12/28/21 Tuesday 1:05 P.M.  Off Amazon Prime Britbox, I watched season 2, episode 5 of, "MI 5".  I went outside once.  I will now shut down the primary work computer.  I will go outside.  I will then go to bed.  CIO  

12/28/21 Tuesday 11:15 A.M.   I took two slices of toasted Arnold multigrain bread, and I put Hellmann's Olive Oil mayonnaise on them, and I added 8 1/32nd inch thick slices of Stop and Shop turkey and 6 1/32nd inch thick slices of Stop and Shop provolone cheese, and I cut the sandwich in half, and I ate it with Cape Cod ridges sea salt potato chips and a 12 ounce glass of Fresca with three ounces of grapefruit juice.  I will now go outside again.  CIO  

12/28/21 Tuesday 10:40 A.M.  I went to the Acme grocery store at 640 West Putnam Avenue, and I bought a five gallon bottle of Primo filtered water with bottle return for $6.99.  I then toured www.cvs.com on Greenwich Avenue, and they now have the Covid 19 test kits for $28.  I then drove down by the waterfront on Steamboat Road.  They are building another McMansion down there.  The Island Beach commuter parking lot is totally deserted, so either the business commuters took off for a Holiday week, or with Covid 19, they are not commuting into Manhattan.  I then sat out at the Senior and the Arts Center observing a mostly deserted Greenwich Avenue.  I used the bathroom at www.starbucks.com .  I then went to the Greenwich Hospital Thrift Shop on Hamilton Avenue, and I toured their store.  I then returned home.  I brought the bottle of water up with my little folding cart.  I then put it back in the car, and I drank a brewed coffee outside.  CIO

12/28/21 Tuesday 6:55 A.M.  Back in 1973, I had dinner at the River Club on East 52nd Street with George Cary's parents and his cousin Celia Rumsey.  She liked drinking Southern Comfort whisky.  When she passed away recently, she left $60 million to the Santa Fe American Indian Art Museum.  Her mother was W. Averill Harriman's sister.  In the book on W. Averill Harriman, it says in the beginning that everything the Harrimans did was stuff the Rockefellers did not feel like getting involved in.  It also mentioned W. Averill Harriman was involved in starting Joe Biden in politics, ergo the republican Rockefellers or whatever remains of them probably do not feel like getting involved, if you get my drift.  Also W. Averill Harriman was also involved with the Illinois Central Railroad that my grandfather Scott worked for 60 years, and my Uncle Larry Anderson's mother's family the Osborne family owned, and also George Cary's grandfather Jay Coogan was also President of the Illinois Central Railroad, because his mother was also a Osborne.  That is the best that I can figure out.  Also there is no point in being a railroad detective, if they don't pay you.  I will now venture downtown to do a few errands.  CIO

!!!!!! If one is interested in Greenwich Village Coffee https://mcnultys.com/ .  Fred Von Mierers used to buy Viennese Blend coffee beans there for $7.99 a pound, and he would grind them fresh with a Braun coffee bean grinder, and made the coffee with a Danish coffee press, and use either raw sugar or raw honey with raw milk.  It was a very good cup of coffee. 

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

12/28/21 Tuesday 4:35 A.M.  I went outside, and I threw out the garbage.  Even though I have never been in England, when I stayed with Richard Mercy at Paradise Island in the Bahamas in February 1978, I saw thousands of British citizens there at the casino.  My father used to know Ian Fleming there also.  Richard Mercy was murdered in London in 1980 where he lived at 21 Eaton Square.  It seems he might have attracted a bit of attention living near Buck House, since he also looked a bit like Prince Charles.  In my period in Manhattan, the West Side of Manhattan was a working waterfront.  The British Cruise ships docked in the West 50s, and the Swedish American Lines docked on Christopher Street.  It seems now most of that waterfront activity has moved to New Jersey.  Also their was a railroad line on West Side of Manhattan with lots of storage warehouses.  The West Side Highway was paved with Belgium Blocks that people were always stealing.  Even, the court yard of Henry Kissinger's apartment building on East 52nd Street was paved in Belgium Blocks.  He lived near the River Club and across the street from Greta Garbo that worked for British Intelligence.  CIO

