SF story bleg

Somewhere in the back of my brain exist memories of a story about a mission to Jupiter or Saturn. Someone had discovered that there existed beings on whichever gas giant it was that were trying to escape the gravity and pressure so they could destroy or at least fight with Earth. Of course no materials existed that would withstand the pressure, so scientists/engineers developed forcefields with the required strength which turned out to be unstable. So they dismissed the idea as impossible and quit, writing off the invasion as ‘Impossible”

An individual took the data, and made a force field that flickered, like a fluorescent light, so that it was only “On” for time periods far too short to become unstable. it nearly cost him his life but he succeeded where the engineers/scientists chose not to proceed.

I cannot remember the name of that to save my bacon. Anyone?

Waaaah

I do love watching the Beeb, mostly for Top Gear, but occasionally you stumble across another gem, like this “Jamie Olivers Food revolution”. Here’s a bad video of him crying about it.

Apparently he’s gone to some school in America and told them “stop eating this food, here’s food that’s healthier” and predictably, people got upset, and it made him cry.

Look, you downs syndrome monkey boy: Schools feed kids what they will eat and what their budget allows. Kids don’t like gourmet meals. That chicken and crap you cooked might taste great, but kids will always choose pizza.

yeah, yeah. Americans are fat. Not like no Brits are fat, jesus, look at them. But Jamie has to come here to show us how superior Brits are in nutrition. Really? Then why do half of you not have any fucking teeth?

Piss off Jamie. You morons would all have breath that reeks of German cock if we hadn’t come and bailed you out of Chamberlain’s stupid, you were the first nation to have a TV show about fat people exclusively, and your white trash are horrifying. You got no business in our business, so get the fuck out. You have a whole NATION the size of Michigan and you can’t keep it together. We’re supposed to take you seriously?

Maggie Thatcher is probably rolling in her… well, when she dies she’ll roll in her grave. Bury her opposite Churchill so they cancel each other out, otherwise the spinning will probably upset the gravitational field of earth.

Oh, and send over Aggie MacKenzie, I want to have steaming monkey sex with her, even though she’s as jowly as a blue tick hound.

was fairly empty, seeing this was the height of home repair season. I had just gone in to get a new board for the mailbox base and folowed a woman wearing yoga pants- not one of those anorectic boy- ass bitches that appeal to the closeted gay guys, but an actual woman with actual curves, And the yoga pants made it known what those curves were capable of doing. I was mesmerized. I was so mesmerized that I bumped into her husband. He was watching me watch her, and smiled and said “yeah. It has that effect on me too”

I finished my shopping and left, happy to have escaped a tuneup.
