In a culture devoted to immediacy
and fingertip information the next logical step is to actually merge with
our electronic devices. Subdermal implants, Biochips designed to store
sensitive information, barcode medical tattoos, hard drives in the head,
e mail in the shoulder pads. Convenience. Pentium as fashion statement.
Electronic body enhancement right next to the nipple rings.
Sunlight
dissolves through curtain slits and the blanket static of morning radio.
She
wakes feeling groggy as though her EgoMaxim BrainPlant had exploded during
the nocturnal hours,
shooting
mini drive shrapnel through her cortex.
But

of
the alcohol she had last night and her weekly dose of Nympho-moan sex driver.
Eyes
glazing as she accesses the engines in her head.
Neural
paths greased by desire and nano-bots.
"Note:
Never buy that cheap Nymph driver again!"
