A modern timepiece

Post by Filonian »

An Australian is sitting at a bar in a smart part of New York city. He looks at his watch several times in the space of a few minutes.

The woman sitting nearby notices this and asks, "Is your date running late?"

"No," he replies, "I have this brand new, state-of-the-art watch. I was just testing it."

The woman is intrigued and asks,"A state-of-the-art watch, indeed? What's so special about it?"

The Aussie explains, "It uses alpha waves to talk to me telepathically."

Rather sceptical, the woman raises an eyebrow and says, "Oh really? So what's it telling you now?"

"Well, for a start it says you're not wearing any panties."

The woman giggles and replies, "Well it must be broken because I am wearing panties!''

The Aussie smiles, taps his watch, and says, "Bloody thing's running about an hour fast. Can I buy you a drink?"

I once saw an advert for an all-singing all-dancing watch, and one of the so called selling points was that it was accurate to within 3 seconds over 1,000 years.

So how do they know that, and why would anybody buy it on that score?

Joe, I was thinking about my wife but best to wait until she comes in from one of her 10 mile runs - that way I might evade the slap (just); but then again maybe not!

Chris
