It's some years back, and this pilot fish is working on a computerization project at a bank branch in a town that's out in the sticks when a local woman asks him for help."She wanted me to visit her at her home," fish says.
"I agreed, and as promised arrived at her home one Saturday morning."She told me she had new PCs that she wanted help finding a buyer for.
OK, I said, show me the computers and I'll see what I can do."She leads fish to her dining table and points to a box in the middle of it.
"Here's one of them," she says.
"There are five in total like this one -- all of them brand new!"Just by the look of the still-sealed box, fish can tell it's been in storage for some time.
When did you get these computers he asks.
