<888> 09/29/14 Monday 6:35 A.M.  I installed the Microsoft Surface Pack on the Windows 7 partition on the IBM ThinkCentre along side the Ethan Allen recliner, and Global Surface works just fine with the touch screen.  However, the Surface Park will not install on the Windows 8.1 partition, but Bing Maps in the Windows 8.1 Store is pretty much the same as Microsoft Surface.  I installed 15 more applications on the Windows 8.1 partition.  I have not really used Microsoft 8.1 very much, so I am not that familiar with the user interface, but the IBM ThinkCentre is quite a bit faster than the primary work computer.  However, I used the primary work computer the most, since it has the two additional internal backup drives, besides the primary drive.  I ate 4 ounces of smoked almonds and a 12 ounce glass of 50% punch and 50% Schweppes Ginger Ale.  I will now shut down the primary work computer.  I will then go to bed.  CIO

<888> 09/29/14 Monday 3:45 A.M.   To test out the touch screen monitor on the IBM ThinkCentre with Windows 8.1 along side the Ethan Allen recliner, I put Simple Solitaire game on it, but the mouse is faster than the touch screen method.  In the old days of Microsoft Windows 3, whenever one went into the CompUSA computer store about 20 years ago, everyone was always playing the Solitaire game on it, so not much has changed in the last 20 years except we have all gotten older.  They also use touch screen monitors on display cash registers in bars and restaurants.

I bought three 12 packs of 12 ounce cans of Canada Dry Ginger Ale for $11 and $1.80 can deposit for $12.80 total.  I then bought two 55 ounce Clorox bleach for $2 each and four 45 ounce Xtra 2X scented liquid detergent for $1.44 each and .62 tax for $10.38 total.  I then went further downtown, and I chatted with a relative on my wireless telephone.  I then said hello to a regular at Starbucks.  I then walked then entire length of Greenwich Avenue and the train station area.  I sat out at various locations.  Both frozen yogurt stands on lower Greenwich Avenue are opened late at night as is the new juice bar at the People's Bank building with interesting sandwiches for about $7.99.  On the way up Greenwich Avenue, I stopped by CVS again, and I used the bathroom.  I bought a red Pioneer 100 magnetic sheet photograph album for $13.19 less 25% with a CVS internet coupon for $3.30 off and .63 tax for $10.52 total.  The Makerbot 3D printer store is looking for help.  I then sat out for a while enjoying the quiet evening.  I then went by the Stop and Shop.  I bought a 42 ounce Quaker Old Fashioned oatmeal for $4.36, two sweet potatoes for .99 a pound for $1.56, a 12 ounce Perdue chicken cutlet for $1.99, a four pack of fresh blueberry muffins for $2.99, and a 24 ounce rotisserie turkey breast for $7.99 for $18.89 total.  I chatted with the Starbucks regular again.  I then returned home.  I used my little folding cart from the rear of the Volvo wagon to bring up the ginger ale.  I then brought down my other folding cart and returned to the smaller folding cart to the rear of the Volvo wagon, and I used the larger folding cart to bring up my other purchases.  I then put my groceries away.  CIO

<888> 09/28/14 Sunday 6:40 A.M.  I ate four ounces of almonds and a 12 ounce glass of 50% Schweppes Ginger Ale and 50% punch.  There are some huge people that I frequently see in this area.  Since I am one of the smaller people at 6 feet tall and 230 pounds, I tend to chat and network with the smaller people my size.  I am not sure what the huge people do, but I guess since they can afford to live and feed themselves here, they must do something in a productive manner.  Up in Maine, the people are even larger.  In the grocery stores in Maine, the potatoes are half the size of a football.  Thus the smaller office types like myself whom work with keyboards and computers, tend to only network with people our size or slightly smaller, since the people can get much larger and intimidating in this area for better or worse.  When I first started working with home computers 24 years ago, I met a software engineer who was about six feet tall and eight hundred pounds.  When I used to go the old Greenwich Hospital Thrift shop, there was a regular customer who was over 7 feet tall and over 500 pounds.  When I went to the Microsoft conference out on Long Island about seven years ago, there was a man who was six feet tall and about six feet wide.  These large people I mention are all northern European white people.  Of course out the Midwest of America where there is heavy industry, there are millions of people that size compared to the smaller office workers in the New York City area.  When I have been up in Canada, the people are even larger.  CIO

