One can use plastic or wooden utensils for cooking with it. If one burns food in it, one can put a tablespoon of non lemon dishwashing liquid with an inch of water and simmer it for 15 minutes to remove the burned on food.

It was not too busy downtown tonight, but there were a few college youth and teenagers out walking around. Starbucks had a few regulars, but they are so lost on the internet, they are not too chatty. The one regular from San Diego told me, he was once camping out in Colorado with his father, and he woke up with a bear in his face, so I guess he knows about the wild America. In the United Kingdom and the British Commonwealth of Nations, they like keeping track of wild animals, since Prince Phillip is one on the patrons of the Welcome to WWF's global network .

As I was walking towards the east end of the building at 71 Vinci Drive with my groceries, I had just passed a neighbor at the dumpster, and about 20 feet further east of me along the tree line was a dark cat type of animal which looked black or dark grey in the dark. It was about 2.5 feet long with a two foot long narrow tail and about 2 feet high and looked to be about 40 pounds in weight. I thought it might be a baby Mountain Lion, so I walked through the building, and I told the neighbor who was back inside. I then went up to my apartment, and I called the Greenwich Police on their non emergency number at 1-203-622-8000. I then went back outside via the front door, and I looked around with the other neighbor. The Greenwich Police did not show up, since I guess they were busy with other matters. I told a few neighbors and visitors about the baby mountain lion sighting. I chatted with a relative on the LG wireless. I put away my groceries. I chatted with a friend and a out of town security agency. I am worried that if it is a baby Mountain Lion, its older larger parents might be around. CIO

The order for Handheld Finger Ring USB Touchpad Mice for PC Laptop | eBay for $19.98 with free shipping from Santa Clara, California. I installed the Touch Pad mouse to the USB 2.0 hub. It is very tiny made for a tiny person's hand. It fits on my left hand pinky finger or second smallest finger. I extended the cable. To retract the cable, the pulley mechanism has to be centered in the length of the cable. The cable is very thin, so one has to be careful when handling it and pulling it out of the USB port. To make it easier to remove, I attached it to the USB 2.0 hub with the wireless USB mouse still attached to the laptop side USB port. If one were using it in a outside location, one would have to plug it into the laptop USB port and not the hub which is more tricky to remove it from. When in my left hand on one of my two smallest fingers, its drivers install plug and play including Google Chrome OS. The cursor moved too fast, so I set it to the slowest speed with the operating mouse control, which is just fine. I set it to left mouse, so the left key is the right key, which makes it easier to use the optical mouse with my right hand and press the keys with my right hand, as opposed to using my left hand while holding it. Moving the cursor on the left key and pressing the left key is tricky. The center key is for scrolling. When the scrolling mode is activated, the cursor does not move, until one deactivates it by pressing another key. It is very cleaver device for a laptop whose mouse pad does not work properly, but one has to have tiny hands and fingers. Since it fits on one's pinky finger like a signet ring that mafia and royalty people wear, I guess it could be considered the mafia or royal pinky touch pad mouse. I left it installed as described.

I enabled the PUK Pin Security code, but when I tried to unlock it ten times, it kept asking me to enter a new PIN code. Then it blocked the SIM card. When I called up SafeLink, they told me that I had damaged the SIM card, when I tried my AT&T SIM card in the LG320G wireless phone. They are sending me a new SIM card which will take three to five days. I then have to activate it again at TracFone | Prepaid Cell Phones | Prepaid Wireless . CIO
Note: <888> 06/14/11 Tuesday 4:35 P.M. I am charging up the SafeLink Wireless for five hours. I have to enter my telephone numbers into it which will take a while, once it is charged. One gets 260 free minutes a month. To get the 260 free minutes every month, one has to leave it turned on the first three days of the month, for it to automatically recharge the free minutes. One is not able to carry over one's minutes with the plan that I have. I can not figure out how to install the PIN security code, since it asks for a PIN security code which I do not have to install a new PIN security code. Since it is free for poor people such as people on SSI or Food Stamps, I went ahead and got it. Registration and ordering it online is simple enough. However, I will probably keep my AT&T Go Phone, since I have $80 left on it at 25 cents a minute. Thus 260 free minutes divided by 4 is $65 in free air time a month on the SafeLink Wireless telephone. However, that is only four hours and 20 minutes, so time could be used up fast. CIO

They told me to quit using the CVS Athlete's Foot Fungus and to wash my feet twice a day and to wear light cotton socks. They told me to see the Dermatologist, but I can not get to see the Dermatologist until August 2011.

