Three women -- one German, one Japanese, and a Redneck were sitting
naked in a sauna. Suddenly there was a beeping sound. The German
pressed her forearm and the beep stopped. The others looked at her
questioningly. "That was my pager," she said. "I have a microchip under
the skin of my arm."

A few minutes later, a phone rang. The Japanese woman lifted her palm
to her ear. When she finished, she explained, "that was my mobile
phone. I have a microchip in my hand."

The Redneck woman felt decidedly low tech. Not to be outdone, she
decided she had to do something just as impressive. She stepped out of
the sauna and went to the bathroom. She returned with a piece of toilet
paper hanging from her behind. The others raised their eyebrows and
stared at her. The Redneck woman finally said, "Well, will you look at
that. I'm getting a fax."
