Howdy!
Another Friday is upon us, y’all. Time sure flies.
So, I mentioned a while back that I may be changing the name of this newsletter/podcast (more episodes will be coming this year. I have plans). I’m no longer living in suburbia, so the current name just doesn’t work.
Way back when, I named my website “Brain Squeezins”. Then I changed it to Jake Bible Fiction for branding and name recognition. The website will still be Jake Bible Fiction since it’s a repository for all things JBF. But this substack is gonna get a name change.
Take a look at the graphic for the new name. It’ll also be the podcast graphic. Simple, fun, macabre when you dial in on it. Feel free to throw your opinion in the comments.
Cool?
Now, on with the free micro-fiction!
Cheers!

These Buggers
By
Jake Bible
“Pull back!”
“What?”
“Pull back! There are too many!”
“Nah. We got this.”
“Are you insane? Look at them all!”
“That’s nothing. One time, when I was on TS938-A, I was completely overrun by nargols. You ever seen a nargol? Way worse than these buggers.”
“These buggers shoot fire from all orifices!”
“They do?”
“YES!”
“Huh…. Didn’t know that. We should probably pull back.”
“That’s what I’ve been saying! EVERYONE! PULL BACK!”
“The brass won’t like this.”
“The brass can kiss my ass!”
“That rhymes.”
“Shut up and pull back!”
“Chill, man… Hey, I ever tell you about the time…”

Somewhere in the back of my mind ( you wouldn’t want to go there) there is a short story I read once long ago - guy has to read up on everything there is - compulsion - at the end, all knowledge is drained out of him. All at once. Boom. After it happens, someone asks him what happened. He replies “I been squoze.” So that might be a brain squeeze. Or not. Anyway. Anyone else go back that far or that story stick with anyone else. Interested to know if I am the only packrat out here.
