Note:<888> 04/27/06  Thursday 5:10 A.M.:   I opened a 14.75 ounce can of Bumble Bee Alaska pink salmon, and I left the opened lid on it, and I drained it a few times underneath cold water.    I then put the canned salmon on a dinner plate, and I picked through it all with my fingers removing any bones.   I put the remaining cleaned salmon in the Cuisine Art along with a large cracked egg and two tablespoons of Progresso bread crumbs, a half teaspoon of Italian seasoning, and a half teaspoon of dried parsley.   I ran it a few cycles stirring it in between cycles to scrape the unmixed portions off the sides of the Cuisine Art.   I then took the mixer holder off the machine, and I removed the blade.   I divided the salmon mixture into halves, and I shaped two one inch thick paddies out them.  I put one of the paddies in a Rubbermaid container in the refrigerator.  I also made up a batch of Michael Louis Scott's Microwave Oven Rice Recipe .   In a plastic microwave proof container with lid, I also put an inch of water and about 1.5 cups of baby carrots and broccoli crowns.   After the rice was done in the microwave oven, it has to sit at least five minutes, so I took it out of the microwave oven, and I ran the vegetables on three vegetable cycles in the General Electric microwave oven.   While doing that I put 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a 8 inch diameter stick proof frying pan on a small burner on medium high electric heat.  Once the fat began to bubble, I cooked the salmon paddy for four minutes on each side.   Once all of the items were cooked about the same time, I put half the rice in Rubbermaid container with lid in the refrigerator.    I put the other half on a warm dinner plate with a couple of teaspoons of La Choy low sodium soy sauce.   I put the cooked salmon paddy on the dinner plate, and I put the drained cooked vegetables in a large bowl with a couple of teaspoons of olive oil on them.   I ate it all with a glass of iced tea.   I will now shower, and I will clean up.  I had to restart the Vista beta 2 build 5365 download, but it is going faster at about .5 mbps download, so it has about 1 hour to go.  Of course during the Hurricane season down south http://mikelouisscott.com/weather.htm , one might want to have their ears clogged up, if one does not like the sound of a train rushing by for a few hours or more.   CIO

Note:<888> 04/26/06  Wednesday 7:45 A.M.:   I watched a little bit of morning television.   As usual there is not much going on in America, except the status quo whatever that is.    I suppose since Fox News said the government gets the biggest share of gasoline prices, it is another way of taxing the general population.    Alas, since I am limited on my activities based on my disposable income, I can not respond to nothing happening on Greenwich Avenue.    I suppose the town could save money by getting rid of the town government and other municipal services, and leave everyone to fend for themselves.    Alas, from what I can tell from the media, the local Hartford, Connecticut state government is not very much in tune with this area either.     I suppose since Fairfield County pays so many taxes and gets so little in return, we could become a separate economic entity, and maybe we would do better.    I will now shut down the computer, and I will go to bed sooner.    Maybe,  I will be up a little bit earlier today.    CIO

Note:<888> 04/26/06  Wednesday 1:25 A.M.:  Now if you do not think this cat http://mikelouisscott.com/mtlion.jpg can not sneak up on you while you are out bird watching at this hour of the morning, it really depends on whether they are hungry or not, and this time of year when food is scarce, they tend to be hungry, and like the people they to tend to migrate south to north and back with the seasons.   That is probably why some people chose to live on more remote islands despite the sharks and the gators.   CIO 

