Note:<888>5/14/99 Friday 7:15 P.M. EDT: I went back to bed until 5:30 P.M.. I got up and went out quickly to the Arnold Bread store outlet and bought three loaves of Healthnut bread for $1 each. I then stopped by the Byram ATM machine. I then went to the Port Chester Beer distributor and bought a 30 pack of Coors regular for $16.43 with depost and tax. I returned home and froze two loaves of bread and put the beer in the refrigerator to start chilling. They will sell a case cold for another $1. I then watched the ABC evening news. I updated Scott's Index scopor01.htm which was down quite a bit today. I will have a some steak, baked potatoe, and brocolli and corn soon along with ice tea and coffee for dinner, and then I guess I will clean up and go out. Well have a good evening. CIO
Note:<888>5/14/99 Friday 3:30 P.M. EDT: I sat up until 6:30 A.M. this morning rethinking some old fish stories. I was awaken by a phone call from a family member about 2 P.M. on how to play music with the computer CDrom drive. I explained it drousily. I had breakfast of Cafe au Lait, three fried eggs, five strips of bacon, toast, and orange and grapefruit juice and vitamins. I did some minor internet work. I will clean up shortly and go by the Arnold Bread Store outlet and stop by the Port Chester Beer distributor and see if they have any beer left, and then I will return the goods back to the apartment. I am having a relaxing afternoon. CIO
Note:<888>5/14/99 Friday 2:00 A.M. EDT: I went out after last message and stopped by the ATM machine in Byram. I drove by the Port Chester Beer distributor at 9:45 P.M., but they were closed. I was advised by one of the employees at the Sundown Saloon on Greenwich Avenue that the Port Chester beer distributor still sells Coors in 30 packs for about $10, so I will check it out this evening. I think for hospitality contengencies one should keep a little beer around in case any thirsty relatives stop by in the summer. I next went downtown Greenwich and chatted with a Polish German fellow with a German motor sticker on his car that was walking his white German sheperd, and he told me he is looking for someone to room with. I chatted with him about white German Sheperds and what good winter dogs they are. I next walked the lower section of Greenwich Avenue, and I mentioned to one of the twins at Starbucks, I saw his twin in New Canaan at Starbucks there. I noticed they have started sewer construction underneath the railroad underpass on Steamboat Road again. It seems that this has been going on for about three years. I drove down to the bottom of Steamboat Road and viewed the harbor. I then drove over to CVS at the Riverside shopping plaza and bought seven Dutch Master Treat light cigar cigarette packages for $11.79 and a dollar bottle of garlic powder for $12.79 total. I chatted with a few shoppers about electronics. I then drove back to Greenwich Avenue and walked the lower section again, and it was slow. I stopped by the Greenwich Harbor Inn to use the restroom, and I told the regular night clerk about the hurricane forecast. I then drove to the bottom of Steamboat Road and saw a couple of kids viewing the water. I then stopped by the Food Emporium since the Grand Union was closed. They now have 13 oz. bags of A&P Hasslenut coffee for $3.59. I bought two of them, and a half gallon of Tropicana Ruby Red orange juice $1.99 or a dollar off with the Food Emporium card for $9.17 total. I next stopped by the all night Shell Station on West Putnam Avenue and told the regular night attendant about the hurricane forecast. I told a worse case scenario for Shell Oil on the east coast could be that the oil tankers from the middle east are blocked from coming out of the Suez Canal by the Russian Navy Black Sea Fleet, and then the two $5 billion dollar oil platforms in the Gulf of Mexico are hit by category five hurricanes, then suddenly Shell Oil on the east coast would have to import most of its oil from Brunei. To get the oil from Brunei cheaply they would have to expand the pipe lines across the Ismus of Panama, so more tankers could transfer oil across Panama from the Pacific Ocean to the Atlantic Ocean. I guess the middle east tankers could move their cargos to Asia to fill the short fall that Brunei would have in supplying Asia. He did not seem to make sense