Statistics & Logistics Division Poll #19 Technology alert!

     Hello everyone, my name is Stan and I’m kinda new here at the Statistics & Logistics division, located on the second level of the HARRUMPH bunker.  I joined HARRUMPH  a few weeks ago because it seems I’m always getting the short end of the stick and, quite frankly, I’m ready for some payback.  Ever since I was a little kid, I’ve always had to play second fiddle; at home, at school, even in the Skull & Bones society.
     You see, my older brother is Satan & boy what a drama queen!  Always looking for attention.  He always got new jeans… I had to wear hand-me-downs.  He got a new car for his sixteenth birthday… I got a computer.  Even in Skull & Bones, he had a real skull… I had to buy a plastic one at Walmart.  Heck, mom & dad even gave him an extra “a” in his name.  He always got the better end of the deal.  I mean, check it out: after we moved out, he becomes the “Prince of Darkness.”  I ended up opening an insurance business in Battle Creek.  No, not even “that” Battle Creek…  my office is in Battle Creek, Iowa, population 800, *sigh.*  Yeah, I know… Loser-ville.  As our town website says: “You can gas up your car or get it repaired; you can have your hair done or open an account at the bank; you can visit the library or even buy a log home.”  Are you kidding me?
     So anyway, it was time for a change and I’m hoping working customer service here in the S & L division is just a start.  I’ve already qualified on the miniature grenade range and I’ve had a couple of close encounters with the gatling gun Roomba one level down.  Who knows, maybe one day I’ll take that second “a” away from my brother & send him to Battle Creek!
