A guy walks into a bar and sits down. After a few
minutes, he starts
dialing numbers...like a telephone...but on the
back of his hand. He
then flips his hand over, and starts talking into
the palm of his hand.
The bartender walks over and tells him this is
a very tough neighborhood
and he doesn't need any trouble from weirdo's here.
The guy says, "You don't understand. I'm very hi-tech.
I had a phone
installed in my hand because I was tired of carrying
the cellular." The
bartender says "Prove it!", so the guy dials up
a number and hands his
hand to the bartender. The bartender talks
into the hand and carries on
a brief conversation. "That's incredible",
says the bartender, "I would
never have believed it!"
"Yeah", said the guy, "I can keep in touch with
my broker, my wife, you
name it. By the way, where is the men's room?"
The bartender directs
him to the men's room. The guy goes in, and
5, 10, 20 minutes go by,
and he doesn't return.
Fearing the worst, given the violence in the neighborhood,
the bartender
goes into the men's room. The guy is spread-eagle
against the wall.
His pants are pulled down and he has a roll of
toilet paper shoved up
his butt.
"Oh my god!" said the bartender. "Did the locals
rob you? Are you
hurt?"
The guy casually turns around, and says: "No, I'm
OK. I'm just waiting
for a fax."