Note:<888> 04/26/06  Wednesday 1:10 A.M.:  As I recall when I worked for Daniel Construction now part of www.fluor.com  in Greenville, South Carolina for the first six months of 1976, I lived next to the C.B.S. news station which also was one of the first cablevision stations coming out of Atlanta, Georgia, when Ted Turner was still selling highway advertising road signs, and at the time everyday, I drove to work, I drove by the Greenville, South Carolina sheriffs office with about two hundred sheriff's cars, so more than likely somebody in that area knew something about the Irish travelers.   We only got three television stations back then, so like today, we were not use to watching much television, since all it does is try to sell soap.  Proctor and Gamble owns most of the soap operas, and as I recall Helen Kress Williams owned a lot of Proctor and Gamble www.pg.com .   If the media type people keep bothering me too much, I might quit paying the extra $53 a month, I have to pay for Digital Cable television, which I do not watch too much.   If everyone in America quits paying for the television media, they will end up going out of business, and soap might be cheaper.    CIO

Note:<888> 04/26/06  Wednesday 12:50 A.M.:   Back in the good old days, when President Bush was first president, we use to have Dorothy Bush's caddy from Hobe Sound, Florida sleeping outside around Greenwich, Connecticut at night, and since he always carried a 100 pound duffle bag, he was a fairly powerful man, but we have not seen him in a couple of years, so he is probably still caddying on the P.G.A. golf tour.    Of course, there are always kids moving around this area at night, since they tend to work jobs in the evening, and then spend a little down time out and about after midnight.   We have some local colleges such at Suny Purchase, which also have a few youngster prowling around this area to see what is happening, and I suppose occasionally some of the cadets from West Point venture over here, because of all of the golf courses we have in this town.   It is the nature of the United States Army that they tend to walk a lot, so anywhere there are a lot of golf courses, more than likely there is somebody from the United States Army in the vicinity.   However, if I happen to be in the United States Army, they are a communist organization, because I do not recall having been paid since 1968, thus they would owe me a lot of money.  Of course Lake Forest College besides being just north of Fort Sheridan, which at my time was in charge of all of the recruiting for the United States Army, and a fairly secure location with golf course and 500 pound plus master sergeants, it was also south of Great Lakes Navy Medical Center with about 50,000 U.S. Navy personnel.    Thus as a local observer in the nearby college, I worked in the bank two years, and I also drove a taxi for two years while in college.   To drive a taxi in Lake Forest, Illinois, one has to be fingerprinted, and the fingerprints are put on file with the FBI, so my fingerprints have been on file with the FBI, since about 1970.   Of course when I was born, they also did my baby foot prints, so I am a fairly well documented individual.    Speaking of found property on Greenwich Avenue, this past morning, I found a nickel, but one usually does not see much spare change or bills around Greenwich Avenue because of all of the pedestrian traffic.  I took three large eggs, and I broke them in a mixing bowl, and I added a couple of tablespoons of grated parmesan cheese and a couple of tablespoons of milk and a couple of teaspoons of olive oil and few dashes of Italian seasoning, and I whisked it all together.    I put three paper towels on a microwave proof dinner plate and then seven strips of regular bacon and two more paper towels and the plastic microwave plate cover, and I put it in the microwave, and I set the timer for four minutes.   I put two pieces of bread in the toaster.   I then took a 10 inch stick proof frying pan, and I added few tablespoons of olive oil, and I turned on the electric burner to medium high, once the oil began to get hot, I added the egg mixture and lower the electric burner heat to medium, and I started the bacon in the microwave oven, and I started the toast.  Once the eggs were about half cooked, I used a spatula, and I slid the cooked part off the bottom of the pan to let the liquid part cook some more.   About the time the bacon was done, the eggs and toast were done.   I mixed the eggs a little bit towards the end to scramble them medium soft.   I put the hot skillet briefly on a dinner plate to warm it, and then I put the eggs on the plate along with the bacon and toast.   I put olive oil on the toast, and I cut the two pieces in half.   I ate it all with a glass of iced tea.    I suppose since I have a full belly, I could shut down the primary computer, and I could shower and clean up, and I go out on the usual Mountain Lion patrol.   I became aware of Mountain Lions, when I use to camp out by Ronald Reagan's ranch in the hills above Santa Barbara, California, and when I use to camp out in Florida, I use to see pretty much the same cat called a Florida Panther, and I had the experience of some sort of cat jumping on the roof of my Volvo about 7 years ago out by the reservoir by Lowell Weicker's former house before he moved to the Virgin Islands never to be seen again.    However, I do see his license plates around town, but I never recognize many members of his family, since they tend not to be as tall as he is.  Among the local political groups, they seem to think he is still in charge in this area, but the last I knew he was living quietly in retirement, but I think he still has a legal practice in this area, since by profession he is a lawyer.  However, I actually do have work to do at home, so I doubt if I will be going out.    I am so far behind in my computer and internet activity with all of the system's maintenance that I have been having to do recently, I am having a hard time remembering some of my normal internet activities, which I use to keep busy with all of the time.   Most of the time it was reading various technology news articles, and my shortlist was posted at Scott's Daily Work List Links .   Thus I do not really need to taking an exercise walk, when I have plenty of work to do at home.   From what I can tell that group of con artists known as the Irish Travelers from Murphyville, South Carolina are probably working this area again like they seem to do every year at this time, and it seems they might have become more high tech and be pursuing some sort of internet fraud.  CIO

