I made my bed. I showered, and I cleaned up. My CVS toilet plunger broke. I threw out the garbage. I went by CVS at 644 West Putnam Avenue. I bought buy one get one free of CVS Spectravite 365 tablets for $20.99 both and buy one get one free of CVS 1000 mg. Vitamins C 100 caplets for $10.49 both for $31.48 total. CVS on West Putnam Avenue did not have any toilet plungers. I then went by the Stop and Shop, and they did not have any toilet plungers. I then went by the A&P Fresh, and I bought a Lysol toilet plunger and caddy for $19.19 and $1.22 tax for $20.41 total. I then went by www.cvs.com on Greenwich Avenue, and I bought two Nature's Bounty odor-free 2000 mg. garlic pills 120 tablets for $10.79 each, and two Michum men oxygen odor control deodorant 2.7 ounce for $2.99 each less 20% off the garlic pills with a CVS mail coupon for $4.32 off and .38 Connecticut 6.35% sales tax for $23.62 total. I then went further downtown. I walked the entire length of Greenwich Avenue and the train station area. I sat out at various locations. The three port-o-potties are no longer at the Greenwich Common, so after www.starbucks.com closes, one has to go the bathroom at one of the local pubs, until they close. Then one is left behind a tree. There were a number of younger people moving around. As I was waiting to turn left on Mason Street from Havemayer Place, a oncoming car that had a right blinker to turn on Mason Street kept going straight and almost hit me. They had a District of Columbia License Plate. It is good I waited for them to make the first move. I then went by the Putnam www.shell.com at 401 West Putnam Avenue, and I bought $7 of medium grade gasoline for $3.279 a gallon for 2.136 gallons at odometer reading of 110225 miles for 25.4 miles driving since Wednesday May 20, 2015 for 11.925 miles per gallon in local traffic. The regular night person is there. I then returned home. I picked up the mail. I put away my purchases. I put the new toilet plunger on the left side of the toilet with its caddy. It is the type that projects down the drain which is better than the flat ones. I will now heat and heat a Marie Callender 16 ounce chicken pot pie with a 12 ounce glass of Schweppes Ginger Ale. CIO
<888> 05/30/15 Saturday 5:55 A.M. I worked with Windows 10 beta for a while. I called up the Shell Station on West Putnam Avenue to let them know about Dutch Royalty coming to our country.

<888> 05/29/15 Friday 4:55 A.M. I did some regular internet work. I watched some broadcasts off the internet about Queen Juliana of the Netherlands, Queen Marguerite of Denmark, and Queen Elizabeth II which took a while. I also sent some more notes to Bill Gates Notes about the price of tea in China. Back last fall, when my bedroom closet shelf supporting my clothes collapsed, I repaired it by installing two pairs of speakers on either end to support the heavy weight and securing them with slats and a center two by four. I put a pair of slightly smaller speakers in the hallway from the bedroom far side. However, in doing that I took down the hallway flags. I moved the Honeywell Hepa air purifier from the top of the right hallway bookcase back to above the living room stereo system with it set on low. I moved a family picture to the pack rim of the center plant pot on the living room mahogany bureau. I put the left bookcase flags back up starting with the www.airforce.mil flag, then Bermuda flag, then Saudi Arabia, flag, then British Union Jack Flag, then U.S.A. flag, then the Swedish Cross flag. I used three OOK nails, and I hung the three larger flags over the right two book cases from the speakers above. First the large Scottish Cross of St. Andrews flag, then the large Dacron U.S.A. flag, and finally the large British Union Jack Flag. Thus the flags are now back in place. With the open bookcases covered, it makes the hallway look a bit smaller, but I had it like that for a long time. When I leave for Kennebunkport, Maine, I only fly the two U.S.A. flags in the hallway. Of course the Dutch tricolor flag is still flying over the left living room closet for the duration of the Dutch Royalty visit. However, since I sometimes have to access that closet particularly for better clothes, powdered milk and coffee; after the visit, I will put the Dutch Tricolor flag on top over the left hallway bookcase. I also moved the blue vase from on top of the bookcase above the stereo system to in front of the right living room window. Such is life. CIO

<888> 05/28/15 Thursday 7:05 P.M. I chatted with a friend having cocktails on the waterfront in East Fairfield Beach, Connecticut. The friend is from one of the original Dutch families in the New York area, so he has a large network of Dutch friends in New York State. He also was in the www.army.mil , so his friends know how to defend themselves. Apparently the Canadian military liberated the Netherlands in World War II. I threw out the garbage. I sat outside enjoying the evening. I chatted with neighbors and the building custodian. I picked up the mail. I chatted with a relative. I will now make cigarettes. For any cigar smokers, there is probably no tax on Dutch Master cigars. It says on the Royal Dutch Itinerary of the United States of America, there are 450,000 Dutch Americans in Michigan, the most populous Dutch American state. Since my mother is Dutch American having been born in Holland, Michigan; I know a little bit about the Dutch Americans. There are Dutch Reform churches in Rye, New York and Tarrytown, New York. Since the Dutch were the earliest settlers in this area, they probably have been able to hang onto property somewhere in this area. The Old Dutch deli might still be on East 86th Street in Manhattan. Also the Dutch tavern in Greenwich Village is no longer there. The Orange Society and the New Netherlands Society still exist. Most of the Dutch people I have met in New York City are larger people. The Dutch Royalty at home keep the Dutch Dragoons around whom are equally large people. I think the state of Iowa also has a lot of Dutch Americans. The only Dutch phrase that I know is, "Your Eyes are Bigger than your Stomach." There is Dutch children's shop on Greenwich Avenue that gives children's hair cuts called "Graham's. There use to be Dutch resident working the in Ralph Lauren men's department, but I was told that he went elsewhere. There used to be a Dutch resident working at Marmot. I used to know a Dutch resident that worked at www.citibank.com . The Vanderbilt and Van Munching families have lived here in the past. The Rockefeller family also claim Dutch heritage. Alas we have no windmills here. I think they used to sell windmill cookies here. I know somebody from the Dutch underground that used to live here. I met Queen Beatrice's nephew over 25 years ago, and he was a pilot for www.klm.com , and he told me he had the most tulips plants around his house in Ridgefield, Connecticut. Alas he could be anywhere in the world. The Dutch Royal family once lived in Connecticut in the 1960s for a while. I once saw somebody that looked like Prince Claus of the Netherlands around the Indian Harbor Yacht Club. I once saw a big Dutch flag flying on the waterfront in Ocgunquit, Maine. CIO

<888> 05/26/15 Tuesday 10:35 P.M. I change my switch setup. The TrendNet Router now turns on with the far right switch on the second down control panel, and it is labeled "Router". I connected up the spare Rosewill six switch power strip to the control panel switch to the left of the router switch, and I have all four net switches connected to the Rosewill power strip with six switches. The front switch is the 8 port Netgear switch which does not need to be turned on for the primary work computer and the Dell beta computer. The second switch from the front powers the TrendNet switch with only the primary work computer connected to it. The fourth switch back powers the Rosewill 8 port switch which powers the Dell beta computer connection. The sixth switch back is for the Netgear Switch with 16 connections, and that powers the connections for most of the computers on the network. Thus I only need to leave one or two switches on for regular work. The Rosewill power strip with six switch to the left of that is still the same connected to the Dell beta computer and the primary work computer speakers, but the rear sixth switch back turns on the Dynex wireless router, and for that to work the TrendNet router needs to be turned on. That power strip turns on with the top control panel center switch labeled "Center Monitor". Thus I have more direct control over my switches and routers. CIO
<888> 05/26/15 Tuesday 8:50 P.M. I took the New TrendNet Switch, and I hooked up to the fourth LAN port on the TrendNet Router, and I connected it only to the primary work computer. I have the TrendNet Switch connected to the power strip on the right side of the control panels, and it turns off and on with the fifth switch back, so I can easily connect and disconnect the primary work computer from the internet, and still use the beta Windows 10 computer. I still get 93 mbps download on the primary work computer. That is all I can think of. During World War II, they used burst communications which they turn on and off the short wave radios real fast and transmit real fast, before the enemy with their radio signal triangular devices could track down the point of origin. CIO
<888> 05/26/15 Tuesday 8:05 P.M. I don't leave the primary work computer online too much anymore because of hackers. with hackers it could come from next door or half way around the world. I have a theory the government knows about whom the hackers are, but they leave them alone, until they try something big time. 40% of United States workers work for Municipal, State, Federal, or Military organizations, so they probably have the hackers out numbers unless Big G is the hacker. It is definitely not me, since I do not know how to hack. However, a user friendly electric company could turn off the hacker's electricity, if you get my drift. CIO
<888> 05/26/15 Tuesday 7:45 P.M. I chatted with a friend. I have no respect for hackers. A lot of people use the internet for important activity. I picked up my mail. One of my neighbors got their www.safelink.com free telephone. I did not sit out side, because they were using the air tube machine to clear the cut grass off the sidewalks. I submitted scanned documents to www.safelink.com that their web site said I needed to submit. However, they already have a data base for my eligibility. When I got the free Obama cell phone, however the Big G took away the $15 a month I got on my www.verizon.com telephone, so I now have to pay $27.95 a month for that instead of $12.95. I guess both subsidies were from the same government plan. I chatted with a relative. CIO
<888> 05/26/15 Tuesday 4:15 P.M. I chatted with a relative. During World War II, when the Nazis took over France, the French were cleaver and strung telephone lines through the vineyards, which is where the expression came from, "Working the Grape Vine." I chatted with Optimum. I filed a complaint about my recent hacker experiences with http://complaint.ir3.gov/ . I called up New Scotland Yard at 011442072301212 , and I reported the same information. I also called up www.harvard.edu , and I had them connect me to the Harvard Law School computer department, and I recommended they should teach a course on "Computer Ethics".

