Why did the electrician always know what was happening in the news?
He stayed plugged into current events.

Did You Know?
"Current events" means recent news, but "current" also refers to the flow of electricity that electricians work with daily! The double meaning creates the perfect spark of wordplay. Interestingly, the term "electrician" wasn't coined until the 1750s when Benjamin Franklin began his famous experiments with electricity. Before that, people who worked with electrical phenomena were simply called "natural philosophers" or "experimenters."
