I heard an anecdote that happened in a village . Its inhabitants were all farmers, farm work did not leave much free time, but still worried about youth culture. They met in house Pascual, was the best bar in town. The establishment had two floors. In the first, had a large room where there was a counter or bar and tables in which served wine or coffee and playing the odd game of cards and dominoes. On the second floor, ample space was home to young people participating in the cultural events that they, carried out among them, testing (which belonged to the band), then the scores that would play at parties. I was told, this town was very open to everything new.
came to the attention of the owner of Casa Pascual who had invented a device that was called Radio, from which you could hear people talking from far away and felt so curious that he decided to buy one for the enjoyment of all parishioners.
He went to the capital accompanied by two of his best friends, to acquire such a wonderful invention.
bought the largest and most beautiful they saw, along with the shelf on which it would. Again the people very happy. Decided to install it on the top floor. The presentation would on Sunday. Pascual bar owner (same name). made it known to all who attended Sunday morning to take the wine with the appropriate cover.
Given the importance of the news and at about noon, the town crier accompanied by a few kids who followed him around town. It also announced the neighbors. With this proclamation, that after three blasts on the horn said
is made all the neighbors know that Sunday morning at six o'clock in the afternoon, the bar
Pascual will be heard on the radio for the first time this town.
FYI so I do know.
Men who wanted to go (because women was frowned on to go to the tavern). at six o'clock in the afternoon and were in the bar. Pascual was happy and satisfied faces a smile of welcome to all who came. There was not enough chairs for many attendees. That did not stop everyone happy and impatient waiting for the time announced. When it saw fit Pascual gave permission to the electrician (who was knowledgeable about this.) to connect the radio. Those who had started the game of cards or dominoes left him and went to the second plant. Pascual
feared the roof would collapse. Everyone was expectant eyes did not remove the device. The first thing they heard was ads like these and more.

After a songs of the period, following thus afternoon programming. The listeners were perplexed not believe he had just heard the voice so close to the man who spoke so far.
In a moment ... everything started to shake. Billiard balls that were left on the table began to rodades, as if an invisible player playing a game. The pictures that adorned the walls began to move. Everything seemed to came to life. The listeners looked at each other with a look of surprise and fear. As if everyone had agreed to one, down the stairs as fast they could trying to get away as soon as possible from there. Paquito Garcia which was very high jumped over the balcony and they said landed on his feet and ran down the street, occasionally looking back, for fear that others after him.
Pascual's mother a very old lady, shouted from the kitchen - the invention of hell out of my house! . The neighbor and friend who accompanied the inauguration of the radio, said all scared: this is an earthquake caused by this device. Thus, each resident in his innocence interpreted the phenomenon in its own way.
After the shock and after the village teacher said that radio had nothing to do with the earthquake, which by chance coincided with the release of the radio. All calmer went to their homes. That night they heard the Radio, but the next day, yes, admiring and pondering the virtues of the invention and as there was no damage and no one had left damaged by the earthquake, all made jokes concerning the episode lived. For the inhabitants of this town as well as other great virtues, had a great sense of humor.
is a real story.
