I quote the story below.

The Very Busy Fire Brigade

I came up with this idea from reading a humorous meme on Facebook way too many times, so I had to write something.

No one knows why people’s pants literally started catching on fire every time they told the slightest fib, but it made for very exciting television and maybe not so exciting consequences for the person involved.

Needless to say, the fire department was very busy. Major businesses had taken to employing small groups of firefighters to follow behind certain people (you know the type) and spray them down with fire extinguishers. Most people learned to live for this except for those in power, which seemed to scoff and turn up their noses at the idea despite evidence to the contrary.

None of this was more prevalent than in Washington where small groups of firefighters were kept busy around the clock every time a politician went anywhere. It didn’t matter the party or affiliation everywhere politicians’ pants were constantly bursting into flame. This also made voting easier because you always knew who was being truthful and who wasn’t.

Pants on fire

Part Two Follows


“Please don’t send the brigade again.” One irritated politician sighed before his latest speech.

“Are you sure sir?” A security detail asked looking worried, “it comes highly recommended.”

“I’m positive!” The politician in question snapped.  Afterward, he would straighten his lapels, and comb his close-cropped hair. “Besides, I can handle myself.”

Needless to say, said politician would be very sorry later if he had to be doused by the closest pitcher of water or if the fire department had to be called and he was out a pair of trousers.

This phenomenon was also used to great effect within the judicial system itself. Corrupt judges were weeded out and small groups of firefighters followed around criminals every time they spoke to law enforcement. Trials became efficient because there were usually quicker confessions.

Smart people tried to avoid this in the court itself, because who wanted to get charged with perjury, and well, the results spoke for themselves.

Super Science Stories from September for You

New Science Books

Super Science Stories for you, selected by sensei Andy Zach from September’s internet. Let’s start with this super story.

How do you feel about bringing the wooly mammoth back to life? Some think we should work at saving our current elephant species around the world. Others think mammoths may upset the current ecosystem in the arctic.

As a long-time dinosaur and paleontological fan, I’d love it. But let me know what you think in a comment or by contacting me here. I’ll give an ebook to each response

Super Science Stories Continued

This is a valid question. The US military has explored airship designs for sixty years. They can go to the stratosphere, above all weather and be supplied by airplanes indefinitely.

Is this science, or science fiction, or throwback science to steampunk fiction? Let me know by a comment or replying to me here. Contact us by clicking here.

Breaking News from Peoria on September 30, 2021!

Yup, you’ve got it right: my latest novel is fully released as paperback and Kindle on Amazon. Of course, you can always get it at a discount, autographed, with free shipping from me by clicking right here.

If you can travel to Peoria tomorrow, you can see me at PeoriaCon at the Expo-Gardens. That’s only a mile from my house in northern Peoria! Please tell me you’ll be there and I’ll give you a free book. Click here or on the above post to let me know. Or just tell me on Saturday.

What is science fiction? I agree with Robert Heinlein’s definition below.

Look Out Below for More Science Stories

Is feasible fusion finally here?

Excuse my cynicism, but I’ve heard that fusion was right around the corner for at least fifty of my sixty-five years. When do you think it’ll be here?

Next, you’ve got some October humor, timely and topical.

I’ve got one last military scifi story for you. Or would you say this story is more science-based? The story does have biology and robotics inside of it.

Now for the real last meme of this post. Here you go, my friends. Get ready for some football! With eggs.

New Science Books for You, and Science Fiction

New Science Books for You – let’s begin immediately with my book review.

New Science Book
The story of SpaceX

The dramatic inside story of the historic flights that launched SpaceX—and Elon Musk—from a shaky startup into the world’s leading-edge rocket company.

What a great description of the recent history of SpaceX, built and led by Elon Musk and his incredible team of dedicated engineers and space fanatics! Author Eric Berger interviewed the key leaders within the company, gleaning many wonderful stories around the development of the Falcon 1, the first independent commercial rocket to go into orbit.

Mr. Berger tells the story very well, building the characterization of each major person involved in the company. One of the key lessons for me was how effective Musk is at hiring people with passion and skill.

Given the personal descriptions of the engineers, as a reader you really pull for the team. You hurt as the first three Falcon 1 rockets crash and the team has to debug what went wrong and start over. You feel the urgency for success as Musk’s finances dwindle to just $30 million in cash for both SpaceX and Tesla, which was also strapped for cash.

I highly recommend this for anyone interested in Elon Musk, engineering, or the space program.

From Andy’s Goodreads review.

New Science Fiction, as well as New Science Books

What’s the new science fiction?

New Science Books
