Homemade Antenna Stacking

 

The best Christmas ever was when my brother helped me get a flat-screen TV. But I soon learned that I needed an antenna for the TV to pick up signals from local broadcast stations that transmit their programming over the air.

Sir-Croak-a-Lot spotted Zippy the fly and chased him. Zippy managed to slip through a tiny, concealed crack and flew out the window. Unaware that the window was closed, Sir-Croak-a-Lot collided with the clear glass, leaving smudges from his large frog hands and feet. He let out an angry croak, causing his mustache and beard to vanish as his skin stretched.
