“Eight, please,” I said politely to the old man standing next to the control panel as I entered the elevator. He pushed the top button, instead. Suddenly, I was scrunched flat to my knees from an immense upward acceleration.

Dave and his lovely wife, Kate, and their two hungry rescue cats live in the Pennsylvania countryside, where he enjoys working on his novel about distant planets and flying saucers.
Perfect little punch at the end. Thanks
Thanks, Jennifer! Much appreciated and glad you enjoyed it!
Dave, nice little teaser of your book. I’ll be looking forward to the release.
Chris, thanks! Book actually is on different subject…but hope to finish it one of these days!
