Note: <888> 09/23/08 Tuesday 3:25 P.M..  I woke up at noon.  For breakfast I ate a bowl of oatmeal with honey and sliced banana, a toasted bagel with olive oil, a glass of passion punch with vitamins and supplements, and a cup of coffee with milk and splenda.  Before going to bed, I did a Vista Complete PC backup from the first hard drive to the second hard drive.  I just finished a Vista Complete PC backup from the first hard drive to the Bytecc external hard drive.  I threw out some garbage.  I chatted with a neighbor.  I just had a spot inspection from two Greenwich Housing Authority officials.  I explained the reason for my apartment setup.  I explained some of the more intricate details.  They still think the apartment setup is too crowded, but I do not plan to change anything for now after working more on improving it for the last three months.  I have lived here for 20 years, and I do not plan to set it up for a cocktail party.  I am in good health, so I do not need to set it up for the EMT technicians to take me out in an emergency.  I do not intend to set it up like a hospital room either.  Having maintained an apartment in Manhattan that was 350 square feet when http://mikelouisscott.com/fred.htm took over Bill Baldwin's business and was in partnership with Taylor Sterling from here in Greenwich, I know how Fred's apartment which although small near the United Nations was run like a Carlyle Hotel suite.  Fred's clients included Mrs. Warburg Selicman, Mrs. Avery Fisher, Helen Kress Williams, Nelson Rockefeller, Barbara Rockefeller, Bunny Melon, Paul Melon's daughter, Kip Forbes, and Mrs. Vanderbilt in Newport, Rhode Island  Thus this apartment I live in is based on my experience and budget, and not the wide open spaces concept of decorating.  It is a small enough apartment that it can be warm enough in the winter.  Also once the cold weather sets in, more than likely any "Pied A Terre" will be appreciated.  Since most of the Movers and Shakers spend a great deal of time on jets and airplanes, I feel my apartment is more comfortable and work friendly than a jet of air plane cabin.  CIO   

Note: <888> 09/23/08 Tuesday 5:10 A.M..  I did not go to bed after the last note.  I watched a two hour special on channel 13 PBS high definition on Albert Einstein and E=MC (squared).  I was told by a relative that one can take the bus from Boston to New York non stop for a 4.5 hour trip each way for $40 round trip.  I uninstalled Norton Internet Security 2008 on the primary Vista computer, and then I ran the Norton removal utility to remove any other remaining features in the system.  I then made a copy of the McAfee Internet Security suite CD.  I then installed it on the primary Vista computer, and ran its updates.  I then did a quick antivirus scan.  The McAfee Internet Security Suite runs just fine, and the Vista system runs a bit faster with it.  It came with a $30 upgrader rebate, so I filled out the information, and I sent in the front page of my Norton Internet Security 2008 manual, so hopefully in two months, I will have the $30 rebate, so I will be paid $17 for buying it.  I mailed the rebate information downstairs.  I will now shut down the primary Vista computer, and I will go to bed soon.  CIO

I unpacked.  I received the new sheets, and I left them on the bedroom hamper.  I put the new case fans on the pile of computer parts to the right side of the bedroom television.  I went outside, and I moved the car to one of its usual places.  I put the small cart back in the trunk of the Audi.  I made up a batch of passion punch.  The McAfee Internet Security Suite 2008 3 license copy was in the mail, but I will not install it until Norton Internet Security 2008 expires in 12 days. I sorted through the mail.  I received two $10 survey checks and a $16 memory rebate check.  I received notification that my food stamps have been raised starting October 2008 from $118 a month to $176 a month which is good news. I started up the primary Vista computer and the FIC server, and I installed the Norton Internet Security 2008 updates, and the Vista updates on the FIC server.  The primary Vista computer shows no new Windows updates.  I will now microwave and eat a Maria Callendar 21 ounce frozen beef lasagna with grated parmesan and Romano cheese on it, and I will eat it with some watered down passion punch.  CIO

I then put back all of the smaller furniture and decorative objects and hooked up the television to the cable system, thus the library is back to normal and looks quite great. The carpenters have to cut .75 inch off the radiator end covers on the bottom, and they will come back on Monday to install them and pick up their tools.

