shopping for a bra. Why would she, she'd already told me that she didn't like bras.
I squeezed and told her that the shop I had in mind only sold sexy bras.
She wasn't convinced until we got there and she saw what I had in mind. I told her that she needed to have at least one bra for when we were meeting narrow-minded clients; and at least another for teasing men with.
Lucy's face looked better as I selected 3 bras for her. One was a shelf bra, the second was cup-less and the third had cups that are very thin and see-through. The shop didn't have a changing room but the girl promised that we could take them back if they didn't fit.
We went to the food hall to get something to eat before round 2 of the shopping. As we walked in Lucy told me that she had to go to the toilet. When she came back she was wearing the shortest skirt that we'd bought, and one of her new tops. Her nipples were rock hard, and it showed.
As we walked to a food counter I couldn't help noticing all the people looking at her. She was walking straight up so her butt and pussy weren't showing, but her pokies were. It wasn't just them that everyone was looking at; it was the real-life Barbie doll that was holding my arm. I was so proud.
We got our food and went and sat down. As Lucy sat down she winced a little. When I asked her what was wrong she told me that the seat was a little cold on her bare butt and pussy.
I kept looking around as we ate and kept seeing people looking at Lucy. I told Lucy about them and she said,
"I usually just ignore them, but if you want I can put on a show for them. I'm sure that they'd like to see me stand up and take my top and skirt off. Shall I?"
"Nice thought Lucy, but we'd better finish shopping before we get thrown out."
Lucy giggled and told me that she wanted to look in more shops.
We bought 3 more skirts and 4 more tops that afternoon and I told Lucy that I wanted a full fashion show of all of them when we got home. Lucy said that it may take a while.
As we walked round the shopping centre Lucy wanted to flit from shop to shop. Some were on the ground floor and others up a floor or two. We seemed to continually go from floor to floor on the escalators.
It was after about the third ride on an escalator that I twigged what Lucy was doing. She was deliberately going up and down the escalators so that men could look up her short skirt. What's more, the slowing down as we walked to the escalator was to make sure that she had a man just behind her.
"Okay," I thought, "I can help you with this."
The next time (and others) that we went to go up an escalator I too made sure that a man or men were behind us. As we started going up one time I put my arm round her and slid it down to her hip. Then I slid it back up to her waist, sliding her skirt up with it.
The 2 young men got a great view of her bare butt. I was deliberately carrying my wallet in my hand and about half way up I 'accidentally' dropped it in front on Lucy. Without thinking, Lucy bent forward to pick it up for me.
Perfect; I heard a gasp from behind and knew what had caused it.
As we got off the escalator Lucy leaned of to me and whispered,
"Thank you."
This girl was unreal.
In one of the stores that we went in to that afternoon, the changing rooms were like one of the earlier stores - in a small room and off the main shop. Men had to wait at the entrance. I joined 2 other men waiting and wondering what surprise Lucy would spring this time.
Lucy paused as she went into that room and then chose a cubicle. She didn't close the curtain. I couldn't see her at first but then she moved inside the cubicle and I could see her reflection in one of the mirrors.
We 3 men watched that mirror as Lucy stripped naked. As her top came off she tweaked her nipples, presumably to make them even harder. As she stood there in front of that mirror we watched her run her hands all over the front of her body. As they got to her belly her legs opened and she played with her clit for a few seconds before stepping into another skirt.
She came out and showed me the skirt, totally ignoring the other 2 men. She repeated the show, nipple and clit tweaks as well, until I'd seen all the skirts on her.
All the skirts were sooo short that she wouldn't be able to bend over without exposing her bare butt.
We bought all of those skirts.
Lucy did buy 2 dresses; one was a conventional, light cotton summer dress, buttoned all down the front; and the other was a modern looking dungarees dress. Obviously it was designed to be worn over some sort of top, but not my Lucy. The bib looks great perched on the front of those magnificent tits.
Finally Lucy declared that she had enough clothes for her new wardrobe for now and we set off home.
The fashion show only got about a quarter of the way through before I pulled her to me and we fucked for ages before collapsing on the bed and dozing off. That night I just had to take her clubbing so that she could show-off some of her new clothes and let me fondle her body on the dance floor. I finger fucked her to an orgasm while on that dance floor surrounded by dozens of people.
At work on the Monday I over-heard Liz complimenting Lucy on her outfit and saying that she wished that she could afford new clothes like Lucy's. Before Lucy had a chance to talk to me I called Liz into my office and asked her if she liked Lucy's new outfit. When she said that she did I asked her if she'd wear clothes like that (Lucy was wearing a microskirt and top that made it obvious that she had no underwear on).
Liz said that she would love to but she couldn't afford to. Her eyes lit up when I offered her a hundred pounds a month clothing allowance, providing that she gave me the receipts each month.
It wasn't long before we had 2 young women coming to work in skimpy clothes. Whenever Liz has accidentally shown me her butt or crotch she too was going commando.
I asked Ethan what he thought about the new-look girls. He said that they looked 'cute' which disappointed me a little, then I remembered that he's married with a couple of kids.
After a about a month I thought that Lucy had learnt enough to be present at some of our client meetings. I started with the in-house ones. The first one was with an elderly client who has never even hinted that he appreciates attractive women so I asked Lucy to dress a little bit conservative that day. When she dressed that morning, her version of conservative was a tight, mid-thigh length skirt with a cami top covered in a see-through blouse. No bra or knickers, but you couldn't tell.
She looked gorgeous, and the client did a double take when she walked into the room.
The meeting went well and Lucy was able to explain everything that was asked.
A week later I took Lucy to a meeting at the clients place of work. He's a mechanic who does up classic cars for lots of money, and he said that he wanted the meeting at his place because he had a mountain of work on and some crazy deadlines.
He'd got all his paperwork out on his workshop desk and got on with our task. We frequently had to go and ask questions while he was bent over, or under a very old Jaguar. At first I went out to him then I started sending Lucy to ask the question.
When Lucy came back the second time she had a big grin on her face. She whispered that she was glad that she's worn a flared skirt that day. The mechanic had been under the Jag and had pulled himself out to answer Lucy's question and found himself looking straight up her skirt. Lucy told me that she'd seen a bulge appear in his overalls.
I asked Lucy if she'd minded. Her response was to put her finger on her pussy and then put it in front of my face. It was all wet so I leant forward and sucked it.
"I presume that you'd like to ask all the questions from now on?"
Lucy didn't need to answer, and I sent her each time that we need to ask about something.
When everything was sorted we all had a conversation about the numbers and how we could manipulate them. Lucy sat opposite the man and he was obviously struggling to keep focused. He just agreed to my every suggestion.
On the way back to the office I rebuked Lucy for teasing the poor man, then pulled into a field off a country lane and got Lucy to lean over the car bonnet while I gave her a full service.
Life went on with us fucking each other silly at home and me struggling to concentrate at work. In a way I was pleased when clients came to visit us as I had told Lucy that she had to dress more conservatively which was less of a distraction for me.
I decided that I needed to get Lucy more used to meeting clients at their place of work so I set-up a few meetings.

