Three men, an American, Japanese and Irishman were sitting naked in the sauna.
Suddenly, there was a beeping sound. The american pressed his forearm and the beep stopped. 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 fellow lifted his palm to his ear. When he finished he explained, "That was my mobile phone. I have a microchip in my hand."
Paddy felt decideldy low-tech. So as not to be out-done, he decided he had to do something just as impressive. He stepped out of the sauna. He returned with a piece of toilet paper hanging from his arse. The others raised their eyebrows...
"Ah will you look at dat," says Paddy, "I'm getting a fax."