I showered, and I cleaned up. I watched the Weather Channel about Hurricane Ike. They said a lot of people are not evacuating which is foolish. When I was at Greenwich Country Day from 1962 to 1965, I read a short story about the hurricane in Galveston in 1900, and there were over 5,000 people killed. Ocean water when driven by a hurricane is denser than cement, so even the most permanent structures tend to not to withstand the hurricane surge. I recall in the last hurricane in that area about six years ago, there was mention the Department of Defense had a biological warfare laboratory on the beach in Galveston also. I have never been on the south east coast of Texas, so I do not have first hand experience. The carpenters working on the floor in the library said they would be done about 2 P.M.. I will help them move a half dozen pieces of heavy furniture back into the library, after they are done.

Note: <888> 09/07/08 Sunday 6:55 P.M.  I ate the same meal as the last couple of nights, but instead of using a hamburger bun with the 8 ounce hamburger, I used a bagel, and instead of ketchup, I put A1 Bull's-eye barbeque sauce on the cheese burger.  CIO

Note: <888> 09/07/08 Sunday 5:30 P.M.  I threw out some garbage.  I walked around the building.  I chatted with neighbors.  I noticed the Greenwich Ice Skating rink is now opened for the season, although it is currently a bit warm out at 81 degrees Fahrenheit Greenwich, Connecticut (06830) Conditions & Forecast : Weather Underground .  CIO

Note: <888> 09/07/08 Sunday 4:45 P.M.  I woke up at 9 A.M. this morning.  I ate breakfast of oatmeal with honey and milk and sliced banana, a toasted bagel with olive oil, and a glass of 50% passion punch and 50% cold filtered water, and a cup of coffee with milk and splenda.  I washed the breakfast dishes.  I went back to bed until 1 P.M..  I made my bed.  I showered, and I cleaned up.  I threw out the garbage.  I checked the oil on the Audi.  I went downtown, and I sat out briefly.  I went by the Greenwich Automotive Services Exxon gasoline station, and I bought $15 of self service premium at $4.319 a gallon for 3.474 gallons for 43.4 miles driving since August 29, 2008 at odometer reading of 61072 miles for 12.4928 miles per gallon in local driving at under 30 miles per hour with the air conditioner going.  I checked the tires for 32 PSI.  I returned home.  I chatted with a neighbor.  I packed up the items that I am taking to Kennebunkport, Maine.  I chatted with a relative.  CIO

Note: <888> 09/06/08 Saturday 11:55 P.M.  It is my viewpoint that even if Hurricane Ike tracks over Cuba, the high winds are on the north side of it, and they would be over the waters of the Florida straits, so more than likely the waters in the Florida straits will be churned up quite a bit, and more than likely there will be flooding in Key West and the other Florida Keys whether or not the hurricane moves over them or not.  I ate 5 dried apricots.  CIO 

Note: <888> 09/06/08 Saturday 11:40 P.M.  If you look at this NRL Monterey Satellite Photos, Hurricane Ike is quite a large hurricane at category 4, but it is suppose to lose strength over Cuba, and regain strength over the Gulf of Mexico.  Thus I would say it is safe to say that Key West, Florida is in harms way.  If I were down there, I would leave and go north to some place like Orlando, Florida or Atlanta, Georgia.  CIO

