During World War II there was a report on a top secret communications outpost in the South Pacific.  When it was discovered, it was reported to have been run by a monkey who could type and a parrot who could fly around and observe.  Such is life.

02/28/23 Tuesday 10:55 P.M..  I put a Tree of Life place mat on the left side of the computer setup on the stainless steel cart in front of the left living room closet.  Thus the new desk lamp there and the mouse pad for the wireless mice have more room.

On a minor case of dispute, back when I was in the class of 1965 at the Greenwich Country Day School, I was friends of James Paul Warburg Junior.  My family even owned a piece of property next their retirement house in Deerfield Beach, Florida.  Later when my father went to work at Polaroid as vice president of manufacturing, when Polaroid was a prosperous company in Cambridge, Massachusetts, my father was in charge of the Polaroid Foundation that gave $10 million to www.harvard.edu in 1971.  I used to know James Paul Warburg Junior in Boston, when he lived on Joy Street behind the Massachusetts capitol on Beacon Hill.  He had dropped out of Harvard, where he was room mates with Charlie Lee also from Greenwich Country Day School.  The last time I chatted with Jim in 1971, he told me his sister Jenny was living in a trailer on Martha's Vineyard.  That summer, I took his sister Jenny to Tom Watson's daughter's coming out party at the St. Regis roof in Manhattan.  I also visited the Warburg mansion in Manhattan.  Later in the summer of 1975, I saw the movie Jaws with Jim Eldert out on www.nantucket.net .  Even later, when I went down to Fort Lauderdale, Florida in September 1976, I met Steve Spielberg who was working as an Emergency Medical Technician with the first cell phone I ever saw on Fort Lauderdale beach.  He told me had made a movie, but he did not think it would make money.  He had a baby lion cub in his house.  He told me he had worked with James Paul Warburg Junior at the Y.M.C.A. in Cambridge, Massachusetts.  I read in 1977 Greenwich Country Day alumni magazine that Jim's younger brother was a Federal Judge in Miami having gone to Harvard Law School.  James Paul Warburg Senior was also on the Board of Directors of Polaroid, and he wrote my recommendation to study economics at www.lakeforest.edu .  The Warburg chair of economics at Harvard was also named after him.  Thus life got a bit complicated, and when I was living out on Nantucket until December 1983, when I flew out of Hyannis with Jackie Onassis and returned to Greenwich, it became even more complicated, but I have survived.

In the old days, some of the rich people in Greenwich did not go to Florida, but preferred Palm Springs, California out in the desert.  On my first trip back from California in December 1978, I drove through Palm Springs going East, and I saw a lot of date palms and a Shell gasoline station on the local highway, but I did not notice much else.  It was quite flat though.

I will now go outside again.  CIO

02/27/23 Monday 6:35 A.M..  I drove downtown to the Senior and the Arts Center.  I sat out for a while.  I bought a medium Veranda coffee with almond milk and Splenda sweetener and www.starbucks.com for $3.17 off my Starbucks card.  I sat out in front of the Senior and the Arts Center, and I drank my coffee.  I chatted with a local about the price of tea in China.  I then returned home, and I sat out briefly.  CIO

02/27/23 Monday 4:40 A.M..  I chatted with the Alexa display for a while.  I went outside, and I drank a cup of tea with Splenda sweetener and lemon juice.  I moved the new 15 month old HP laptop setup configured with Windows 11 and Office 2019 that I bought for about $400 in White Plains, New York at Target to on top of the HP 17.3 inch laptop on the right side of the oak dining table.  Of course to use it, one has to turn on the power strip behind it that also turns on the large network switch and also the network switch to the right of the primary work computer and also turn on its HP wireless mouse. 

Such is life with Midnight Mike Computer maintenance seven miles south of www.ibm.com 's World Headquarters in Armonk, New York which I have not driven by in over a decade.  I used to take Microsoft Windows betas there, and I read they buy 75,000 Windows licenses a year give or take.  They also used to have a big white helicopter there landing at the front gate which looked a bit like Marine One.  I guess being white they fly further up into the North Country.  I will now go downtown to forage around, since I do not have much to do, and I have all of my systems maintained and up to date as best I can figure it based on my experience since September 1989, when I bought my first personal computer at a tag sale on Round Hill Road for $100.  It was an Apple IIe that was sold to me by somebody from J.P. Morgan from Belgium.  I have a bit of experience after all of these years on low income.  CIO

