From Different Eras


Shenanigans

Michael and Alex were both born in the 20th century, but you could argue that they are some what both misplaced in time. Michael uses computers, but likes to work with paper, whereas Alex prefers to manipulate electrons using buttons and peripherals, but is capable of using paper. Neither would dream of using a typewriter, the staple of the last century.

This divide is a little clearer when you examine their recent interactions with the fairer sex; when I was young, one might call a girl on the phone. Instead, Michael actually goes to the door of the young lady that he sort of, kind of has his an interest in, such as a gentleman of the 19th century would. Alex, on the other hand, is fully a denizen of the 21st; a young lady, whom he does not like and certainly not in that way, setup an appointment to meet Alex in a pizza parlor on Club Penguin a social networking website for the youth.