Note: <888> 09/05/08 Friday 4:20 P.M.  I went to bed about 2 A.M. after the last note.  I had a telephone call from traveling relatives about 9 A.M., and I met them outside about 15 minutes later.  They looked at the Berber carpet in the Audi, and they said they did not need it for the house in Maine.  They gave me a New York Times, four brown and white giraffe pillows about 18 inches by 18 inches and 5 olive strips pillow covers the same size, and a sweater to take to my relative in Maine.  They left shortly there after.  I ate breakfast of oatmeal with honey and milk and sliced banana, a toasted English muffin with butter, and a glass of 50% passion punch and 50% cold filtered water, and a cup of coffee with milk and splenda.  I washed the breakfast dishes, and I made my bed.   I put the olive moss green corduroy slip cover over the green and yellow damask slip cover on the Scott family sofa.  I put four of the olive striped pillow covers on the brown and white pillows, and I put them on the center back of the Scott family sofa, and I still have the larger beige damask pillows at either end.  I put the fifth pillow cover on the green and red apple pillow on the chair beneath the stereo setup.  Overall, it is a change that I did for now, and it looks quite well.  I showered, and I cleaned up.  I went by the Greenwich Hospital Thrift shop, and I was able to return the Berber runner for $35 shop credit.  I bought for $20 each, a 19 inch EIZO L66 LCD monitor and a 19 inch EIZO Flexscan L661 monitor for $40 total.  I then returned home.  I threw out the 10 year old CompUSA 19 inch CRT monitor that I had on my bedroom window shelf and the 17 inch Dell Trinitron monitor that I had in my bedroom closet.  I took the two Dell 19 inch monitors off the FIC server, and I put them in the same places as the monitors I threw out.  I then put on the FIC server on the left side the EIZO Flexscan L661 LCD monitor on the right side the EIZO L66 LCD monitor.  The L661 is 85 MHz,and the L66 is 75 MHz.  The L66 is nine years old and the L661 is 8 years old, but they both work quite well.  I set them up.  I keep the right monitor turned off when one turns on the monitor control panel switch for both monitors, but one can turn it on with the switch on the right side of the base at the front.  I figured when I am not using the second monitor, which is frequently, I can keep it turned off.  I watered the plants.  I threw out the garbage and old periodical literature.

Looks like Nantucket might get wet this weekend.  I hope no big trees fall down in downtown Nantucket.  Basically with tropical weather, you have to make your own best guess.  It also looks like Washington D.C. might get a bit of the same storm.  More than likely it will pick up strength once it leaves the shallow waters of the Bahamas to warmer deeper waters of the Atlantic.  Thus President Bush www.whitehouse.gov will have some more experience at home with hurricane preparedness.  More than likely the least worst case scenario is that some people might lose electricity.  I will also eat a bowl of the pineapple strawberry mixture before going to bed.

Note: <888> 09/05/08 Friday 12:15 A.M.  I woke up at 6 A.M. on Thursday morning, when a friend called from eastern Connecticut.  The friend told me was voting for www.johnmccain.com which is interesting since he is a well known Vermont liberal.  The friend also told me the Kitty Hawk is being retired, and I suggested they make it into a museum like the Intrepid.  He also told me General Dynamics is launching a new submarine that will be stationed somewhere down south. I chatted for a while about the price of tea in China.  I ate breakfast of oatmeal with honey and milk and sliced banana, a toasted English muffin with butter, and a glass of 50% passion punch and 50% cold filtered water, and a cup of coffee with milk and splenda.  I washed the breakfast dishes, and I made my bed.  I gathered some paper work together.  I chatted with an associate.  I went outside, and I threw out the garbage.  I chatted with neighbors.  I showered, and I cleaned up.  I sat out for a while chatting with a neighbor waiting for the mail to arrive.  I finally went out at noon.  I sat around the Greenwich Town Hall, and at 1 P.M., I filled out the information for my NEON energy assistance grant.  I then went to my usual 1:30 P.M. appointment.  I then went to my usual 3 P.M. appointment.  I then went by the Greenwich Hospital Thrift shop, and I bought a CuisineArt DCL8 food processor machine with two extra blades and blade elevator along with the dough blade and regular blade for $3.75.  It was missing its round white pusher, but I had a spare one off the spare CuisineArt in the bedroom closet.  I then bought an 35 foot by 40 inch roll of white Berber carpet bound with web antislip padding for $35.  I put it in the back seat, so there is not too much weight in the rear of the Audi.  I am taking both items to my relative's house in Maine. The carpet will fit well in the basement, since they got rid of the brown 24 foot by 36 inch Bigelow broadloom runner, since it smelled of cigarette smoke.  I then went by the Chase Bank on Mason Street.  I then returned home.  I picked up my mail, and the rent statement had arrived.  I went back out to the Chase Bank on Mason Street, and then I went by the Wachovia Bank on Havemeyer Place which is opened until 6 P.M., and I paid my rent to the Greenwich Housing Authority.  I then returned home.  I tested the CusineArt, and it works fine. I put it in the trunk of the Audi.  I also put the red and white 26 quart Iglo picnic cooler container in the trunk to take to Maine.  They can use it to buy cold items at www.samsclub.com or taking it to the beach, since they only have a smaller one.  I went inside and outside a few times chatting with neighbors, and waiting for UPS.  I called them after 8 P.M., but the scheduled shipment never arrived and its web page has not changed.