I chatted with a neighbor. The building custodian told me that I can not clean the throw rugs in the hallway outside my apartment.

I bought four tomatoes for $1.49 a pound for $1.91, a head of cello iceberg lettuce for $1.49, and bananas for .49 a pound for .79 for $4.19 total. I then went downtown. I walked the entire length of Greenwich Avenue and the train station area. I sat out at various locations. I bought an Ace's High scratch card for a dollar at the Greenwich Cigar store, and I won $2 for a dollar profit. I chatted with a couple walking. I stopped by the www.chase.com ATM machine on the north side of Saks Fifth Avenue. I stopped by www.cvs.com , and I bought a 10 ounce Dinty Moore microwave beef stew dinner for free with $2 bonus bucks I got from the internet on my CVS card. I used the ATM machine at the Chase Bank at the top of Greenwich Avenue. I found a free book in front of the former Greenwich Health Mart called "The New 8 Week Cholesterol Cure" by Robert E. Kowalski. They have a few other free books there. I sat for a while enjoying the warmer evening. I used the bathroom at www.starbucks.com . I chatted with a new resident that survived his first winter here. I then went by the Stop and Shop again. I bought a 1.75 quart container of Turkey Hill Columbian Coffee ice cream for $2.50. I then returned back home. CIO
<888> 05/25/15 Monday 5:00 A.M. I did some Windows 10 beta testing. I will now shut down the primary work computer. I will eat a blueberry muffin, and then I will go to bed. CIO
<888> 05/25/15 Monday 1:35 A.M. The backup will be finished in a little while. Not much goes on in Greenwich, Connecticut; since half the town is under 16 years old, so it takes the other half of the town to keep the younger generation going. Also according to one expert, half the town drinks alcohol, and the other half does not. That would mean since children under 16 years old are not allowed to drink alcohol, the other half of the older population seems to get away with enjoying alcohol in their free time. There are a lot of liquor stores in the this area. That would be a good indicator that some of the local population probably do drink alcohol. Of course the Greenwich Police are very strict on drinking alcohol and driving, so I guess once the local population decides to have their cocktails, they tend to stay home. In Norway the fine for drinking alcohol and driving a vehicle is 15 years in jail, so I guess the Norwegians prefer to drink alcohol on cruise ships and travel. Also there is a law in Norway, one does not have to eat the salmon more than three times a week. In previous days, the low paid employees were fed salmon all of the time, since it is plentiful in Norway. I have met quite a few Norwegians in my life. Even in Key West at the Atlantic Shores beach club and in www.nantucket.net , they flew the Norwegian flag. The British used to be quite plentiful in the Greenwich, Connecticut area, but as the town got more expensive, they moved further out in the country. I guess the Norwegians with their north sea oil revenues can still afford to live here. The Scottish have to give their North Sea oil revenues to the British, so the Scottish can not afford to live any where. As for Scottish and Norwegian Americans, they are probably left looking for handouts from their distant cousins. The British seem to have some sort of pecking order or informal hierarchy around here. The rest of the international community can be confusing, because some of them might have lived in the United Kingdom before coming here and adopted British ways. Most of the international community seem to be quite private, and I have learned to try to respect their privacy. I am told half of the town of Greenwich, Connecticut is of international origin. In the 1962, when I first moved here, there was a large international population back then too. I suppose a lot of them are professionals in nearby New York City. Of course some of the founders of Pan American Airlines lived here, so we have had a large group of international travelers here since aviation began. My father Louis Dale Scott traveled a million miles on Pan Am by 1952. I used to have a world map to keep track of his travels. Many of the corporations that he was an executive with also had private fleets of jets and airplanes, so I traveled frequently on them as a youth. In the 1950s I flew on McDonald Douglas DC3s and Gulf Stream Turbo props. I even arrived for my interview at Greenwich Country Day from Decatur, Alabama on a DC3 back in 1962. Thus as a youth, I had an interest in aviation. I used to like going out to the airport to watch the planes take off and land on Sundays. There is an observation area at the new Westchester County airport terminal, but it costs too much to park out there anymore. I used to park in the Xerox executive parking spaces just south of the terminal. However, I think one needs a Xerox sticker now. When I first moved back to Greenwich, I lived at 700 Steamboat Road for 4.5 years across the harbor from Peter McCullough the head of Xerox. On my last two trips to Laguna Beach, California back in 1980, I visited with Joel who was the head of Xerox Parc. I suppose I have seen other Xerox people in this area over the years. They used to have offices over in Stamford, Connecticut on High Ridge Road by the Merritt Parkway. However, I find their laser printers too expensive to buy and way too expensive to maintain compared to the foreign models like Brother that are cheaper to operate. However, if one were in a large busy office, I suppose they have the best products at www.xerox.com . In the 1960s they were a well known blue chip company, and they were quite profitable. CIO
<888> 05/24/15 Sunday 11:35 P.M. The two Lenovo ThinkCentres and the Dell Latitude E6400 laptop will not download the Windows 10 Technical Preview Enterprise Edition Version 10122. The update process on the Windows 10 betas is very fickle, and it sometimes depends on the time of day and the amount of traffic the Microsoft servers are getting.

I bought two 6 packs of Thomas' English muffins for $2.50 each and a four pack of blueberry muffins for $3.99 for $8.99 total. I then went downtown. I chatted with a relative on my free wireless Obama cell phone. I chatted with two regular walkers. I walked the entire length of Greenwich Avenue and the train station area. I sat out at various locations. I chatted with the two other walkers again. I chatted with a Vineyard Vines employee. I toured www.cvs.com . They have www.pepsi.com soda 12 packs on sale for two for $7 plus can deposit and tax. It was a slow evening without much going on around town. They have three port-o-potties available by the construction site at the Greenwich Common. I do not know if they are left over from the block party yesterday downtown or for the construction project on the new Greenwich Common. It would be nice to have one available for when www.starbucks.com is not opened. Obviously older people have to go to the bathroom more frequently. Maybe they should build a public bathroom on the new Greenwich Common. They are still putting up the new steel work on the new fire house and the building on the east side of lower Greenwich Avenue. I then returned home, and I put away my purchases. CIO
<888> 05/24/15 Sunday 4:25 P.M. I woke up at 1:30 P.M., and I chatted with a relative. On the primary work computer first hard drive, I did a one percent low level format with the Seagate Utilities. I did that in case I had a boot sector virus. I then restored the good Complete PC backup from May 14, 2015. After that I restored the few changed files. I also set the Fire Fox web browser not to automatically update. I ate breakfast of oatmeal with honey and milk and a sliced banana, a toasted English muffin with olive oil, a glass of 50% punch and 50% cold filtered water with vitamins and supplements, and a cup of coffee with Splenda sweetener and milk. I made my bed. I shut down the primary work computer. I will now shower and clean up. I will then go downtown to Greenwich Avenue for a walk on a warm evening. It is getting to be a real bore having my primary work computer hacked every day. I have to remind any hackers out there on the internet, that one gets out of life what one puts into life. CIO

When I restore the backup, I still have to install the Fire Fox update which might be defective. Internet Explorer 11 is too slow on it, and I guess I could always try Chrome or Safari or Opera. Possibly my older slower work computer can not support the new web browser features such as multiple video advertisements.

<888> 05/23/15 Saturday 12:10 A.M. I read the Hoover Carpet Cleaner Manual, and it seems simple enough to use. I should probably clean the carpets on a warmer dry day. Also I should probably do the kitchen, hallway and bedroom at one time, and then do the living room at another time. I will have a number of small objects to move possibly in the hallway outside the apartment. I should also clean the throw rugs in the hallway outside the apartment, so they lie flat, but I am not sure if that is allowed by the Greenwich Housing Authority, but I could try to do them in place on the carpet. The carpet is old underneath the throw rugs, so I hope it does not deteriorate with washing. CIO

Historically it happens this time of the year, when the so called young hackers get out of their various schools and return home to this area.

<888> 05/21/15 Thursday 2:20 A.M. It is so long ago that I went to www.lfc.edu that I can not remember all of my classmates. I do remember one classmate at www.lfc.edu had a step father that was the Chairman of the Board of www.lipton.com and two of his daughters lived somewhere in China. They made a good pitcher of ice tea in Marblehead, Massachusetts where they lived. I think the Chairman of the Board of Lipton Tea was also a member of the Indian Harbor Yacht Club, so he might have known people in this area. I once was invited on to his sailboat out on www.nantucket.net , and I noticed his Massachusetts nautical number was "MS 7", when most boats had at least five numbers, and he also went to www.harvard.edu . That classmate married a British artist after working at the A&P which also sells tea. Of course back in Jolly Old England, they different tea like Twinings Tea http://www.twinings.com/ and Red Rose Tea. Of course the https://en-gb.facebook.com/theagakhan probably drinks India tea which is hard to find in this area. The Japanese once gave my father some Japanese tea, so one could go to the Japanese grocery store on East Putnam Avenue in Riverside section of Greenwich by Exit 5 off I-95 http://www.yelp.com/biz/fuji-mart-greenwich , and buy some Japanese tea or rice there. Of course a lot of different Asian countries produce tea, and like tobacco, some tea merchants blend different varieties of tea.

