&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Part 2: The Lower Torso&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Try as he might, Jay couldn’t stop himself from taking in the full view of Vanessa’s heaving breasts.  Normally milky white, they were now a bright pink.  As she squirmed slightly, quietly struggling against her self-administered restraint, his comment about “desert” hung in the air like the bad joke that it was.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>The Body Puzzle</title><link>/stories/1/01/01/the-body-puzzle/</link><pubDate>Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>/stories/1/01/01/the-body-puzzle/</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Part 1: The Upper Torso&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Jay was a mechanical engineer. He loved math and physics which was probably the source of his fascination with three dimensional puzzles. Only a few years out of college, Jay had a solid start on a successful career, but sometimes he wished that he had spent as much time improving his social skills as he did his engineering skills.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Basically, Jay was shy and lonely, and he had few opportunities to change that. With nobody waiting for him at home, he tended to spend more and more time at work, and his cycle of solitude perpetuated itself. Jay thought that he might never find someone to share his life with until he met Vanessa.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