Note: <888> 06/12/11 Sunday 2:45 A.M. After the last note, I chatted with a friend twice. I was told about this Mountain lion struck and killed by car in Milford - GreenwichTime . From what I can tell from the news story, it was not the same Mountain Lion as the Greenwich Mountain lion. My friend is going to a horse show today up where the Mountain Lion was spotted in Greenwich. I chatted with another friend whom is a Conservationist, and he told me a number of years ago, New York state released Mountain Lions back into the wild in the Adirondacks area to get rid of Porcupines and Coyotes. I chatted with another friend who told me, a lot of medical web sites are just trying to sell medicine. I went to bed at 5:30 P.M.. I woke up at 1 A.M.. I ate breakfast of oatmeal with honey and a sliced banana and milk, a toasted English muffin with Smart Balance spread, a 50% to 50% glass of punch and cold filtered water with vitamins and supplements, a cup of coffee with splenda sweetener and milk.

Note: <888> 06/11/11 Saturday 2:10 P.M. I rested until 1 P.M.. I chatted with two relatives and two friends. I will not be going to Kennebunkport, Maine this Tuesday June 14, 2011, because my advanced stage of foot fungus can be very contagious, so I would risk spreading it in the relative's house up in Maine. I called up a Doctor at the Emergency Room at the Greenwich Hospital earlier, and he told me also that it can be contagious. He suggested that I see a Doctor next week, and look into getting the oral pills for foot fungus, although they can cause liver problems, but I have a healthy liver as far as I know. I will keep using the Foot Fungus cream for now. One of the suggested home remedies is not white vinegar and water, but one part red apple cider vinegar and four parts water, or a quarter of a cup of bleach in bath water. There are a number of other suggested remedies in the web site I listed before Athlete's Foot Medication, Symptoms, Treatment, Home Remedy and Prevention by MedicineNet.com . I have used the CVS Athlete's Foot Cream for about five weeks, and although it seems to have stopped the spread of the foot fungus, it has not gotten rid of it. I will continue to use it. I am using a good quantity of it twice a day on the fungus spots. Another place I might have gotten it from besides public bathrooms, is that other people in my public housing building also have it. We do not have hot water in our washer machines, so it might be spread through the washer machines. I have been using a lot of bleach on my white loads of washing laundry for the last five weeks also. Thus I will be continuing to spend more time inside, except for when I have to do errands or when it is a sunny day, I might sit outside for a couple of hours. CIO
Note: <888> 06/11/11 Saturday 10:25 A.M. I will now shut down the primary work computer, and I will go back to bed. I will eat a day old muffin first.

Note: <888> 06/11/11 Saturday 8:25 A.M. I happen to be very clean in my apartment. However, since I have a weak bladder, I frequently use public bathrooms downtown. I use the public bathrooms at Starbucks on Greenwich Avenue, the Senior and the Arts Center, CVS on Greenwich Avenue, the Greenwich Library, the Stop and Shop, the Greenwich Hospital, the Greenwich Town Hall, the Greenwich Train Station, and the Thataway restaurant. One of those places might have been the source of the Foot Fungus or Athlete's Foot that I have had on both feet and my right palm of my right hand for the last four to two months.

I then sat out at three locations in the center of downtown Greenwich observing the morning activity. The For Sale sign is still in front of the Greenwich Post Office, so I guess it is not a done deal. It seemed to be the usual morning activity. I then went by the Greenwich Library, and I read the printed version of the www.greenwichtime.com and www.pcworld.com magazine.

Note: <888> 06/10/11 Friday 4:55 A.M. I don't seem to have any notes for August 1996. What basically happened back then was that I was sitting downtown at about 4 A.M. in the morning by the veterans monument across the street from the senior and the arts center. I felt a seismic vibration, so I decided to drive up by the reservoir between Lake Avenue and North street and check out the dam. I was driving my old 1976 white four door sedan Volvo 240. The driver's side window once it was put down would not go up without getting outside of the car and using both hands to hoist it up. I drove up Lake Avenue, and I turned right where the left turn is for the Merritt Parkway east. I drove along the reservoir south on the west side of it. Opposite the reservoir dam road at the south end, I had slowed down to about five miles per hour. I felt something very heavy jump on the roof of the Volvo possibly from the overhanging tree, and the Volvo put on a lot of weight, since I could tell, since it was a clutch driven car. I was out there all alone in the dark by myself. I thought about driving back into town down Lake Avenue, but I thought Westchester County Airport might be closer. I drove down Lake Avenue and west on Clapboard Ridge Road and up Round Hill Road to west on Porkchuck road and across Riversville Road and west on Cliffdale Road. All of the time I could feel the additional weight on the car, and the driver's side window was down and my cat allergies were activated. As I pasted Tudor Farm on Cliffdale Road, I saw a car coming from the west entering Tudor Farm, so they would have seen whatever it was on the roof of my Volvo. I drove down King Street and into Westchester County Airport that I knew had lights and cameras, and I drove up the Hertz Rent A Car booth at the south end of the terminal, and I asked the night person whom I knew named Garth if there was anything on the roof of the Volvo, and he said there was not. I recall singing "Fresh from the Valley of the Jolly Green Giant" the whole way. I then drove back down to the bench downtown about sunrise. I did not actually see a Mountain Lion, but about 200 pounds of weight was put on the Volvo and my cat allergies were activated. There were reports in the Greenwich Time the next few days about a bear being spotted in back country. CIO