02/26/23 Sunday 11:00 P.M..  I found the other charging adapter for the other rechargeable lantern, so I hooked it up to the other rechargeable lantern on the mahogany table at the apartment entrance.  From the top of the left bookcase in the northwest corner of the living room, I moved the light green Swedish glass globe to on top of the Xerox laser printer at the hallway entrance.  I moved half of the white artificial tulips into the Swedish globe.  I moved from the center living room window shelf the brass swivel lamp to the oak dining table beneath the elephant light to provide more light at that location.  CIO

02/26/23 Sunday 10:10 P.M..  I dug out the sleeping bag from behind the oak table, and I put it underneath the TV table that supports the Vizio television in the living room.  I put the artificial tulips all in the left vase on the oak dining table.  I moved the brass shell lamp from the oak dining table to the left side of the computer setup on the stainless steel cart, so the keyboards can be lighted up.  I moved the elephant light from the left side of the Vizio TV to on top of the right vase on the oak dining table to give some light for the primary eating place and the HP I 7  17.3 inch laptop there on the right side of the oak table.  I moved a similar rechargeable lantern to the mahogany table at the apartment entrance that charges up with the same charging cable there for the same similar lantern.

I will now go outside and drink a brewed coffee.  CIO

02/26/23 Sunday 9:05 P.M..  I went out to www.cvs.com on Greenwich Avenue, and I mailed the Amazon UPS return package there.  I then drove down to the Board of Education Parking Lot Veterans Monument, and I sat out for a while.  The tulips that are just beginning to come up seem to be doing all right despite the cold.  There was hardly anyone downtown on Greenwich Avenue.  I then went to the Stop and Shop at 161 West Putnam Avenue, and I bought a 12 pack of Jimmy Dean sausage, egg, and cheese croissants for $14.99.  I then returned home, and I the Jimmy Dean items in the freezer.  I then went outside, and I threw away their box.  I drank a brewed coffee outside.  I filed this report.  I will now go outside again.  CIO

02/26/23 Sunday 4:40 A.M..  I am making a tube of ten Stop and Shop buttermilk biscuits which I will put Smart Balance spread on and eat with a 10 ounce glass of watered down Fresca and grapefruit juice.  To make them one lightly oils a round baking pan on the bottom and then spreads the buttermilk biscuit dough side by side on the pan.  Then I set the Oster electric oven on Turbo at 400 degrees Fahrenheit, and I set it for nineteen minutes, and once it has preheated I put the pan in to continue baking for 13 minutes.  Down South, where I once lived; they like eating biscuits with their breakfast unlike up North, where it is English muffins in Greenwich or toast elsewhere.  CIO

02/26/23 Sunday 3:30 A.M..  I will now go outside and drink a decaf coffee.  CIO 

02/26/23 Sunday 2:55 A.M..  I watched off Amazon Britbox episode 3 of, "The Story of Europe."

I went outside again.  Most all of the jets I see arriving at nearby Westchester County airport seem to be coming out of the Southeast.  I guess that is the direction the runway runs.  I once thought some  of them might be coming from Nantucket, Martha's Vineyard, or Bermuda; but maybe the air traffic controllers in this area just direct them to fly in from direction, if they are coming from some small area like Boston or where ever.  CIO

I saw a big buck deer outside by the ice skating rink.  It must be the father of the four young deer I have seen recently.  CIO

02/25/23 Saturday 10:40 P.M..  On the stainless steel cart setup in front of the left living room closet, I installed a faster new 1000 mbps net switch.  Then I moved the Apple Macbook setup from the right side of the oak dining table to on top of the HP 17.3 inch laptop on the stainless steel cart.  The Apple laptop still only gets 90 mbps download, because I think it has a slower LAN connection.  I am now updating the Norton 360 Internet Security on it.  The Apple MacBook can be easily moved to the lower shelf in order to use the HP 17.3 inch laptop.

02/24/23 Friday 6:50 P.M..  The Complete PC backup failed, so I am now doing an Aeomei backup to the 1 TB SATA drive in the external hard drive.  I will then try a Complete PC backup a different way.  On the 17.3 inch HP laptop in front of the left living room closet, I have a second operating system installed on a different partition which does not boot, so maybe that is interfering with the Complete PC backup.