My wife works for a company that supplies temporary trailers to companies and frequently has to meet with these clients. Many are construction foremen. She loves to wear short skirts and semi transparent tops. Very often she will return from a client meeting come felt disheveled and well fucked. I love my wife.

text: Size of Object(s)one hundred feet? Distance to Object(s) & Altitudeone half to one mile Shape of Object(s)disc or saucer shaped with what appeared to be rotating lights Color of Object(s):unknown, except lights appeared to change colors Full Description & DetailsDriving south on farm-to-market road 1454 from just west of Plainview, Tx. to Hale Center, Tx., I noticed a large glowing object to the west. I watched for about one and a half minutes until view was obscured by trees at a farmhouse near the road. When past the trees, the object had moved closer to the road, and seemed to be a bit lower. It appeared that the "saucer" shaped object was rotating, but this effect may have been caused by the lights going around the circumference. The lights appeared to change colors (or rotated). This part of the sighting (fairly close) only lasted a matter of seconds, and then the object left. When the object took off, it made a 90 degree angle (it was going east, then turned sharply south) and was gone in less than a second. It moved so fast that there was a "trail of light" left in the sky. This was observed by me and the other occupant of the vehicle, and later confirmed (to some degree, although the other witnesses weren't as close) by three other people. Witness Background49 years old at this time. This event happened either one or two days before my wedding. My wedding took place on 9/19/1975. I am employed in sales and have 1-1/2 yrs of college.

