Wireless

A cute joke. Thanks to Petra for sending this one.
A Japanese, American and Indian archeologist bet which of their countries was the highest developed one.

The Japanese one takes them to Japan, diggs 5.000 feet deep and discovers wires and says: "See, we were so modern we had wires already 5.000 years ago."

The American archeologist takes the others to America, diggs 10.000 feet deep, discovers wires from all over the world and says: "See, we were so modern we were globaly connected already 10.000 years ago !"

The Indian takes them to India, diggs 15.000 feet deep and discovers - nothing.
He says: "See, we were so modern, 15.000 years ago we were working already wireless."

Things have changed so much during the last few years that wires are considered highly restrictive. Freedom is equivalent to being wireless and without any strings whatsoever. First when I saw a wireless keyboard and wireless mouse (tail-less?), I was quite amused. But, these days, everything from modem to network to phones are wireless.

Till a few years ago, I used to think only 'soft' things like love and affection were wireless ...