<888> 09/27/14 Saturday 5:10 P.M.  I chatted with a relative.  I will now shower and clean up.  There is no point going downtown to watch our more affluent resident dining out.  I think I will stay home and slave away on my home computer network to see I can come up with some sort of new perspective, since after all I know something about personal computers versus hedge funds and politics.  CIO 

<888> 09/27/14 Saturday 3:35 P.M.  I had a telephone call from a relative at noon.  I woke up at 1:45 P.M..  I ate breakfast of oatmeal with honey and milk and 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 equal sweetener and milk.  I made my bed.  CIO

<888> 09/27/14 Saturday 4:45 A.M.  Having been born in Alton, Illinois on the shores of the Mississippi River, I have been covering the shores of America and the World most of my life.  Even Florence, Italy in the winter of 1972 had the Arno River, which does not look like too much, until there is rain in the Italian mountains, and then it can flood like in the http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1966_Flood_of_the_Arno_River  CIO  

<888> 09/27/14 Saturday 3:30 A.M.  One of the first things I noticed, when my family first moved to this area in June of 1962 was that I frequently used to see a British Army Colonel walking around mid Lake Avenue coming and going from the Mark Twain showboat type of house.  Thus I figured the British walk a lot and there were probably other British people in the area.  The more affluent younger people had small British sports cars such as MGs, Triumphs, Mini Coopers, Autin Healys and Morgans which supposedly never started because they had twin Solex carburetors.  There used to be a gasoline station next to the downtown fire house in Darien, Connecticut that had over 50 of the old British sports cars in their parking lot.  Up in the north country of Kennebunk, Maine; there is this place http://leylandbritish.com/ , where one can still get them repaired.  The Swedes hit back during the oil embargo of 1973 with http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volvo_P1800 which three friends of mine in Manhattan had the http://www.volvoclub.org.uk/pdf/brochures/IMP-1800ES.pdf which were fuel efficient.  I even knew somebody with a new Porsche that one did not see around too much, so I guess he was working to pay it off.  From what I know about Big City people, they dream about living in the country, but after a few boring weekends in the country, they miss the big time activity of the Big City life style, so they retreat back into their city life styles what ever that might be.  I once noticed older people in Manhattan spend a lot of time sitting on the park benches in Central Park with their health care workers.  CIO

<888> 09/27/14 Saturday 1:00 A.M.  I tested the 50 foot coaxial cable that does not work, and I finally determined that it was the kitchen end that was malfunctioning.  I was able to pull off the plug, and cut the cable to remove the bad part, and then I shoved the connector back on, and instead of trying to crimp it which would be tricky, I secured it with electrical tape.  It works clear as a bell on the Sceptre LED television in the kitchen, but since it is secured with electrical tape, it can come lose if the television is moved, which is not necessary.  However, I will use the new 50 foot coaxial cable, whenever it arrives.  I removed the 25 foot coaxial cable, and I put it underneath the bed with the other coaxial cables.  When I was reattaching the coaxial cable for the FIC sever at the splitter on the left side of the primary computer, I broke it, so I used a slightly shorter spare coaxial cable which should work just fine.  I am starting up the FIC server in a short bit.  CIO

<888> 09/25/14 Thursday 6:55 P.M.  I brought up the medium size white bookcase from the dumpster area, and I dried it off.  I removed the small dark oak table from the left side of the kitchen entrance, and I put the small white bookcase there.  I have the wooden bread box and the Rowenta four slice toaster on top of the white bookcase.  I cleaned the crumbs out of the Rowenta toaster.  I did not install the DeLonghi toaster oven underneath the Rowenta toaster, since I never use it, and it sets off the living room smoke detector.  I stored it on the far left bottom of the bedroom closet to have available.  It is still like new.  I stored some of my spare cans of food from the kitchen floor and other food items in the white bookcase at the kitchen entrance.  It all looks a lot neater and more useful.  I took the mahogany telephone table with the crooked repaired broken leg out of the bathroom, and I installed the small oak table in the bathroom with the same mix of items around it.  I put the mahogany telephone with the repaired crooked broken leg out by the dumpster.  Since I lived on Vinci Drive, I was rather amused to see empty cases of http://www.davinciwine.com/About-Us/ Chianti in the recycle bin.  I will now make cigarettes.  CIO