Typical "old" airline: doesn't have a clue.
Least bad solution: after take-off discretely offer an upgrade to "economy plus" at (say) half price. Passengers unhappy with their seat have the possibility to get a better one; as the upgrade is not free, all passengers will not hustle for one; airline gets more revenue; doesn't prejudice pre-paying economy plus passengers; as the "possibility" depends on there being empty seats after boarding those that really want e+ will still pay up front.

can I combine jpeg files?
Does anyone know of a way to combine several jpeg files into one? I was going to use pdf, but the file size is too big.
Also, a PC shouldn't have any problems opening a jpeg (.jpg) file, right? |

Just paste them together in an image editor like photoshop. If you don't have photoshop, you could use PowerPoint or even TextEdit. Then take a screenshot of the image (shift-command-ctrl-4, then select the area you want). Then open Preview and the screenshot will automatically open there, then you can save as a .jpg. You could then open in iPhoto if you wanted to resize the image.
No, PCs will have no problems with .jpg format. Another option would be to use iPhoto to make a QuickTime movie out of the pictures. Just make a slide show, then export. You're given three different file size options, so you can minimize the file size. PC users can view the slide show, but they might have to download quicktime from quicktime.com.

I'm not sure .rtfd is readable by a PC. .rtf is, but maybe not .rtfd.
Such crude tools.... you could print to PDF, then open in preview, zoom out so everything is on the screen, take another screenshot, open in preview again, and save as .jpg. You could also download seashore: http://seashore.sourceforge.net/ And I think that will do what you need. |

I think photoshop is the best friend in this case! Create a new file (CRTL+N) - the size you need, then paste your jpg (CTRL+V) and transform it (CTRL+T) if you need. CTRL+SHIFT+E - merge the picture.

Use Preview
You can actually use Preview to do that.
Open both images in separate Preview windows. Go ahead and save one of them as the name of the combined file you want to use (you definitely don't want to overwrite either part until you have the combined image you want). In the renamed picture window, Edit/Select All, Edit/Copy, then Tools/Adjust Size... and make the image large enough to hold both parts. Don't worry if it's too big, you can crop it later. When it's big enough the image will be stretched, possibly weirdly if you didn't scale proportionately, but it doesn't matter because you're going to overwrite that image anyway. Edit/Paste and with your mouse, drag this image to where you will want it on the final image. When you have it placed where you want, Click somewhere outside of that part on the now stretched part of the image, which will lock the pasted part where you have placed it. Go to the window of the other part you will be adding, and Edit/Select All, Edit/Copy it, then click on the image you will be pasting to, and Edit/Paste, move this part where you want it, and again click on some part of the image outside of what you've just pasted and moved to lock that in place. If you don't do the clicking thing, the paste will not take. If you need to trim parts of the image, Edit/Select All to select the whole image and move the dotted lines with your mouse and the little circle handles until everything you want is in the lines and everything you don't want is outside. Now Tools/Crop. You may need to redo these steps as sometimes a small bit you didn't want will be included. If you make a mistake, you can Edit/Undo, so don't worry about making mistakes. When you're satisfied, just File/Save, and voila, you've joined two images into one. |

Combining multiple jpg into one can be easily done with GraphicConverter:
1) Select 'File -> Convert & Modify' 2) Use the 'Concat...' function |

Easiest way: Select the jpegs you want to merge and drag/open them with preview. Select all of them with cmd+A and choose file>print selected images. Under print you just choose the correct orientation and save the lot as one .pdf. Works always.

Right clicking option!!
Combining is easy.. just open the jpg or jpeg file/picture... right click within the picture and select "convert to Adobe PDF". Once you convert all your jpg's to PDF you can then use the "combine files" option that pdf offers...

Easy way to print any type of files to PDF on Mac
Just reading through the suggestions. The way that I've found to make this happen is pretty straight forward.
You have multiple PDFs. Select them all and open them in Preview. They should open as icons down the right side, not as separate windows. Once open select them all on the right side. Then go File -> Print Selected Images. At the bottom Left it should have a little "PDF" bubble with a drop down arrow. Click on this and choose "Save as PDF" (or another option if you would like) Then it allows you to save, tag, rename the file which now shows all of the documents as one "printed" PDF file. That's it! Last edited by Xrhythm; Mar 25, 2012 at 05:04 PM. |