of it, but he listened. I then returned home and mixed the Hasslenut coffee beans with the rest of my coffee beans. I am just finishing up making icetea.htm . This time I am adding a cup of the Neuf french white wine. I am out of tea bags, and I only have a couple of dozen Prince of Wales tea bags left. I guess I will have to look for some on sale. I thought I had a extra 100 of GU tea bags. I will do a little of my regular internet work, and I guess I am back on a night schedule. It is sort of a pain that my three appointment every two weeks are in the daytime, and I have to rearrange my schedule for them, but I enjoy getting out in the day time. I also have a dental appointment next week. Well enjoy the morning, and this is the latest briefing from the quiet side of town. CIO
Note:<888>5/13/99 Thursday 9:25 P.M. EDT: I had a Tony's Pizza at 7 A.M. this morning, and worked on the computer until about 10 A.M.. I rested until 2 A.M., and I cleaned up and made my 3 P.M. appointment. I stopped by the Greenwich Hospital Thrift shop, and I then headed down to Steamboat Road. It was crowded, and I viewed the harbor and then I headed over to Tod's Point. I viewed the Sound for a while. I chatted with a few people about the upcoming hurricane season. I stopped by the Hyatt and withdrew $20 from the Bank of New York ATM there. Morgan Stanley and American Express travel are having meetings there. I stopped by Staples. I drove back to central Greenwich and drove down to Steamboat Road, and I chatted with a family from Columbia about coffee. I stopped at the Greenwich Harbor Inn and used the bathroom. I chatted with a fellow from St. Louis checking in with his family about the upcoming hurricane season. I drove over the Grand Union and bought Hellmans Mayonaise for $1.99 for a quart jar, a half gallon of GU 2% milk for $1.72, a big rib eye steak for $6.79 with the bone in at $2.99 a pound with the store circular coupon, a bag of Idaho potatoes 5 pounds for $1.99, and two ears yellow corn for .20 each for a total of $12.89. I returned home and put away the groceries. I microwaved a Stauffers frozen Lasagna, and while I was doing that I noticed my server was down. I had to reboot the computer and run the Norton disk doctor, I also ran antivirus scan. I also replaced the eight files that the Norton Update Pro replaces with older files when you run it. I noticed in the Apache log the server went down at 3:30 P.M.. I guess either too many people were on it, or the eight bad files might have caused it to malfunction. The server is back up and running fine. I got a $10 rebate check from Microsoft for the Microsoft Money Program I bought. I think after I post this I will run over to the Port Chester beer distributor if it is still open to buy a 30 pack of Coors for about $10, if they still stock it; to have for the summer. I also updated Scott's Index scopor01.htm , and IBM was up $20 today. I had my Stauffers Lasagna with ice tean and coffee. Well have a good evening. CIO
Note:<888>5/13/99 Thursday 4:00 A.M. EDT: I did a little systems maintenance until 10 P.M., and then I took a nap until midnight. I had a meal of three scrambled eggs, five strips of bacon, toast, orange juice, and coffee. I have been reading tech reports on the internet. I updated Scott's Broadcast sound.htm . Well enjoy the morning. I might go out in a little while or rest, I am not sure. CIO
Note:<888>5/12/99 Wednesday 8:45 P.M. EDT: I had a Stauffers chicken pot pie for dinner with ice tea. I am holding off the coffee, and I might rest a while. CIO
Note:<888>5/12/99 Wednesday 7:45 P.M. EDT: I installed the latest CMOS bios for my S-571 PCWare motherboard. I changed some of the cmos settings, PIO mode on the drives and cdrom from 4 to 5, enabled 32 bit disk access on all three and in Power Management CMOS option I disabled HDD suspend, and PCI Plug and Play CMOS opton I increased the time latency from 64 to 256 and in advanced CMOS options I changed the video multiplier from 4 to 12. I also because of the new CMOS driver had to inlarge the default screen for my monitor from the monitor control buttons. All seems to be running fine, and I only get the drive hesitancy once when I start the computer. I will try it for a while. Well it is time to start thinking about dinner, and I guess I will clean up after then. Have a good evening. CIO
