The Rodeo Rider

Determined to become a rodeo star, Julian Busch ends up in North Carolina at Rolling Meadows Stables, where the days are grueling, the nights are wild, and his fellow trainees will mount a cowboy faster than they will mount a horse. Life in the rodeo isn't easy, but wit and grit lead Julian to a place he never thought he would be.
Julian unpacked his suitcase, putting everything in the chest of drawers next to his bunk – socks and belts in the top drawer, underwear in the second, shirts in the third, and blue jeans in the bottom. He peeled off his red t-shirt with an Aggies mascot on it.
"Is that natural or do you work out?"
"What do you mean?"
"That chest. It just ain't normal."
"Just the result of daily workouts and some weightlifting."
"I guess I've got to get me some weights."
"Don't need to. I brought mine. They're still in the car."
"Think you could help me?" He pulled up his shirt showing a modicum of development.
"Sure, we've got ten weeks here. I'm sure we could do something with that body of yours. It has potential."
"Well, go shower. I'm going to grab a quick nap. Wake me when you're ready to go to dinner." Ross went to his bunk as Julian stripped, grabbed a towel, and entered the shower. A few moments later, Julian hollered to Ross, "Hey guy, you got some soap? I didn't pack any and there ain't none in here."
Ross rose from the cot and took a bar of soap to the shower room.
"Damn, you're a hairy one," Ross said. "Good thing your Emily didn't let you get very far. She'd be spitting out pubic hair more than doing anything else. You want some help there?"
"What? You think I'm gay and want to touch another guy's junk?"
"I guess I was wrong. Sorry." Ross returned to his cot and hoped Julian didn't notice what he was sporting. Ross was disappointed in himself. He had vowed to follow the straight path now that he was starting a new life away from the life he had led in rural Georgia, and all the peers he had secretly been with. He knew he had to work harder on suppressing his innate desires. He fell asleep, but his mind conjured up a dream of him with the man he had just met.

Key Maneuvered

J.D. didn't miss what he didn't have, including family. He barely remembered his mother and had never known his father. Following the death of his grandfather, he becomes the neighborhood pass-around-kid, raised by a group of caring church members.
When traveling evangelists Brother Bob and Sister Tina hear him play the piano, they quickly take him into their fold, where his talent and tragic story tear at the hearts of churchgoers across the Bible belt.
A hit on the revival circuit, J.D.'s talent and Bob and Tina's showmanship soon turn their straw of a show into pure gold. Brother Bob and Sister Tina are becoming more than financially secure, but they need J.D.'s talent and story to keep their ministry going and their money growing.
When a clash between the old time religion and J.D.'s sexual orientation becomes a crisis, he runs to the military to hide, where he finds love with Ethan. But sweet, sexy Ethan, has a dark secret of his own, a secret that involves someone near and dear to J.D., which may keep the two men apart forever.
Ethan was a P.K., Preacher's Kid, out of Tampa. I had been around other Preacher's Kids, some of whom were so restricted they did nothing but rebel and lash out. Ethan was just the opposite. There was a goodness that came out of him naturally. He was as caring, honest, and kind as he was cute, and that guy was a whole bucket fulla cute. Ethan was quite the total package and made a damn fine looking soldier.
The beginning of fall had come to the southern base where we were stationed, and we could see that some leaves had begun to change as we walked slowly through the night together. In the darkness, we had not seen clouds gathering above us. The skies suddenly opened, a gusting wind pushing the falling rain over us in waves. I was content to cavort like a fool in the downpour, but Ethan, who was very good about letting me be silly, quickly pushed us off the sidewalk to a barracks we were near and into an open doorway. We stood looking at the rain for a moment, waiting for it to let up, with me grinning at Ethan.
"You are drunk. I shouldn't have let you have that beer."
"And you are cute," I said, lightly pressing a forefinger into his chest.
"Stop, you'll make me blush."
"And nice, and kind, and..,"
Ethan cut me off while I was speaking. "Stop. You don't know me, man." Ethan was suddenly dead serious, his face tightening and going dark. "I'm not the good guy you all think I am." There was a moment of silence between us as I took in this new side to my buddy that I had never seen. Then just as suddenly, the Ethan I knew came back to the surface, "Hey," he said, his warm smile back on his face, "you've never told me about your life."
"It's a long story," I said, wanting to get back on track with where my little engine was heading.
"We've got time," he said, patting the concrete next to him.
I tried to change the subject, but Ethan was having none of that. So I talked, catching him up on the gory details of my life to date, everything but why Bob and Tina were going to send me to Costa Rica.
"You were the only guy in basic who didn't talk about family, so I've kind of been figuring that you might have had it rough," Ethan finally answered.
I just gave him a shrug. "It's all I knew," I said. "Besides, Bob and Tina weren't all that bad. They were just doing what they knew." We sat for a few more minutes before I found the courage to say what I had been waiting to say. "Ethan, I, I'm in love with you," I finally stuttered out.
There was a long pause. Ethan stared blankly straight ahead into the rain before standing. We had been in the niche for about two hours by then, but it seemed only seconds because I was with him.
"We'd better get inside."
"I just said I love you, man," I gently chided, hoping for something that deep inside my heart I knew was not going to be returned.
"I know," he said quietly, looking me in the face.
I could see tears welling up in his eyes and I wanted to reach up and stroke them away with my fingers.
"How lucky I am to have something that makes saying goodbye so hard," he finally said in return, and a tear fell to trail down his cheek. "But that can't ever happen," he said, without looking at me or saying anything more as he stepped away from me and headed toward the barracks.