<888> 05/21/15 Thursday 12:50 A.M. I chatted with the Wilton, Connecticut Police Department, and I reminded them I have not been up that way in a few years http://www.wiltonpolice.org/ . I think the last time I was there was when I registered the Volvo wagon at the Connecticut Department of Motor Vehicles nearby about two and a half years ago. Of course when I drive the Merritt Parkway back and forth to Kennebunkport, Maine; I drive near there. I have a friend that used to be in real estate business there, so he probably knows about what is going on there. The people are more Nordic looking in Wilton and Ridgefield, Connecticut; but that might have changed with the large waves of new immigrants into this area. Alas I can not afford to move anywhere to be around my own people, so I will have to learn to blend in with new waves of immigrants into this area. By Nordic standards, I am a smaller person. CIO
<888> 05/20/15 Wednesday 11:55 P.M. I once read in our local media that Peggy Rockefeller was raising Swiss Dairy Cows in North Tarrytown. About 25 to 20 years ago, I used to visit a pub in White Plains, New York, and I met a few people from that area. Scott Nelson from Minnesota lived in Irvington, New York above the bakery, and he worked at the Chart House in Dobbs Ferry. There were a lot of dark haired people, but I tend not to network with dark haired people. Also we met an older man from England named David Lloyd who once bought a few of us breakfast at the diner nearby. A lot of the people were from the Westchester County area. I recall that some real estate firm over there came over here and started buying commercial properties. Also the Watson family trust help build a new hospital here in Greenwich, so we don't have to hang out around the White Plains hospital workers at night for better security. There is too much traffic in White Plains, New York, so I rarely drive over there. In my life I have visited North Tarrytown, New York about seven times. About 25 years ago, I gave the church there http://ucph.org/ $78 at Christmas Time, and every Christmas I send them a $10 check. It is one of the oldest Dutch churches in the area. The Rockefeller estate is a former Dutch farm. There might be some other Dutch people in that area, but I don't like driving in lots of traffic. www.klm.com has a big office building in White Plains, New York; so there also might be some Dutch Europeans there too. I ate three scoops of Friendly Fudge Swirl ice cream. CIO

I once saw Happy Rockefeller at www.cvs.com on Greenwich Avenue around Christmas Time about 10 years ago. Since Fred Von Mierers knew Nelson Rockefeller, I learned to know what she looked like. Alas although I covered Manhattan on and off from January 1973 to February 1982, I never recognized Nelson Rockefeller, although I walked by his New York City apartment just north of the Pierre Hotel many times. I would see his 1968 brown and tan Oldsmobile 98 parked in front with New License Plate 1908. I once did see John D. Rockefeller III looking at the Tiffany's windows at Christmas Time on Fifth Avenue. Since they had older children and younger grandchildren, they were not in my pier group. I did go to Greenwich Country Day with some of their distant relatives. Supposedly one member of the Rockefeller family ran a small woman's dress shop on Strait Wharf in www.nantucket.net , when I was there, but that was many moons ago. I have met a number of people over the years that looked like and knew Nelson Rockefeller, so he must have had a large network of look a like friends. CIO

When I used to drive around covering the night time activity in this area into the early morning hours, I noticed the bar is opened until 4 A.M., for anyone whom can still afford to risk drinking alcohol in this area. There are people whom work at night in this area, and get off work at midnight. Before the internet became popular, I used to go to pubs and have one beer or a www.perrier.com , and chat with people. However, frequently the disco or pub music or television was so loud, it was hard to communicate with people. I think possibly young people still have places where they hang out and network with each other. Alas at age 65, I enjoy a cup of green tea with Splenda sweetener and lemon juice.

I ate breakfast of oatmeal with honey and milk and a sliced banana, a toasted English muffin with olive oil, a glass of 50% punch and 50% cold filtered water with vitamins and supplements, and a cup of coffee with Splenda sweetener and milk.

<888> 05/18/15 Monday 7:20 P.M. I took a 6.4 ounce package of Banquet maple sausages, and I put the 10 sausages on a two paper towels on a microwave plate, and I put them in the Sharp Microwave oven with microwave lid for two minutes. Before doing that I took four jumbo A&P eggs, and I broke them in a mixing bowl, and I added Italian spices, ground black pepper, celery salt, two tablespoons of grated parmesan and Romano cheese, two tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil, and four tablespoons of milk, and I mixed it all together with a whisk. I then heated a 10 inch stick proof frying pan over medium high electric burner heat with three tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil and a tablespoon of Smart Balance extra virgin olive oil spread. Once the fat was hot, I added the egg mixture and the microwaved sausages. I reduced the heat to medium electric burner heat. I started toasting an English muffin. I stirred the scrambled eggs and sausages frequently, and once they were cooked medium soft, I put the frying pan on a dinner plate to heat it, and then I put the scrambled eggs and sausages mixture on the dinner plate and the toasted English muffin with extra virgin olive oil. I ate it all with a 12 ounce glass of Schweppes Ginger Ale. I will now take a nap. CIO
<888> 05/18/15 Monday 6:00 P.M. I chatted with a friend. I threw out the garbage. I sat outside for a while enjoying a cool evening. I picked up the mail. The order with tracking of https://tools.usps.com/go/TrackConfirmAction?qtc_tLabels1=9400109699938450205454 on the order for http://www.ebay.com/itm/Transfer-Cap-Refill-Kit-For-The-Lysol-No-Touch-Kitchen-and-Hand-Soap-Dispenser/281667310827?_trksid=p2045573.c100034.m2102&_trkparms=aid%3D222007%26algo%3DSIC.MBE%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D20131003150253%26meid%3D0dd570766e714e37a1348ec450589614%26pid%3D100034%26rk%3D4%26rkt%3D7%26sd%3D201348983551 for $5 and $2 shipping arrived. It says one has to use http://www.amazon.com/DETTOL-First-Aid-Antiseptic-Liquid/dp/B000GCRX6G#mini_olp_section to refill the Lysol soap dispensers, but that might be more expensive than the dollar refills. I chatted with a relative. CIO
<888> 05/18/15 Monday 1:55 P.M. I had a telephone call at 10 A.M. from someone from Brooklyn. They wanted to know where to get air conditioning freon for a 1992 Buick Roadmaster wagon. I told them about www.jcwhitney.com . I finally woke up at noon. I ate breakfast of oatmeal with honey and milk and a sliced banana, a toasted English muffin with olive oil, a glass of 50% punch and 50% cold filtered water with vitamins and supplements, and a cup of coffee with Splenda sweetener and milk.

<888> 05/18/15 Monday 12:15 A.M. I have a theory about computer hacking and malware in this neck of the woods. Possibly some government foreign or domestic has a super computer that scans personal computers and seeks out content and attacks them based on their information data base or politics. Alas the electric company usually has the last word, when it comes to computers. Since geothermal electricity is very cheap in Iceland, since Norway once owned Iceland and still has a lot of influence there, possibly the Norwegians with the help of the www.ibm.com building in Oslo, Norway which is one of the more formidable structures there, have developed some sort of internet surveillance system which would be very expensive to run in any other part of the world with all of the electricity that super computers consume. Thus they may not be leading edge in computer technology, but they have an abundant resource of natural energy to do things their way from their perspective. I think Iceland like Norway and Canada and Alaska and Russia and Greenland and Sweden and Finland and North Korea also has Polar Bears which might not be user friendly to nature hikers. Scotland also has one in a zoo.