Note:<888>5/12/99 Wednesday 4:35 P.M. EDT: I tried the PC Ware http://www.pcware.com Bios updates for my S-571 motherboard, and they still don't work, so I reinstalled the 9/02/98 bios version 5710902s.rom which works just fine with amiflash.com . Well system is working fine. Have a good evening, I will take a nap; and then have a bit of dinner. I updated Scott's Index scopor01.htm . CIO
Note:<888>5/12/99 Wednesday 1:45 P.M. EDT: I called up Ming at HM Computer Consulting http://www.hmcomp.com at 461 Main Street, East Haven, Connecticut 06512, 1-203-288-9568 to see what he had I could use to upgrade my system. I can get a:
PENTIUM II MOTHERBOARD
XCEL2000 W/SOUND /8MB SVGA AND 56K MODEM(MB-748MR)------- $99
and a Intel Celeron 400 CPU with fan for about $160
other CPUs are: HM Computing CPUs , however
he said the overall system and sever would not be that much faster since the hard drive speed and memory still would be a bottle neck. He also said that if one upgraded the motherboard and processor, one would either do a clean install of Windows 98 or run setup again, since Win98 would need to load new IDE drives and reorder them. Also from experience a new system CMOS, might mean that one might need to reformat one's hard drive, which happened to me last time I upgraded the system, and then I did a restore from tape. Ming also said he would be getting the new Intel Celeron 450 soon. I highly recommend Ming at HM computing since my system parts I got from him a year ago are still working fine, and the Alton Motherboard made by http://www.pcware.com has worked fine. The above motherboard has 8 MB onboard SVGA and along with sound and USB, etc. He said my present AT case would work fine, but if I were upgrading I would recommend getting a new case since I leave my computer going all the time, a new power supply in the new case would be recommended. Well I think I will wait until Christmas to upgrade my system since it is all running fine, and basically I can't speed up the hard drive, and moreover if I do an upgrade; I would rather do it when Windows 2000 comes out around Christmas time or whenever. Well back to a little routine activity. CIO
Note:<888>5/12/99 Wednesday 11:00 A.M. EDT: I was up at 10 A.M. today. The tape backup was finished, and I ran a scandisk and disk defragment, while having breakfast. I had breakfast of GU raisin bran, toast, coffee, orange juice, and vitamins. I recieved a phone call from a friend, and I briefed him on local happenings. Not much happening here, I guess it is another quiet week in Greenwich. Well have a good day. CIO
Note:<888>5/11/99 Tuesday 11:15 P.M. EDT: I went out after the last message. I walked the lower area of Greenwich Avenue. I chatted with one local about current events. I viewed the local youth moon watching down on Steamboat Road. I returned home and relaxed for a while. I am going to bed shortly. I will start the tape back up now, so the server will be down for around six hours until it is completed or when I wake up after that. Well have a good morning. CIO
Note:<888>5/11/99 Tuesday 8:15 P.M. EDT: I went out and chatted with one of my neighbors. I stopped by Var Max Liquor Pantry, just across the state line in Port Chester, and bought 10 bottles of the Chateau Mas Neuf 1996 white table wine for about $4 each down from $8 as a clearence item, for $35.55 total. I then drove back to the center of town and back down by the waterfront. I chatted with the local fishermen down on Steamboat Road. I told the Junior Sailing Instructor at the Indian Harbor Yacht Club about the upcoming hurricane season, and gave him my web site address. I returned home just now and put away the ten bottles of wine in the bedroom closet. I mostly use it for my improvised French cooking. I chatted with my neighbors. One of my neighbor's daughters are visiting. I am cooking a regular Tony's pizza which should be ready in five minutes. Well I will keep going as long as possible. I probably should fall back to a night schedule, but I have a 3 P.M. appointment on Thursday. Well have a good evening. I recognized a familiar tan face from North Florida. CIO
