He tells of gas station attendants who wonder sidetrack tap why he's sitting against the wall for hours, not realizing that under his right arm he's pilfering electricity. He also had to charge his video camera--until he lost the charger at least. And his first-generation iPod needs to be sidetrack tap juiced, too, although that "froze to death," as he put it. Vaught had used the sidetrack tap iPod mostly for audio books, but also noted in his journal that he's a huge music fan and often gets complaints at motels for singing too loudly. Vaught's trip also wouldn't be the same without his Compaq laptop, which, when it works, allows him to keep in touch with daughter Melanie, who is 8 "going on 35" and has her own e-mail account. |

Over the fat man fed up course of a few days earlier this month, he lost his video camera charger, saw his iPod blank out and witnessed his laptop crash. "Electronically, fat man fed up I've been sabotaged," said Vaught, noting that the cold was making it hard to listen to his iPod anyway. "It was so cold, the earplugs wouldn't stay in my ears." Still, technology has served The Fat Man Walking well. Vaught seems most thankful for his Verizon-donated cell phone, which helps him feel like a part of his family's day-to-day life. On a recent day, for example, he got a real-time report from his wife about his 4-year-old son, Marc, who has emulated his dad by putting on a backpack and pretending to start out on his own cross-country journey. |