Born into a world of scams, hoaxes and schemes, he settles in Miami after making a major art swindle, only to lose his heart to the wrong man.

Love, loss, redemption and sex are set against the bright neon of the Las Vegas strip in this sizzling romance!
I owed a guy money.
A lot of money.
And I made a deal with the devil.
Yeah, I'm a thief. Not proud of that, but not disturbed by it either.
No moral compass at all, survival of the fittest was what it boiled down to with us – Dad, Mom and me. Poppa was a rollin' stone. Wherever he laid his hat was his home…the old man was as good looking as my mother was beautiful, but they could never make it together. He would bounce back to us for a caper now and then when we needed to make a larger than average hit, and then he'd be off again. But even when we were together we were like sharks, moving from town to town. We lived as high as we could for as long as we could, and then we would be on the hunt for another sucker to take down. There truly is one born every minute, as P.T. Barnum famously said, and we were always ready to help that fool to be parted with his money.
First I was just a prop. Food, clothing, cigarettes, and booze were stuffed into the stroller net and to my tender, but thickening, hide. As a toddler, my carriage became a getaway buggy for auto parts, jewelry, rare books, and once, a few furs. I can still remember the soft brush of chinchilla against my skin. As I got older, I followed the lead of my parents. Scheming and scamming were their stock and trade, and I took to it like a baby duck to water, never questioning any of it because it was the only life I knew. I learned to hotwire a car, pick a pocket, forge a check, and dodge rent. Our coat of arms would have consisted of a piece of broken hanger and a pair of soft gloves to prevent fingerprints.
South Beach has beautiful Art Deco buildings and is packed with hot guys of all shapes, sizes and types. South beach is also packed with thieves, scammers, and con people like me. I was running an art deal, a specialty that I was becoming known for. It was an international arrangement in which I managed to smuggle two Dutch Master works out of the country on yachts. I knew a guy who had done amazing replicas of the works. With properly aged canvas (it's amazing what plain old tea bags and the South Florida sun can do to age canvas), he used only the best materials to make the correct formulas of old pigment, and hand made his own brushes. The pieces were as close to the originals as anyone was going to get.
The haul was big. Following the way I had lived my entire life, I took a sublet in one of the glittery high rise buildings that dot South Beach, and lived a little. I like stability, but had gotten used to life on the go, settling in quick and not staying in the same place. But every now and then, when I was flush with cash, I would splurge and settle in for a little while. I was enjoying South Beach, so I hit the clubs, spent some time in the gym and at the beach, and met Carlos.
Carlos had large eyes the color of a melted Godiva chocolate, skin like satin, thick black hair landing nearly to his shoulders, and that body… he was built like he was made of steel coils wrapped in suede. The attraction was mutual and instant.

Vision of Self
Click on Cover Above to Purchase.
In the conclusion of the 'Journey of Self' series, Daniel Self finds himself defending his relationship with Jordan Richards. He's prepared to forgive Jordan for the past, but it's not so easy for Daniel's long time friend, Dunnelly Knight. Daniel struggles to find the love he's looking for, only to come face to face with the past he has denied.
Daniel landed at Love Field on schedule and was at the condo well before 8:00. Jordan and he had chosen to live separately and allow their relationship to progress over time. It seemed to be working well, though Jordan pressed for more at times, as if he were looking for some sort of commitment. Jordan could always generate passion, and the sex was beyond intense. Daniel felt that he lost his usual objectivity when it came to sex with Jordan, and he often wondered how Jordan had become so skilled in what he did and how he did it.
Daniel showered and climbed into bed. His nude body was tired and he was looking forward to down time with Jordan. He picked up his cell phone and noticed that it was almost 9:00, but there was no message. He switched on the TV to the local channel and saw a promo for the local news with Dunnelly's smiling face. He still had the same boyish good looks and easy smile as he had years ago when he was on the sidelines in his Willow Wildcat cheerleading uniform. Dunnelly had always been the one constant in Daniel's life of loss and change and he held him close to his heart. Daniel sighed and switched off the TV. It was almost 10:00 and still no Jordan. He tossed his phone aside and closed his eyes. He thought he was dreaming when he felt a warm sensation between his legs. He heard Jordan mumble, "Relax cowboy, I'll take care of this." Daniel glanced at the clock. It was twelve minutes past midnight.
Daniel could feel the familiar sensation that could bring him close to ecstasy. Sex with Jordan was beyond description. "Whoa, give me a little break between, would ya?" he smiled. "Man, you can go full throttle for hours, but I need to come up for air."
Jordan looked up sheepishly. "Do you miss me when you're down there in Austin with all those politicians?" Jordan asked.
"When I'm in Austin, I'm working," Daniel answered.
Jordan lay silent, but quietly seethed. "Have you given any more thought to our living together?" He finally broke the silence.
"Not really, Jordan. Was I supposed to?" Daniel asked. "I thought you were clear that I didn't want that kind of commitment. We get together when we want, and I don't want to mess it up by moving too quickly."
"Well, you are, and I don't want to feel like I'm on hold forever," Jordan whispered. He rolled onto his side and watched the steady rise and fall of Daniel's chest as he drifted into a peaceful sleep.
Jordan slipped off the side of the bed carefully. Daniel was undisturbed as he murmured slightly and turned onto his back. His legs were spread and his hands were tucked behind his head under his pillow. A soft light from the bedside lamp cast shadows across Daniel's amazing torso. Jordan smiled slightly, reached into the pocket of his jeans, and pulled out his smart phone. What better time to capture this in pictures, he thought. He snapped several pictures of Daniel's nude sleeping body and checked the time as he pocketed his phone. Still time for a couple of drinks, he thought as he tucked in his shirt, ran his fingers through his hair, and checked himself out in the bathroom mirror.