Note: <888> 09/03/08 Wednesday 8:25 P.M.  I chatted with a relative.  I cut the smaller diameter 40% off the two pork tenderloins off.  I then rubbed the Pyrex baking dish with olive oil and one of the larger 60% of the pork tenderloins with olive oil, and I put it in the Pyrex baking dish, and I poured a little bit Kikkoman soy sauce over it, and I seasoned it on all sides with garlic powder, ground black pepper, and Italian seasoning.    I baked it on the upper rack in the Sharp Convection microwave oven on convection cycle at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 30 minutes.  I put the uncooked pork tenderloin in a Rubbermaid container in the refrigerator.  I figure the thinner portions would take about 25 minutes.  For the last 15 minutes, I steamed about 1.5 cups of baby carrots, cauliflower chunks, and two baby red potatoes cut into fourths on a steamer tray with .75 inches of water in a Revere pot with lid.  I put the steamed vegetables in a bowl with Italian seasoning on them, a few pads of margarine, grated parmesan and Romano cheese with a small bit of olive oil over the vegetables.  I ate it all with a watered down passion punch.  One can also dip the pieces of pork tenderloin in the vegetable sauce as one eats the meal.  CIO 

Note: <888> 09/03/08 Wednesday 5:55 P.M.  I woke up at noon, and I checked my mail.  I tried to rest some more, but I had a telephone call trying to sell me the latest version of Dragon Dictate which from my experience does not work on slower machines.  I ate breakfast of oatmeal with honey and milk and sliced banana, a toasted English muffin with butter, and a glass of 50% passion punch and 50% cold filtered water, and a cup of coffee with milk and splenda.  I washed the breakfast dishes, and I made my bed.  I went outside, and I threw out the garbage, and I picked up the mail.  I showered, and I cleaned up.  I went downtown, and I went by the Chase Bank on Mason Street.  I then sat outside in front of the senior and the arts center briefly.  I then went by the Stop and Shop, and I bought two 16 ounce packages of Land-O-Lakes margarine for $1.50 each, a 59 ounce container of Simply Orange orange juice for $3, a pound of German Wondabar baloney thicker sliced for $2.98, a 13.5 ounce box of low fat Cheez-its for $2.50, two quart jars of Vlassic Kosher dill spears for $2 each jar, a 8 ounce container of Nature's Promise wildflower honey for $3.59, two 48 ounce containers of Quaker old fashioned oatmeal for $4.59 each, two 64 ounce containers of Stop and Shop lite grape juice for $2 each, two 64 ounce containers of Stop and Shop cranberry juice for $2 each, a two pack of Stop and Shop blue drop in toilet bowl cleaner tablets for $2.69, two 8 ounce Stop and Shop grated parmesan and Romano cheese for $2.50 each, a boneless pork tenderloin for $2.99 a pound for $7.18, a two pound bag of baby carrots for $2.99, fresh Chiquita bananas for .67 a pound for $1.27, a head of cauliflower for $2.99 and .16 tax for $61.05 total. I put my groceries in the trunk of the Audi, and I then went back inside the Stop and Shop, and I bought a  two pound container of red baby potatoes for $3.99.  I then returned home, and I used my folding cart to bring up the groceries, and I put them away.  CIO