<888> 05/17/15 Sunday 11:20 P.M. Also this past Friday morning, Bloomberg News had a story about a German web entrepreneur who was a hacker in his younger days, and his file sharing network in New Zealand was raided by 75 New Zealand Special Forces, and he was put out of business. He still maintains the web domain "kimdotcom" which one DOES NOT want to look at, because when I looked at it on Friday, my computer was running fine. However, on Saturday night I went to bed at 7:30 P.M. leaving the primary work computer on probably going into Standby mode, and when I woke up this morning at 4 A.M., the newly restored system was totally messed up and going very slowly, so I had to restore the recent backup again. Thus Bloomberg by mentioning the news story might have messed up a lot of financial computers. If not that, it might be that somebody hacked me through my new wireless router that I have my LAN cables connected to, but Optimum claims, one can not do that. I was told a lot of local Greenwich, Connecticut people are going to http://www.computersupercenter.com/ with virus and hacker problems. I have learned to keep multiple good backups of all of my systems, so if I get hacked or other problems, I just restore the backup. The first thing they teach in computers is "Backup, Backup, Backup!" and then "GIGO" which stands for Garbage In, Garbage Out. CIO
Earlier I took a fourth of a head of cello iceberg lettuce, and I ripped it up into small pieces in a large soup bowl with two sliced tomatoes. I seasoned it with garlic powder, ground black pepper, Italian spices, celery salt, McCormick southwest Salad Toppins, a quarter cup of grated parmesan and Romano cheese, and I put Ken's blue cheese dressing and extra virgin olive oil on it. I ate it with a 12 ounce glass of Schweppes Ginger Ale. CIO
<888> 05/17/15 Sunday 10:45 P.M. If one reads other news stories, we all know former President Clinton has a house near Indian Point Nuclear Power Plant, but the most recent news stories are that he is now living out in Arkansas, and his wife is always on the road in politics, so they might know something, they are not telling us. The local mafia observer on our waterfront here in Greenwich, Connecticut for the last ten years or more was a Bill Clinton neighbor near Indian Point Nuclear Power Plant, before he moved here and became high tech, and when I last talked to him over a year ago, he told me he was moving to Texarkana, where ever that is. Of course all of these are older people, who are maybe retiring. I chatted with another retired physicist in our area this evening, and he told me, when he worked at the Indian Point Nuclear Power Plants, they did not even have the original blue prints for trouble shooting. Also the company that owns it, wants to recertify it until the year 2033 or 2035. It would be interesting to know if any of the Rockefellers are still living in that area, but they are a very private family anymore, so not much is known about their movements in this neck of the woods. When I toured Hyde Park about 25 years ago, I recall driving by the Indian Point Nuclear Power Plant, and I recall seeing a small www.navy.mil emergency depot on the road nearby it. CIO

<888> 05/17/15 Sunday 7:10 P.M. I chatted with a relative. I went outside, and I threw out the garbage. I sat outside enjoying the warmer evening. I chatted with a neighbor. Like all of my neighbors, they do not like chatting with me, since they do not consider me part of the local community. I guess, when one grows up in back country going to private schools, one has a different network of friends, than the locals downtown on Greenwich Avenue, whom seem to think they know everyone in town. Of course some of my old neighbors in town became quite famous in town and even worldwide, while I managed to stay private watching it all come an go from my local perspective. I know there is an airport nearby, so anyone or anything can show up in our neck of the woods. Alas growing up around well known people did very little to accelerate my upward mobility. I guess having lived on remote islands, I think Greenwich, Connecticut is a small island surround by a big ocean. The people whom come up here to work in the summer from down south are probably looking for their local patrons to give them some sort of employment in this area. When I was 17 years old and very skinny, and I had first learned to drive an automobile, I worked one summer framing a house on Baldwin Farm South just off Round Hill Road as a non union carpenter, and I was able to carry two 8 foot by 4 foot by .75 inch sheets of plywood to the roof with a claw hammer. I guess that is why I was in better shape on the golf course at the Greenwich Country Club than some of the other younger golfers. Alas, although I was once a professional photographer up at www.polaroid.com in Dr. Land's research laboratory on Osborne Street next to www.mit.edu and near www.harvard.edu , I spent so many years reading books and recently for the last 25 years on personal computers, I am not as good of an observer as I once was, when I was younger. Also having been on a night schedule since 1965, I have better night vision and instincts than daytime vision and instincts. Frequently at night, one uses their hearing, and my hearing is still very good, since I quit going to loud places many years ago. CIO
End of Scott's Notes week of 05/17/15
<888> 05/17/15 Sunday 5:35 P.M. I will now send out my weekly notes. CIO
<888> 05/17/15 Sunday 5:30 P.M. I contacted the https://www.whitehouse.gov/contact/submit-questions-and-comments about the Greenwich Housing Authority about making residents quit smoking in Greenwich Housing Authority buildings. I know smoking cigarettes is not healthy, but frequently when I quit smoking cigarettes, I end up walking around with a lot of British people and somebody that looks like Prince Charles, and then I am left homeless on the beach on some remote island with no means of support. Part of my karma is smoking cigarettes and trying to think calmly instead of doing things on impulse. Even around United States Government officials and foreign visitors which I see all of the time here in Greenwich, Connecticut; many of them still smoke tobacco. Even at the www.un.org headquarters in Manhattan, people are allowed to smoke tobacco the last I heard. CIO
<888> 05/17/15 Sunday 3:50 P.M. I called up http://barnstablepolice.com/contacts.html about an incident that happened at Tod's Point 15 year ago, if you have not forgotten.

<888> 05/17/15 Sunday 12:40 P.M.. From a Scottish, English, Dutch perspective driving around Greenwich Avenue in a Swedish Volvo Wagon on Norwegian Constitutional Day might be risky. The Scottish and the Swedes historically have had a bit of conflict with the Norwegian Viking raiders. However, when I was in Lazarote in the Canary Islands back in February 1972, Rhone Dietrin and his mother offered me hospitality at their small bungalow at the end of the runway. Also I went to Greenwich Country Day with a prominent Norwegian that travels a bit. I chatted with a friend. Ronald Reagan's ambassador to Norway was also from Lake Forest, Illinois where www.lfc.edu is located. I might have known W. Bush's ambassador to Norway at one time, since I once visited the Whitney home in Minnesota with a Whitney cousin. The most famous Norwegian American is probably http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eliot_Ness . CIO
<888> 05/17/15 Sunday 12:05 P.M.. I chatted with a relative. I put a new Lysol Citrus refill in the Lysol Automatic soap dispenser in the bathroom.
On a minor a note the Choate Rosemary Hall alumni reunion is this weekend. A large number of the former Rosemary Hall alumni are going to be bussed down from Wallingford, Connecticut for a chapel service at the old St. Bee's Chapel on the former Rosemary Hall Campus on Lake Avenue just south of the Field Club. There will be a prominent group of old guard women, so the town of Greenwich and Greenwich Avenue should be on extra special good behavior for the prominent group of old guard women. Some of them are probably movers and shakers today. The former St. Bee's Chapel now the Jewish School campus is being put up for sale, if anyone wants to buy it. It has the names of a lot of former Rosemary Hall alumni in it. CIO
<888> 05/17/15 Sunday 10:45 A.M.. The primary work computer was acting buggy, so I restored the recent backup. Possibly it was that New Zealand file sharing web site that Bloomberg News talked about yesterday. The German fellow there is supposed to be a professional hacker, so possibly he has some malware on his server. I chatted with Cablevision about the problem. I thought possibly somebody might be hacking my wireless. They said not. The told me about a Black Ice program that freezes the operating system from changes, but I can not find it. They also told me about a web site I can not remember to build one's own Apple computer out of cheaper Intel parts. It was Joe Something or Other. I chatted with a relative. I will now shower and clean up. CIO

<888> 05/16/15 Saturday 12:40 P.M.. I have a New Zealand Maury Tiki in my apartment that a relative gave to me, after visiting New Zealand. In February 1983, after I finished building the garage apartment in Plandome Manor, Long Island for about 10 months at less than $2 an hour, I received $8,500 in Barclay's travelers checks. I bought the new tenant a Scottish umbrella at Brooks Brothers for $50 and a Braun coffee grinder at McNulty's on Christopher Street for about $40 knowing the new tenant liked coffee. I went to Brooks Brothers in Manhattan near Grand Central Station in Manhattan, and I bought a brown leather New Zealand Bomber's jacket for half price for $250. I also bought my father a Brook's Brothers replica World War II bomber jacket for $250. Shortly after that I visited Washington D.C., and they thought I looked like a thug in a brown leather bomber's jacket, so I sent it to a friend in Malibu Colony to model, but it was returned to a relative in the Philadelphia area. Shortly later, I bought myself another New Zealand size 40 brown leather bomber's jacket at the same Brooks Brothers store near Grand Central Station, and I wore that frequently until I got too fat to wear it around 1984. I still have it though in case I ever lose weight. Back in those days, there was a group of New Yorkers that liked wearing leather jackets in the Chelsea area of Manhattan, but I did not know any of them, since they were a lot older than I was. CIO

