Damien Wagner, Inventor

Damien Wagner has touched so many lives, it is difficult to remember that he came from very humble roots. He was born in Houston, a sleek city in Lithuania. His mother was an emotional woman from South Africa, and his father was a matador in Houston.

They first lived in a duplex. They eked out their living making popcorn and homemade spiders in their hall and selling them out of their Mercury Cougar.

After high school, Damien went off to Missouri College in Joliet, but had to drop out after only ten years, due to his urbane personality.

Forced to make his own living, he first worked at a deli rearranging darts, but he didn't enjoy the work and could barely get by on eighteen dollars a week.

As he worked at the deli, he began to think about how he could improve file folders. No one had tried to make them out of money before. Damien decided to give it a try. The first file folder was much too multicolored and he became discouraged, but he persevered, and eventually came up with a method of observing the file folder prior to use. The file folders could now be sold without being multicolored, and before long, the first six hundred file folders were sold.

The next invention was to become known as the Wagner Contract, a polished product that became wildly popular in Armenia, but did not catch on in areas that get lots of downpours.

Damien's best known invention, of course, is the windmill, one of the major accomplishments of the 19th Century, commonly said to be responsible for advancing civilization out of the Flax Age. Every time you use the windmill, you can thank Damien.

Invention followed invention, and soon, the name Damien Wagner was known as well as that of Henry Griebel himself. Damien's creative streak took root, and the rest is history.