Note:<888> 04/24/06  Monday 7:40 A.M.:  I went through my email, which on Sundays is not much.   I went outside, and I checked the building parking lot area.    It seems to be another cool damp spring morning.   You have to realize, it is not even May yet.   The last time I was down in Tobago for a few weeks back in 1971,  I returned with my family flying into J.F.K. airport in Manhattan during the first week of May 1971, and there was six inches of snow on the ground, so the weather can play tricks on you this time of year.  The Peru Ubinas Volcano web sites are Principal Peru Ubinas Volcano web site , IGP_Principal Peru Geophysics , Volcan Ubinas - Peakware World Mountain Encyclcopedia , Ubinas, Peru .  I went to Lake Forest College www.lfc.edu with Brian Porto whom was from Peru, so maybe he would know some more.    I recall when I threw the Kentucky Derby Party on the Farm back in 1971, Brian did not show up, and nobody won the Derby bet that year, since a horse named Canonaro from Peru won that year.    It was suppose to be a strong runner, since in the heights of Peru, the air is thinner.   Thus the Derby Party broke even, it did not show a profit at $5 a head with all that you can drink in terms of beer, wine, and good quality alcohol and mixers.   I recall buying up all the mint in the town of Lake Forest at the gourmet food store, and the rest of the town was quite upset, I think it cost me about $40 for a case size tray of mint.   One the visitors showed me something interesting about the manure out by the barn during the derby party, it had about a quarter of an acre of mint growing in it, so it was one of those cases of God's Little Acre of looking for what is in one's back yard.  Alas, the Farm http://mikelouisscott.com/photo/mike-scott-the-farm-illinois-1970.jpg is no longer there, but at 12 cents a gallon for heating oil back then, it was quite warm and comfortable on those cold nights in Illinois.  One of the room mates from Minnesota use to keep his room at about 90 degrees Fahrenheit, while one roommate from Connecticut moved out after a few months, because there was no heat on the sun porch, where he was trying to sleep at a lesser cost.    That is his green MG in the picture, and I guess since his name was David Field from Fairfield, Connecticut, he is probably fairly wealthy old guard Yankee today.  One of the roommates was the step son of Robert Wagner, the former mayor of Manhattan, and the son Bennett Cerf a well know publisher with the name Barry Cerf.   Another roommate was Tim McMurray a local genius from Lake Forest, whom died in a fire in Miami, Florida when working as a social worker, and one of his clients killed him.   Another roommate was from Detroit named Doug Turner, whom joined the Navy.    The roommate from Minnesota was Skip Benson, and his family were wealthy in the Commodities Business.   Of course, I frequently missed some of my classes, because I was busy running the Farm, and also working local jobs around Lake Forest, Illinois, but one tends to keep long hours, when one is younger.  CIO