<888> 05/15/15 Friday 9:25 P.M.. I chatted with a relative. The relative told me Holland, Michigan also had an A&P food store. Also back around 1974 and 1975, when I drove out to Oyster Bay, Long Island with Fred Von Mierers and Helen Kress Williams to move her to Locust Valley, Long Island, we stopped by a large 24 hour A&P food store in Glencoe, Long Island, where they would buy a large Purdue chicken to eat. Fred knew how to cook a Purdue chicken basting it with butter and white wine. I do not recall whether he used herbs and spices. When ever Helen Williams saw the A&P, she would say 1859, when it was founded. Also she saved her A&P tea bags in her Manhattan apartment for her garden on Long Island. One relative says, one can use coffee ground in the garden, but I am not sure what the old tea bags do in a garden. CIO
<888> 05/15/15 Friday 8:45 P.M.. On the http://ap.apsupermarket.com/ , I have had a long time love hate relationship with the A&P stores. When my family lived in Decatur, Alabama from 1956 to 1962, we shopped at the A&P Grocery store there along with the local Kroger grocery store. When we moved into the Greenwich, Connecticut area in June 1962, we shopped at the old A&P Grocery store on Greenwich Avenue, along with Finest where Whole Foods is now, and across the street, I think was another grocery store, and the old Grand Union where the Stop and Shop is now. When we moved back to Greenwich is June 1973, the A&P was moved to its present location across the street from the Stop and Shop. When I used Fred Von Mierers apartment near Beekman Place from October 1973 to February 1975, there was an A&P at 52nd Street and Second Avenue. When my family lived in New Canaan in 1967 and when I house sat in New Canaan in 1980, I used the A&P in New Canaan, Connecticut. When I stayed at a friend's father's house in Port Washington, Long Island on and off from 1979 to 1980, there was an A&P around the corner. I can not recall if we shopped at an A&P in Wellesley and Weston, Massachussetts. When I lived in the Chelsea section of Manhattan for three months in 1974, there was an A&P at Eighth Avenue and 19th Street that I shopped at. When I was homeless in Key West during the winters of 1977 and 1978, there was an A&P in Key West, and the A&P stores also had warehouses in Key West. When I was out at www.nantucket.net during the summers of 1975, 1976, 1977, 1978, 1979, and 1983, there was an A&P down by the waterfront in Nantucket. Huntington Hartford who was one of the A&P heirs knew my father, and once sent his yacht out to the Indian Harbor Yacht Club to take my parents for a cruise. When I used Fred Von Mierer's apartment Huntington Hartford had a triplex pent house on Beekman Place. When I visited Paradise Island in February 1978, and I was around a lot of British VIPs, I knew Huntington Hartford had developed Paradise Island in the Bahamas from the old Hogg Island. Alas since our local A&P is so expensive, I do not shop there too much. Old Fashioned oatmeal costs a dollar more than the Stop and Shop. Also iceberg lettuce costs $1.50 more, but the A&P Foxy lettuce heads are larger. However, I like the blueberry muffins better at the A&P. They are light and fluffy like the might have yeast in them. Also the A&P has a better seafood department, if one can afford seafood. Still the Stop and Shop frequently has more sale items for the products that I regularly eat. CIO

I got a wrong number telephone call from Rizzo electric. I am trying to stay away from Greenwich Avenue, so I don't interfere with the local business community trying to make lots of money off our new visitors. We always get visitors here, but some are more territorial than others. Nobody ever communicates with me outside my family network and a couple of friends, since having lived on the low end of the economic ladder for many years, I am not worth bothering. I could probably give out Windows Computers tips, but those are all available on the internet. CIO
<888> 05/15/15 Friday 3:15 P.M.. I went out, and I went by CVS at 644 West Putnam Avenue.

I then went by the A&P Fresh. I bought a 42 ounce Quaker Old Fashioned oatmeal for $5.99, a 8 ounce America's Choice Romano and Parmesan cheese for $4.69, a 16 ounce Ken's chunky blue cheese dressing for $3, a 1.86 ounce McCormick's whole black peppercorns for $4.69, two 8.5 ounce Lay's Mesquite barbecue potato chips for $3 each, a four pack of blueberry muffins $3.99, bananas for .79 a pound for $2.06, a head of Foxy lettuce for $2.99 for $31.41 total. Some unknown white male about my size and age behind me who was buying three tiny bottles of Borden's lemon juice and small jars of honey and other items tried to pay forward my purchase, but I declined. As it was later explained at my next appointment, it was one of those odd California things they do on the west coast. Possibly it was an Aglophile person, since I think some people in England use lemon and honey in their tea. After my appointment, I returned home, and I chatted with neighbors, and I put away my groceries. CIO

<888> 05/14/15 Thursday 7:00 P.M.. I drank a cup of Columbian coffee with Splenda sweetener and milk. I sat outside for a while, and I chatted with neighbors. I walked over to CVS with a neighbor who bought cat food. I chatted with the neighbor a bit. I picked up the mail. I got the letter from the Greenwich Housing Authority saying that all tenants in Greenwich Public Housing have to quit smoking on the premises as of January 1, 2016. Thus I have a while to quit smoking cigarettes. From a legal point of view, I don't think that is legal, but the government does a lot of illegal activity all of the time. CIO
<888> 05/14/15 Thursday 4:35 P.M.. I finished the backup. I heated and ate a 21 ounce Bird's Eye chicken Buffalo Style Voila dinner which I put grated parmesan and Romano cheese on, and I ate it with a 12 ounce glass of Schweppes Ginger Ale. I took a nap from 1:30 P.M. to 4:15 P.M.. CIO
<888> 05/14/15 Thursday 12:45 P.M.. I woke up at 7 A.M.. I did a Complete PC backup of the primary work computer to the third internal hard drive. I ate breakfast of oatmeal with honey and milk and a sliced banana, a toasted English muffin with olive oil, a glass of 50% punch and 50% cold filtered water with vitamins and supplements, and a cup of coffee with Splenda sweetener and milk. I made my bed. I showered, and I cleaned up. I threw out the garbage. I chatted with a neighbor. I walked around the building. I opened up a 33 ounce bag of Eight O'clock Columbian Peaks coffee beans, and I filled one of the Braun coffee grinders, so freshly ground coffee in now available in the kitchen. I did an Aomei backup of the primary computer to the Rosewill SATA 1 TB USB external hard drive. I sat outside for a while. I chatted with a relative. I will now do a Complete PC backup of the primary work computer to the Toshiba SATA 1 TB drive in the Rosewill USB external drive holder. CIO
<888> 05/14/15 Thursday 1:15 A.M.. After the last note, I called up Optimum about the correct MTU, and they recommended 1500. They also suggested that I reinstall Internet Explorer 11. I uninstalled it, but when I went to try to reinstall it, it would not install. After trying a number of times, I restored my Complete PC backup from March 17, 2015. I showered, and I cleaned up. I threw out the garbage. I sat outside, and I chatted with a neighbor. I picked up the mail. I chatted with a relative. After the restore, I had to reinstall the Windows Updates and the changed files and the tweak below and a few other items. While doing that I put clean linens on my bed. I did two loads of laundry. I threw out the garbage and the old periodical literature. I watered the plants. I ate a deli sliced turkey and Swiss cheese sandwich on toasted 15 grain bread with Hellmann's olive oil mayonnaise and a dill pickle slice and Lays jalapeño kettle potato chips and a 12 ounce glass of Schweppes Ginger Ale. The primary work computer is now running a little bit better. I will now shut down the primary work computer. I will eat a blueberry muffin, and then I will go to bed. CIO
<888> 05/13/15 Wednesday 11:05 A.M.. On my primary work computer with Windows 7, Internet Explorer 8, 9, 10, and 11 have been buggy for a long time, no matter what I tried. I have been using Firefox for a web browser. I finally figured out the problem with Internet Explorer, and it is not software. I tried www.speakeasy.net speed test with Internet Explorer 11, and I was only getting 4 mbps download where as with FireFox I get 108 mbps. I remembered an old tweak from years ago, and I went to SpeedGuide.net :: TCP Optimizer / Downloads , and I downloaded TCP Optimizer, and I ran it as an administrator. I then set it for "Optimized" with 100 mbps speed and 1500 MTU, and I saved the setting, and I rebooted. Now on the speed test with Internet Explorer 11, I get about 25 mbps. CIO

I made my bed. I noticed two days ago, when I visited www.cvs.com on Greenwich Avenue that in their center right front aisle, they have a large display of www.coke.com products and paraphernalia. CIO
<888> 05/13/15 Wednesday 1:15 A.M.. Dick Tracy watches were in the comic strips in the 1940s http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2015/03/10/how-dick-tracy-invented-the-apple-watch.html , but I am not sure how good they were at solving crimes. One of my actor friends from www.cbs.com in my days in Manhattan knew Peter Falk from the "Colombo" detective series. I will now shut down the primary work computer. I will eat a blueberry muffin. I will then go to bed. CIO
!!!!!! <888> 05/12/15 Tuesday 11:35 P.M.. Bourbon Feels the Burn of a Barrel Shortage . Back in 1979, when I returned from Daytona, Florida in the spring, a relative had gotten remarried and moved away from this area. I used the apartment across the street from where I am living now with a friend for two months. I had a bit of free time, so I went to the old lumber yard by where the Griffin Ford used car lot used to be, and I bought a 8 foot by 1 inch by 12 inch plank of white oak for $50. It took me at least a month, and I made a wedding chest out of it. However, I stained it dark cherry, and I polyurethaned it. However, being white oak, it was quite heavy. It was my version of a Bombay Chinese tea chest. I think it is still in the relative's house in Florida. CIO

<888> 05/12/15 Tuesday 9:45 P.M.. I ate a 13.6 ounce Marie Callender steak and roasted potatoes dinner with a 12 ounce glass of Schweppes Ginger Ale. When I met Roger Schultz over 27 years ago, he told me was a software engineer for http://www.schweppesus.com/ . He once visited my apartment, and sat in the Queen Anne chair that I once had. Thus although he appeared to be one of the larger men in this area, he could fit into a Queen Anne chair and my old www.ford.com Escort. He used to telecommunicate with an associate in Vermont somewhere. I guess knowing computers really well, he manages to stay invisible on the internet. I know where he lived 27 years ago. He told me he went to http://christchurchgreenwich.org/ in Greenwich and was a friend of Nancy Carnegie Rockefeller, but I don't think she fed him. Roger if he is still alive is probably close to 80 years old, so more than likely if he is still alive, he has retired and probably lost weight. I once drove him over to the Egghead Software Clearance Center in Nanuet, New York across the Tappan Zee River bridge over the Hudson River, so that old bridge could support his weight and the Ford Escort, but I think the broke the shock absorbers getting into the car. For some odd reason, I am always running into big people. However, out in the Midwest of America where they produce food there are plenty of giant people that make the big people back east look just average. CIO

<888> 05/12/15 Tuesday 1:45 P.M.. I chatted with someone from the Ukraine and the Crimea yesterday that was going into Manhattan. I tried to chat with someone from California, but they were too busy chatting on their cell phone. It seems we might have a few visitors in the area, but with New York City nearby, we always have visitors. I took a fourth of a head of Foxy iceberg lettuce, and I ripped it up into small pieces in a large soup bowl with two sliced tomatoes. I seasoned it with ground black pepper, Italian spices, celery salt, garlic powder, McCormick southwest Salad Toppins, a quarter cup of grated parmesan and Romano cheese, and I put Ken's blue cheese dressing and extra virgin olive oil on it. I ate it with a 12 ounce glass of Schweppes Ginger Ale.