Randy Talbot's Closet
As the fashion-conscious homosexual that I am, in my head I have a matching set of clothing for every man I've ever been with. And yes, "been with" is a euphemism for sex. Before recalling the men in my life, dragging them out of my closet and airing them on the line for all to see, I thought it would only be fair to have one of my past lovers describe me in clothing. What follows is his response, unedited and unapologetic, much like him: "In the closet of my love life, you would be a pair of fitted, designer blue jeans – expensive and engineered to accentuate the bits you're proud of while hiding the bits that you're not. Below the jeans would be a saucy pair of modern, black, Italian leather shoes, well-worn and perfect for dancing. Under the jeans is a pair of forty dollar Calvins. Above is a tailored pin-striped shirt that you bought to make yourself look taller. P.S. You're not short, you only think you are. The only accessory is a wristwatch that looks expensive but wasn't. You hate being late. You think the idea of Queer Standard Time is appalling and reinforces a bad stereotype. In fact, you insist on being early for everything and bounce around like a little waist-coated white rabbit when others make you late."
That's not how I would introduce myself, but that's the point. Before I start unabashedly gossiping about the men who have been in my life, in clothes and out, I thought it only fair to give myself the same treatment. Now comes the fun part. Without further delay, I present to you, in chronological order, the men in Randy Talbot's closet.
Se7en was an underground club and it sounded like the party was well underway by the time we got there. We grabbed each others' hands and went down the steamy, dark rabbit hole together.
"Cover is twenty dollars," the goth door attendant barked at us as he checked our IDs.
"Evan, didn't you say it shouldn't be more than ten?"
"Oh, tonight's our special anniversary," said the attendant, a crooked smile curling on his blackened lips. "Seven years at this location. It's quite the party in there."
We briefly discussed going somewhere else, but we were already there, so we bit the bullet, paid, got our hands stamped, and crossed into the unknown. The thick, inky satin curtain dividing coat check from the rest of the club may as well have been a wormhole into another universe. We froze before taking three steps inside and surveyed the landscape: black leather harnesses, vinyl clothing, rubber gloves, glow sticks, back hair, chains, and gas masks paraded before us under a shifting net of green laser lights that zapped through a fog of dry ice and perspiration. Then there was us. I wore my standard "little black dress" – a black spandex t-shirt and fitted black slacks. Evan wore a skin-tight metallic gold t-shirt and jeans, and Andy's outfit was something like mine.
"Oh!" Evan exclaimed, clasping his hands together like some kid on Christmas morning. "This is going to be sooooo much fun!" He bounced into the room and introduced himself to a rather hirsute man in ass-less chaps. The remaining three of us huddled together, looking at each other with our mouths agape.
The night didn't go badly at all. Evan and I stuck together for pretty much the entire night and he eventually poured enough liquor down my throat to get me dancing to the hellish trance music. By midnight, hunky Kevin was wearing a dog collar and getting led around by an enormous muscular man who might have been around thirty, and he seemed to be enjoying it. Andy had his face covered with neon war paint and was chatting with a svelte young man whose nipples were pierced and chained together. Another chain ran down his torso and disappeared behind the waist of his black leather pants where I imagine it was attached to something else.
Evan only left my side once to go to the washroom. By that time we had already shared many kisses, but when he got back he seemed a little too energized. I could tell he was into me before, but whatever he had downed in the washroom shattered what was left of his inhibitions. And don't misunderstand. The attraction was by no means one-way. Evan was one hot little number.
Last call came and went. Andy had already left on the arm of an exotic-looking creature with a green mohawk. Kevin had lost his "owner" but retained his collar and a phone number. The three of us split a cab back to campus. Evan was all over me in the back seat and I can't say I was doing much to stop him.
"Geez, get a room, you two," said Kevin.
"That's the plaaaaaaan," said Evan, taking a break from tonguing my ear. "Besides," he said, sliding his hand under my shirt. "You don't know where my dorm is. And, right now, neither do I." Then he laughed like he had just cracked the funniest joke ever.

