"Say, Tom, that IS tough, having your meteorite thrown overboard!" exclaimed Ned, rereading the message. "All your work wasted and your marvelous invention junked " "Not yet!" broke in the young scientist grimly as he grabbed the telephone from his desk. "Hello, operator, get me long distance, please." "What are you going to do?" asked Ned excitedly. "Get divers," replied Tom as he waited.
Since the press had some questions about the motives behind releasing the Grudge Report, it received very little publicity while the writers put out feelers. Consequently in early 1950 you didn't read much about flying saucers. Evidently certain people in the Air Force thought this lull in publicity meant that the UFO's had finally died because Project Grudge was junked.
We junked all our boosters behind us on this take-off, and don't forget that, my friends." Weeks looked confused. "But I thought you said we could do this legal," he appealed to Rip. "If we're Patrol Posted as outlaws " "They can't do any more to us than they can for running in a plague ship," Ali pointed out. "Either will get us blasted if we happen into the wrong vector now. So what do we do?"
Out Here and on Earth, too... Most of the guys that are single in this crowd have girls who will be on the way soon. Some of the tougher space-fitness tests are being junked. We're even screening a small batch of runaways from Ceres to be included in the next load. An experiment. But it should work out.
The more effete system can always be added later and the faithful old pipeless junked, moved to some other building, or left in place for an emergency, such as a public-utility-crippling blizzard or flood. Whether one lives in the country or the city, geology and geography govern the source of the water that flows from the tap.
It's a Whittington habit to carry through what you begin. Well, Percy, you've certainly made good." A glimmer of pride, the first he had ever shown in his son, crossed his face. "I blamed you for junking your auto. Now I've gone and junked a yacht that'll cost me more than fifty times as much. Well, there's no fool like the old fool! But it's been worth it."
"Sir," said Mrs. Pearce in her slow sad voice, after a glance at his face in search of sarcasm, "'tisn't milk. 'Tis a junket that hasn't junked." "Indeed?" said Fritzing, bland because ignorant. Mrs. Pearce fidgeted a little, wrestling perhaps with her conscience, before she added defiantly, "It wouldn't."
Why should I blush to own it when the gipsy, after all, junked an old rich goutified coffee planter at the eleventh hour, and married me, and is now the mother of half a dozen little Cringles or so?
"I think it goes without saying, sir, that we'd appreciate it very much if you could recommend that she be restored instead of junked." Connel allowed himself a smile in the face of such obvious love for the ship. "You forget that to repair her out in space, the parts have to be hauled from Venus. But I'll see what I can do.
"She's junk-jinxed," said the man, using the expression of spacemen who believed a ship with a suspicious accident record should be junked because it was jinxed. "Junk-jinxed!" cried Connel, amazed. "Preposterous," snorted Professor Hemmingwell. "Why, you helped build this ship, Scotty! Do you doubt the work you've put into her? Or the work of your friends?"