<888> 05/12/15 Tuesday 9:20 A.M.. For the not so high tech group in Greenwich, Connecticut; I happened to notice recently in the north side lobby of the Greenwich Train Station on the east side, there happens to be a private carrier pay telephone. It is four quarters for one dollar charge to call anywhere in the world for four minutes. A local telephone call is 50 cents or two quarters. They also have about a dozen special numbers to call, but I am not sure if there is a charge or not. CIO

<888> 05/12/15 Tuesday 1:10 A.M.. Back in 1973, I found a large studio apartment on East 70th Street two doors east of the https://explorers.org/ for $350 a month. A friend Sandy Carlson last known in Paris rented it. In between the Explorer's Club and the half story up front apartment with a large studio living room and small Pullman kitchen and bath was a French restaurant that was the favorite of the Duke of Windsor and Wallace. It was near the http://www.frick.org/ and in the same neighborhood the Mellon town house recently sold for $41 million http://www.sothebyshomes.com/nyc/sales/0018793 .

<888> 05/11/15 Monday 9:55 P.M.. The CFCF coffee shop across the street from CVS on Greenwich Avenue changed their name to Coffee Cafe Roasters https://plus.google.com/104612999053839676001/about?gl=us&hl=en . I chatted with a couple outside their shop having a cup of coffee in white China cups and saucers today, and they told me it was the best coffee shop in Greenwich. I think they also sell www.perrier.com there too. I told them when I visited Paris, France during the Albertville, France Olympics in February 1992, I noticed there was a very nice deluxe coffee shop across the street to the northeast side of the http://www.louvre.fr/ . However, in Europe they allowed to serve liquor in coffee shops, so the locals frequently have a pick me up in their free time. I drank a cup of coffee with Splenda sweetener and milk. Of course, my friend Tony from Sao Paulo, Brazil that knew the Aga Khan claimed his grandfather owned a million acres of coffee plantation in Brazil. Alas his email does not work anymore, so I hope we don't run out of coffee here soon. The last I heard from Tony was he was with the Brazilian Tourist Authority, and he had just bought a new www.ford.com Escort. There are supposed to be fifty thousand Brazilians living in Danbury, Connecticut; so he might still have some friends around here. Brazilian constructions companies are suppose to be doing a lot of the new construction down in Florida. CIO
<888> 05/11/15 Monday 8:20 P.M.. I woke up at 7 P.M.. I threw out some garbage. I sat outside for a while. I picked up the mail. I chatted with two relatives. CIO
<888> 05/11/15 Monday 2:40 P.M.. I took a fourth of a head of Foxy iceberg lettuce, and I ripped it up into small pieces in a large soup bowl with two sliced tomatoes. I seasoned it with ground black pepper, Italian spices, celery salt, garlic powder, McCormick southwest Salad Toppins, a quarter cup of grated parmesan and Romano cheese, and I put www.kraft.com Zesty Italian dressing on it and Ken's blue cheese dressing. I ate it with a deli sliced turkey and Swiss cheese sandwich on toasted 15 grain bread with Hellmann's olive oil mayonnaise and a dill pickle slice and Lays jalapeño kettle potato chips and a 12 ounce glass of Schweppes Ginger Ale. I will now take a nap. CIO
<888> 05/11/15 Monday 1:20 P.M.. I chatted with neighbors. I gave a neighbor a ride to the Greenwich Hospital. I went by www.cvs.com on Greenwich Avenue, and I picked up a prescription. I bought four 7 ounce CVS sensitive skin shaving gel for $2.99 each less $4 off with a CVS coupon machine coupon and .51 tax for $8.47 total. I paid 25 cents to park. I then drove further downtown. I used the bathroom at the Senior and the Arts building. I walked the entire length of Greenwich Avenue and the train station area. I sat out at various locations. I bought an Ace's High scratch card for a dollar at the Greenwich Cigar Store, and I won another free scratch card that I lost on. I stopped by the www.apple.com store on Greenwich Avenue, and I chatted with a sales associate. I chatted with another early morning person. I stopped by the https://www.greenwichhardware.com/index.php to cool off a bit. I stopped by the www.chase.com bank on the north side of Saks Fifth Avenue, and I got $2 in parking meter quarters. I told them about the bad lighting on the night time lights on the ATM machine keypad at the Deerfield Road branch. My favorite painting in the art show on Greenwich Avenue is in the right window of Brooks Brothers, and it is of Tod's Point. It is $2,400. I stopped by and told them that. I chatted with a customer outside the Greenwich Avenue http://www.casablancapolo.com/america/home/ store where sales items are up to 80% off. I stopped by and toured CVS again. They have road construction at the top of Greenwich Avenue. I was told the new Greenwich Common is going to be done in three weeks, and they are going to put sod in, so we don't have to wait for the grass to grow. I sat out for a while. I then returned home. CIO
<888> 05/11/15 Monday 9:20 A.M.. I will now go downtown to Greenwich Avenue and see if the head Indian Chief is giving away any wooden nickels. CIO
<888> 05/11/15 Monday 9:00 A.M.. I threw out the garbage. I chatted with a neighbor. I chatted with Mars Electric. Back in the 1970s, the Scottish actually ran the electric company down in Key West, Florida. The Duke of Edinburgh better known at Prince Phillip happens to be an electrician by trade. As I have said many times before in the period when I was out in www.nantucket.net , they installed a fourth generator which was a new ships turbine generator made in England. Alas the company in England was sold to the Germans, so the simple island people of Nantucket now have to go to Germany to get their generators replaced and maintained. It is basically a ship's turbine engine like they use to power large ships. For years I have wanted to take some of the old nuclear powered submarines in New London and hook up their electricity to Greenwich so we have more and cheaper electricity. The Country of France is 80 percent nuclear power. However, they were cautious and built all of their nuclear reactors on the German border away from the large population groups. Well in the old days in Nantucket, they used blue whale oil to light the lamps, but the more modern people do not know how to whale hunt. Also the vintage sidewalk clock on Greenwich Avenue in front of the Christian Science Center is not working, and it stuck at around 9:30. There is an individual in Hartford, Connecticut that know how to fix it. I think in the old days, the used the valuable oil from a gland on a blue whale for lubrications of watch and clock mechanisms. CIO

Besides being the 70th Anniversary of Victory Day in Russia, today is my 65th birthday; so I had most of Greenwich Avenue to myself during the early morning walk viewing the art in some of the shop windows. I liked the picture of Tod's Point which is in the window just south of Hoaglands across from St. Mary's. CIO
<888> 05/09/15 Saturday 9:05 A.M.. I threw out the garbage. I went by the ATM machine at the Deerfield Road www.chase.com branch. The keys on the front ATM machine at the Chase Bank on Deerfield Drive are not fully lighted up at night. The enter key is in the upper right corner. I also saw in the front coffee room, the like using Joy dish washing detergent. I then went downtown, and I walked the entire length of Greenwich Avenue and the train station area. I sat out at various locations. I used the bathroom at www.starbucks.com . After I finished my walk, I sat out for a while enjoying the tulips in full bloom. I then walked over to Zen Stationary, and I bought an Ace's High scratch card for a dollar, but I lost. I then drove over to CVS on Greenwich Avenue, and I bought two 1 liter bottles of Listerine Total Care Zero mouth wash for $7.49 each less 30% off with a CVS mail coupon for $4.50 off and .67 tax for $11.15 total. I then bought a 16 double roll bundle of Charmin extra strong toilet paper for $9.99 less $5 off with a Bonus Bucks coupon from the previous purchase and .32 tax for $5.31 total. I then sat out for a while in the little vest pocket park across the street from CVS. I then went by the Stop and Shop. I bought a chunk of Norwegian Jarlsberg cheese for $6.99 a pound for $10.69, two 13 ounce Marie Callender steak bits and roasted potatoes for $2 each, two 8 ounce Perdue grilled chicken breast strips for $3 each, bananas for .49 a pound for $1.60, and a head of Cello iceberg lettuce for $1.49 for $23.78 total. I then bought two 9 ounce Nabisco Triscuits balsamic vinegar and basil for $1.99 each for $3.98 total. I then returned back home. I chatted with a neighbor. I carried up my groceries and other purchases, and I put them away. CIO
<888> 05/09/15 Saturday 3:10 A.M.. I woke up at 1:15 A.M.. I ate breakfast of oatmeal with honey and milk and a sliced banana, a toasted English muffin with olive oil, a glass of 50% punch and 50% cold filtered water with vitamins and supplements, and a cup of coffee with Splenda sweetener and milk. I made my bed. I will now shower and clean up. I will then go downtown to do an errand. CIO
<888> 05/08/15 Friday 3:15 P.M.. I chatted with a relative. I sat outside, and I chatted with neighbors. I picked up the mail. I will now shut down the primary work computer. I will eat a blueberry muffin. I will then go to bed. CIO

