Once again I am wired.

Two weeks without Internet was a very strange thing. City-Tom needs his Internet. I need to check my email and read my news. I need to check my friends’ blogs. I need to pay my bills and all that stuff.

Outdoors-Tom has no such needs.

City-Tom checks the weather on the Internet in the morning. When he gets home, news websites are read. And before going to sleep, City-Tom relaxes in bed with the wireless laptop.

Outdoors-Tom mocks City-Tom.

O-T sleeps under the stars on the cold, hard ground next to the fire. O-T wakes up to the sound of the wind blowing through the treetops.

O-T takes cold baths in the river. Shaving is optional.

O-T flyfishes all day and brings fresh trout back to the campsite for dinner. O-T’s legs ache from all the excercise.

C-T and O-T fight. Who will win?