2013 and earlier BMW 3-Series Prices Paid and Buying Experience
laxcars Posts: 15Sorry maybe I should be more specific... I am looking for a 2011 328i sedan and interested in getting a 36 month lease for the lowest possible amount. What are the current numbers for the residual and money factor for the car on a 36 mo lease for 10k/yr or 12k/yr?
Do you think that waiting until mid-November at least will help with these as they might be more aggressive with the end of the year and the holidays coming up?
Thanks!0 · -

warbern Posts: 34What are the current lease numbers for a 2012 335i convertible? I am looking at a 36 month lease with 12k miles per year? Thanks so much. Also, are the numbers considerably better or worse if I were to lease a 2011? There seem to be more of these around than the 2012s at the moment. Also, if anybody has a Los Angeles dealer that is willing to go lower than $500 above invoice, I would love their info. Thanks so much!0 ·

Anyone think its worth waiting a few more weeks more off than this? Lots of 335d's in the area...
Is it right that the current lease money factor is .0018 and the residual on 10k miles is 60%?
Feedback would be appreciated.0 · -

eppisgood Posts: 3How much if a discount off the list price could you expect on a CPO 2008 335i?0 ·
eppisgood Posts: 3Black/Beige
31k miles
Premium Package
Sport Package with Paddle Shifters
Split Rear Seats
Heated Front Seats
iPod/USB Adapter
Listed for $30,000 even. The same car (minus split rear seats but with the comfort access system) is going for similar prices at http://www.bmwusa.com CPO inventory search. Been listed for sale for a few weeks.
Carfax says it is a lease return and was purchased in Newport Beach, CA. A few months before the current dealer put it up for sale it was serviced by Valencia BMW (computer reprogrammed, fuel injector replaced, recommended maintenance performed, oil & filter changed) ... not sure if that was the lease end inspection or not.
About a year ago my friend purchased the same car (minus the split seats but with the comfort access system) but year 2007, for $28k at Berkeley BMW. I offered $27k and the salesman said they wouldn't budge, said they were only making $500 profit, but that he'd look into what could be done and would call me tomorrow. I won't buy it for $30k as there are a few other CPO's without the split & heated seats going for $28k (that have black or grey interior, which I prefer). Think I should stick to my $27k?0 · -
sartorial23 Posts: 2White 2011 328xiT
6400 miles (loaner fleet for 10 months)
Premium, cold weather, value pkgs.
Sirius w/ 1 year sub
black roof rails
Heated steering
Before any negotiating, the dealer offered a selling price of $41,500 (KBB has the suggested retail from a dealer at $43,285 with these options and miles). I asked for him to put in the security deposits that I have read about on this forum which would total $3,500. At 10k miles per year and an adjusted residual amount of $28,730, my monthly payment would be $483.62 + tax.
-Does anyone have experience leasing a loaner? Is it just a bad idea to start with?
-Does this being a loaner have any impact on whether or not I should go with the security deposits?
-How does this deal sound and where should I look to negotiate if much room at all?0 · -
kyfdx Posts: 33,488I'm not really familiar with the market for that car, but leasing a service loaner can be a very good deal, if the price is low enough...
Forget what the retail number from KBB is... Find out the original MSRP, and see what sort of discount you are receiving, relative to a brand-new car..
Service loaner has no impact on MSDs... No reason not to use that program.MODERATOR

beemer_haus Posts: 1I personally think this is a good deal. Above average, 2008 BMW 335I's with this mileage, sell for about 27K at the Manheim Auctions. It's definitely a bonus having a 335 with a CPO. They are known for having issues. I would say go for it.
PS Don't forget to check the Carfax and Autocheck Report! It's not worth 30k if it's been in an accident or has uni-body damage! (Uni-body damage only shows up on Autocheck!)0 · -

The Swerve: How the World Became Modern (Hardcover)

One of the world's most celebrated scholars, Stephen Greenblatt has crafted both an innovative work of history and a thrilling story of discovery, in which one manuscript, plucked from a thousand years of neglect, changed the course of human thought and made possible the world as we know it. Nearly six hundred years ago, a short, genial, cannily alert man in his late thirties took a very old manuscript off a library shelf, saw with excitement what he had discovered, and ordered that it be copied. That book was the last surviving manuscript of an ancient Roman philosophical epic, On the Nature of Things, by Lucretius a beautiful poem of the most dangerous ideas: that the universe functioned without the aid of gods, that religious fear was damaging to human life, and that matter was made up of very small particles in eternal motion, colliding and swerving in new directions. The copying and translation of this ancient book-the greatest discovery of the greatest book-hunter of his age-fueled the Renaissance, inspiring artists such as Botticelli and thinkers such as Giordano Bruno; shaped the thought of Galileo and Freud, Darwin and Einstein; and had a revolutionary influence on writers such as Montaigne and Shakespeare and even Thomas Jefferson.

