Note: <888> 11/18/11 Friday 11:55 P.M.  I turned on the heat in the living room to warm it up a bit.  Not much ever happens here in Greenwich, Connecticut except a lot of traffic.  Once all of the traffic coming and going from the big City moves out of this area, it tends to be fairly quiet around here.  We have a large senior population whom enjoying playing the card game Bridge at home.  They do not go out as much as the younger generation whom seem to be on expense accounts all of the time.  I guess their employers would prefer them to work longer hours instead of cooking and shopping.  In my particular case, more than likely a lot of my former associates have moved out of the area, once they retired.  There are places that are less expensive and more enjoyable for retirement.  I visited a number of those places in my youth, and since I can not afford to retire elsewhere, I will probably be living here for a long time.  It is not as peaceful as Nantucket, but for a senior it offers more services.  Key West would be too busy for retirement, since it has a busy tourist population year round.  There are quieter places in Florida such as Vero Beach, Florida, where I have relatives and friends that live there, but I can not afford that either.  Also once one starts going south for the winter, it is hard to ever come back up north to live.  Actually one spend so much time inside during the winter here, it can be quite relaxing and comfortable, providing that one keeps busy.  I guess once it gets colder, people do not exercise walk as much.  However, if one dresses for cold weather with multiple layers of clothing and a warm hat or cap, it can be quite enjoyable to be outside.  I am always amused that when I am all bundled up against the cold, the younger generation seems to go outside in their house clothes and not even notice the cold.  Well, I will now shut down the primary work computer, and I will go to bed soon.  CIO 

Note: <888> 11/18/11 Friday 10:55 P.M.  After my meal, I ate an apple.  I have known for over 25 years that Saudi Arabia has a consular residence up on North Street in Greenwich, Connecticut.  Today I was told that Israel has a consular residence nearby in Port Chester, New York.  Thus I guess they have their staffs and intelligence agencies working this area.  I wander what other consular residences are in this area.  We have a large international population here, so more than likely there are other ones in the area, besides the business community.  CIO

Note: <888> 11/18/11 Friday 9:55 P.M.  I went downtown, and I walked the entire length of Greenwich Avenue and the train station area.  I used the bathroom at Starbucks before and after my walk.  I stopped by CVS during my walk, and I picked up a prescription.  I bought a 7 ounce CVS extra mild gel shave cream for $2.29 and .15 tax for $2.44 total.  After my walk, I chatted with a relative on my wireless telephone.  I then walked the lower Greenwich Avenue area again.  I also stopped by Zen Stationary twice.  After my walk, I went by the Greenwich Library, and I checked out "The King's Speech" DVD.  It has to be returned by the Saturday after Thanksgiving.  I then went to the Stop and Shop, and I bought a five pound box of Clementines from Spain for $4.99, a four pack of day old muffins for $2.25, a 1.5 quart container of Turkey Hill butter pecan ice cream for $2.50 for $9.74 total.  I then returned home, and I put away my purchases.

Note: <888> 11/18/11 Friday 1:50 P.M.  I noticed last night, when I was downtown, they were playing Christmas music at www.cvs.com .  I also noticed that they have strung small white Italian lights on the street lamps on Greenwich Avenue.   Thus we seem to be in the Holiday Season. 

I put my little two foot artifical Christmas tree on a brass tray on top of the Samsung color laser printer at the apartment entrance, and I hung my artificial wreath on on the outside of the front door.  The Christmas tree lights turn on with the power control strip switch beneath it.  I also hung the small little burlap wreath on the left living room closet.  When I first moved in here, all I had was the simple small burlap wreath, so it is sort of a bit of nostalgia.  Thus I now have my Christmas decoration on display.  I will have to move the Christmas tree off the color laser printer temporarily, when I print out my Christmas letters in two to three weeks.  I have limited funds until the end of the month, so I might have to curtail some of my "People Watching" downtown.  CIO

Note: <888> 11/13/11 Sunday 2:40 A.M.  After the last note, I stayed awake.  I hooked up the princess phone from the bathroom to the Arris cable modem.  I then called Optimum Voice Tech support, and they put me through to an expert technical person.  I suggested they change the phone jack on the cable modem from jack 2 to jack 1.   They decided to do that which takes a while.  After about a half hour, the Optimum Voice telephone started working on jack 1.  I called them up to thank them for the help, and I cancelled the Cablevision Technical visit for this Monday.