Note:<888>5/11/99 Tuesday 4:50 P.M. EDT: I went out at 9 A.M. this morning after cleaning up. I printed out three copies of 1999 Atlantic Seasonal Hurricane Forecasts and mailed one to a relative in Florida, and I gave one to the floor manager at Putnam Trust when I went out, and I saved one for myself. Before stopping at Putnam Trust I first went to the West Putnam Avenue area post office to mail the copy to Florida, and I stopped by the Hospital Thrift shop. After the bank I went downtown and walked around and chatted with some early morning walkers. I stopped by Subway Barber and got a haircut for $13 plus $2 tip. I chatted about volcanoes and other general topics. I stopped by the Mews thrift shop and mentioned a topic I had seen on a documentary about all the millions of Starlings flying into Rome, Italy in the eveniing; and I suggested that they might not be going there because it is warmer, but because of radio interference from a television or radar or power lines. This was the case around the TVA flyway in Alabama in old days when they had high power transmission cables which caused the Starlings to converge on the power wires and towers. I next headed down to the bottom of Steamboat Road, and I viewed the harbor. I next went over the ELDC thrift shop and mentioned the upcoming hurricane problem. I stopped by St. Catherines thrift shop and viewed their merchandise. I went to Staples in Old Greenwich and they were out of stock of the Sony Super 10 GB tapes, so I bought 3 boxes of small staples from the clearence area for $1.59 total. I then headed up to Staples in Norwalk driving through Darien. They Darien thrift shop still is not open. I viewed CompUSA merchandise. They have a ACER scanner they're promoting for about $70, but no sale items this week. I had a hard time finding the Sony tape, but it was right in front of me; and the shop staff had to point it out to me. I bought the Sony 10 GB SuperStation tape for $34.99 plus $2.10 sales tax for for $37.09. I will start a duplicate backup tonight before I go to bed, so as to have a second tape backup. I next headed back into Darien and I drove up to New Canaan. I found a parking place in New Canaan which can be quite difficut in front of Francos Wine Merchants next to the Whitney shop. He has a magnificent collection of wines that I quickly viewed, and I told him somebody I know is going to France in two weeks. He has a web site http://www.francoswine.com if you want to browse his merchandise and comparison shop. I chatted with a staff member from Starbucks that I have seen working at Greenwich Avenue shop, and told him about the hurricane season. I walked over towards the New Canaan firehouse. I chatted with a good looking Norwegian gall advertising tours of Kitchens outside the Gramaphone shop. I told her about going to Norway in the old days and CATS discotecque with all the pictures of Noble Dancer and the pub underneath the old church in Oslo. I mentioned all of the five feet of snow melted in about three days when I was there in 1983. I next toured the Visiting Nurse thrift shop across from the New Canaan fire station. They have some nice suits and sports jackets there reasonably priced. I told the counter lady about the least expensive new computers on the internet for $300 without monitor available from WEBzter: Browsing WEBzter Jr. , but I told her http://www.webzter.com not http://www.webzterpc.com which is the correct listing. I next walked back to the car, and I told a gentleman from Florida with his wife about the hurricane forecast. I next headed back to Greenwich, and I drove down Greenwich Avenue and stopped back at Steamboat Road. I told several people about the hurricane forecast. I next went by the Greenwich Hospital Thrift shop and chatted about the hurricane forecast again. I bought a large white Danish Bodum coffee maker for $3.75 although I already have a red one. I next stopped by Putnam Trust again and told a few other people about the hurricane forecast. I went by Exxon and bought $11.25 of premium gasoline at $1.50 a gallon; and I mentioned that if the Russian's Black Sea fleet cuts off the Oil Tankers from the Middle East because of the Yugoslavia situation, and if the hurricanes in the Gulf of Mexico knock out the oil platforms, Exxon might be sitting pretty with oil up in Prudoe Bay, Alaska, Venzauela, and Mexico which should be secure. I also chatted with a returning teacher at CompUSA who was buying a scanner, and he teaches at the Sultanate of Oman, Sultan Qaboos University, so I gave him my web address. I had a busy day, and it is time to start slowing down. I also updated Scott's Index scopor01.htm and Exxon, Shell, and Fortune Brands released their dividends today. Well have a good evening. CIO
