Their mom came out through the front door of the house in time to see the rescue ladder shooting up to the roof. “What’s all this?”
A rescuer looked down at her. “We’ll get ’em down for you, Ma’am.”
David and Patty continued sitting on the roof. David lowered his hand. Their mother looked in the doorway, then looked up at the rescue squad. “You boys go home. Sorry you got bothered. Patty, come on down. David you stay there.”
Patty hopped onto the porch and looked in the doorway. “You’re the best, David! Now we got GREAT TV reception!”

All that trouble for better TV reception? I can imagine the firemen fuming as they left.
Haha! I think he’s going to want to buy an antenna pretty soon.

And they are so nonchalant about it, that’s what makes it funny.
A new perpective on ‘aerial view’. Nice one! š
Hahahahaha! Very good.
What a family! Poor firemen
Dear Kent,
LOLOLOL!!!! Maybe Mom should try tin foil on the rabbit ears. Just a suggestion, of course.
Shalom,

Of course.
Ha! An amusing read… I know of things one has to do to get a clear TV reception. š
That was funny!

Good one, Kent. Growing up, we only got three stations and the reception was always better when someone was hold the antenna pole.
That brings back memories, to be sure… well done, darling.
Yes there were days when you needed to do things like that for a TV-reception. Now it’s all about connecting a fiber.
Ha! Unfortunately I knew a family like that growing up. š
Ahahahaha! Loved it! š
Yes but what fantastic reception they must be getting now! Probably from Mars! š
very cute. But since it is round, do you get a 360 degree view?
This is great Kent. i remember times when our parents were out and my sister and i would try wiggling the antenna for ages to get the programmes our school friends told us about.
hahaha sounds like a nice family š