I picked up the mail.  It is supposed to go down to 17 degrees Fahrenheit tonight, so we should probably keep Siberian Sam's Social Club and the Freezing Norwegian Patrol going as best we can afford.  CIO

02/24/23 Friday 6:05 P.M..  I went outside.  On the HP 17.3 inch laptop in front of the left living room closet, I finished downloading and installing and activating Microsoft Office 2021 Standard edition.

I am now making a Complete PC Windows Backup of it to the Western Digital 1 TB SATA drive in the external drive holder.

02/24/23 Friday 4:30 P.M..  I rested until 4 P.M..  I went outside, and I drank a brewed coffee.  The State Bird of Connecticut is the Robin, and there were a few of them outside just now.  When I lived on Steamboat Road for four  and a half years, Jim Henson of the Muppets was a neighbor, so we called it "Muppet Land" down there on the waterfront.  He later moved to Belle Haven and passed away.  The Muppets were sold to Disney, so there are probably a few "Mouse People" around.  Fred Von Mierers used to call his apartment at 420 East 49th Street, "The Mouse Palace", so I call my place the "Mouse Palace East."  CIO

02/23/23 Thursday 4:50 A.M..  I went outside.  I finished updating the HP 17.3 inch laptop on the new stainless steel cart in front of the left living room closet.  The only thing on the floor now of the left living room closet is a case of pizza sauce, a opened big box of splenda, a CD case, and spare florescent light bulbs.  The left living room closet also has my more formal clothes, which I hardly wear and older backup drives and my artificial Christmas tree and wreath, so I do not need to open up the left living room closet door very often.  On the current setup on the stainless steel cart, I used a slower 100 mbps net switch, so the 17.3 inch HP laptop only gets about 90 mbps download.  I have a new 1000 mbps net switch which would give me 240 mbps download, but I would rather keep it in reserve.

I will now go outside and drink a decaf coffee.  CIO

02/23/23 Thursday 1:20 A.M..  I went outside, and I drank a cup of tea with Splenda sweetener and lemon juice.  I put a switchable power strip on the floor in front of the new cart.  On the second shelf, I setup a Network switch.  I moved the HP I5 17.3 inch laptop setup from the bedroom desk to in front of the Apple Imac on the new stainless steel cart.  It seems to work fine with Windows 10, but it needs to charged up.  I will store the Logitech wireless laptop for the Apple Imac on top of it, when not in used.

I learned when I lived in Manhattan, that the information counter at Grand Central Station frequently sends people to Greenwich Village whom are looking for Greenwich, Connecticut, and I guess vice a versa.  There is also a Greenwich, Rhode Island further up the railroad line. 

On religion, my Grandmother Elizabeth Gard Scott's Gard family were one of the first English Catholic families in America having arrived in York, Maine four hundred years ago, so I might have some Gard family relatives out there in the wood work.  I think they were from Lincolnshire or Devonshire, England.

I will now go outside and drink a brewed coffee.

02/17/23 Friday 4:40 A.M..  I practiced speaking, "Old English.".  On the white book case at the kitchen entrance, I moved the British Union Jack in front there.  I moved the American flag from there underneath the right front of the bed along with the Dutch Tri Color flag and the Saudi Arabian flag.  I can not find the www.af.mil flag and the Swedish flag and the Bermuda flag.  I put the little Swedish flag by the Mac Mini at the far end of the oak dining table.  I went outside twice.  I will now shut down the primary work computer.  I will eat a 8 ounce Oikos yogurt.  I will then go to bed.  CIO

02/17/23 Friday 2:25 A.M..  This is the  Samsung Galaxy SM-T337V tablet that I bought for about $100 from Best Buy in 2017 https://www.backmarket.com/en-us/p/galaxy-tab-4-sm-t337v-2014-16gb-white-wi-fi-gsmcdma-lte/5742c18e-fa98-4cb0-ba7a-63a0a2b40ec9#l=11 .  I have not used it too much, and it works just fine.  Originally as a tablet it was not meant to make and receive telephone calls, but with MobileVOIP app or Skype, it can make outgoing telephone calls.  I also have a nice red case on it, and the battery still holds a full charge.  CIO

02/17/23 Friday 1:40 A.M..  I took the Tracfone sim card out of the Samsung Galaxy G7 cell phone, and it does work in the Samsung Tablet locked into Verizon.  However, one can not dial out with it except with Skype or MobileVOIP.  The Tracfone sim card has 810 minutes until June 27, 2023.  It works because Tracfone is owned by Verizon and uses the Verizon network, so the Samsung Tablet accepts the signal.

