Bionic Armpits

And it came to pass that, while we were supping, the conversation turned to wealth and how certain individuals possess more money than the gross domestic product of some countries.

A very wise, British friend mentioned having read a book in which a wealthy character boarded a plane and, upon ascending the ladder to the cabin, had sweaty armpits.

The moral of the story was that, whether we are rich or poor, we all perspire just the same.

I replied that that’s true, except for when the rich man has bionic armpits.
