| Santa Banta Page 3
Three men - an American, a Japanese and Banta Singh 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 lifted his palm to his ear. When he finished he
explained, "That was my mobile phone. I have a microchip in my hand." Banta felt
decidedly low-tech but not to be outdone, decided he had to do something just as
impressive. He stepped out of the sauna and went to toilet. He returns with a
piece of ’Toilet paper’ hanging from his butt. The others raised their eyebrows
and said, "Wow! What’s that?" "I’m getting a Fax," he explains.
Santa and Banta go on a camping trip, set up their tent, and fall asleep.
Some hours later, Santa wakes his faithful friend Banta, "Banta, look up at the
sky and tell me what you see."
Banta replies, "I see millions of stars."
Santa, "What does that tell you?"
Banta ponders for a minute. "Astronomically speaking, it tells me that there
are millions of galaxies and potentially billions of planets. Astrologically, it
tells me that Saturn is in Leo. Time wise, it appears to be approximately a
quarter past three. Theologically, it’s evident the Lord is all-powerful and we
are small and insignificant. Meteorologically, it seems we will have a beautiful
day tomorrow.
What does it tell you?"
Santa is silent for a moment, and then speaks. .......
"Someone has stolen our tent".
Japan Fast; India Very Very Fast !!
There was a Japanese man who went to India for sightseeing. On the last day, he
hired Santa's cab and told Santa to drive to the Airport.
During the journey, a Honda drove past the taxi. Thereupon, the man leaned out
of the window excitedly and yelled,
"Honda, very fast! Made in Japan ! ! ! .
After a while, a Toyota sped past the taxi, again, the Japanese man leaned out
of the window and yelled,
"Toyota, very fast! Made in Japan!"
And then a Mitsubishi sped past the taxi. For the third time, the Japanese
leaned out of the window and yelled,
"Mitsubishi, very fast! Made in Japan!"
Santa was a little angry, but he kept quiet. And this went on for quite a number
of cars.
Finally, the taxi came to the airport. The fare was 800 rupees. !!!!
The Japanese exclaimed, "What??... so expensive!"
There upon, Santa yelled back,
"Meter, Made in India VERY VERY FAST !!!!!
