High-Tech American, Japanese and Banta Singh
Three men - an American, a Japanese and Banta Singh were sitting in the
sauna. Suddenly there was a beeping sound. The American pressed his
forearm and the beep stoped. The others looked at him questioningly. "That
was my pager," he said. "I have a microchip under the skin of my arm."
A few minutes later a phone rang. The Japanese lifted his palm to his ear.
When he finished he explained, "That was my mobile phone. I have a
microchip in my hand."
Banta felt decidedly low-tech but not to be outdone, decided he had to do
something just as impressive. He steped out of the sauna and went to
toilet. He returns with a piece of 'Toilet paper' hanging from his butt.
The others raised their eyebrows and said, "Wow! What's that?" "I'm
getting a fax," he explains.