Cover art by Yannich @ deviantart.com
"Complete and Uncut." That was exactly how Larry liked the men he bedded. Making his way in the world, he is hired at an Italian restaurant where the waiters are as spicy as the cuisine. A sexy boss with an unquenchable desire for his waiters, as well as a regular customer always in the company of young men and looking for more, and Larry's job takes some interesting turns, ultimately leading him to a place he never thought he would be.
"You've sort of taken him under your wing, eh? Just like a robin watching her young take their first flight."
"Sort of. I think he has the potential to be really good at this, and I want to make sure his first solo is successful."
"Well, go for it. Just don't hit on him."
"I had no intention. I don't know how he'd take it."
He found Larry standing at the waiter's station waiting for his first order to be fixed. "How's it going so far?"
"Pretty good. Except I think he was trying to hit on me."
"You don't have to think about it. He was. He likes his men young, and you're his type."
They approached the table, and Larry was flawless in his introductory service. He had the beverages to them promptly, took their table order, and keyed in the data for the kitchen. He returned with Mr. Boggs' food containers, processed the credit card, and was shocked to find a twenty dollar bill stuck in his hand as Mr. Boggs rose from the table. "Good service, young man. I'll see you again."
Larry didn't notice the thumbs up sign Mr. Boggs gave Mr. Trathan as he left.
"Great job, Lorenzo," Mr. Trathan said as Larry and Marco left the restaurant at closing.
"Where's your car?" Larry asked, not seeing the green Ford where Marco usually parked.
"I'm being picked up. Now look, there's one thing I have to tell you about Mr. Trathan. How much did you make in tips tonight?"
"Eighty-five dollars."
"That's good for a slow Monday. On a weekend, you'll probably grab at least two bills per night. Once you get used to making that kind of money, Mr. Trathan will ask you to come in early one afternoon and he's going to ask you if you want to keep your job? That's when he'll put the moves on you. If you comply, you keep your job. If you don't, you're history."
"How do you know that?"
"Because he did that with me."
"I see. Thanks for the heads up. But that's no problem. I like sex with guys, especially if they're uncut."
"So do I now, because of Mr. Trathan…oh, here comes the car. Let me introduce you to Lance. He's my husband of two years."

Aquarian Angels – Lake
When Dan and his friends fly into a small Wyoming town to film scenes of a project they're working on together, they stay at Dan's parents' old summer house on Walter Lake. Once they arrive, Dan feels something strange at the lake. His sense of home, the smells and sights seem to have vanished. When the appearance of a Lake Angel named Whisper comes to haunt him, he discovers that another Lake Angel has been kidnapped and is trapped in one of the houses surrounding the lake. Whisper can't leave the lake, so he asks Dan to find the Angel and bring him back. Seduced by Whisper's beauty, Dan accepts the mission, but he fears the power and strength of a person or thing with the capability of capturing a Lake Angel and keeping him hidden away.
Emerging from the water was a beautiful man with sun kissed skin, an abundance of brown hair flowing to the back of his neck, a swimmer's build beyond perfection, pectoral muscles so big they appeared to be floating in the water, innocent hazel eyes with long angelic eyelashes, and lush lips. Each stroke he made was as graceful and gentle as the sound of a wave crashing onto the shore.
"I didn't know there was anyone else out here," Dan said.
"I'm a quiet swimmer," he said in a voice so delicate that Dan felt a rush of tingles hit the back of his neck.
"What's your name?" Dan asked.
"I'm Whisper," he said. "I'm the one who makes every sound in the lake as delicate and soft as they are now," he added. "I want to ask you a favor."
"What kind of favor?" Dan asked.
"I wanted to ask if you could find someone for me. His name is Sensory," Whisper said. "Sensory has been gone for over a week and has taken mortal form. He's in that house," Whisper said, pointing directly at Judy Manor.
"If you know where he is, why don't you get him?" Dan said, surprised that Whisper wasn't smart enough to think of that first.
"I can't leave the lake," Whisper explained.
"So all you want me to do is go there and find out what Sensory is doing in Judy Manor?" Dan asked.
Whisper nodded. "Find a way to get inside the house and look for him," he said. "But It won't be easy," he added.
The door opened to reveal a man with white hair combed back, flawless tan skin, dressed in a royal blue robe and nothing else. His eyes were marble black and he was younger than Dan had expected.
"I'm Professor Perry Van," he said, offering to shake hands.
Dan had a suspicious feeling growing in the pit of his stomach. The man greeting him was scantily clad, good looking, and immediately offered him alcohol, but Dan wasn't going to be seduced by an older man easily. He entered the manor, and Perry closed the door behind them. He led Dan into the living room which was dark with black and scarlet colors in the rugs and drapes, in the color of the walls, and in the sofa and furniture. Books lined the shelves between the curtained windows, and the only lights in the room came from the antique lamps.
"Welcome to my home. I don't usually have guests," Perry said, opening a bottle of cognac and pouring himself a glass. "You must stay awhile. You can take a shower after your swim in the lake. I was just about to take a swim myself," he said as he pointed out his bathrobe and slid his hand along the edge, revealing a bit more of his chest than necessary.
Dan had older men come on to him in the past, so he knew what Perry was up to. The strange part was, even though there was something not quite right about the man, Dan found Perry charming and sexy.
"A shower sounds good," Dan said.
A huge grin filled Perry's face. "Let me show you the master bath," he said, sliding out of his chair.
"It's beautiful," Dan said, hypnotized by the bathroom's allure.
Perry stepped into the room. "Can I get you anything before your shower?"
Dan turned his head. "I think I've got everything I need in here already," he said.
Without telling Perry to leave, Dan pulled the Velcro fly of his swim trunks and undid the string. Perry moved in closer and looked at himself in the mirror above the sink, and began playing with his hair. Dan noticed Perry's reflection in the glass of the shower. It was clear that he was pretending to fix his hair while he waited for Dan to strip. Dan dropped his swimsuit to the floor, revealing himself to Perry.
Perry watched as Dan entered the shower. As the water poured down on Dan, Perry undid the sash of his robe, revealing his body underneath. His chest hair was trim, his skin tan all over, with his most private area a nice golden color. His stomach was flat and smooth, his legs thick and toned.
Dan could feel Perry disrobing behind him. Perry stepped into the shower slowly, closing the door. Dan lathered his body down to his groin area, and it was then that Perry took the bar of soap from him and reached around to lather the rest of his guest. Perry let out a groan as soft as a whisper, as Dan watched the hands of his seducer.
"How do you live out here without this?" Dan asked.
Perry nibbled at Dan's ear, "Good things come to those who wait," he whispered against Dan's ear.