I ate breakfast of oatmeal with honey and a sliced banana and milk, a toasted English muffin with Smart Balance spread, a 50% to 50% glass of punch and cold filtered water with vitamins and supplements, a cup of coffee with splenda sweetener and milk.

I also saw a dead Mountain Lion on the side of the Merritt Parkway by the Sikorsky Bridge two years ago, when I was driving up to Maine. I left a message with a out of town security agency.

Well on a night time schedule, I guess with the higher prices of fuel in this area, only the Mountain Lion is moving around anymore.
Maybe somebody from the Bronx Zoo: Saving Wildlife and Wild Places would now how to deal with the problem of a Mountain Lion. I guess the conventional wisdom is that it might leave town sooner or later, since it might be socially ostracized by the back country equestrian elite. CIO

For people without air conditioning, if they have a car, they could cool off at the Greenwich Library until 9 P.M. this evening. I have a theory in hot weather, if one puts about an eighth of a teaspoon of curry from India in a small glass of tomato juice, the curry from India helps one not feel the heat. Also if one does not turn on one's inside lights, one's area tends to be cooler. CIO

On the primary work computer, I shrank the first Seagate 300 gigabyte IDE hard drive by 21 gigabytes, since some of my spare Seagate IDE hard drives are actually only 280 gigabytes, and if one had to do a restore to them, it might not work with Complete PC backup restore, if the drive was not large enough. I then did a Complete PC backup of the first hard drive to the third backup hard drive. I ate breakfast of oatmeal with honey and a sliced banana and milk, a toasted English muffin with Smart Balance spread, a 50% to 50% glass of punch and cold filtered water with vitamins and supplements, a cup of coffee with splenda sweetener and milk. I will now wash the breakfast dishes, and I will make my bed. I will then convert the 6.5 pound top round eye round of beef into 12 or 13 eight ounce hamburgers, about two thirds of which I will freeze in double baby carrot bags.

I sat out downtown in the center of town at several central bench locations around the Senior and the Arts center enjoying the morning air. It seemed to be the normal Monday morning. I used the bathroom at Starbucks. I then stopped by the Shell Station on East Putnam Avenue across the street from the Whole Foods grocery store shopping plaza, and I used their free air at their air pump, and I checked the air in the tires on the Audi for 33.5 PSI all around. I then went by the Chase Bank at 19 West Putnam Avenue, and I got some change. I then went by the Greenwich Library, and I sat out for a while waiting for it to open.

Note: <888> 06/06/11 Monday 4:35 A.M. I threw out the garbage. I sat out for a while. It seems "All Quiet on the Western Front", before the Monday morning rush hour. When one is on a night schedule out here in The Sticks, there is really not too much going on. Of course, in the old days at night and the early morning hours in Manhattan, it was not too busy except on weekends. The foreign currency traders for Citicorp could be seen having lunch in the early morning hours at the Brasserie in the basement of the Seagram's Building, and that was about all that was going on, except for a few tourists trying to burn the midnight oil. Out here, one could sit up all night at the Glory Days diner, see what the Cat might drag in. There is a 24 hour diner over in Tarrytown, New York, when one gets off the I-287 North exit there, and it is next to a 24 hour Shell Station. I used to go over there, when I knew Scott Nelson from Minnesota who worked as a waiter at the Chart House in Irvington, New York, since he got off work at about midnight, he would stay up late, and I would drive him to a pub or two. He told me the Chart House in Irvington, New York use to do catering for the Rockefellers in North Tarrytown, New York, and since he had the Rockefeller look, he might be familiar with them. His family owned a gourmet meat company in Minnesota. The last I heard from him about 20 years ago, he was going to go to Dental School at www.columbia.edu , and I never heard from him again. He did not mind the cold weather here in the winter coming from Minnesota. I originally met him at a pub on West Side of Manhattan behind the Natural History Museum back in December 1983, when I first came off of Nantucket, and he was staying at a Swiss Hotel just west of the Waldorf Astoria. I think at that time, he was returning from school in Europe. The last time I saw him in White Plains, New York, he was hanging out with a very larger person that worked for ConEd, so possibly he was having security problems. One of the original developers of Internet Explorer was named Scott Nelson also, but I don't think it is the same person. He knew a lot of people, and he would frequently fly down to Virginia and Washington D.C. for various events. He had done a gourmet cooking televison show in Key West and Nantucket, so he lived in the two other places that I also lived. He is taller about 6 foot 3 inches, so he has a taller group of friends. He obviously knows where I live, but he probably does not want to pay me for gasoline money to drive him around. That was all about the time I was first getting interested in computers, so possibly he became high tech.