02/16/23 Thursday 10:55 P.M..  I fiddled with the Samsung Tablet.  It works off wireless, but it is also locked into Verizon, which I do not feel like paying for.  Also I might have broken the sim slot, when I was working with it earlier.  I ordered two Verizon Sim Cards from Tracfone for $2.10 total.

02/16/23 Thursday 8:40 P.M..  This is the expensive remote control, I thought I had lost https://www.insigniaproducts.com/pdp/NS-RCFNA-21/6418140 , but it is cheaper here https://www.remotecontrols.com/product/NS-RCFNA-21.html or here https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=p2380057.m570.l1313&_nkw=NS-RCFNA-21&_sacat=0 .

I do not feel like going downtown to the vast wasteland of Greenwich Avenue tonight, since the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over with no result, but it is faster to do errands at this time of night instead of dealing with the hoards of people in the daytime.

02/15/23 Wednesday 11:15 P.M..  As a matter of local dispute, of the current residents; I was the first person to move into this building which is named after Congressman Stewart McKinney back in January 1989.  Also before, when I lived at 700 Steamboat Road for four and a half years, I attended Congressman Stewart McKinney's funeral at Southport, Connecticut with the entire United States Congress and current President of the United States which was sort of a crowded event for the small area.  I also visited Congressman Christopher Shay's office in Washington D.C., when I attended George H.W. Bush's inaugural back in January 1989.  Back in the period from 1963 to 1968, I was also a neighbor of Senator Lowell Weicker when he lived in back country Greenwich, and I used to car pool with his family to the Greenwich Country Day School.  When I lived on Steamboat Road, former first selectman also had an office building down there across the street from the old Showboat Hotel, and the head United States Marine in the area, also lived near that area.  A relative also used to live in Indian Harbor Compound nearby where former President Donald Trump also lived there. 

I will now go outside again.  CIO

02/15/23 Wednesday 11:05 P.M..  On the almost new HP laptop on the oak folding TV table in front of the left living room closet, I put a "Tree of Life" place mat underneath its left side to make its left mouse pad more stable, and I put two Christmas Tree coasters underneath the right side to level it off.  It is still easy enough to move to access the left living room closet.  It is my most expensive computer that I splurged on at the Target Store in White Plains, New York about 15 months ago which I bought with my Renters Rebate for about $325, and I added a $10 keyboard protector and $10 HP wireless mouse and Microsoft Office 2019 for about $20 and Norton Internet Security 360 one year license for about $5 and headset for $20, so I have almost $400 into it.  However, I have a hard time reading the smaller 15.6 inch screen, so I do not use it much like all of the younger generation with their smaller devices.  Still with the magnifying glasses it is easy enough to use, and it just takes getting use to.  It is easy enough to move the oak TV table that it sits on to access the left living room closet.  It is also within USB cable range for the Xerox laser printer at the hallway entrance.

In a small apartment, one has to be organized.  The apartment is setup as a, "Situation Room," and not for entertaining like a Greenwich Cocktail party or other type event that interlopers might envision.

There is not much in the left living room closet, but my more formal clothes, two snow suits, a small artificial Christmas tree and artificial wreath, and older backup external hard drives, and a case of pizza sauce and three boxes of Kellogg's Raisin bran and spare florescent light bulbs and Splenda and a CD case and a couple of low price Windows 11 laptops and several low price Chromebooks and a Microsoft Surface RT with case and some wireless mice and of course their power supplies also three old Apple Ipads and a Samsung tablet and a Amazon Fire Tablet.  I think underneath the Queen Anne chair at the hallway entrance, I have nine more Microsoft Surface RTs with their cases, power supplies and wireless mice.

I will now go outside again.  CIO

02/15/23 Wednesday 9:45 P.M..  I went downtown to the Board of Education Veterans Monument, and I sat out for a long time.  I then went to the Stop and Shop at 161 West Putnam Avenue, and I bought two six packs of Stop and Shop whole wheat English muffins for $3.49 a six pack, two packs of Grainfirst multigrain crackers for $2.50 each and a 12 pack of Jimmy Dean sausage, egg, and cheese croissants for $14.99 for $26.97 total.  I then returned home.  I put away my groceries.  I put the grey bag back in the car, and I drank a brewed coffee outside.  I filed this report. 