http://www.nectar.com.au/~stylesie/worms.html -- Lawrence F. London, Jr. mailto:firstname.lastname@example.com http://sunSITE.unc.edu/InterGarden mailto:firstname.lastname@example.com: Australian Earthworms
This page is an on-going project and will be updated and improved as I find the time. Any comments and critiques about content are most welcome. Email Colin Styles .
Australia has one of the most ancient and poor soil structures of any country on earth. Australia's earthworm population is small when compared to places like Europe. Our worms are generally poor soil builders and unused to improved pastures and composting situations. Many European and Asian worms have been accidently introduced to Australian soil over the centuries and it is these varieties that you will find in farmland and compost heaps the native types generally sticking to unimproved land.
Of the 3000 or so earthworm species identified worldwide, about 300 are native to Australia
Soil Earthworms will have biota (associated life forms) six times that of the worms. Good soil, with a density of five thousand worms per meter, can have 5 tonnes of worms per hectare and thirty tonnes of associated biota, all under the soils surface. This amount of life will aerate and fertilise more than 900 tonnes of soil per hectare each year.
In Europe Earthworms can build up the surface layer of topsoil at a rate of two milimeters per year. In Australia the rate is closer to half a milimeter per year.
Worms help to break down water resistant root mats that form underneath the surface and open up channels to aerate the soil and make it more water penetrable. Worm populated soil bacomes wet faster and deeper and holds the moisture longer. The worm burrows are coated in a nitrate rich mucous which helps to shore them against damage and provides plants with an easily digestible nitrate supply.
Nitrogen and carbon are separated in the worms gut and the nitrogen is deposited in the worms casting in a plant soluble form.
Worms are Hermaphrodites, they have both male and female sexual organs. One worm has two pairs of testes and two ovaries. Mating worms move together head to head and overlap thier bodies until they are nose to clitellum. A thick layer of mucous is excreted which wraps the worms tightly together. Sperm is ejected by both worms and collected and stored by the worms partner in special ducts. After the worms separate the clitellum quickly exudes an albuminous ring. The worm begins to wriggle out of this ring which slide forward over the worms head. On its way it passes over the ovary ducts of the worm and then the sperm storage ducts. After the worm finally wriggles out of the ring it closes and forms a capsule containing fertilised eggs. A capsule contains between 1 and 20 baby worms but usually averages out at 4 per capsule. Not all of the sperm is used each time a capsule is formed, so each worm might produce several capsules from one mating.
Worms do not mate between species, there are no worm hybrids. This is because besides any genetic incompatibilities the sex organs of different species do not correspond. Worms need to be of equivalent size and the same species in order to produce offspring.
Worms are extremely well muscled, they have longitudinal muscles and encircling muscles which cause the worm to stretch and contract its body in a co-ordinated fashion. When the worm is fully extended the worm will anchor its anterior (front) end to the soil and pull its posterior (rear) end up. The worm can also do this in reverse in a very graceful fashion. The worm anchors itself to the soil by using retractable spines calles Setae. These Setae are in pairs on each worm segment.
Manure worms can be used for composting and are generally NOT very good in the garden (they need nutrient rich bedding, manure or food scraps). They are the ones that you can buy in bait shops and worm farms. Two types, Reds (Lumbricus rubellus) and Blues (Perionix excavatus) can survive and even thrive in well mulched soil but never introduce adult Reds or Blues to the garden, they will die. Introduce worm capsules (eggs) to the soil and the young worms will adapt more readily to the new environment. Commercial worms have a very high breeding rate and eat thier own weight in bedding and food per day. They will eat anything that was once alive but not while it is alive so are perfect for home and indoor composting.
These worms do more for soil building. They burrow in relatively nutrient poor soil and clay, mix it with mulch and excrete it onto the surface as castings. Their burrows aerate the soil and make it more water retentive, microbe rich and because they are lined with mucous bind plant usable nitrogen to the soil. They are much harder (read expensive) to cultivate commercially than composting worms.
The best way to attract worms into your garden is to mulch it. Create plenty of worm food and worms will flock to you. This does take time though especially if you only have Australian native earthworms in your garden, they breed slowly and are poor performers compared to the European imported worms.
Next time you mow the lawn, leave the catcher behind and leave the grass clippings on the lawn. Within 12 month you could have worm densities of 5000 per square meter (under ideal conditions). At this density they can build your soil up by cm per year. Worms prefer a soil PH on the acidic side of neutral, but not too acidic. As they work they reduce soil acidity via a Calciferous gland, this combined with a light dusting of garden lime (or crushed egg shells) is great for soil PH.
Worms are probably the best thing you can do for your garden, they've been building and fixing the soil for 600 million years long before we came along and started introducing chemicals.
A useful earthworm classification method is based on feeding behaviour and habitat. All worms fall into these categories somewhere. Generally, the nearer the base of the triangle the more useful the worm for soil building and the nearer the peak are manure (Commercial) worms.
Epigeic /\ / <--------------- Eisenia fetida (Tiger or Red Tiger) / \ / <---------------- Perionyx excavatus (Blue or Indian Blue) / \ / <------------ Lumbricus rubellus (Red or Blood worm) / \ / \ / \ / \ / \ / \ / \ / \ / <---- Lumbricus terrestris / \ Endogeic ---------------------------------- Anecic
Epigeic: Surface dwelling worms that ingest freshly decaying plant or animal residues.
Endogeic: Soil dwelling worms that ingest soil and extract nutrition from degraded organic matter.
Anecic: Burrow deep into the soil but forage at night on the surface for freshly decaying plant or animal residues.
Comments: Very active wigglers when exposed to sunlight. Worms exude amino acids that are lacking in fish which makes them almost irresistible to fishes and great bait. Prolific breeders
Comments: Very active wigglers when exposed to sunlight. Worms exude coelemic fluid which smells unpleasant and are therefore not suitable for fishing bait.
Comments: Very active wigglers when exposed to sunlight. Worms exude coelemic fluid which smells unpleasant and are therefore not suitable for fishing bait.
Comments: Very active wigglers, they also fluoresce when exposed to sunlight. They make good fishing bait and fetch a better price than Lumbricus rubellus. Thier breeding habits are prolific.
Comments: Externally identical to Perionyx excavatus with which they are often confused. Very active wigglers, they also fluoresce when exposed to sunlight. They make good fishing bait and fetch a better price than Lumbricus rubellus. Thier breeding habits are prolific and this Australian native worm is Parthenogenetic, ie self fertilising.
Comments: More information when I get it.