12/28/21 Tuesday 3:50 A.M.  When I left Lake Forest, Illinois the first time in the fall of 1972 after graduating from www.lfc.edu .  I left with Hurley Haywood from Oakbrook, Illinois whose family owned Harris Trust Bank in Chicago, and Rob Glore from Key West and Lake Forest who was related to the www.dupont.com family and whose father's family had the largest lumber company in Wisconsin, and Hurley's cousin Whitney from https://www.wayzata.org/ who lived in a French Chateau there.  We drove down to Jacksonville, Florida hauling Hurley's cigarette boat.  It looks like Whitney might have made all of the money, since their family now has big museum on West 14th Street in Manhattan https://whitney.org/ .  I then returned to Chicago, and I lived for brief spell next to the 40 story www.ibm.com building in downtown Chicago, and then I moved to 31 East Elm Street.  I finally returned east driving with George Cary in a used Mercedes Diesel sedan, with a stop in East Aurora, New York and back to Weston, Massachusetts.  In the spring of 1973, I had a job at www.cbsnews.com at their Broadcast Center on West 57th Street as a clerk typist doing the paper work for commercials.  I earned $85 a week, and I spend $35 a week for a room at the St. Clair residence on West 9th Street in Greenwich Village just west of Fifth Avenue.  I left CBS that summer, when my family moved back to Greenwich.  Over time over the following years, I learned my way around Greenwich Village which is less expensive to park at than midtown Manhattan.  Also besides rush hour down to Wall Street, it is a lot more peaceful than uptown Manhattan.  Still when living in Manhattan without a car, it involves a lot of walking to explore various neighborhoods even if one also uses public transportation.  CIO

12/28/21 Tuesday 3:30 A.M.  I went outside, and I drank my coffee.  I washed the breakfast dishes.  CIO 

12/28/21 Tuesday 2:30 A.M.  Food App https://getrecon.app/ .  I woke up, and I ate a 1/4th piece of 10 inch pumpkin pie and Cape Cod potato chips.  I finally woke up at 1:45 A.M..  I made my bed.  I went outside.  I picked up the mail.  I will eat a Jimmy Dean Sausage, Egg, and cheese sandwich with a toasted bagel with Smart Balance spread, and pineapple and mango and papaya chunks with a Mandarin orange, and a glass of Primo filtered water with some pineapple juice and cranberry juice and a cup of coffee with artificial sweetener and almond milk.  CIO

Off Amazon Prime Britbox, I watched season 2, episode 4 of, "MI 5".  I went outside once.  I will now go outside again.  I saw a new https://www.ford.com/police-vehicles/ or a new https://www.gmfleet.com/police downtown by the Police Station early this morning.  It has so many lights on it, it looks like a flying disco machine, and I can not imagine how it could be inconspicuous.  CIO