Note:<888>5/11/99 Tuesday 5:10 A.M. EDT: I went back to bed and had a dream about eating bushles of Oysters, and I woke up at 3 A.M., and I was hungry; so I broiled a steak, steamed some brocolli, and microwaved two small baked potatoes and had an early dinner with ice tea. I then relaxed on the sofa and did some thinking. I thought about the good old days before the internet, when I would sit up all night reading and always read the Economist from front to back. Well how times have changed in this brave new world of high technology. I guess I should try to improve my spelling, but since with all the notes I write that might take up to another hour a day, which I don't have, please forgive the misspellings and typos. Not much happening, I guess I will have a cup of coffee about 6 A.M., and now I will be back to the internet. Frequently one needs to break routine to see what else is going on, since with the library closed for another two weeks, we all can't fall back to the library for diverse reading. I am thus uninformed about whatever the village focus is in the Greenwich Times, other than the headlines; I occassionally see downtown. Of course I have all the worlds information and public relations on the internet; however I tend to focus mostly on Yahoo Reuters and the established British press, particularly the Court circular to familiarize myself with other spots in the U.K. that one normally might not read about in the headlines of the British press. I am frequently curious as to whether the individuals still weave cloth out in the outer Herbides, since I have a few tweed jackets that I guess I have outgrown. Well I am sure despite the internet, some people are still leading more traditional lives based on years of established tradition. Despite all the worries about the computer viruses, the real scourge of the electronics industry is if the electricity should fail, and then suddenly a lot of our modern conveniences don't work; and we're suddenly left to our own primative resources. Well have a good morning. CIO
Note:<888>5/10/99 Monday 10:10 P.M. EDT: I tried downloading Lotus Notes Domino R5 this morning about 4 A.M.. I got it working, but it is still a little hard to figure out, and it uses too many system resources on my system, and it is only a 90 day beta, and Apache is free. When I went to uninstall the Domino Server, I kept gettting the R5 homepage when I logged onto my site at http://mrscott.com . I guess I panicked, I tried reinstalling R5 and uninstalling it and reinstalling the @home software. Finally I gave up and 11 P.M. this morning, I went out and stopped by Putnam Trust Bank of New York, and I then went to the Post Office and paid my SNET, Cablevision, and Optimum Online bills. I did not get a hair cut since it was about noon. I sat in the park until about 1 P.M. observing the lunch time crowd. I went by Fresh Fields and bought a 90 tablet bottle of Arthrescue for $14.39. I did not go by the Hospital Thrift shop since the parking lot was busy. I did drive by Steamboat Road and the lunch crowd was out walking around. I returned home, and had some reheated speghetti, and I then went to bed about 2 P.M.. I cancelled my 4 P.M. appointment. While I was asleep, my 4 P.M. appointment called to reschedule. I recieved a phone call about 7:30 P.M. from a family member. I chatted for a while. I got up and called Optimum Online about the homepage problem. We finally figured out the http://mrscott.com server was running fine, just my Internet Explorer 5.0 web browser had the Lotus R5 page registering in its cache for that site, and as soon as I cleared the cache the regular homepage came up. A lot of worrying over nothing. I guess I was tired and a little rest made a difference. I had GU raisin bran, toast, orange and grapefruit juice, coffee, and vitamins for breakfast. I chatted with a couple more family members. I email a few people about 1999 Atlantic Seasonal Hurricane Forecasts . I tried contacting Marriott corporation about the same matter. I updated Scott's Index scopor01.htm . Well have a good evening, I guess I will clean up; and go out in a little while. CIO