<888> 09/25/14 Thursday 5:05 P.M.  I threw out the garbage.  There is a white bookcase out by the dumpster, but I have no room for it.  I picked up the mail.  I got a charity letter from www.bowery.org/thanksgiving2014 .  Despite all of the wealth in Manhattan, there are still people who fall through the cracks of the social welfare network.  CIO

<888> 09/25/14 Thursday 3:15 P.M.   I woke up, and I ate four ounces of mixed nuts.  I chatted with a relative at 9 A.M..  I had two fax calls at noon.  I finally woke up at 2 P.M., and I chatted with a relative.  I ate breakfast of oatmeal with honey and milk and 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 equal sweetener and milk.  CIO

<888> 09/25/14 Thursday 3:20 A.M.  I heated and ate a 9 ounce package of five cheese hot pockets which I ate with a 12 ounce glass of Schweppes Ginger Ale.  CIO

<888> 09/25/14 Thursday 2:30 A.M.   The Seiki TV in the kitchen has not worked properly, since I returned from Maine.  I disconnected it, and I tried the Sceptre 23 inch LED television from the living room, and it still did not work properly, so it obviously was a problem with the 50 foot coaxial cable from the splitter by the stereo system in the living room.  I did not have a replacement for it, and it would be difficult to remove, since certain items have been placed on it along its path.  So I coiled it up a short length, and I put it by the floor of the white bookcase at the kitchen entrance.  I then got a spare 25 foot coaxial cable, and I disconnected the FIC server TV card cable from the splitter to the right of the primary computer keyboard, and I ran the 25 foot coaxial cable from there into the kitchen, and I left the 23 inch Sceptre LED television in the kitchen.  It has three HDMI port, so I did not need to use the HDMI switch to connect the Roku wireless player and the Sony Player.  It all works just fine, and the kitchen TV is now clear as a bell.  Of course, it only plays what is playing on the living room cable box.  I moved the 20 inch Seiki LED TV to where the Sceptre TV had been in the living room in front of the stereo system connected to the coaxial cable TV box.  It also is connected to the bedroom Cable Box via HDMI cable, but for that to work, the power control center in the bedroom has to be turned along with the HDMI switch box, so technically from the living room Ethan Allen recliner location, one can watch two different television channels off the two different televisions.  I threw out the garbage, and I picked up two of the new telephone books at the building entrance.  CIO

<888> 09/24/14 Wednesday 9:40 P.M.  I ate two cold large 1/4 inch thick slices of cold rotisserie turkey breast with Frank's hot sauce on them with a baked potato and steamed baby carrots with Oleva spread and extra virgin olive oil on the vegetables, and a sliced medium large tomato with celery salt, garlic powder, ground black pepper, Italian spices, grated parmesan and Romano cheese, and extra virgin olive oil; and a 12 ounce glass of Schweppes Ginger Ale, and a cup of green tea with Equal sweetener and Borden's lemon juice.  CIO

<888> 09/24/14 Wednesday 8:15 P.M.  I put away the clean laundry.  In the old days, not only did the Roosevelts live on East 65th Street, the Pierre Hotel owned by J. Paul Getty was there as was David Rockefeller's town house and Nelson Rockefeller's apartment nearby, as was the Warburg family town house, and the Russian consulate and Richard Nixon's town house.  Thus if one explores East 65th street in nearby Manhattan, there are probably still some wealthy people there.  However, east 70th street also has its attractions.  CIO

<888> 09/24/14 Wednesday 5:05 P.M.  I rested some more until 4:45 P.M..  I will now put clean linens on my bed.  I will then shower and clean up.  I chatted with a friend.  CIO