12/26/21 Sunday 5:10 A.M.  Back in 1954 to 1956, my father Louis Dale Scott was the assistant plant manager of the Chemstrand Nylon plant in Pensacola, Florida where also a few www.navy.mil people also lived.  Back in 1955 to 1961, my father Louis Dale Scott was the plant manager for the Chemstand Acrilan plant in Decatur, Alabama which was 20 miles south of Huntsville, Alabama where the first NASA space facility was located called the Redstone Arsenal now the Marshall Space Center.  I once saw a test firing of a Redstone Rocket there.  The facility was located in Alabama, because Senator John Sparkman from Alabama was the Senior Senator in charge of the Senate Defense Committee.  When we moved to this area in 1962, my father was a vice president of Chemstrand which was half owned by www.monsanto.com and half owned by American Viscos.  They had offices in the Empire State building and later on the north side of Bryant Park in Manhattan.  Stillman Rockefeller here in Greenwich was on the Board of Directors for Monsanto.  Thus I was able to go to Greenwich Country Day School despite my Southern Accent.  In my final ninth grade year there, I was the class photographer for the year book with James Paul Warburg Junior, Vicki Milbank, and Cathy Frick as I recall.  Somebody however stole my year book years later.  When we moved to Boston in 1967, my father was the Vice President of Manufacturing for Polaroid, so I worked there are a research photographer on Osborne Street in Cambridge, Massachusetts next to www.mit.edu and near www.harvard.edu .  Dr. Land who started Polaroid was Richard Nixon's Science Advisor.  Dr. Young was the Head of Research.  Alas, when my family returned to Greenwich in June 1973, when my father joined Combustion Engineering now www.abb.com , the stock market crashed in the fall of 1973, so a lot of technical people after the Viet Nam War never recovered.  Next to the Osborne Street research were the backup computers for www.nasa.gov at Technology Square.  There were a quarter million high tech people around Route 128 in Boston at that time.  Even the President of Raytheon lived next door to us in Weston, Massachusetts.  The head of www.cadillac.com in Boston lived across the street from us.  However, at the time we had three cars including an Oldsmobile Jet Star, a Mustang convertible, and a www.ford.com Country Squire station wagon possibly because, Edsel Ford was living nearby going to Babson College for business training.  We also knew the McNamara Family in Concorde, Massachusetts, and at the time somebody from that family was Secretary of Defense or had been.  CIO

12/26/21 Sunday 3:55 A.M.  One better hurry up, 75% of the big fire wood bundles at the www.mobil.com station on West Putnam Avenue by Weaver Street are gone.  However, there are still plenty of the smaller fire wood bundles at the Acme grocery store at 160 Putnam Avenue.  When my family first moved to the Round Hill Road section of Greenwich back in 1962, fire wood was only $35 a cord, and they would deliver it and stack it for you too.

www.nasa.gov used to train astronauts down in Key West, Florida.

I guess when the astronauts get very skinny and weigh less, it saves money, since in the old days every pound in space was $2 million.

12/26/21 Sunday 3:25 A.M.  As a matter of dispute with the local know it alls, back from April 1982 to February 1983, when I built the garage apartment out in Plandome Manor, Long Island at Vivian West's House, Mr. Grumman of Northrup Grumman was a neighbor.  Northrup Grumman https://www.northropgrumman.com/ built the James Webb telescope for $10 Billion out in California.  Back on Christmas Day around 1987, a friend of mine who was W. Averill Harriman's sister's nephew had me at his garage apartment out in Sands Point, Long Island.  I met his cousin the heir who only talked about "Ducks Unlimited".  Back just before Christmas 1980, when I had returned from California on my last trip, when I was living with Vivian West's daughter on West 74th Street, I made a three day trip to Frankfort, Germany to get some more technical help from the Germans which did not only include Mercedes Benz.  I have lead a very solitary life once I returned back to Greenwich in December 1983, and since September 1989, I have been working with personal computers, and I have been on the internet since 1992.  I have attended five www.microsoft.com conference, two in Stamford, one in Bridgeport, on in Hauppauge, Long Island, and one in Manhattan.  Basically if have developed certain skills over time, which I have used for my internet activities.  CIO

12/25/21 Saturday 6:00 A.M.  I took my after Christmas Dinner nap, and I woke up at 5:30 A.M..  I went outside, and I drank a brewed coffee.  Back on Christmas Eve in 1977, when I was camping out in a tent at the Boca Inlet in Boca Raton, Florida; I had the night off from working as a dish washer at Le Vielle Maison French restaurant.  I went to a coffee shop on U.S. 1, and I had coffee with someone from www.ibm.com , and on a napkin I designed a personal computer based on what I knew about an IBM 360 main frame that I had worked on in the summer of 1971 while at Polaroid.  It is still pretty much the same, but none of the parts had been invented yet.  CIO