Note:<888>5/10/99 Monday 1:45 A.M. EDT: I went out after the last message. I chatted with one of my neighbors. Apparently someone had set fire to the nylon netting of the batting cage of the Little League baseball field behind the building, and she had called the police. I threw the steak bone in the dumpster. I went downtown and it was real quiet. I walked the entire length of Greenwich Avenue, and a few reverse commuters were going home. It was pleasent evening, and I was comfortable in a sweater and a jacket. I noticed one person walking around Greenwich Avenue with a potted palm which seemed quaint. I believe the Greenwich Harbor Inn has large potted palms at their doorway entrance. I noticed a few evening strollers. The tullips are all gone. There was a little music in Thataways with a few people listening, and I belive the Dome had a few people. I noticed a few people departing from the hospital at midnight. The headlines in the Sunday Greenwich Times has something about George Bush coming into the area, but I did not buy it to see which one. I believe he is suppose to address a conference in mid May around New Haven Wallingford area that I referenced in my notes earlier Peter Lowe International | Seminar Detail Page , so perhaps he is also stopping by Greenwich. I have seen so many people that look like him over the years that it is hard to tell whom the real person is. Of course in the New York Manhattan area we have lots of people whom look like other people particularly with my family the Scott family since we have been in Manhattan since the day one in 1640 when we arrived with some Dutch settlers. The Scott family and the Jay family look in Manhattan are much the same. Perhaps I should apply as a park attendant at the John Jay homestead up in Bedford, New York to see if any relatives stop by. Well I guess I will do a little internet work. Have a good morning. CIO
Note:<888>5/09/99 Sunday 10:20 P.M. EDT: I went back to bed after the last message. I had two phone calls wishing me Happy Birthday while I was asleep. I finally got up at 4 P.M., and I chatted with a couple of family members wishing Mom, Happy Mother's Day. I cleaned my apartment and watered the plants. I cleaned up, and I finally went out at 8 P.M.. I observed the cloudy sunset from Steamboat Road. I walked the lower section of Greenwich Avenue. At 9 P.M., I went to the Grand Union. Rib Eye steaks are $2.99 a pound with the store coupon, and I bought one for $6.45, two of Tony's less expensive pizzas for $2.50 apiece, (one has to look for the cheaper ones, not the Supreme), a half gallon of GU 2% milk $1.72, and a head of brocolli for $1.50 or $14.71 total. The Grand Union closes at 11 P.M. on Sunday nights. I returnd home and cut the bone off the rib eye to throw out in the field for the neighboring German Sheperd to find in the morning. I split the rib eye in half to have two thinner slices, and I broiled one, and saved one for another day. I microwaved a baked potatoe and steamed brocolli along with ice tea, and I am just having my coffee now after dinner. I guess after my coffee, I will go out for some more fresh air. Well have a good evening. I have a 4 P.M. appointment tomorrow. CIO
Note:<888>5/09/99 Sunday 7:25 A.M. EDT: Yesterday when I stopped by CVS, I bought 100 Vitamin C 500 mg. tablets for $2.99. This evening when I went out after the last message, I stopped by the Grand Union and bought three 12 packs of soda for $5 with $1.80 can deposit. I bought Nestea Ice Tea, Coca Cola Classic, and Diet Sprite. I also bought a large bottle of Lea and Perrins Worchestire Sauce for $2.59, a dozen large GU eggs .79 and two Stauffers Chicken Pot Pies for $2.50 each for a total of $14.88. I returned the groceries home. I went back out and walked the lower section of Greenwich Avenue. I then walked the entire length of Greenwich Avenue. Lots of the kids were out having beverages at the Dome restaurant and other pubs along the Avenue. I told the proprieter of the Dome about the hurricane forecast, so any Floridians patronizing the pub might find out through the grapevine. I noticed quite a few other strollers out. People were parking illegally in front of the Richard's construction at the old Sunoco station, so they were all ticketed. I