I put Lea and Perrins Worcestershire sauce on along with Jack Daniel's barbecue sauce, and I ate it with my usual steamed flavored rice with steamed broccoli crowns and baby carrot slices with Smart Balance Spread and olive oil on them along with a glass of watered down punch and a cup of green tea with splenda and lemon juice.

I put in two new CVS alkaline batteries, and I also put in four new CVS alkaline batteries in the base unit inside, since they were also worn out, and I reset both units by pressing both reset buttons with the end of a paper clip, and then I repositioned the outside unit and reinstalled the screen and closed the window. Thus it now works properly with both inside and outside temperatures showing on the base unit. However, with the sun shinning on it in the afternoon, it tends to be a lot hotter than it actually is outside temperature wise. CIO

I moved the small Florida flag to the center hallway bookcase, and I put the small 3 inch by 5 inch 50 star U.S.A. flag on the oak dining table opposite my primary eating place.

I currently weigh 220 pounds, so I have lost a few pounds.
Not much happens in Greenwich, Connecticut from my viewpoint, when I am not able to walk the whole length of Greenwich Avenue and the train station area because of my foot fungus. It is too expensive to cruise around in the Audi without any purpose. Thus I recently am feeling like a Prisoner of Zinda in my own personal Internet Wasteland. However, a writer is suppose to write from their own experience. I can not afford to visit nearby Manhattan to see what the local Indians are doing. At age 61, I probably should not go to the local hangouts that I once frequented over 20 years ago, and I don't even know if they are still there. However, it would be a lot of walking which would be out of the question. I have walked a lot in my life, and the recent foot fungus is the first time I have ever gotten it. I have no idea where it came from, but I did wear my leather fleece lined house slippers inside all winter to keep my feet warm, so possibly they also got a bit damp. With the foot fungus, I have just been wearing white cotton socks inside. The CVS and Walgreen's in eastern Greenwich at the I-95 Exit in Riverside are open 24 hours, but that would be about $5 in gasoline round trip to drive there and back, so it is not worth spending all of that money just to hang out and do nothing at this hour of the morning. Downtown Greenwich Avenue is not too busy on weekends either in the early morning hours. I suppose with the higher prices of gasoline here Greenwich Gas Prices – Find Greenwich, Connecticut Gas Stations and Cheap Gas in CT at Automobile Magazine , most people are spending more time at home.

Note: <888> 06/03/11 Friday 2:35 A.M. On the primary work computer, I installed PCI SATA 4 PORT CONTROLLER NON RAID CARD WORK WINDOWS 7 | eBay that I bought last Christmas 2010. It boots up, but in the CMOS boot, I do not do anything with the RAID option. When Windows 7 boots up, it installed the drivers for it plug and play. I tried to install my SATA Western Digital Passport 500GB external hard drive to the 7 port USB 2.0 hub, but it was not recognized, however when I plugged it directly into the motherboard USB 2.0 hub it was recognized, because I guess it had more power. Thus with the SATA controller from the PCI SATA card, the external USB 2.0 SATA hard drive works, which it did not without the PCI SATA controller. I did have to run a quick error check on the SATA external hard drive, to get it to be recognized by the Windows 7 Complete PC backup program. I then backed up both Vista and Windows 7 Ultimate partitions to it without any problem. When I tried booting the Windows 7 DVD to do a Complete PC Restore, the external SATA hard drive was recognized, so it is useable for backing up the entire system. Thus if one is running an older motherboard without SATA support, that is an easy option to get it to work with a SATA external hard drive for backup.