End of Scott's Notes week of 04/22/06:

Note:<888> 04/22/06  Saturday 9:20 P.M.:   I took three large eggs, and I broke them in a mixing bowl, and I added a couple of tablespoons of grated parmesan cheese and a couple of tablespoons of milk and a couple of teaspoons of olive oil and few dashes of Italian seasoning, and I whisked it all together.    I put three paper towels on a microwave proof dinner plate and then six strips of regular bacon and two more paper towels and the plastic microwave plate cover, and I put it in the microwave, and I set the timer for four minutes.   I put two pieces of bread in the toaster.   I then took a 10 inch stick proof frying pan, and I added few tablespoons of olive oil, and I turned on the electric burner to medium high, once the oil began to get hot, I added the egg mixture and lower the electric burner heat to medium, and I started the bacon in the microwave oven, and I started the toast.  Once the eggs were about half cooked, I used a spatula, and I slid the cooked part off the bottom of the pan to let the liquid part cook some more.   About the time the bacon was done, the eggs and toast were done.   I mixed the eggs a little bit towards the end to scramble them medium soft.   I put the hot skillet briefly on a dinner plate to warm it, and then I put the eggs on the plate along with the bacon and toast.   I put olive oil on the toast, and I cut the two pieces in half.   I ate it all with a glass of iced tea.  I did my house cleaning and watering the plants.   I threw out the garbage and some old periodical literature.    I chatted with two friends.    This afternoon during housecleaning, I also took a three hour nap.   I made and ate Michael Louis Scott's Pork and Beans with franks .   For the hotdogs, I used a drained 2 ounce tin of Armour Vienna sausages that I cut into quarter inch thick slices and for the beans, I used a 16 ounce can of Bush's baked beans.  Today is Earthday Network , so I am not driving my car, and I am too tired to go out now anyway.  I also reinstalled Microsoft Windows Vista beta 2 build 5342 on a secondary partition on the primary computer.   I also picked up my mail.   Last Thursday, when I was at the Greenwich Hospital Thrift shop, one of the staff gave me the Census Edition of the Rand McNally Rand McNally - Maps, Driving Directions, Travel Store World Atlas.   Thus, although we are not going anywhere, we can study where we once might have been able to go.   I have been suggesting to friends that since the Germans have so much money, one could probably make money in Manhattan running a hotdog stand outside the German consulate.  I will now send out my weekly notes.  CIO   

Note:<888> 04/22/06  Saturday 6:35 A.M.:   I called up the British Embassy in Washington D.C. this past evening to wish Queen Elizabeth II Happy Birthday, and it was strange the person answering the telephone was from Iraq.   I just finished doing my laundry.   I took the electric blanket off the bed and the heavy winter comforter, and I put them in their plastic holders on the left side of the bedroom closet shelf.    I put the light summer weight medium blue blanket on the bed and the pink and green floral pattern quilt on the bed, so now it is set up for warmer weather.    I did two loads of laundry, and I put the clean clothes away.   From my personal half Dutch point of view, cleanliness is next to godliness, so since the computers are running fine, I am going to do my routine house cleaning this morning.    It does not use energy like driving the car, and since I spend more time in my apartment with the higher prices of fuel, it is important to keep a clean orderly apartment.   According to the Greenwich Post, premium unleaded gasoline is up to $3.269 a gallon.   The retired banker I saw going into Manhattan on the train on Thursday evening is from a well known oil family, so if he is taking the train, I think other people should think about using the train and saving energy.     I still have my older Schwinn bicycle here, but although it is older and it does work just fine, at this point I can not afford the parts to keep it running properly on a regular basis.    To use it at night one needs reflectors, and at the moment, there is still too much automobile traffic around here.   I also do not have spare tires or tubes.    However, I think I am in good enough shape to ride it after walking up and down Greenwich Avenue all of these years.   I actually enjoy walking a lot, so I might simply walk downtown later today after doing my house cleaning.   I run my apartment like I were living in my mother's home and not in some hippie crash pad.   CIO