<888> 09/23/14 Tuesday 10:40 P.M.  I went downtown, and I went by the A&P Fresh.  I bought two sweet potatoes for $1.29 a pound and 55 cents can return for $1.28 total.  I then went by CVS on Greenwich Avenue.  I bought a white 12 foot extension cord for $6.79 and .43 tax for $7.22 total.  I then sat out for a brief spell downtown.  I then went by the Putnam Shell at 401 West Putnam Avenue, and I bought $8.01 of self service premium V-Power gasoline for $4.179 a gallon with a dime a gallon off with my Stop and Shop card for 1.916 gallons at odometer reading of 109748 miles for 28.1 miles driving since Sunday September 14, 2014 for 14.666 miles per gallon in local traffic.  I then returned home.  I put the 12 foot white extension cord to reach the tower fan and Panasonic cordless telephone extension plugs by the hallway closet door.  I had used the extension cord there to install the power supply on the new Hannspree monitor.  I finished installing the updates on the IBM ThinkCentre by the Ethan Allen recliner.  I shut it down.  CIO

<888> 09/23/14 Tuesday 8:25 P.M.  I ate three 1/4 inch thick slices of cold rotisserie turkey breast with Frank's hot sauce on them with a baked sweet potato and steamed baby carrots with Oleva spread and extra virgin olive oil on the vegetables, and a sliced medium large tomato with celery salt, Italian spices, grated parmesan and Romano cheese, and extra virgin olive oil; and a 12 ounce glass of Schweppes Ginger Ale, and a cup of green tea with Equal sweetener and Borden's lemon juice.  I chatted with a relative.  I am installing the Windows Updates on the IBM ThinkCentre along side the Ethan Allen recliner.  CIO

<888> 09/23/14 Tuesday 5:25 P.M.  I installed the touch screen Hannspree monitor on the left side of the IBM ThinkCentre along side the Ethan Allen recliner with the 23 inch Acer LCD monitor on the right side.  It installed the drivers plug and play, and the touch screen works just fine.  One installs the audio input from the sound card speaker jack into the audio input on the monitor and then the external speakers from the speaker jack on the monitor, so there are both external speakers and monitor speakers.  I moved the AOC 23 inch LED monitor to the IBM ThinkCentre on the dining table.  I moved the 19 inch Acer LCD monitor from there to the Abit computer.  I put the spare Eizo monitor on the floor of the bedroom closet.  For http://scott-mike.com , I bought domain protection for $9.99.  I put the Hannspree box behind the Ethan Allen recliner.  CIO

<888> 09/22/14 Monday 10:55 P.M.  I went out after the last note.  I went by CVS on Greenwich Avenue.  I bought four 17.5 ounce lightly salted deluxe mixed nuts for $6.88 each for $27.52 total.  I then sat out downtown for a brief spell.  Not much was happening.  I then drove down by the waterfront on Steamboat Road.  There is a moderate size yacht at the Delamar called the "Silver Shalis" http://www.yachtcharterfleet.com/luxury-charter-yacht-24696/silver-shalis.htm , so the waterfront still has a bit of POSH.  The new houses across from 600 Steamboat Road seem to be coming along.  I then went by the Stop and Shop.  I bought a 12 ounce generic honey for $2.50, bananas for .69 a pound for .99, four reduced produce tomatoes for $2.23, two russet potatoes for .99 a pound for $1.60, and a rotisserie turkey breast for $5.99 a pound for $8.99 less a dollar off coupon for $15.31 total.  I then returned home.  The front door of the building was opened, so I slid it back into position, so it closed.  I then put away my groceries.  CIO

<888> 09/22/14 Monday 9:00 P.M.  I chatted with a relative.  I ate a ham and American cheese sandwich on toasted 15 grain bread with Hellmann's olive oil mayonnaise and a dill pickle slice and a Lay's salt and vinegar potato chips and a 12 ounce glass of Schweppes Ginger Ale.  CIO   

<888> 09/22/14 Monday 7:50 P.M.  I woke up at 7:30 P.M..  My computer worldwide internet office at home seems to be running just fine, but not many people communicate, because I tend to be a private individual who does not have much common with other people.  Other than a few old friends on Facebook, I have not heard from anyone in my 24 years of computer activity, so I guess there is no interest in "Has Beens" from Manhattan, not that I was ever popular, when I used to explore the nearby Big City.  I guess since I have a Northern European look, most people do not like seeing people with my look in Manhattan, although there are other people with Northern European looks that go there and seem to earn money, but I guess they had money to work with to begin with.  Possibly it is because I am a Senior Citizen, and the younger generation does not like seeing old people around unless they are spending wampum.  CIO