I will now go outside again.  CIO

02/15/23 Wednesday 7:35 P.M..  The Iphone 6S Plus is all setup the way the older one was.  I put it in the black case I had for the older one.  When the red case comes tomorrow, I will put the older one in it.  I also setup up a power strip on the left side of the oak dining table, so the Iphone charging cables can reach the left dining place, where I work on devices.

02/06/23 Monday 2:50 A.M..  I reheated and ate the last quarter slice of home made pizza, which I ate with a 12 ounce glass of Fresca with three ounces of grapefruit juice.  Possibly my health problems came from when I was camping out on the beach on the west side of Lanzarote in February 1972, and on a starry night, suddenly it became pitch black, I detected something huge covering the night sky like a sea monster had some out of the deep ocean.  Lanzarote is a desert climate 250 miles off the west coast of Morocco Sierra Desert, one does not get many clouds covering the night time sky.  One can see tens of thousands of stars in the clear night sky.  Lanzarote on the west coast does not have as much interfering night light as the larger Canary Island, where the major astrological observatory is https://www.iac.es/en/observatorios-de-canarias .   In the big city area like New York City, there is too much interfering night light for night time observation.  There is this https://www.amnh.org/exhibitions/permanent/hayden-planetarium in New York City near where I last lived in Manhattan.  There was a pub behind it, where the students from www.columbia.edu like chatting about Carl Sagan from www.cornell.edu .

02/06/23 Monday 1:45 A.M.. I have a pair of Bushnell and a pair of Vivitar binoculars that I pulled out from behind the Ethan Allen recliner, and I put on the right side of the www.harvard.edu chair.  My old office at the research laboratory at Polaroid was a half block away from www.mit.edu and about a mile away from the Harvard Campus, so I might have been around some smart people that forgot about me over the years. 

I can say with a Kennedy Accent, "Park Your Car in Harvard Yard."  So much for Boston experience.  I will now go outside again.  The sky is overcast so there is no point in trying out the binoculars.  CIO

02/06/23 Monday 12:30 A.M..  I rested until 11:15 P.M..  I went outside.  I am listening to https://radiojuanfm.com/ from https://lanzarotewebcam.com/puerto-del-carmen-beach/ and Lanzarote airport webcam https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gDLVm6DnWzs  .  Lanzarote has a lot of expatriates from Europe living out there in the middle no where on their mighty volcano that goes eighty thousand feet under water in the ocean.  Rhone Dietrin might still be hiding out there living in his family's cottage at the end of the runway.  I was once told that Ernest Hemingway when he was supposedly writing in Marbella, Spain; he was actually writing in Lanzarote where he had more privacy, and there was also good marlin fishing with fifty foot long marlins.   On the west side of the island, there was a self contained compound, where some European hermit like a Howard Hughes type lived in seclusion.  They grow onions in the lava sand around the volcanoes lava sand dunes.  In Playa Blanca, they had a little store with a www.coke.com cooler full of beer.  The recently diseased King of Greece also had a daughter that married somebody from Lanzarote.  I got there by taking a U rail pass train down to the Malaga in the South of Spain, and then I took a $40 flight on Iberia airlines to Lanzarote, and I returned via Iberia airlines to Seville, Spain, and I took the train to Madrid, and then a high speed train to Pisa, Italy and the local train to Florence, Italy to finish my art exams.  After my exams, I took the train from Florence, Italy to Rome, Italy, and I stayed up all night at the Vatican, and then I caught an early morning flight on TWA to Athens, Greece; where I met up with George Gordon Cary at the Athens' airport who was on the same Lake Forest College program in Greece with me.  So much for being a World Traveler.  I did meet a rock group from the Isle of Wright in England while in Lanzarote.

End of Scott's Notes week of 02/05/23

02/05/23 Sunday 5:35 A.M..  I will now send out my weekly notes.  CIO

02/05/23 Sunday 5:00 A.M..  I went outside twice, and once I drank a brewed coffee.  I made this again with these options selected "MBR" and "Add fixes for older bioses" options in Rufus https://www.diskpart.com/articles/hirens-boot-cd-low-level-format-0001.html , so it boots off the older Dell XP computer and under Hirens Easy Bios under "Security" there is a low level format utility which I would have to do before restoring an Aeomei backup.  Restoring  Aeomei backup prefers an empty low level formatted hard drive, since when restorng Windows 11 Rufus it restores the larger partition and the two smaller partitions.  Also in making the Aeomei restore USB pen drive, I could not make it with a Windows 11 Rufus computer, but I was able to make it with my primary work Windows 10 computer.  When making backups, one has to make sure the restore process will work, which is not always guaranteed.