Note:<888> 04/22/06  Saturday 3:30 A.M.:   I woke up at 9 P.M., and I chatted with a relative, a friend, and an associate.     I explained to them what I have been dealing with is some sort of "Cyberterrorism".   My friend in Manhattan told me a lot of their friends in Manhattan have been having computer problems.    Thus it is more widespread than me locally.   I ate breakfast of oatmeal with a sliced banana, two slices of toast with olive oil, orange juice with vitamins and supplements, and a cup of coffee with splenda and milk. I showered, and I cleaned up.   I went back to bed until 3 A.M.   I was able to get FTP to work between the two computers by changing the IP address for FTP, and it now works.     However, to get the web to work off my server, I now have to enable Advanced Configuraton DynamicDNS.    However, for the moment everything is working just fine.    I will do some of my regular computer routines, after I wash the breakfast dishes.     However, before I make my bed, I also have to do laundry.   In my world unlike hacker's worlds, house cleaning  and maintenance comes first before routine computer activities.   CIO     

Note:<888> 04/21/06  Friday 12:55 P.M.:   I do not pay attention to what goes on in this area.   For all I know they have some sort of security event going on, but from what I can tell, I heard briefly on MSNBC this morning, that a number of gasoline stations in the Northeast are Out of Gasoline.   I guess with the war effort going on and what ever modest level of propaganda, we are able to maintain in this modern world, it looks like you ain't going anywhere with your American Express card, except to maybe the sneaker store.   I tried restoring my backup on the server, and deleting the server partition and restoring the server partition information, but I still can not FTP between the primary and the server computers, so I have to transfer files manually.   Whatever, the case the new IP address that appeared on my server seems to be connected with the motherboard LAN.   I can change it back manually to the old IP address, which I have forgotten or another IP address, but for now I will not worry about it.    Basically, although it is only set up for transfering between the primary and the server computer, from what I can tell with the constant hacking skills that appear in IBM's back yards, anything could happen with these systems as the Fifth Columnists try to disrupt the area, before they hope to take over.   I will warn these simple minded individuals the Old Guard tends to come north around the End of May for events like graduation at West Point, and it is the nature of their military connections, they tend not to run out of fuel.    Since the two most frequent users of my web site tend to be out of Waterbury, Connecticut and Beverly Hills, California, maybe what we're dealing with is a couple of actors killing time.    Waterbury, Connecticut is where Timex watch company is, and brass companies.    However, I think Timex is a Norwegian Company.   Since the people are use to taking advantage of my hospitality at the expense of my time, I have had to advise people to simply ignore them, and to let them fend for themselves.   It does not seem they have any interest in computers, and the information they can provide, and that they are more interested in disrupting communications.    We have so many different types of communications anymore, I tend to ignore most of it.    I already have received another harassing telephone call from a person pretending to be a policeman.   I was advised by the local police they do not randomly call up residents.    I think since it is warmer in this area, we have that group of carnival type people coming out of the south trying to pull off their usual con games.    With modern criminal investigation methods, I think the government is now rounding up their families back where they really live and watching their traffic pattern at the moment.   I will now shut down the computer, and I will go to bed soon.    CIO   

Note:<888> 04/21/06  Friday 8:00 A.M.:  I chatted with the Casa Marina Key West Hotel Resorts & Florida Keys Beach Accommodations - Casa Marina Resort Key West with the Romanian supervisor named Christian, and I have chatted with him before.   I tried to access the situation to him, but he did not tell me anything.   I tried to explain this map, which makes a bit of sense in terms of the Florida situation.    Basically in 500 years the coast line of Florida has changed.    If much of the map is accurate, how could the coast line of Florida have changed so much.   One should think about it, before investing in Florida real estate.   Map of Magellan 1500