The Bond
As the alpha, Eric cannot let anything dire happen to anyone, so with rumors of a dark presence near the area, he sends one of his betas to check out the situation. Feeling the strength of the full moon, the werewolf inside of him is aching to get out. His pack has a strict rule that no young werewolf be allowed to roam alone, especially on the night of the full moon, and he knows the young ones in the pack will be struggling tonight.
Eric belonged to a family of werewolves that were considered royalty in the paranormal world, and because of that, his son was royalty as well, the rightful heir to being the new alpha of the pack. But Eric's son left the pack many years ago, and while Roderick secretly kept tabs on him, he hadn't dared contact him directly. Who knew what might happen if a powerful father and son confronted each other when the hatred between them hadn't lessened yet.
Roderick smiled to himself. He was Eric's beta. He looked at Eric sleeping peacefully, his chest rising and lowering with each breath.
"Are you going to keep checking me out like that?" Eric asked. His eyes were still closed and a smile was on his face.
"I thought you were asleep," answered Roderick.
Eric didn't open his eyes as he grabbed Roderick's arm, gently pulling him closer. Eric elongated his teeth and gently bit him.
"I love it when you do that," smiled Roderick as he closed his eyes and let himself go to the sensations of Eric biting his neck and shoulder.
Roderick knew what his alpha wanted and was pleased to oblige. He prided himself in being the one Eric had chosen as the first beta, and he was willing to do anything to give his alpha the pleasure he needed. Eric closed his eyes in anticipation of the amazing experience he was about to have.
Any other night the two of them would have taken it slow, but the power of the full moon was making them more passionate.
It had been two months since Eli met Stanley. He had been sent to the small county to work on a murder case, one thing led to another, and Eli had found himself being protected from a crazed woman by Stanley. That was the night he discovered that Stanley was a werewolf, and surprisingly, it didn't scare him off. He felt a connection with Stanley, and the two of them ended up living together.
There wasn't much detail in the report that had been sent to him. All he could ascertain was that the 'occurrences' seemed to be moving. People reported scary howls and dark figures at night with glowing red eyes. Eli wouldn't have given it much thought, but living with a werewolf boyfriend had opened his eyes when it came to the supernatural world. There was a good chance that something paranormal was making its way to the county.

The Key West Kid
Growing up in Key West, the gay capital of the South, Danny was open-minded enough to try anything once. He had heard through the grapevine that any guy who made it with another guy poolside at Robbie Burns' place was socially entitled to get and wear a puka shell necklace. He had made it his personal goal to get one of the treasured adornments this year, and Danny was nothing if not determined, but his visit to the Burns residence is an eye-opener in more ways than he had anticipated.
Sounds of a game of water baseball came to his ears which indicated that the older boys were accepting Danny into their coterie, and Robbie had to admit that Danny had the equipment to make him popular and a sought-after partner. He sat down in front of his computer monitor, but he wasn't thinking of work. His mind had flashed back to Danny Robinson, now known as Danny Robinson, Sr. He picked up the phone and dialed the number he had been given. Three-four-five rings and then a familiar voice saying "Hello."
He hung up immediately. The voice was so bass, so gentle, so reminiscent of the nights they had spent together promising to love each other forever, and then the one night when Danny called off their affair with the news that he had gotten a girl pregnant from a one night experience on the other side, and felt it was his responsibility to marry her. Robbie had been cut off quicker than a newly born puppy dog's tail. And yet he remembered all the love he had given the man, the love he had searched for again for fifteen years – in college and in all the gay bars he frequented, all the men he had been with, but none ever sparked the feelings he once had for Daniel Robinson, Sr. All the one night stands and the few that extended to week-long attempts at finding romance were all in vain. He had basically given up finding Mr. Right.
He got up and made a sandwich and turned on the radio station, doing anything to get his mind off the memory of Danny and his body – the firm abdomen, the smiles he always gave, and his voice, that mellifluous, sexy, oh so sexy voice. Nothing worked, however, at diverting his mind. Memories of what had been kept flooding back. No matter where he looked in the house, there was a reawakened memory of what he and Danny had done or said in every spot – the kitchen, the patio, the living room sofa, the floor in front of the fake fireplace. Memories that had been buried deep in his subconscious cascaded over him.
Finally, he redialed the number and waited patiently for an answer.
"Hello." There was that sexy voice again.
"Hi, Danny. This is Robbie Burns."
There was an interminable pause. "Hi," the deep bass voice finally said.
"I was wondering if you might be free and feel like making the drive over. I'd like to see you."
"You want to see me? After what I did to you? How I betrayed you?" the voice asked incredulously.