told one Constable on Patrol about the hurricane forecast. I mentioned that people in Florida should think about moving their boats up north during the hurricane season, and I had once heard that Ocean City, Maryland had room for 300,000 yachts. I also chatted with a fellow in a straw hat that had been down to Key West. Well I returned home about 11:30 P.M., and my house guest arrived about midnight. We chatted until about 1:30 A.M. His daughter was kicked in the face by a Clysdales last Sunday, but she is all right. He just left, and he is going down to the Bernardsville, New Jersey to look at a Pony this morning. Well I think I will go back to bed, before I start house cleaning when I wake up. It looks to be a sunny day out. Well have a good morning. CIO
Note:<888>5/08/99 Saturday 8:40 P.M. EDT: I went out at 4 P.M., and walked the lower section of Greenwich Avenue after stopping by CVS. I drove over to Staples in Old Greenwich and viewed the store. I chatted with a fellow from Chile. I returned to town and viewed the harbor. I returned back home and relaxed for a while. I just had speghetti and ice tea for dinner, and I am making coffee. I have a friend coming over to spend the night at midnight, so he can make an appointment in New Jersey in the morning. I will go out in a litte while and see if they still have Citra soda at the Grand Union on sale for three 12 packs for $5. Well have a good evening. CIO
Note:<888>5/08/99 Saturday 3:40 P.M. EDT: I went to bed at 4 A.M.. I was up at 2 P.M.. I had breakfast of three microwaved strips of bacon which I do between sheets of paper towels, three fried eggs sunny side up, two slices of toast, a glass of orange juice and grapefruit juice, vitamins, and American coffee. I updated my Great Britain page gb.htm . I checked with the British Embassy in Washington D. C. 1-202-462-1340 as to weather with the New Scottish parliament, there will be a Scottish Prime Minister and seperate Scottish Diplomatic presence. I briefed them on my familiarity with Anglo American affairs. Well time to start cleaning up. On a minor point of trivia, tomorrow May 9, is my 49th birthday; I believe on the same anniversary day as the Red Cross. Well have a good afternoon. I need to get a hair cut some time in the near future. CIO
Note:<888>5/08/99 Saturday 7:00 A.M. EDT: I posted the eight files Symantec LiveUpdate Pro Microsoft Windows 98 System Files Current 5/8/99 that I had to replace to get my system running normally. CIO
Note:<888>5/08/99 Saturday 6:15 A.M. EDT: I found out that the Microsoft Media Player 6.1 does not work with my Real *.rm file in a a media player plugin I use for my broadcast sound.htm , but the Microsoft Media Player 5.2 does. I also was at http://www.nortonweb.com , and when using LiveUpdate Pro it installed eight older system files " mcicda.drv, winaspi.dll, commctrl.dll, ddeml.dll, lzexpand.dll, shell.dll, toolhelp.dll, ver.dll " which caused my system to give an error message that older files had been installed over newer files. I was able to remedy this problem since I keep a partial C: drive to D: drive backup on my system, so I restored the eight newer files; I had in the backup. Well system is running fine. I have not accomplished much; but on a limited budget with not much else to do, I guess my internet site is like "Leading a Horse to Water", but "You Can't Make it Drink." Well have a good morning.

Note:<888>5/08/99 Saturday 1:45 A.M. EDT: I was looking at 1999 Atlantic Seasonal Hurricane Forecasts and this season's forecast for hurricanes is about 50% more than average, so batten down the hatches you have a short time to get ready for the hurricane season. I chatted with a government agency and relayed the message. I went out about 11:45 P.M. and I drove down to Steamboat Road and then I drove over to the Riverside Shopping plaza and bought for $15.04 a carton of Dutch Treat Lights cigar cigarettes. I stopped by the Greenwich Police station and told them about the upcoming hurricane season. I walked the lower section of Greenwich Avenue in the slight drizzle we're having this morning. I also had a Tony's supreme pizza with ice tea before I went out. I am on the wash cycle of my laundry. Well back to the net this morning. Have a good morning. The local youth were out partying at the Dome this morning. CIO
