You don't have internet at home? That's very unusual for this day and age, but no comment there.

Anyway, if you want you can download the source code at http://www.winehq.org. With the source code, you can extract and compile wine.

Here's a step by step so that you don't get confused, say you downloaded the source code 'wine-1.0.tar.bz2' to /home/myname/Downloads. Then the steps are:
- tar -xjvf ~/Downloads/wine-1.0.tar.bz2
- cd wine-1.0
- ./configure
- make depend && make
- make install

Give it a try!