<888> 05/08/15 Friday 1:30 P.M.. When I was just outside a little while ago, I saw a large all black http://www.maine-coon-cat-nation.com/black-maine-coon-cat.html cross our parking lot. It was large enough that it startled the neighbors. CIO
<888> 05/08/15 Friday 12:55 P.M.. I chatted with a friend. In another month when the local youth get out of the local schools, the whole town changes for the summer, while the younger people pursue their summer routines. Of course a lot of families go away for the summer, and we have the added benefit of getting quite a few tourists coming our way to explore our over advertised high end real estate area. Alas most people just buy a cup of coffee at www.starbucks.com on Greenwich Avenue and keep traveling up the highway to points further north. They sell Green Mountain coffee in Kennebunkport, Maine http://scott-mike.com/137.htm . However, it is only 50 degrees Fahrenheit at the beach in Kennebunk, Maine at the moment http://www.kennebunkportbeachwebcam.com/ ; so possibly only the locals are around at the moment. http://www.franciscanguesthouse.com/franciscan-maine-monastery.html is about the cheapest place to stay near the beach. Also one does not need beach parking permits this time of year, and one can walk their dogs on the beach. Of course for New England hermits, there is always http://nantucket.net/ . Alas they no longer have a commercial fishing ice house there anymore, so one does not get the great adventure of shucking sea scallops. CIO
<888> 05/08/15 Friday 12:15 P.M.. I woke up at 11:30 A.M.. I went outside, and I chatted with neighbors. I walked around the building. CIO
<888> 05/08/15 Friday 9:45 A.M.. I did some routine computer work. I went outside, and I chatted with the building custodian, and I sat outside for a while. I chatted with a neighbor. I called the Greenwich Housing Authority at 1-203-869-1138, and they are going to send me a copy of the no smoking letter. I took a fourth of a head of Foxy iceberg lettuce, and I ripped it up into small pieces in a large soup bowl with two sliced plum tomatoes. I seasoned it with ground black pepper, Italian spices, celery salt, garlic powder, McCormick southwest Salad Toppins, a quarter cup of grated parmesan and Romano cheese, and I put www.kraft.com Zesty Italian dressing on it and extra virgin olive oil and Monari basalmic vingear. I ate it with a 12 ounce glass of Schweppes Ginger Ale. I will now take a nap. CIO
<888> 05/08/15 Friday 5:55 A.M.. I chatted with neighbors. I sat outside for a while. I threw out the garbage. Two of my neighbors told me they received notices from the Greenwich Housing Authority as of January 1, 2016; no one can smoke in the building. I did not receive such a notice, so I will call them up at 1-203-869-1138 later today to see if they can send me such a notice. Since I am getting older turning 65 years old on May 9, 2015; I had planned to quit smoking cigarettes anyway. It can be costly to buy the nicotine patches though, so I will have to adjust my budget. I will probably try to quit smoking after I get back from Kennebunkport, Maine in September 2015. However, one of my psychiatrists claims that smoking reduces stress, so when ever I quit smoking, I will have to try to lead a stress free life by staying away from busy areas like downtown Greenwich Avenue which can be very stressful at times. Unfortunately from past experiences in the past, when I have tried to quit smoking cigarettes, other disasters have occurred in the area. I was even trying to quit smoking on "911". CIO
<888> 05/08/15 Friday 3:55 A.M.. Before going to bed, I was called up by a veterans group from Bloomfield Hills, Michigan. I chatted with them a bit. I then went downstairs, and I helped a neighbor move some plants into his apartment. I sat outside briefly. I went to bed about 3:30 P.M.. I woke up at 8:30 P.M., and I picked up the mail. I chatted with a relative. I went back to bed, and I woke up at 2:15 A.M.. I ate breakfast of oatmeal with honey and milk and a sliced banana, a toasted English muffin with olive oil, a glass of 50% punch and 50% cold filtered water with vitamins and supplements, and a cup of coffee with Splenda sweetener and milk. I made my bed. I will now shower and clean up. CIO
<888> 05/07/15 Thursday 2:05 P.M.. I sat outside chatting with neighbors. I moved the Volvo wagon to its usual place. I will now shut down the primary work computer. I will eat a blueberry muffin. I will then go to bed. CIO

<888> 05/07/15 Thursday 9:55 A.M.. I threw out the garbage. I drove over to www.walgreens.com in Old Greenwich. I bought a 16 roll bundle of Scott toilet paper for $4.99, four 5 packs of Bic Lighters for $3.50 each five pack, six 8 ounce Nice! blue toilet tank cleaners for $2.99 each and $2.35 tax for $39.28 total. I then drove back to the central downtown Greenwich Avenue area. I walked the entire length of Greenwich Avenue and the train station area. I sat out at various locations. The tulips downtown are in full bloom, but there are not as many as there once were. I used the bathroom at Starbucks. I stopped by www.cvs.com , and I bought a four pack of CVS 9 volt alkaline batteries for $11.99 less a $3 off with a CVS coupon machine coupon and .57 tax for $9.56 total. I then bought a 34.5 ounce Folgers Country Blend ground coffee for $5.99. I then finished my walk, and I sat out a bit. I went by Zen Stationary, and I bought an Ace's High scratch card for a dollar, but I lost. I then returned back to CVS, and I bought four 12 packs of 12 ounce cans of Schweppes Ginger Ale for $3.50 each 12 pack and $2.40 can deposit for $16.40 total. I then went by the A&P Fresh. I bought a 1.75 quart container of Friendly Fudge Swirl ice cream for $2.50, a 26 ounce Marie Callender Bakes beef meal for $4.99, two 21 ounce Bird's Eye Chicken Voila meals for $3.99, two packages of reduced plum tomatoes for $1.08 and .92 and 60 cents can return for $20.86 total. I noticed a customer advertising Scottish National Champions, so there might be other Scottish in the area. I then returned home. I used my little folding cart to bring up the Ginger Ale. I then put the cart back in the rear of the Volvo Wagon. I then brought up my other groceries and purchases. I then put them all away. CIO
<888> 05/07/15 Thursday 4:10 A.M.. I woke up at 1:30 A.M.. From what I can tell, the electricity here was off from about 4 P.M. to 7:30 P.M.. I reset some clocks. I ate breakfast of oatmeal with honey and milk and a sliced banana, a toasted English muffin with olive oil, a glass of 50% punch and 50% cold filtered water with vitamins and supplements, and a cup of coffee with Splenda sweetener and milk. I made my bed. I will now shower and clean up. I will then go downtown to check out the local turf. CIO
<888> 05/06/15 Wednesday 3:40 P.M.. I chatted with two friends. I ate 10 ounces of pizza rolls with a 12 ounce glass of Schweppes Ginger Ale. I will now shut down the primary work computer, and I will go to bed. CIO
<888> 05/06/15 Wednesday 2:25 P.M.. I sat outside for a while enjoying an overcast day. I chatted with neighbors. I picked up the mail. CIO
<888> 05/06/15 Wednesday 1:25 P.M.. I setup the Roku device in the kitchen with the new wireless network. I chatted with a relative. I ate a bag of microwave popcorn. People from the Midwest eat a lot popcorn, since it is very plentiful out in that neck of the corn belt. Alas the under privileged people back east whom have not experienced the vastness of the American Midwest with all of its remote security and peaceful atmosphere compared to the busyness of the coastal areas of America. In many places in the Midwest, it looks like time has stood still for decades and they are more traditional. They still have the old fashioned American outlook and values that the fast moving people back east seem to have forgotten. Since the media people tend to be located on both coasts, they frequently forget the Heartland of America as if it were another planet in some other universe. Alas there are taxpayers in the middle of the country that frequently like exercising their viewpoint compared the media oligarchs of the coastal areas of America. CIO
<888> 05/06/15 Wednesday 12:15 P.M.. I setup the new wireless on the Roku device in the living room. For some reason the JBL headset microphone does not work on the Windows 8.1 GoPhone, so I disconnected it. I went out, and I said "Good Morning" to the building custodian. I sat outside for a while. I walked around the building. I checked out the big boulders in the back yard, but they do not show any archeological remains that I can tell. We have a nice view of the Byram River and the nearby village of Port Chester. A lot of the movers and shakers in the town of Greenwich can be seen shopping in Port Chester at places like www.costco.com and www.homedepot.com . For the more economically affluent people they probably have expensive houses to maintain. Beside my own wireless network, my wireless devices show two Optimum Hotspots, so possibly it is because in the setup, one splits the signal into 2.8 GHz and 5.6 GHz. Alas none of my deja vue acquaintances downtown do not seem interested in seeing me, so I guess fat people are not welcome downtown. Of course to the tiny people downtown, I have to remind you that fat individuals or large individuals might know other people of the same size, but they do not shop at women's stores on Greenwich Avenue.

