"Wow!", Shiv exclaimed, "Nice roller!"
"Thanks", said Roger, "I like red. It makes it so much more sporty, and I know I know, its just a mercedes, but this roller brand has a sentimental value for me. My dad used to own one"
"Oh that's great" said Shiv, as they sat in the vehicle.
The roller passed the beam scanner and deducted the parking fee, as they exited the airbase
They moved from the slow magnetic lane to the high speed magnetic lane, when Shiv asked "Some kinda road work going on over there?"
"Ya", said Roger, "they r constructing a flyover pass, it takes like forever, they have been at it for two weeks already.. i mean.. come on!"
Rewind two days..
".. and i just wanted to order a new disc player and she said that it will be shipped to me in a day! I was shocked.. I mean what's with these people? Don't they understand the importance of time?" said Roger to his team mate George
"Well.. don't they use the beamer to just beam stuff to you?" asked George.
"Oh no.. this is an old fashioned joint.. they don't use modern technology"
"I think they r serving the right customer then eh Rogey boy.. U don't like to use the best of the latest technology either right? I mean.. that mercedes.. u call that a roller? Its more like a car.. ", said George as he laughed.
"Very funny.. I told u abt..", said Roger when he was interrupted by George saying ".. sentimental value.. your dad had one.. ya ya ya"
"Ya anyway, I think I'll pick one up on the way back home"
"You still haven't adjusted to the modern software, have you? U r at work, at home! U r on simulation software remember? Von Dutch's concept? I am a hologram.. blah blah blah?"
"oh man!" said Roger
"What happened?"
"I got to pick some guy up called Shiv from the airbase, in two days. He's visiting", said Roger,
"What's the status on the humans being beamed across issue anyway? It started over three days ago.. ?"
"Ya", said George, "It's something about unlicensed beaming increasing terror across the world, and it seems to be taking away peoples broadband connection is some strange way. Its a serious issue"
Rewind over three days ago..
The International Court of Technological Justice, Interlocken
"Ladies and gentlemen, I present the issue of human beaming across wide areas. What r the problems we face?" asked the chairman
"They just try to take over our beaming market, we use patented cross-grid dissolution and re-integration technology, but it seems like they want their hand in every pie", says the Soni spokesperson, obviously pointing to the Macrosoft representative
Seeing most of the fingers being pointed at Macrosoft (the first case of people physically pointing fingers in over two centuries) the chairman comes to his rescue by saying, "Let's not point fingers at people, lets give him a chance to explain.."
So the Macrosoft representative starts off "So I was having this drink with the guys a few days ago.."
Rewind a few days ago..
In a pub
"Ya I got this meeting with these techno people in a couple of days.. What a waste of a life! Why don't they just join Macrosoft?! May be v should just buy them"
"Ya", says another, "Why here enters the head of that company Pewlett-Hackard"
"Hey Karan! Would you like a double vodka?"
Vodka goes down.
".. he looks passed out.."
"oh looks like he's dreaming.. its that rapid eye movement thing.. can u c that?"
"oh yeah.. i wonder what he's dreaming though.."
End of story.