.   I will shut down the primary computer again, and I will go to bed.  CIO  

Note:<888> 04/21/06  Friday 4:25 A.M.:   Well, the local mafia messed up my computer server.    I know how to fix it, but I do not have time to do it this morning.   The web server works, but the FTP between the two servers does not work.    One employee at the Greenwich Hospital Thrift shop keeps asking me how to network a computer together, and I explained I never network my computers together, because I do not like enabling "File and  Print Sharing".   I just simply FTP between the primary work computer and the server.   Whatever, the Server was messed up, but I was able to fix that with a System Restore, so the web server works for now.   I will have to manually transfer the files between the primary computer, and the server.    If local political activists are involved in messing up my computer operations, more than likely they have bothered other people with more influence, which could make their short stays in this area even shorter.     I tend to take the long term approach.    I enjoyed the period away from computers in the 1970s, when www.ibm.com was left to live in Russia.  Stock brokers were lucky to make $20 a day as bus boys, and most anyone whom had assets to survive on learned the simple joys of gardening.   It always seems that when I go out to my Thursday appointment, somebody messes up my computer activity.   It seems they still gain access to my apartment and are avoiding the motion detection cameras stealthfully.   Whatever, the case it seems to me there is no real purpose, other than they are so ignorant, they are not aware of commonly available information available for reading to the general public in most large libraries.   This might imply they are first generation immigrants or illegal aliens.   Whatever, the case the net result of having my computer systems constantly tampered with, means that I can spend time on other equally important activities.   Thus more than likely, I might not have time to do my usual house cleaning later on today, until after I fix the FTP feature between the two computers.    I have given up on exercise walking and most of my regular routines with the downtown local Greenwich population, which mainly seems to be a HELL bent group of Catholics whom really do not like more dour protestants.   From my viewpoint, if they are so intent to keep messing up simple ordinary computer systems, they must be up to more mischief in the general population.    They claim to be wealthy, but all they seem to be clever at is screwing up things.    Since the IBM family name is on the Greenwich Hospital, and since the computer constantly get screwed up in this area around the Greenwich Hospital and ibm, it leads me to believe the IBM, Harriman, Kennedy, Roosevelt, Watson families in this area are conducting an open campaign of sabotage against ordinary citizens going about ordinary routines, since they are not willing to pay some sort of political graft to their political machine.   I guess that would be the same for the former Clinton group nearby whom are always lingering around this area.   Since this building where I intend to live the rest of my life is about 20 democrats, and 6 republicans, and 30 first generation immigrants whom do not really give a dam, it could be pretty much anyone causing the problems.   The hacking problems do not show any special computer expertise, it shows a pattern of willing misconduct and mischief and neglect of other people's personal activity.    Thus since I have made mention of this in my notes many times, it would seem to me, those individuals whom look into such patterns of behavior, and whom have a larger over all picture in terms of the general population probably know a lot more.   Since I have already invested my time and money in this technology over the last 16 years, I am stuck using it.    However, if I were an organization or government with a lot more cheap labor than technology, I would not use these systems, since they are not very secure, and any grade school student seems to be able to mess them up.   Basically in computers, you get what you pay for.   In the world of computers, the systems I use compared to more advanced systems, is sort of like having somebody steal your hub caps off your Volkswagen.   If somebody tried the same tricks that they do with my systems on more advanced systems, more than likely they would end up making license plates during their spare time.   I am bored with this exercise in dealing with the stupidity of the local population.   However, even during World War II, there were individuals whom would read the letters of typewriter ribbons.   It is the nature of my position in this community that anyone bothering my computer system would more than likely be a foreign agent, and as such in times of war, they would be subject to espionage charges or deportation.   It does not matter whom they know, "THE LAW IS THE LAW".   I will now shut down the primary computer, and I will go to bed soon.    On a minor note, we also had a briefl Power Failure this evening.   Also with some of the local Italian residents whom