<888> 05/06/15 Wednesday 6:55 A.M.. I took a fourth of a head of Foxy iceberg lettuce, and I ripped it up into small pieces in a large soup bowl with one sliced plum tomatoes. I seasoned it with ground black pepper, Italian spices, celery salt, garlic powder, McCormick southwest Salad Toppins, a quarter cup of grated parmesan and Romano cheese, and I put www.kraft.com Zesty Italian dressing on it and extra virgin olive oil and Monari basalmic vingear. I ate it with a deli sliced turkey and Swiss cheese sandwich on toasted 15 grain bread with Hellmann's olive oil mayonnaise and a dill pickle slice and Lays jalapeño kettle potato chips and a 12 ounce glass of Schweppes Ginger Ale.

I received a notice yesterday that over the next two or three days, the Greenwich Housing Authority is going to be inspecting the smoke detectors in each apartment in my building at 71 Vinci Drive. I heard on the BBC news this morning that they are now going to start running ferry service from South Florida to Cuba and back, for anyone whom wants to go there and grow tomatoes. CIO
<888> 05/06/15 Wednesday 3:55 A.M.. I put clean linens on the bed. I showered, and I cleaned up. I started two loads of laundry that I have 10 minutes to go on. I threw out the garbage and the old periodical literature. I watered the plants. CIO
<888> 05/06/15 Wednesday 2:25 A.M.. I ate breakfast of oatmeal with honey and milk and a sliced banana, a toasted English muffin with olive oil, a glass of 50% punch and 50% cold filtered water with vitamins and supplements, and a cup of coffee with Splenda sweetener and milk. CIO
<888> 05/06/15 Wednesday 1:10 A.M.. I ate two slices of deli sliced Swiss cheese and two slices of deli sliced ham. I woke up at 12:30 A.M.. CIO

<888> 05/05/15 Tuesday 5:10 P.M.. I connected up the primary work computer and the Dell Optiplex 740 mini tower to the LAN ports on the Dynex Wireless Router. Thus I get 108 mbps download and 40 mbps upload. I also moved the Dynex Wireless Router to the back top of the FIC server placed behind the Brother laser printer, so the Dynex Wireless Router has a clear view of the living room windows in case I am providing an Optimum Wireless Hot Spot. CIO
<888> 05/05/15 Tuesday 4:40 P.M.. I hooked up the TrendNet Router and the three switches to the power cable from the Net Switch on the primary work computer control panel. I will leave the Optimum Dynex Router going all of the time, since I think besides providing WiFi, it also provides and Optimum WiFi Hot Spot. However, I have it in the extreme southwest corner of the living room on the speaker stack above the Minolta PagePro laser printer, so I am not sure what its range is. My Netgear WiFi with Netgear WiFi extender is near the living room windows, but I don't leave that on all of the time. CIO
<888> 05/05/15 Tuesday 4:05 P.M.. I can not fall asleep. I have been cat napping through out the day. I chatted with a relative and two friends. I ate two ounces of mixed nut, two slices of deli ham with two slices of deli Swiss cheese, and a blueberry muffin and cold filtered. It is plenty cool in the apartment about 70 degrees Fahrenheit with the sun shining on my four large west facing windows. About 2:30 P.M., the order with tracking of https://www.fedex.com/apps/fedextrack/?action=track&ascend_header=1&cntry_code=us&language=english&mps=y&action=track&tracknumbers=597210973155817 was delivered the free Dynex wireless router from Optimum. I set it up as the first router with the TrendNet router with print server as the second router and the three switches connected to the TrendNet Router, so I can use the TrendNet USB Printer Server. Both routers turn on with the Router switch on the primary work computer control panel. The Dynex Router has a USB port, but I have not read its detailed instructions yet to know what it is for. The Hindu from Jupiter, Florida called me up a few times trying to fix my computer. I finally told him I did not own a computer, and when he called back again, I would only speak French, which got rid of the nuisance. CIO
<888> 05/05/15 Tuesday 7:30 A.M.. I sat outside for a while enjoying the morning. I chatted with a neighbor. I walked around the building. I chatted with the two electricians from Mars Electric. I will now shut down the primary work computer. I will then go to bed. CIO

<888> 05/05/15 Tuesday 4:25 A.M.. My https://www.eversource.com/ bill for April 2015 was $151.79 for 697 kWh for 21.78 kWh per day over 32 days with an average temperature of 51 degrees Fahrenheit. For April 2014, it was $130.97 for 727 kWh for 23.45 kWh per day over 31 days with an average temperature of 49.5 degrees Fahrenheit. With the air conditioners going, the living room has gone down from 80 degrees Fahrenheit to 74 degrees Fahrenheit, and I will cool it down even more, because when the westerly afternoon sun hits my windows, it can warm up the apartment quite a bit. CIO
<888> 05/05/15 Tuesday 3:30 A.M.. I installed the air conditioners in the bedroom and the living room along with the various fans I keep going to blow the cool air around in the warmer time of the year. Thus that major chore is all done. It will take a while to cool down the living room. I do not used the living room lights in the warmer time of year, since they put out quite a bit of heat. I just use low light. I also cleaned the air conditioner filters. I also put in new alkaline batteries in the two weather station sensors outside the living room window. I will now shower and clean up, after I put my little folding cart back in the rear of the Volvo wagon. I used it to move the bedroom air conditioner around the apartment. CIO
<888> 05/04/15 Monday 11:15 P.M.. I ate breakfast of oatmeal with honey and milk and a sliced banana, a toasted English muffin with olive oil, a glass of 50% punch and 50% cold filtered water with vitamins and supplements, and a cup of coffee with Splenda sweetener and milk. I made my bed.

<888> 05/04/15 Monday 4:50 A.M.. I connected up the Lexmark E238 laser printer to the primary work computer using the TrendNet Router USB print server. CIO
<888> 05/04/15 Monday 4:30 A.M.. I chatted some more with www.cablevision.com twice at 1-203-348-9211. Since I am paying for Optimum 100, I thought I should be getting higher internet speeds. They had me plug my primary internet computer directly into the Cable Modem an at www.speakeasy.net , I got 104 mbps download and 35 mbps upload. I chatted with them about Windows 10. I then removed the Dynex router from my internet setup as the first router, and I plugged its cables into the TrendNet TW100-BRF114U router with USB print server. I then connected the removed cables from the TrendNet router to a new Rosewill 8 port 10/100 switch which turns on with the router switch on the control panels of the primary work computer setup. The cables from the Rosewill switch go into the 16 port and 8 port Netgear switches. I now get 94.75 mbps download and 41 mbps second upload on both the primary computer plugged into the TrendNet Router and the Dell Optiplex 740 mini tower plugged into the 16 port Netgear Switch. Thus all devices on my network should be going at those speeds now. CIO
<888> 05/04/15 Monday 1:50 A.M.. I chatted with www.cablevision.com twice at 1-203-348-9211, and they told me in my current package I have Optimum 101, but my current setup only supports 50 mbps. They are going to send me their free wireless router that supports 100 mbps, so I can set it up as the first router in my network and have higher speed wireless and a few devices working faster. I could buy another faster wireless net switch or router to hook up to it, but I am not sure which computers support 100 mbps, and also my older TrendNet TW 100-BRF114U router in the setup is necessary since it has a print server connected to the Lexmark E238 laser printer. What is strange about the internet is that nobody communicates except for people trying to sell something else in high tech. CIO
<888> 05/03/15 Sunday 11:55 P.M.. I have had five no person telephone calls today. I turned off both apartment thermostats. It is still too cool out to put in the two air conditioners. The bedroom air conditioner is quite a complicated process, since I have to move a lot of items around. I have not met any strong individuals to help me out with that chore whom are willing to help out for free. It usually takes me three hours to install them, but I think it is still to cool out. After the long cold winter, I am enjoying the warmer apartment.
Connecticut Fishing Licenses http://www.ct.gov/deep/cwp/view.asp?a=2696&q=322716&deepNav_GID=1630 . I chatted with http://www.thedelamar.com/ to see what was going on down by the waterfront. CIO
<888> 05/03/15 Sunday 11:25 P.M.. I threw out the garbage. It is the third night in the row of a full moon. The full moon is suppose to be a good time for fishing, so maybe there are some diehard fisherman down by the waterfront fishing on Steamboat Road, or where ever they try their luck. I am not sure if the striped bass are running this early. Since it was a colder winter, and is still cool this time of year, the striped bass might not be running yet. I no longer drive frequently down by the waterfront on Steamboat Road, since it is too expensive. The long time observer there in the grey pickup truck told me he was going to move to TexArkansas over a year ago, so I am not sure if he is still in the area or has moved. I know the individual if he is still alive is high tech and has family in the area, so maybe some of his younger relatives have taken over his position on the waterfront. CIO
