Technology Tools

One day the farmer was visiting the nearby town and overheard one of the denizens talking about an ox from another town over who pulled fifty carts. The man said he was willing to bet no ox could pull more than that.  This statement caught the farmer’s attention. He walked up to the man and exclaimed that his ox could pull twice the number of carts this other ox pulled. The man looked at him and laughed. He then looked to his friend and joked about the farmer being delusional. He turned back to the farmer and tried to shoo him away. The farmer declared that his ox could indeed pull one hundred wagons and that he would bet ...
