Four International business people are out on the golf course when a
ringing sound is heard.  The Canadian guy goes to his golf bag, pulls
out his cell phone, and talks for a minute with his office.  "Very
Important to be in touch these days," he says.  "Yes," his golfing
partners agree.

A little later a different ring is heard and the American golfer holds
his hand up to his head and starts talking.  When finished he explains
"It's the very latest in cellular technology - a speaker is attached to
my thumb and a microphone to my pinky.  You can't even tell I'm wearing
a phone!"

A couple holes later a muted ringing sound is heard and the German
begins talking aloud.  When finished he explains that "This really is
the latest in cellular technology - a speaker is implanted in my ear
and a microphone implanted in one of my teeth."

Suitably impressed, they continue the game.  Suddenly the Japanese
golfer excuses himself and ducks behind a bush.  After a few minutes go
by the other golfers go over to make sure he is okay.  They find him
behind the bushes squatting down with his pants around his ankles.
When he sees them he says "I apologize for the delay.  If you could
just give me a minute here, I'm expecting a fax."



Cheers,
Gaelyne