<888> 09/22/14 Monday 4:35 P.M.  I ate two ounces of wabasi and soy almonds.  I chatted with neighbors.  I checked the oil on the Volvo wagon, and I put in a third of a quart of Shell 5W-30 oil.  The current oil change is almost a year old, but it has less than 3000 miles on the current oil change, since it was changed almost a year ago.  I picked up the mail.  I will now take a nap.  CIO

<888> 09/21/14 Sunday 2:45 P.M.  I chatted with a relative.  I will now shower and clean up.  Traditionally in Greenwich, Connecticut; Sundays are a day of rest.  There is really no need to exercise walk on Greenwich Avenue, when a little bit of at home well needed rest might be useful.  Of course the week day working population usually has errands to do.  Some people still go to church, and then go home to a big Sunday dinner.  I suppose this time of year, some people are still at the beach, tennis court, golf course or out sailing.  The wealthier people seem to like to keep active as opposed to resting, so anything could be happening in this neck of the woods.  I suppose some people might still be gardening around their homes too.  CIO 

<888> 09/21/14 Sunday 1:50 P.M.   I woke up at noon.  I ate breakfast of oatmeal with honey and milk and 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 equal sweetener and milk.  I made my bed.  The Service Light came on the Volvo wagon.  It supposedly was serviced at 105000 mile, and I got it at 107000 miles a year ago, and it currently has almost 110000 miles, so possibly it needs it oil changed in the next month or two.  CIO

End of Scott's Notes week of 09/21/14

<888> 09/21/14 Sunday 2:35 A.M.  I watched off the www.pbs.org Roku device channel episode 7 of "The Roosevelts" a very old New York Dutch family.  I ate a Kaiser roll.   One does not see many Holland Dutch people around here anymore.  I have been told quite a few of them are still living in New York State up the Hudson River Valley somewhere north of us.  I did see some people whom looked like they were Dutch walking around this past Friday, but maybe it was my imagination.  Of course in February 1992 before the Albertville, France Winter Olympics, I spent four days in Amsterdam with a Dutch American friend, and since I tend to blend in with the Dutch nobody noticed me there.  It is very cold and damp in the Netherlands on the east side of the North Sea with all of the damp moisture blowing across the Atlantic Ocean their way.  I suppose since the Netherlands is not a very large country with a small population, the few Dutch people that seem to travel are pretty much lost in the larger crowd of humanity.

I ate the last four ounces of dry roasted peanuts and a 12 ounce glass of 50% punch and 50% diet Canada Dry Ginger Ale.  I will now send out my weekly notes.  I will then shut down the primary work computer, and I guess I will go to bed for the night.  Greenwich, Connecticut has always been a quiet peaceful family town without much happening out of the ordinary.  CIO   

<888> 09/20/14 Saturday 10:30 P.M.  I took the 14 ounce piece of Cod, and I rinsed it underneath cold water.  I then put it with tail end folded in a 12 inch diameter Pyrex pie dish.  I poured about a quarter of a cup of Borden's lemon juice over it.  I then seasoned it with a few dashes of Angostura Bitters, Old Bay Seasoning, celery salt, Oliva spread and dried oregano.  I then put it in the Farberware convection oven at 325 degrees Fahrenheit for 20 minutes.  I put it on a dinner plate with some of the juices on top of it.  I ate it with a baked potato and steamed baby carrots with Oleva spread and extra virgin olive oil on the vegetables, a Kaiser roll with Oleva spread, and a 12 ounce glass of Canada Dry diet Ginger Ale, and a cup of green tea with Equal sweetener and Borden's lemon juice.  CIO

