At the time, it seemed as though I was riding a high speed rail car traveling past the speed of sound. One step followed another and so on down the pa...h of inevitability.I wouldn't change at thing.The bullet train started on a Wednesday when I was returning home from a week long business trip. I traveled regularly in my job as a Senior Account Executive for a large Printing Press company. Our presses retailed at nearly a million dollars each and with all the bells and whistles could easily. "We came to catch you and steal anything of value you might have," the other one said."Well, you got here just in the knick of time. Turn around and put your hands behind your back. Karen will strap you up with a couple of plastic ties. Won't you Karen?" I'll be glad to, but I know about these two too. They're sneaky bastards, and there's usually another one with them," she said."In that case the two of you spread out about ten feet and lay face down on the ground with your hands behind your.

Besides, Jack is finally regaining consciousness."Then Jennifer says, "Todd, I think we need to get Mira to a hospital ASAP."Mira smiles and calmly agrees, "Yes that would be most advisable."Bernie and I carefully pick up Mira and carry her toward the waiting helicopter; Jennifer follows and says, "I will travel to the hospital with her."We load Mira into the helicopter, Jennifer jumps in along with Alexi and the level. A few minutes later she tottered back in to the room on her high heels, glass of wine in one hand for her and a cold beer in the other which she duly put down on the table in front of me. I knew I was onto to something here now for sure, she had undone a couple of buttons on her blouse now as well. Before I knew what had happened she was off to the fridge again for my third beer and her third wine. It was now or never I thought. I took her panties out of my pocket and placed then on the coffee.