Boat Run
A lawyer and ad executive during the week, Eddie and his buddy have big plans for the weekend. They're going to drive up to Hyannis, rent a small cabin cruiser, and luxuriate in the life of ease anchored somewhere off the coast. Their plans don't include picking up a hitchhiker, but he's so hot, they can't resist. Holding a sign saying he's hitching to P-town means there's a major party waiting to happen, so they pull to the side of the road and give him a ride.
I called Eddie and ran the plans past him, and called Dave's Rentals to reserve a small fishing boat or cabin cruiser. I told him how to stock it, charged it all like a patriotic American, and called Eddie back to confirm. I have to admit that Eddie can go from a preppy looking junior law partner to a pure tramp/sleaze in one hour or less. In a little over three hours, we were just outside of Bedford and all at once Eddie hollered at me, "Stop the car." I've learned three things about Eddie over the years of road tripping when he's on shotgun patrol and gives that command. One is that he has to piss like a racehorse, or I just missed the hottest hunk in the universe hitchhiking his butt off, or I missed a turn off. And in two out of three cases, it's wise for me to stop. Five hundred yards or so behind us was a guy in cutoff jeans and a tank top.
"Only for you, Eddie, only for you," I jokingly complained. I put the car in reverse and slowly began backing up.
As the hitchhiker jogged up to the side of the car, Eddie looked at his sign and said, "P-town, huh?"
"Yeah, I've got friends up there and thought I'd visit for the weekend." He looked in the car and figured we were safe. Hey, two guys, upper twenties, dressed in vacation gear aren't exactly going to an Elks Convention.
"Friends, huh?" said Eddie, impressing the guy's own words back on him. We both knew what he was going to do with any guy he could find during a wild party weekend. We had done it, Eddie and me – parties at The Boat Slip, drag shows at the pre-fire Pilgrim House, midnight trips to the monument, twilight whale watching. We'd done it all at one time or another, just never with each other. "We can give you a lift as far as Hyannis if you want."
No fool, Eddie. He opened the door and stepped out. He told him to toss his backpack into the back of the car, and hop in the front because the air conditioner worked better. So now we had this young hot puppy sitting between us for at least the next forty minutes or so. Eddie's legal technique of questioning soon had the guy telling us his complete biography. We knew everything about him except his social security number.
Eddie and I had worked out the auto routine over the years. Trapped between us, Eddie would keep him talking and switching from general to sexual topics, while I, as the driver, would begin making the lower leg contact – you know, the hand off the steering wheel to push in the cigarette lighter and then resting on my knee but also touching his, then getting the lighter when it was ready, lighting a smoke, offering a smoke, returning the lighter, and making contact again with flesh. Then leaving it there for a bit and slowly moving it up the thigh.
By that time, the intended victim would be giving implied consent, or gently brush our hands aside and let his own rest there as a guard/protector. This guy had been hitching long enough that he knew the game so well he beat me to the lighter opening gambit. He just stretched his legs apart a little until he was pressuring our legs, and said matter of fact, "If either or both of you want to party tonight in Hyannis, I'm game, but I will need a ride all the way to P-town afterward or tomorrow morning. Is that agreeable?"

