The Latest Technology
“They’re coming!” Tommy warned.
“Just one more,” Mike said. “Hold the ladder while I get down.”
Mike and Tommy scampered away, lugging the ladder out of sight. They could hear their father approaching, a handful of friends in tow.
“Electricity is the latest technology,” Alexander explained. “No need for candles or kerosene. Lights up an entire room.”
As the group gathered in the foyer, Alexander flicked the light switch. Everyone looked up – and saw four forlorn-looking kittens on the light fixture, each illuminated by the light bulb next to it.
The kittens looked even more astonished than the men. “Meow.”

It's a long story ... 
Boys are such mischief makers. Poor kittens. I hope they got rescued quickly.
Yes, Alexander found his sons peeking in through the window and made them take down the kittens right away. No animals were harmed in the writing of the story or backstory.
Cute story, Tresha. Well done. 🙂 — Suzanne
And shortly thereafter, the first chapter of the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals was formed! 😉
Love the humor, and Lorna’s take on it. Very well done!