12/25/21 Saturday 2:25 A.M.  I made and ate my Christmas Dinner.  I ate three 1/4 inch thick slices of Boars Head white breast turkey meat with four ounces of chicken gravy, 12 ounces of Simply Mashed mashed potatoes with Smart Balance spread, and half a portion of the turkey stuffing seasoned with garlic powder, Italian seasoning, ground black pepper, Lowry's seasoned salt, and 9 ounces of Green Giant microwave broccoli with cheese sauce, and 6 ounces of Ocean Spray cranberry sauce, and a 1/4 pieces of a 10 inch pumpkin pie and a 12 ounce glass of www.coke.com Zero Sugar.  I microwaved the turkey and gravy for two minutes on a microwave proof plate with lid.  I microwave the Green Giant vegetables per instructions.  I microwaved the mashed potatoes for seven minutes in a microwave proof container with lid.  I microwaved the stuffing per instructions.  That is about a $8.50 meal.  I will now go outside and drink a brewed coffee.

After being at Barbara Rockefeller's three times with Fred Von Mierers from October 1973 to February 1975, and then again from December 1980 to February 1982, I spent a lot of time around the meat packing district in Manhattan around West 14th Street.  Barbara Rockefeller's husband Winthrop Rockefeller was in the business of breeding cattle out in Arkansas.  Maybe they were friendly to me, because they got the field corn from Illinois to feed their cattle. 

I will now go outside again.  CIO

12/25/21 Saturday 12:20 A.M.  Merry Christmas.  One of the odd things about the Christian Religion is that Christians are not allowed lend money for interest, which I do not think applies anymore.  CIO 

12/24/21 Friday 11:55 P.M.  I have a few business contacts in Manhattan that do not pay much attention to me out here in the sticks of Connecticut.  In my period of keeping track of the students at www.nyu.edu School of Business a lot of them had part time jobs at the American Express Credit Card processing center at Astor Place, so they could track important people as they traveled around the world.  Thus the people whom control American Express have a worldwide intelligence network on worldwide travelers.  However, that was not the only financial institution I was familiar with.  I would some times have an early morning brunch at 4 A.M. at the Brasserie in the basement of the Seagram's Building next to the Citicorp Headquarters where all of the foreign currency traders would be eating after being up all night trading the various foreign currency exchanges at night.  As a minor point of economics Stillman Rockefeller here in Greenwich was the Chairman of Citicorp.  One of my last friends in this area is also related to Moses Taylor that started Citibank.  I think the current Governor of Connecticut Lamont is also related to a former J.P. Morgan banker.  However, I know a few things about other financial institutions also.  People work at night maintaining the computers down on Wall Street.  The vaults of the Federal Reserve Bank down on Wall Street area also full of gold bars, for anyone needing liquid assets.  When I first moved back to Greenwich back in June 1973 after my father was involved in running Polaroid in Boston, I went into Manhattan on Christmas Eve, and I met up with Fred Von Mierers.  We visited the Donahue's apartment on Park Avenue, and then we all went to Barbara Rockefeller's Town House on East 67th Street, where I met a number of fellows from www.rockefeller.edu .  Then I came back out to Greenwich for Christmas Day.  I supposed back then nobody noticed us in Greenwich, since we were mostly a private family that ate the occasional hamburger at the Greenwich Country Club which was not too busy back then.  Their hamburgers did taste like ground up filet mignon though.  I suppose some of the new money in Greenwich around the Greenwich Rockefeller family did not like us hanging around the New York Rockefeller family that are supposed to have ten times more money.  All I know is after Boodles fired me in October 1973 during the stock market crash, I never had another paying job in Greenwich.  I will now go outside again.  CIO 

