<888> 04/22/14 Tuesday 4:20 P.M. I chatted with a friend. I put my knit caps, gloves, mittens and scarves away on the lower shelf in the sweater closet. I threw out the garbage. I sat outside for a while. I chatted with the building custodian, and I walked around the building. I chatted with the social worker. It is suppose to rain this evening, so I will not go downtown in case I might melt. I never hear from anyone in the Eastern Hemisphere, so I guess the Eastern Hemisphere has no interest in the Western Hemisphere. Maybe they do not know how to type and communicate over there in the Eastern Hemisphere. For all I know somebody cut the Trans Atlantic telephone cable.

I ate a 18 ounce can of Progresso New England clam chowder that I seasoned with dried parsley, ground black pepper, and celery salt, and I ate it all with a 12 ounce glass of Canada Dry Ginger Ale. Having spent a lot of time about downtown Greenwich, Connecticut for many years at night. The general population is fairly well behaved. However, one does deal with skunks, raccoons, coyotes, wolves, bob cats, and mountain lions occasionally, when one thinks no one is around. If one were to look on a map, we are in the north country by any stretch of the imagination. Just because the New York City media never leaves the cement does not mean wild animals are not out in the country. There are also bears in back country. CIO

<888> 04/20/14 Sunday 8:10 P.M. I threw out the garbage. I sat out briefly downtown. I then picked up my guest at 3:30 P.M.. We drove over to Tod's Point, and we sat out at the Southwest parking area enjoying the clear view of Long Island Sound and Manhattan. I guess with the higher price of fuel, there is less air pollution today. We then drove in back country Greenwich, and we toured by the Greenwich Country Club and across Clapboard Ridge Road to Round Hill Road back down into downtown Greenwich via North Maple and Patterson. I used the bathroom at Starbucks. I dropped my guest off at the Greenwich Train Station at 6 P.M.. I then sat out for a while downtown. I then went by the Putnam Shell at 401 West Putnam Avenue, and I bought $12.35 of Shell Plus 89 Octane for $4.199 a gallon for 2.941 gallons at odometer reading of 107667 miles for 47.8 miles driven since Saturday April 12, 2014 for 16.253 miles per gallon in back country traffic.

<888> 04/20/14 Sunday 2:05 P.M. I recall during a number of times I was down south below the Mason Dixon line all the way down in Key West, Florida; the locals whom were in charge would take 80 gallon oil drums and cut them in half lengthwise and weld cross braced legs of iron pipes on to them, and then they would use them for barbecue. They would fill them up with charcoal and put heavy metal grills on them, and they would have three or four of them, and they would barbecue halves of chickens with lots of southern barbecue sauce on the chickens. Hundreds of the locals would show up, and eat halves of barbecue chicken along with potato salad and cold slaw and ample beverages for a charge of $3. However, since I did not have $3, I was left observing the entire operation and starving after they all left. So much for Southern Hospitality. They did not have corn on the cob, since it was during the winter. CIO

End of Scott's Notes week of 04/19/14
<888> 04/19/14 Saturday 9:55 P.M. I chatted with a relative twice. On the Saturday before Easter in 1972, I took a train from Florence, Italy to Rome, Italy, and since I had a 7 A.M. TWA flight from Leonardo De Vinci Airport in Rome on Easter Sunday to Athens, Greece; I did not feel like paying for a hotel room that Saturday night. I wandered around downtown Rome, and I found a dark area with a large colonnade, so I hung out there all night. There were women coming and going from the colonnade in taxis. It was a short walk to the Spanish steps where there was quite a bit of activity. The Colonnade was not lit up at night and it was completely deserted and mostly dark, so I figured it was some old office complex. I only recently figured out that it was Vatican Square, and that was when http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pope_Paul_VI was Pope. Back in that period, there was not a lot of traffic in Rome as I recalled, but there were not many people around either. Thus I never saw Rome in the daytime or the Vatican for that matter except for Leonardo De Vinci airport at sunrise. I will now send out my weekly notes. I will then go to bed. Tomorrow is Easter, so have a Happy Easter, but in the Orthodox church Easter is also tomorrow which is not always the case. CIO

I sat out for a while chatting with a neighbor. I sorted through the old magazines in the magazine rack along side the left side of the Ethan Allen recliner, and I threw out the old magazines. Since I have lived in Greenwich, Connecticut; since 1962, I have been around the www.time.com magazine people for a long time. Also one of my best friends in the area from www.lfc.edu had an aunt who started and owned http://www.newsweek.com/ and a few times we have encountered the www.forbes.com family in the New York City area. Of course in Lake Forest, Illinois, the owner of http://www.rrdonnelley.com/ lived in Lake Forest, Illinois; and was also the Chairman of the Board of Trustees, when I went to www.lfc.edu .
