&lt;p&gt;Friday, August  the 4th, was one of the hottest day of the year. In an already warm summer, temperatures rised to a sky-high, for the Region, 38 °C. Have no idea how much is in Fahrenheit for the US around… do the math by yourself…&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;But there was this urge in him. The need of rubber and selfbondage.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;So, he loaded his car with a big bag full of his rubber gear and implements of pain. And he drove some 50 km on the highway, until he reached a rest and tank station where some restrooms would offer some space to change into his latex.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>Rbrbill Exposed</title><link>/stories/2017/04/02/rbrbill-exposed/</link><pubDate>Sun, 02 Apr 2017 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>/stories/2017/04/02/rbrbill-exposed/</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Rbrbill Exposed&lt;/strong&gt; – Journal entries of my journey in rubber for the last several years.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Some of these writing were completed while sealed in rubber. I left the errors from glove fumbles or restricted vision as they were posted in my FetLife entries. All of these events true.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Backgrounder, A profile of a Rubberist&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I am a lifelong rubberist. I&amp;rsquo;ve enjoyed all types of rubber and latex including boots, waders, wetsuits, rain gear (rubber only), gloves and latex clothing. I am a total enclosure lover and enjoy sealing myself in total enclosure whenever I can.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>Deserved Fate</title><link>/stories/2015/03/08/deserved-fate/</link><pubDate>Sun, 08 Mar 2015 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>/stories/2015/03/08/deserved-fate/</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;What had I done to deserve this? What had I done?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I am a rubberist. I’ve been one as long as I can remember. I mean my first memory as a child was my sister’s heavy rubber-lined cotton pink rain coat. You know the ones if you can remember back to the mid-1950s. It had those brass-tone buckles… I think four of them… that you pushed the tongue through the female slot then flipped the thing closed. The collar was a stiff corduroy lined rubber. When the top buckled was closed the thing fitted tight to my neck. There was a matching pink rain hat… it was floppy and had a brim all around. I never wore the coat in the rain but I wore it in our apartment in Brooklyn. I felt a certain safety in its cool slick outer shell and the knowledge, even as a little boy, the material would shield me from all manner of evil things… well that was the fantasy I envisioned… total protection from all those bad things out there.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>Convoluted Knots</title><link>/stories/2014/12/02/convoluted-knots/</link><pubDate>Tue, 02 Dec 2014 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>/stories/2014/12/02/convoluted-knots/</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;Luke was unlike most of his fellow college students. While he studied hard, he also needed his time outdoors, and doing sports. He particularly enjoyed sailing, and rock climbing, and it was not easy to find a college where he could practice both, but he did.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;One day Luke got a visit from his dorm buddy Mike. But Mike seemed embarrassed. &amp;ldquo;Luke, I need to ask you something, but I can&amp;rsquo;t tell you why. With all that sailing and climbing you do, you must be pretty good with knots, right? Do you think you could teach me how to tie a couple of proper knots?&amp;rdquo;&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>Ambush at Mill Creek Park</title><link>/stories/2009/07/01/ambush-at-mill-creek-park/</link><pubDate>Wed, 01 Jul 2009 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>/stories/2009/07/01/ambush-at-mill-creek-park/</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;Here is another one to add to the group of short stories as opposed to novelettes&amp;hellip;what is fact and what is fiction&amp;hellip;you&amp;rsquo;ll never know&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;After all these years, I’ve slipped back to my roots of rubberism.  I am wading again, not just wading in water to my knees or waist but deep water and thick mud.  The deeper the water and mud the better!  Feeling the gooey mud pressing rubber close about me is the most amazing feeling.  The cool from the mud works it way through the layers and keeps me cool even as I exert great effort just to pull my feet out of the bog and sink into the next brown sucking spot.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