12/24/21 Friday 10:40 P.M.  I went out to the ATM machine at the top of Greenwich Avenue.  I then toured www.cvs.com which is opened until 11 P.M. tonight.  I then sat out across the street at the Junior Chamber of Commerce Park, and I chatted with a local.  I then drove down Greenwich Avenue and back home.  I sat out briefly.  I filed this report.  I will now go outside and drink a brewed coffee.  CIO

12/24/21 Friday 2:10 A.M.  https://www.britannica.com/ and https://www.britannica.com/science/volcanic-winter .  It was only minus 26 degrees Fahrenheit below zero in Manhattan in February 1982 almost two years after Mount St. Helens erupted, and a lot of people went South, and the Saudi Arabian flag was flying at the Waldorf Astoria Hotel all of the time, because they were making a lot of money keeping Manhattan warm.  People have tried to alter weather records to disguise that event, but a lot of people my age remember it.  I am told the harbor froze out to Island Beach, and the graves were popping out the graveyard in Greenwich.  When I tried escape to Key West, they got rid of me despite me knowing some of the most influential families up North, including those in the Oil and Transportation and Communications businesses.  On a minor point of dispute www.harvard.edu has twenty million books in its library system, and the www.illinois.edu has sixty million books in its library system.  Thus the local drunk who only watches www.cnn.com is not very relevant.

12/23/21 Thursday 2:05 A.M.  When I was around Frederick Von Mierers' apartment at 420 East 49th Street from October 1973 to February 1975, his god mother was Helen Kress Williams who had the head table at the Opera Guild at Lincoln Center, where she once took me the Opera, so a lot of established New York saw us together.  She also had a 40 acre estate in Oyster Bay, near Sagamore Hill, and she knew Teddie Roosevelt's daughter Alice Blue Gown.  My stepfather's father was in Republican politics in New York State with Teddie Roosevelt.  When I was down in Key West, Florida; I might have been around of what was left of the "Rough Riders".  Here in Greenwich, I lived on Steamboat Road from June 1984 until January 1989, when I moved to Byram Public housing; but I continued to keep an eye on Steamboat Road through the years.  For the less informed the view across Long Island Sound from Steamboat Road happens to be a nice view of the North Shore of Long Island which includes Oyster Bay and Center Island were Rubert Murdock happens to live.  Alas, they forgot about me a long time ago, as did my friends in Port Washington, Long Island, Manhasset, Long Island and Plandome Manor Long Island; but I am still in touch with my friend whom once lived at Sands Point, Long Island; and now lives near the current President of the United States www.wh.gov in Delaware.  When from December 1980 to until February 1982, I lived at West 74th Street, and I covered Riverside Park on the Hudson River near the 79th Street Marina along with the West Village and the waterfront in Chelsea.  I used to visit a pub behind the Natural History Museum https://www.amnh.org/ that Teddie Roosevelt helped start, but they only talked about Carl Sagan, and did not know much about older history.  From what I can tell even with the internet, a lot of people on the internet are not concerned with Natural History, and nobody ever communicates with me.  I did when living in Fort Lauderdale, Key West, and Daytona live around the waterfront along with when I was in Nantucket, so maybe somebody from the Unites States Coast Guard or the United States Navy might have noticed me with my worldwide travel experience around other various waterfronts.  Alas I was never paid for my explorations, so I left making ends meet as best as I can on SSI disability income.  I do recall having Margaret Mead's named mentioned a number of times in Manhattan.  CIO

