Let's contract some electricity.

There are a bunch of different types of contractors.  Take electric contractors.  They are normally the best kind.  I mean they deal with electricity.  Electricity is almost an other-worldly phenomenon.  You can't just contract that stuff and not be good.  Is that what electric contractors do?  Contract electricity?  I'm not even sure what that means.  I know what to contract means:

an agreement between two or more parties for the doing or not doing of something specified.

And we all know what electricity is.  Either way, electricity is cool, so electric contractors must be as well.  I think the best form of electricity is lightning.  I used to live in Syracuse New York, and that was my first time really seeing lightning.  We didn't get it like we got it in Ohio, but it still was something.   


Did you know that lightning regularly is 6 to 8 miles long?  Like it travels that far from earth to cloud?  And you can hear it sometimes from 12 miles away?  And check this out, a lot of people get struck by lightning while the skies above them are still clear, lightning can break the cloud perimeter and just reach out and punch you in the face. (figuratively of course)  


Anyways, try not to get struck by lightning.  It could hurt.