Four hits was more than enough for the Harrisburg Senators on opening night at Metro Bank Park.
It wasn't the so much the hitting, but the Senators' collective approach at the dish Thursday night that stood out.
And really is should come as no surprise considering this roster as its currently constructed has only three players with zero experience at the Class AA level.
Harrisburg was patient and selective at the dish – almost downright demanding. And it forced the four Bowie pitchers into a bind by laying off the borderline stuff in a 5-0 blanking of the Baysox.
"I was really, really pleased tonight with how we were patient. We didn't force the issue at the plate for the most part," Senators new skipper Tony Beasley said. "We made them throw 37 pitches the one inning, then 29 the next. We made their pitchers work, and forced them to throw the ball over the plate.
"That's how you have to play the game – take what the opposition gives you. Offense did a nice job of that tonight."
Most night's four hits earns you some extra work in the cage with the hitting coach the following afternoon.
Well, all nine Senators who visited the plate on this chilly but not overly cold opening night reached base at least once.
"We were juiced up for opening night, but at the same time we tried to be as patient as we can," said Senators cleanup hitter Tyler Moore, who was the only player on either club with more than one hit. "I think we did a good job of picking our pitches, and it forced their guys to come to us. We didn't have that many hits, but we were able to score some runs."
Moore's one-out RBI single in the third plated the eventual game winning tally, and it came on the heels of back-to-back walks drawn by lea doff hitter Jonathan Tucker and Steve Lombardozzi.
Collectively the Senators drew eight walks and two additional batters were hit by a pitch. That's 10 free pases.
Buck Coats immediately followed Moore with another RBI single that made it 2-0.
"Buck Coats had a big hit. Tyler Moore also had a big hit. We had runners on third base with less than two outs twice, and we manufactured runs out of those situations," Beasley said. "That's how you have to play the game of baseball."