<888> 09/20/14 Saturday 8:40 P.M.  I threw out the garbage.  I went downtown, and I walked the entire length of Greenwich Avenue and the train station area.  I chatted with regulars.  I was told the new frozen yogurt shop on lower Greenwich Avenue where Chili Bear used to be has their frozen yogurt self service for 59 cents an ounce.  I stopped by the Greenwich Cigar store, and I played an Ace's High scratch card for a dollar, and I won a free ticket.  I then played another Ace's High scratch card, and I won another free Ace's High scratch card.  One the third scratch card, I won $2 for a dollar profit.  I sat out at various locations.  I stopped by CVS.  I bought for 75% off a Philips HDTV passive antenna for $4.24 and .27 tax for $4.51.  While sitting at the top of Greenwich Avenue, I was asked by a pedestrian where there was a pub.  I told him about the four pubs in the area.  After my walk, I tried to use the bathroom at Starbucks, but it was busy.  I then went to the A&P Fresh.  I bought wild caught previously frozen filet of cod for $4.99 a pound for $4.09, a 5 ounce bag of Texas Toast seasoned croutons for $1.22, two sweet potatoes for $1.29 a pound for $1.46, and a Bermuda red onion for $1.99 a pound for $1.29 for $8.09 total.  While I was exiting the store on the south side by the handicap parking a large 12 foot long 5 inch diameter rotten tree limb fell off a tree on to the parking lot making a very loud noise.  There was no car parked where it fell, and nobody was underneath it.  I told the store checker about it, and he cleaned up the mess.  The person behind me in line was parked two parking places to the east of the fallen tree limb.  I then returned home.  I chatted with a neighbor.  I picked up the mail.  I put away my groceries.  I chatted with a relative.  My EBT food stamps have been raised from $164 a month to $174 a month for a net $10 increase in income.  CIO  

<888> 09/20/14 Saturday 4:05 P.M.   I called up http://www.portchesterbeer.com/ and told them they should start carrying http://www.kraftig.com .  I will now shower and clean up and go out to face the coffee crowd on Greenwich Avenue.  Of course in England, Tea Time is about 4 P.M. in the afternoon.  CIO

<888> 09/19/14 Friday 8:45 P.M.   I drove all of the way over to Greenwich Avenue.  I walked the entire length of Greenwich Avenue and the train station area.  I sat out at various locations.  I stopped by Zen Stationary, and I bought an Ace's High scratch card for a dollar, but I lost.  I chatted with the night person at the Senior and the Arts Center.   Their bathroom is opened at night upstairs on the third floor.  However, I used the bathroom at Starbucks.  I chatted with a woman from north Florida.  I chatted with two regular patrons off a 47 foot sail boat from California.  I stopped by CVS, and I bought two 12.5 ounce Kiwi and Lime conditioners for .77 each, a 12.5 ounce Kiwi and Lime shampoo for .77 and a 12.5 ounce tea therapy shampoo for .77 and 20 cents tax for $3.28 total.  I then bought two 16 ounce Blue Diamond Wabasi and soy almonds for $5.49 each for $10.98 total.  While sitting at the top of Greenwich Avenue, a middle age woman from the Washington Heights section of Manhattan asked for a dollar for train fare, which I gave the individual.  It was sort of strange, since the individual was wearing a dark navy sweater that said J.P. Morgan.  I chatted with a well dressed retired Marine in a blue blazer going to dinner.  After I finished my walk, and I sat for a while.  I then went by the Greenwich Library, and I chatted with one staff member, and I toured the lower floor.  They were having a Comedy event there in the auditorium this evening.  I then went by the Stop and Shop.  I bought a 12 ounce generic honey for $2.50, two sweet potatoes for .99 a pound for $1.88, bananas for .69 a pound for $1.79, a two pound bag of baby carrots for $2.49, buy one get one free of 8 ounce Perdue Italian short cuts of cooked chicken for $5.99 both, two 18.5 ounce Stouffer's meat lasagnas for $3 each, a six pack of Kaiser rolls for .99 each, buy one get one free of six packs of Thomas's honey wheat English muffins for $4.29 both, a four piece cooked chicken tenders for $2.04 for $28.97 total.  I then returned home.  They have put a large dark green and gold letter sign on Western Junior High saying that Vinci Drive is Equal Housing Opportunity.  I then put away my groceries.  I chatted with a relative.  I ate two handfuls of dry roasted peanuts.  CIO 

<888> 09/19/14 Friday 3:50 P.M.  I threw out the garbage.  I chatted with neighbors about the price of tea in China.  I will now dress up a bit more warmly, and then I will go out for a great adventure on Greenwich Avenue to watch all of the week day office workers return from their toils in nearby Manhattan.  CIO

<888> 09/19/14 Friday 2:40 P.M.  I will now shower and clean up.  I am installing the Windows XP updates on the primary Dell Latitude D410 laptop computer.  The restored backup seems to work a lot better.  CIO