World magazine.  I then went downtown, and I found a pair of black aviator sun glasses with dark grey lens but not wrap around ear pieces.  They sort of look like Porsche sun glasses, but they don't have a name on them.  I walked the entire length of Greenwich Avenue and the train station area.  I walked around the far south side of the train station.  I also used the bathroom at Starbucks.  I stopped by CVS, and I picked up a prescription.  I also bought a 1.06 ounce container of Italian seasoning for .99.  I also walked east on East Putnam Avenue as far as Mason street and back on the north side of the street.  I finished my walk.  During my walk, I chatted with a few locals.  I then returned home.  I chatted with a relative.  I put the pair of black aviator sun glasses on the oak dining table with the other glasses, and I put them in spare glass case I had.  I ate 10 dried apricots.  CIO

Note: <888> 09/02/08 Tuesday 6:50 P.M.

This morning before going to bed, I moved the brass shell lamp from the oak dining table to the computer table above the telephone tea table, so one can see the telephone better.  I put the small lamp from there at the bedroom entrance on the bookcase, and I moved the bumble bee lamp from on top of the bedroom television to the oak dining table on the rear side, so one can use it for reading in the recliner.  CIO

I gave them a key for the Krypton lock and the Master Lock with chain to secure the seat.  After they left, I found the instructions and other paper work along with two other Krypton lock keys and one master lock key, and I went over the Valley Road Post Office, and I mail them to them two days Priority Mail and for $4.80 with .65 delivery confirmation for $5.45 total.  I put in a card to hold my mail from Monday, September 8, 2008 to Monday, September 22, 2008, or whenever I show up to pick it up.  The order for four FRYS.com | Antec Antec TriCool 80mm Blue LED Fans for $3 each with free shipping for $12 total arrived.  I put them on the right cupboard sideboard in the bedroom.  My relatives brought down a 2 foot by 4 foot runner rug like I have underneath the computer chair.  I put it at the apartment entrance, so the door still clears it.  I put the white oriental rug back in the bedroom. They also brought down a navy blue 2 foot by 6 foot bound runner that I put underneath the right side of the bedroom  bed.  The living room now has a bit more room with Mongoose Mountain Bike gone.  I chatted with a relative.  CIO

Note: <888> 09/01/08 Monday 6:45 P.M.  I woke up at 1 P.M..  I had a wireless telephone message from my traveling relative that he was on the way with the family car.  I chatted with another relative in Kennebunkport, Maine.  I am now going to drive up to Kennebunkport, Maine and stay with my relative on Monday September 8, 2008.  I will stay there for about two weeks.  I will probably have to take some warmer clothes up with me.  I ate breakfast of oatmeal with honey and milk and sliced banana, a toasted English muffin with butter, and a glass of 50% passion punch and 50% cold filtered water, and a cup of coffee with milk and splenda.    We had a smoke fire alarm at a neighbors apartment, but there was no problem just smoke from a hamburger.  I called the fire department to let them know it was not major.  They sent one truck to check it out.  I made my bed.  I washed the breakfast dishes.  I threw out the garbage.  I chatted with some neighbors.  I showered, and I cleaned up.  I stood outside chatting with neighbors for a while.  I used my Stanley scraper, and I put a new Connecticut registration in my neighbor's windshield.  I notice my Connecticut registration expires on the Audi on January 2009, so I will have to pay $84 to get another one for two years, probably in December 2008.  My relative and friend arrived at 4:25 P.M..  They dropped off the family car.  I drove them over to the Greenwich Train station, and I dropped them off at 4:45 P.M. for their 5:12 P.M. train into Manhattan.  They went to get a slice of pizza at Planet Pizza.  I went by CVS, and I bought two more of the deluxe folding chairs for $7.95 both that a neighbor wanted them.  I then mailed the Microsoft Money 2006 income versus spending report for August 2008 to an interested relative.  I then returned home, and I sold the two folding chairs to neighbors who wanted them for $8.  I then chatted with neighbors.  I then chatted with a relative.  I then ate five dried apricots.  CIO