However, when I connected up the Optimum Voice telephone network cable, the Verizon phone line quit working.  Usually on two line phone systems, when one of the lines quits working, but when it works when the other line is not connected, it means one of the two line phones are defective.  I checked all of my two line phone, and the V-Tech two line cordless phone on the Danish bar was the defective one.  I removed it and put it underneath the bed.  Now both the Verizon and Optimum Voice telephone line networks all work just fine.

It shows Greenwich, Connecticut is at the edge of the tropics and we are a bit warmer than the rest of the state because of Long Island Sound and the heat that blows our way from New York City.

Well, in the economically depressed area of Greenwich, Connecticut it is better to stay home and save money and conserve energy instead of walking around on Rodeo Drive East.  We get lots of people out here thinking we have more money than New York City which is not necessarily the case.  People think that, since we have more acreage around us, but in reality we are simply further out in the country better known as the Sticks, so I guess we are "Hicks from the Sticks".  However, we enjoy our environmentally friendly atmosphere compared to the congestion of Manhattan, since it is terribly expensive to go into Manhattan just to walk around in circles without any purpose.  Of course the Manhattan media constantly bombard us with their presence on our communications media.  Maybe we should have a Greenwich, Connecticut television station with the simple pleasures of gardening, bird watching, exercise walking, contemplation of nature, people watching, reading, being thrifty, dealing with nature, frugal cooking, and being politically neutral.  We should be more like Greenwich, Switzerland, since it would be better for the local economy, particularly since over half the local population are non voting foreign residents whom do not pay much attention to local politics.  CIO

After the last note, I threw out the garbage.  I went downtown, and I went by the Chase Bank at 19 West Putnam Avenue.  I then mailed the Microsoft Money 2007 income versus spending report for October 2011 to an interested relative at the central Greenwich Post Office.  I then went to my 11 A.M. appointment.  I next went downtown, and I walked lower Greenwich Avenue, and I went by the Apple Computer store, and I looked at one of their large desktop systems.  I then walked down towards the train station.  I chatted with a tourist taking pictures with a Canon telephoto camera, and I walked him down by the waterfront on Steamboat Road, and I showed him the waterfront on the pier on Steamboat Road.  The tourist was Greek from Santa Monica, California.  I told him it was the Greenwich version of the Santa Monica pier for fishing.  I then walked the tourist back to Meli Meli, where he went to lunch.  I then walked upper Greenwich Avenue, and I stopped by CVS, and I toured the store.  I chatted with a local person that told me that this FEMA: FEMA, FCC Announce Nationwide Test Of The Emergency Alert System was going to happen next week on Wednesday November 9, 2011 at 2 P.M. EST.  I then finished my walk on Greenwich Avenue.  I went by the Chase Bank just south of the Greenwich Post Office.  I sat out for a while.  They had chairs set out for some event at the Greenwich Police Station.  Possibly they are swearing in the new Chief.  I then went by the Putnam Shell at 401 West Putnam Avenue, and I bought $9.01 of self service premium V-Power gasoline for $4.299 a gallon for 2.095 gallons for 20.9 miles driving since Tuesday November 25, 2011 at odometer reading of 69234 miles for 9.976 miles per gallon in mostly local traffic.  I then returned home, and I picked up the mail.  I chatted with the www.bestbuy.com customer service on the product above, and they can not give me free shipping, since it is a MarketPlace item, but they said it is new and not refurbished, so I figure at that price, it is a good deal.  CIO