<888> 09/19/14 Friday 2:05 P.M.  I chatted with a relative.  When I was in Kennebunkport, Maine for a month, during the first week, the Outlook email program on the Windows XP partition on the primary Dell Latitude D410 laptop got messed up and would not work properly.  I am now restoring the Paragon backup of that partition to fix the problem.  CIO

<888> 09/19/14 Friday 12:35 P.M.  I woke up at 11 A.M..  I ate breakfast of oatmeal with honey and milk and 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 equal sweetener and milk.  I made my bed.  CIO  

<888> 09/19/14 Friday 1:30 A.M.  I watched Episode 5 of the "The Roosevelt Family" off the www.pbs.org channel of the Roku device.  I will now shut down the primary work computer.  I will eat a muffin, and then I will go to bed.  I seemed to have caught up on most of my routines after returning home this past Sunday, so maybe later on today, when I finally wake up, I might venture out for a walk on Green Witch Avenue.

<888> 09/16/14 Tuesday 11:25 P.M.  I chatted with a relative.  I watched the third episode on PBS on the series on the Roosevelt family.   There are suppose to be a lot of Roosevelt family members in this country after all of the years here.  I ate a Jamaican Jerk rotisserie chicken leg, thigh, two wings, and two 1/4 inch thick slices of breast meat with Frank's hot sauce, a baked potato and steamed baby carrots with Smart Balance spread and extra virgin olive oil on the vegetables, a 12 ounce glass of Canada Dry diet Ginger Ale, and a cup of green tea with Equal sweetener and Borden's lemon juice.  The baby carrots are now smaller, so one does not have to cut them into quarters lengthwise.  On the medium large baked potato that I paid a dollar apiece for, I scrubbed it underneath cold water with a potato brush, and then I poked a fork into it about a dozen times all around.  I microwaved it for seven minutes in the microwave oven, since it was larger.  On the matter of Scottish separation from England coming from a Scottish American exile family for 290 years, I am not sure how it will effect the Scott family in America.  I suppose with the Scottish being part of England for 300 years, it has made it possible for the British with their large trade network to export a lot of Scotch whisky around the world.  Thus without the British, there might be more Scotch whisky left in Scotland for the locals to enjoy instead of sending out all around the world.  Not many people from Scotland have ever networked with me, since I am also half Dutch American, since my mother is 100% Dutch American.  Of course Western Europe with a half billion people which geographically is not too large of an area, I imagine over the years, a lot of the Europeans have moved around between countries, and not bothered to cross the Atlantic Ocean in this direction.  CIO

<888> 09/15/14 Monday 10:45 P.M.   I watched the second episode on PBS about the Roosevelt family.  The Roosevelt family is apparently from Manhattan, but they advertise their summer homes in Oyster Bay, Long Island http://www.nps.gov/sahi/index.htm and Hyde Park, New York http://www.nps.gov/hofr/index.htm .  When the Bank of New York bought Putnam Trust here in Greenwich, I happened to have recently bought a book for $10 at the Greenwich Hospital Thrift Shop on the 150th anniversary of the Bank of New York.  I gave it to the head office at Putnam Trust.  In the book written about 1927, it said that although the Bank of New York was started by Alexander Hamilton, it was with Elihu Roosevelt's money.  Thus the Roosevelt's probably had a bit of money.  I also have read that they were invested in coal mines in upstate New York and Steam Ships on the Ohio River.  They also have a lot of pictures of old clipper ships in the Living Room at Hyde Park, so they were probably invested in the shipping business also.  I once read that the original Roosevelt in this country was a pirate in hid out in upstate New York as a dairy farmer.  Franklin Roosevelt use to list his profession as a apple farmer.  Their houses in Hyde Park and Oyster Bay are near another prominent Dutch family called the Vanderbilt's, so they might have had business connections together.  I once toured Sagamore Hill, when I was living in Port Washington, Long Island around 1979.  I also toured Hyde Park about 25 years ago.  Franklin and Eleanor's grave is there underneath a large piece of white Vermont marble.  Helen Kress Williams was a neighbor in Oyster Bay, and she knew Alice Blue Gown.  Professor Hanke at www.lfc.edu used to lecture on Teddie Roosevelt all of the time.  I took two of his courses.  I ate six ounces of mixed nuts and three slices of provolone cheese.  CIO