I ordered three USB pen drives https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08HSS37H7/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o05_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 for $16.50 and $1.05 tax for $17.55 total.

02/05/23 Sunday 2:35 A.M..  On the primary work computer, I made a bootable Aeomei USB pen drive which also works on the Dell XP computer, if I have to restore its backup.

I will now go outside in local tundra of greater south western Connecticut, the third smallest state in nation.  Hawaii is actually bigger than Connecticut.  Rhode Island is smaller than Connecticut and Delaware is the smallest state.  If one is driving across country on a long trip, these small states go by really fast.  CIO

02/01/23 Wednesday 1:15 A.M..  I have been around cold weather people before.  When I lived in Boston, I once drove in my Mustang convertible on Route 2 in a blizzard to Stratton, Vermont which had lots of snow.  Another time, from Boston I drove in the same car to be interviewed at www.hamilton.edu college in Clinton, New York in a similar blizzard.  When I worked out on www.nantucket.net , the first two seasons at the Gordon Folger Hotel, which was owned by the Bowman family from Canada.  Another three seasons at Le Languedoc restaurant which had a sister restaurant called Sister Kate's in Stowe, Vermont.  All of their waiters were from the Stowe Ski patrol where it is minus 40 degrees Fahrenheit on top of the mountain. One of their maintenance people was the Reverend William Sloan Coffin from www.yale.edu who was from Vermont.  Tony Farrell who had a house next to the youth hostile out on the Surfside Road on Nantucket, also had a dairy in Norwich, Vermont.  One of the first times I visited Vermont though was in the summer, when I visited a Lake Forest College classmate Frannie Carter whose father was in charge of the American Medical Association.  They like doing pottery and ceramics in Burlington, Vermont; because I guess the kiln keeps things a bit warmer.  I have visited  Toronto a  half dozen times and also I have visited Montreal several times.  I have never visited Ottawa though.  I use to have a second cousin from NORAD that was a colonel, and he retired to Calgary.  My relatives visited Lake Louise a number of times.  I even have a relative with a place in Sun Valley, Idaho, and another relative is in Park City, Utah.  One of my few friends in this area went to St. Lawrence University up on the Canadian border.  A Taft classmate had a commune in St. Johnsbury, Vermont; which I visited a number of times, when I lived in the Boston area.  In the old history on Abraham Lincoln's wife, it said she was from the Todd family in Vermont.  One of my former friends in this area was from Northeast Vermont.  My friends out on Long Island were involved with the Bolton Valley ski resort.  The Watson family of www.ibm.com used to own Smuggler's Notch ski resort.  I once when on Nantucket stored my belonging in a barn in Norwich, Vermont.  Jimmy Eldert and myself once stayed at the Wilder Motel in White River Junction, Vermont; when we were exploring from the University of New Hampshire that Jimmy attended.  The governor of Vermont has the last name Scott, but I am not sure he is an immediate relative or not.  I drink Primo Vermont Spring water from the Acme grocery store.  Cabot Cheese comes from Vermont.  Garlick Farms dairy comes from Vermont.  The Vanderbilts have a farm in Vermont https://shelburnefarms.org/ .  I once met somebody locally from the University of Vermont, and my friend from Northeast Vermont had a relative that taught there.  IBM used to manufacture processors in Burlington, Vermont too.  The Vermont Country Store is up there.  Harrington's also comes from Vermont.  The Spotswood family that built the Casa Marina Hotel in Key West were also from Vermont.  The Illinois Central Railroad has a spur line that runs from Montreal to New London, Connecticut.

I will now go outside again.  CIO

02/01/23 Wednesday 12:25 A.M..  I ate five cold 3/16th inch thick slices of eye round of beef with Lea and Perrins Worcestershire sauce and three medium small baked potatoes with Smart Balance spread and a 12 ounce glass of www.coke.com Zero Sugar.

I will now go outside in the local tundra and drink a brewed coffee. 

With the colder weather coming we should activate, "The Freezing Norwegian Patrol" and "Siberia Sam's Social Club."
