Three men, one German, one Japanese and a Russian were sitting naked in a sauna. Suddenly there was a loud beeping sound. The German 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 fellow lifted his palm to his ear. When he finished he explained, "That was my mobile phone. I have a microchip in my hand." |

The Russian felt decidedly low tech, but not to be outdone he decided he had to do something just as impressive. He stepped out of the sauna and went to the bathroom. He returned with a piece of toilet paper hanging from his behind. The others raised their eyebrows and stared at him. The Russian finally said "Well, will you look at that, I'm getting a fax." |
decidedly – zdecydowanie, wyraźnie low tech – niezaawansowany technologicznie, przestarzały not to be outdone – żeby nie być gorszy impressive – imponujący step out of – wyjść z piece – kawałek from his behind – z tyłu raise one's eyebrows – podnieść brwi ze zdziwienia stare – gapić się, wpatrywać się |