I will now go outside again.   CIO

12/13/21 Monday 7:20 P.M.  I went outside again.  As I recall, when I first drove down to Key West on Halloween in 1976, it was with Brian Hibbs from Cheshire, Connecticut whose father worked for the https://www.johnhancock.com/ insurance company.  I met Brian in Fort Lauderdale, where he knew Wiley Middleton down there.  Later in 1977, when Jimmy Eldert was down in Key West, Brian showed up again, but I was too busy with Jimmy's network of friends from https://www.unh.edu/ where he was supposed to be going to college.  That winter he had visited Russia on a State Department tour showing off his gymnastic skills, so I guess he was so cold, he decided to visit Key West.  In April, I drove him as far north as Jacksonville, Florida, where we met up with Hurley Haywood, and then I paid for Jimmy to fly back to the University of New Hampshire, and I continued to drive back up north, when it was still a bit too cold.  In Key West in that period, the https://equitable.com/ Life Insurance Company from Chicago was financing Bill Marriott to rebuild the Case Marina Hotel.  The following winter, when both Jim Eldert and myself were down in Key West, I met John Bolton who had the key to the Casa Marina Hotel, where I lived with him while it was under construction.  John's father was in the State Department in Libya at the time, and his grandmother owned the John G. Simmons insurance underwriter company that insured the refineries in New Jersey.  When I first was in South Florida in 1976, I visited a lot of www.sears.com Allstate Insurance offices to cash $20 checks off my check cashing card, I had with them.  I knew the President of Sear's Arthur Wood's son who attended www.harvard.edu  .  Fred Von Mierers knew somebody who lived on Beekman Place that also worked for Equitable Life Insurance.  At the time I was around Fred Von Mierers apartment at 420 East 49th Street from October 1973 to February 1975, he also knew Herb Patterson that was the president of https://www.jpmorgan.com/ I will now go outside again. CIO

12/13/21 Monday 6:35 P.M.  On another mention about connections with Key West besides a member of the DuPont family is that Fred Von Mierers back in 1974 introduced me to Tennessee Williams on East 54th Street.  Fred knew Paul Mellon's son that ran the florist at First Avenue and Beekman Place, and one of his clients was Paul Mellon's daughter.  When I first visited a deserted Key West on Halloween back in 1976, the whole town was deserted and boarded up, but there was one small brick building on Duval Street which was the Gulf Oil office https://www.gulfoil.com/ and on www.nantucket.net Paul Mellon's wife Bunny Mellon used to have a house out in Sconset.  She occasionally ate at Le Languedoc restaurant with Jackie Kennedy Onassis.  Jim Warburg Senior here in town was also the under secretary of the Treasury in the Roosevelt administration when Andrew Mellon was Secretary of the Treasury.  He had a falling out with Roosevelt over keeping the dollar pegged to the Gold Standard at $32 an ounce.  Fred Von Mierers also introduced me to Bill Hines that had an apartment next to the Mellon's dual town house on East 70th Street.  Bill Hines had the www.coke.com franchise for North Carolina and a house at the entrance to Camp Le Juene Marine Corps base.  CIO

12/12/21 Sunday 3:55 A.M.  This https://www.amazon.com/Vademecum-Mouthwash-and-Gargle-Concentrated/dp/B000O7PPV8 is Swedish concentrated mouthwash which is not too heavy for when one travels.  Back around 1977, when I was cleaning up the at the Pier 66 marina in Fort Lauderdale where the www.forbes.com Yacht the Highlander was docked, some idiot tried to bother me, so I do him the small bottle of yellow fluid was Nitro Glycerin, and I banged it on the bathroom sink, and the individual took off running.  Of course in Key West, when I first arrived on Halloween in 1976, I knew a member of the www.dupont.com family there that owned a small craft shop after attending school in Switzerland.  At the time the DuPont family owned the largest chain of banks in Florida called the First National Bank of Florida, so they might have invested some extra money down there.  Also at the time, they were the largest land owners in Florida owning the St. Joe paper company.  Apparently there are now four thousand members of the DuPont family, so their $16 billion does not go very far.  However, when I was in Spain in 1972, I learned the DuPont family were paying to make the spaghetti Westerns there, and then they would take the film out of Spain and show it elsewhere around the world, so it was a way of avoiding taxes in Europe.  I would probably imagine they have been doing a bit of Swiss Banking for a long time.  My father worked for DuPont in Martinsville, Virginia from 1954 to 1956, so he might have known other people from that very old American Company as a PHD in Organic Chemistry from the University of Illinois and Ohio State, if you get my drift.  CIO