KALAMAZOO -- At some point in all of our lives, we express tentative interest in an idea and then watch as we get further roped into it, to the point it feels too late to back out.
We give up control and then, either because of friendship, fear or simply lack of time, we never take it back.
Western Michigan University isn't there yet when it comes to the proposed downtown Kalamazoo arena. It may ultimately decide that moving its men's basketball and ice hockey games to a brand-new $81-million facility is the right move.
But whatever the university decides, it should remember that it holds the cards.
All of them, if it wants to.
An initial feasibility study financed by the well-meaning, but aggressive local nonprofit group Suite Idea, Inc. -- created solely for the purpose of trying to build an arena -- found that without WMU's two winter revenue sports as full-time tenants, the 6,800-seat venue couldn't sustain itself.
Suite Idea, made up of influential business leaders, some with ties to the three needed tenants -- including Kalamazoo Wings hockey -- has to sell the idea to the Kalamazoo County Board of Commissioners and then to voters.
Western Michigan's administration shouldn't let itself be taken for granted as part of the package.
WMU's initial interest was only as a part-time tenant. Yet, as willing partners and friends with the city, it is publicly operating mostly under the mantra, "What is really good for the community is good for this university," as director of athletics Kathy Beauregard said Friday.
She also quickly added, "With that said, there are still a lot of unknowns out there."
A ton, actually.
But first, what appears understood by all:
-- WMU must "remain whole financially," as Beauregard put it. That means advertising revenue from signage, ticket sales and all that jazz will at least flow at the same rate it does now from University Arena and Lawson Ice Arena.
-- All three teams would have their own permanent locker rooms, with their own distinct logos and colors, according to Kenneth Miller, chairman of WMU's Board of Trustees and a leading member of Suite Idea.
-- And WMU student admission would remain free.
These are all important issues, all of which could be deal-breakers.
From WMU's perspective, there should be a few more.
One question that Miller and Beauregard can't answer yet: Where does WMU fit in terms of priority?
For the K-Wings, this move is a no-brainer, despite early public fidgeting from owner William Johnston.
But that's not necessarily the case for WMU, especially its men's basketball program -- even if there are many positives and some overblown worry about student attendance.
There's no question that WMU hockey and basketball could use the boost in recruiting a facility of this sort offers. Both have lost and will continue to lose teen-age prospects who are impressed by sparkling new facilities.
The threat of losing student attendance is moot. WMU hockey would be better served to cleanse itself of its current student fan base, so vulgar that families are staying away. Men's basketball, though the students tend to be more civilized, is much more a community event anyway.
And, as Miller pointed out, the new arena site is only about a mile from most of campus, "and 80 percent live off campus, and students go off campus almost daily to drink."
However, what does matter is how the arena's constructed, how it's painted -- are the seats and railings brown and gold? -- and which team takes priority when it comes to scheduling.
University Arena is an outstanding place to watch a college basketball game. The atmosphere can be deafening and the sight lines, especially from those seats almost on top of the court in the corners, are fantastic.
In a multipurpose, perhaps hockey-first facility, you'd likely lose some of the intimacy and experience.
"If they're considering going through with this, I would tell them to spend a lot of time as a university with (the planners)," University of Wisconsin-Green Bay athletics director Ken Bothof said.
UW-Green Bay's men's basketball team plays in one of these downtown, multifaceted venues -- the 9,800-seat Resch Center.
The advantage: It's right next to Lambeau Field and the restaurants and bars that serve the area.
The disadvantage: "It's not an ideal basketball facility from my perspective," said Bothof, adding that only about half of the seats are good for watching a basketball game.
If fewer than 4,000 show up -- UW-Green Bay averages about 4,700 -- "it's not a good atmosphere," he said.
WMU basketball usually brings in about 3,500. Hockey, a little over 2,000.
What would the arena feel like with 3,000 or more empty seats?
UW-Green Bay doesn't draw many students, though its campus is 15 miles away. On the up side, with alcohol sales, those 50 drunk guys yelling at Broncos coach Steve Hawkins during WMU's trip to Green Bay in 2008, well, they'd be taunting the other coach.
"It definitely adds to it," Hawkins said of the beer-fueled atmosphere.
Another question: Does it look like WMU's home? Or the K-Wings'? Western Michigan should make sure the arena has its share of Bronco feel if its presence is required.
Whose schedule is most important? In the world of midmajor college basketball, being able to move a game date as late as September is a must. In Green Bay, the men's basketball program gets first dibs on all dates before the minor league hockey team, Donny Osmond on Ice or anything else.
What about visiting-team protocol? Can teams practice or skate at the arena the night before, as is the case most places? Can the Broncos practice there?
Will donors pay for locker room and other "long-overdue" upgrades, as Beauregard phrased it, at University Arena if it's no longer the game-day home for the men's basketball team? Some of the same questions stand for Lawson Ice Arena.
Here's a sweet idea, WMU: Don't jump into this until you hear the right answer to all, or at least most, of these questions.

With the NHL trade deadline past us, it's the time of year that all teams make their annual "final push" as you might have it towards the playoffs.
San Jose Sharks fan have gotten very used to being safely secured atop the Pacific Division, welcoming lower seeded teams into the Shark Tank.
Sharks fans also felt at the beginning of the season, and most still believe, that on paper the current Sharks roster is amongst the strongest they have ever put out on the ice.
Well the stats on the other end of that piece of paper don't back that up.
The Sharks currently sit in eighth place in the Pacific Division, which means if the season ended tomorrow, they'd have none other than the Vancouver Canucks to look forward to in the first round.
Let's take a look at all the teams that currently make up the Western Conference's top eight and who would be the best opponents for the Sharks, if the season ended tomorrow.

Greeley man on trial for groping a child
May 23, 2013
Testimony began Tuesday morning in the trial of a Greeley man accused of sexually assaulting a girl.
William Hernandez , 48, was charged in the case after the girl told police Hernandez had grabbed her breasts while she sat on his lap, according to a Greeley police arrest affidavit.
He is accused of assaulting the girl in April 2012, and police began investigating that September.
Hernandez is on trial for sexual assault on a child. Two other charges in the case — sexual assault on a child by one in a position of trust and sexual assault on a child with a pattern of abuse — are set to be tried later this year, according to the Weld District Attorney's Office.
According to the affidavit, Hernandez was at the girl's home, and he asked her to sit on his lap when her parents left the room.
The girl told police he grabbed her breasts and said, "When did you get these?" The girl said nothing else happened that day.
Senior Deputy District Attorney Audrey Galloway said in her opening statements that Hernandez, a former Aims Community College instructor, took steps to ensure that no one else would see him assault the girl, waiting until her parents left the room.
"The timing was no accident," Galloway said.
Robert Ray, Hernandez's attorney, did not make opening statements, reserving that option for later in the trial.
The district attorney's office said earlier that investigators found Hernandez may have assaulted the girl on several different occasions.
Hernandez resigned from his position at Aims in January, said Marci Liddell, president of the college. He was an instructor in the Aims Automotive Center in Windsor, and he was hired to work at the college in 1995.
The trial, which began Monday with jury selection, is set to last all week.

N.J. — A&P's vision for the future is now on display on the Upper East Side of Manhattan, where a recent Food Emporium renovation strikes a "store of the neighborhood" profile the chain hopes to replicate throughout its various banners. The 16,000-square-foot store is the third in the Food Emporium chain to receive an extensive renovation since November. A&P also recently revealed makeovers at two New Jersey Pathmark stores, showcasing a ...

Contemplative Man
Series: Transition
Active. Interrupted. Disruptive.
Contemplative Man is part of a body of sculptures from the series Transition portraying an identity in change, embodying tradition and modernity in the physical form.
Its human form, a representation of man, unchanging, existent. Its low poly structure, a representation of modernity and innovation in an increasingly digital era.
The physical minimalism; the incomplete and raw nature to the work, echoes the imbued sentiment of transition throughout.
As with Infinite (2012), Omar's work focuses on the interconnectivity between man and his surroundings as an ontological examination. The pieces in Transition collectively represent a nation evolving as they communicate the progressive values of development.
In his contemplation, lost in thought, he is undisturbed by the progress around him, subconsciously acquiescing to it, personifying advancement.
Contemplative Man is a modern, physical, digital visual interpretation of the human form and a society in transition.
Omar Khalifa is a multi award-winning commercial director and artist with work that includes films for high-end brands such as Qatar Airways, Vodafone and Ooredoo. His short films and photography have been exhibited, displayed and installed in over forty cities across the world. Omar's installation work exists as an analysis of the space between; that of transformation, transition, growth, and diminishment across different mediums.
This piece is available for purchase (12,000 QAR).
Further works in the same series can also be commissioned.

This week's Any Given Sunday does double-duty, looking at both the Oakland win over Cincinnati and the Kansas City win over Pittsburgh. Did these games represent the culmination of trends that could cost these teams their playoff spots? The answer will please Bengals fans and disappoint Steelers fans.

Last week's Any Given Sunday talked about how bad the Packers' offensive line was. Then they went out and beat the Cowboys. So what about the other half of the team? This week's Any Given Sunday talks about how their defense (top-ranked in DVOA) could drag that awful offensive line into the playoffs anyway.

Here's another trip around the matchups of the week featuring FO's advanced stats. Among the things you will learn this week: Pittsburgh should throw more passes to its running backs, the Jets' pass defense is an all-around strength, the Minnesota defense gets tired at the end of games, and the most penalized player in the NFL is Buffalo tackle Demetrius Bell.

Are you willing to tell a patient that due to over use of fidax and resistance developed there is nothing I can do for you.... Prudent use of antibiotics is the best way to save lives, promote quality, and keeping healthcare spending down. This is common sense 101.
it's not an attempt to demean...he has repeatedly used idiotic, etc. in describing others' posts, so it is simply some of his own "medicine". I am not desperate, but a long term investor in OPTR, and am not certain he is a doctor because of comments he makes about vanco and treating patients. Believe me, I have plenty of credibility, and do not need your blessing - however observant you believe them to be. Thanks for your participation in the discussion, however limited it may be; maybe you could go research infectious disease yourself and provide some valuable information for the board?
Not as much as stating you are in the medical field ....not saying how you are involved.....pitching a drug that's obviously losing status......making unfounded statements and using inflammatory terms to describe someone else!!!!!!! Oh,and call your "doc" friend....you all made the top 15 in increase of short interest. Then call the" I shorted and got fried" hotline!!!!!
Not going to side either way on this, but your repeated atttempts to demean someone by continuously using "doc" in double quotes makes you look desperate and takes a lot of credibility out of your arguments.
and we get a much better picture for FIDAX...20% fewer, which is where the scenario I posed to you earlier comes in. You treat 10 patients w/ vanco, while I treat 10 with Dificid. The rate of recurrence for you may be 3/10 (30%), while the rate for my patients is only 2.4/10 (24%) - a 6% (or 20% reduction from your 30%) decrease in RATE of recurrence. As you expand the number of patients to hundreds of thousands per year, it becomes clear that your argument (based almost ENTIRELY on the COST of the med, by the way) is not very "patient-friendly"...imo, of course.
BTW, noticed you said "had recurrence", rather than "still had recurrence" - is that because the rate of recurrence was LESS than that for vanco? let's try to make apples-to-apples comps, "doc", for the board in future posts.
How's today's pps treating you? Guess proinvestor was right...back to single-digits...not.
WHAT the F? what are you talking about????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
By the way phuckwad, how is your investment holding up?
recurrence with Dificid was 50% less than with Vanco,
Main cause of recurrence is not due to resistance. If you do not get it by now, you will never understand. Even in the fidax treatment group there was a 15 percent recurrence (and these were not resistant strains). Fidax role in c.diff treatment is over rated. Either we are stupid or you are mis-guided. All I know is that optr is dropping like a rock. Someone is being mis guided.
In clinical trials both vancomycin and fidax treatment group had recurrences. Can you please explain why fidax group had recurrence (15 percent)??????
Can you please explain to me in your own words the difference between recurrence and resistance ?
tell that to the 20% that you kill or give that answer to atty.s of same....also all hosp.s and all h/c co.s are on the same results of care page...a red flag and non-pay status will come your way as a result of the old-line thinking/reasoning?? that you profess Review my posts...I am still at a major hosp. and I did what you told me....asked ID Doc[same as or better than Rx] and a GI Doc about your first-line premise....sorry you are 0-2 in fact the direct quote of GI Doc was "Have that Doc crank that telephone and ring me up" Next ASSignment??
20% of patients with c.diff will die ? Hahahahahahahahahahahahaha hahaha that is the best joke I have heard....oh sorry.... You were serious. Recurrence does not equal death... If that was true, optr would be $100 by now.... You really screwed up the data.
