He found someone with some capital who was willing to finance him, and soon he had a booming buisness going. By the time he passed it on to his son, he was making a good bit of money. However, when his grandson grew up, he wanted to change things. He thought that wigits were old fashoned and out of date. He wanted to convert the factory to make somthing new and modern, such as digital watches. But he never got his way. He decided to wait untill his father died, because then he would have a free hand. In the meantime he wandered about the factory making plans about how he would change it. One day, though, he fell into a wigitizing machine. As soon as someone found out about it, they stopped the machine instantly, but, alas, it was too late. The Dotch grandson was wigitized. However, one workman, when he found out what happened, said "Hey! We've made a wigital Dotch!!!" If you don't like my name, screw off. Signed -- -- C. J. Sampson alberta!jeff "Watch out, Mr. T.
