TV set with little people inside

When I was a boy in the age of six my parents have bought black and white TV set with the vacuum tubes of the RR-41 Nish brand. It was completely unclear to me where the hell this little people came from they have shown themselves just behind the glass of this cube shaped wooden box, so I used to check it watching secretly from behind through the perforated back side of the black wooden box of the new TV set, where I saw that some small yellow coloured lights have shined. The father of mine has explained to me that it is not allowed to put the nose behind the TV set because of the life danger through the high voltage presence. I've not understood what does it mean the high voltage presence but everything else was clear so I've respected this what the father of mine has been recommended to me. However, first time when it occurred that one vacuum tube burned out and our neighbour uncle Mile came to visit us to replace it, as far as he has opened the back cover of the TV set I couldn't hold myself back caused by enormously huge curiosity which appeared suddenly so I've immediately put my nose inside of the TV box from behind to find out where the hell the little people have been hided themselves inside. I've wondered when I saw the whole city within the TV set and the vacuum tubes seemed me to be like a high buildings of the urban cities where the little people used to live, who somehow out figured how to represent themselves much bigger then they were in reality.

 

After short time I was aware that something is moving down there between the vacuum tubes within the TV set. It was one small yellow bug without any wings, which tuck a walk through the strange city within the TV set, opened from behind. When I said to uncle Mile what I've just discovered inside the TV set he has confirmed to me that it is as usual that this kind of insects use to live inside of the TV sets. It was not very clear to me which kind of food the bugs used to eat while TV set was situated in the living room so far away from any brad crunches, water and any others rests of the food which were very important as the supplies to every other normal bug which wants to survive.

 

During the time I've met this strange bugs many times. They loved to live around the electric motors, for instance under the fridge or some similar devices but there it was more humidly then inside the TV sets and furthermore they were close to the different food rests. The cousins of this bugs they use to live inside the high voltage cities of the TV sets have seemed to be the real enigma to me. It was obviously that they have never needed neither the food nor the water since they somehow have out figured how to feed themselves directly reusing the high voltage electrical or magnetic field. It was just like some kind of magic for me.
