First showing in the May, 1962 journal Fantastic Reports of Creativity, Double or Little or nothing, by Jack port Sharkey, is a tongue-firmly-in-cheek science fiction short tale chronicling a few amusing, tragic-but-still-funny, days and nights in the lives of wacky inventor Artie Lindstrom and Burt, his long-suffering engineer/fabricator spouse and the tale's narrator. It really is summertime, in the probably distant future, and Artie Lindstrom - the wizard behind a remotely-triggered jar cover opener that became the weapon that defeated the Martian invasion, a drinking water desalinization machine that inadvertently produced gin, and a loss of life ray gun that obliterated Venus during the Three-Day Battle - has sketched out strategies for an anti-gravity machine very little bigger than a mini-fridge. Burt, not absolutely all that convinced that Artie's invention is such a good idea, nonetheless builds the device matching to plan. Pursuing Artie's and Burt's few exams and revisions, in a vintage example of unintended consequences, nothing at all else ever goes matching to plan again. After hearing Double or Little or nothing, you'll never take a look at a humble plate of cornflakes in quite the same way.
