Note: <888> 12/07/04  Tuesday 8:10 P.M.:  I put three teaspoons of olive oil and three pads of margarine in my 10 inch omelet pan, and I heated it over medium high electric heat, and once the fat began to bubble, I lowered it to a little lower than medium.  I had already broken three eggs in a metal bowl, and I added a couple of tablespoons of milk, and I mixed it altogether with a whisk.  I added the egg mixture to the omelet pan, and I let it head until it was solid enough to flip over.  I then flipped it over with a spatula.  I then let it heat a little more until that side was cooked a little bit and it was puffy.  I then slid it on to a microwave proof plate, and I added one sliced vine ripen tomato sliced into 1/8 inch thick slices and 3 triangle shaped  slices of Norwegian Jarlsberg cheese five inches high and three inches at the base by 1/16th inch thick, and seasoned it with Italian seasoning, and I put it all in the microwave oven with a microwave cover, and I heated it on reheat for half of the normal cycle to melt the cheese and warm the tomatoes.  I then put the microwave proof plate with the open face omelet on another plate, and I sprinkled it with grated parmesan cheese.  I also added two slices of toast with two slices each of margarine, and I cut the toast in half.  I ate it all with a glass of iced tea.  CIO

Note: <888> 12/07/04  Tuesday 2:30 P.M.: I updated Windows Media Player version 9 to version 10.  I ate two pieces of black licorice.  There is one republican Arkansas Lieutenant Governor Win Rockefeller and Win Rockefeller for Lt.

Note: <888> 12/06/04  Monday 8:50 P.M.:  I made my usual salad www.geocities.com/mikelscott/salad.htm .  Instead of tuna fish, I used the remaining cold eye round of beef, and I cut four 1/4 inch thick slices beef, and I cut them into half inch wide pieces.  For the cheddar cheese portion, I used Norwegian Jarlsberg cheese.  I used a vine ripe tomato instead of a plum tomato.  I used all of the other regular ingredients.  I ate the salad with a glass of iced tea.  I put on my GAP www.gap.com full length long underwear on underneath my leisure clothes.  CIO

Note: <888> 12/06/04  Monday 7:15 P.M.:  I went out after the last message.  I went by the Arnold bread store outlet, and I bought a loaf of 100% whole wheat bread for $1.45.  I then went to my 4 P.M. appointment.  I next drove down by the waterfront.  I then drove through town, and I was told that the Korean vegetable and fruit store Greenwich produce might be reopening, but it is still closed.  I then drove by CVS, and I bought five Gillette www.gillette.com  Right Guard Xtreme sport invisible solid anti-perspirant deodorant cool peak 2.8 ounce for $1.99 each, 10 Beach Cliff 3.75 ounce tins of sardines with water for 2 for .99, five Star-Kist solid white albacore tuna fish for .99 each, and a 2.75 ounce jar of Gold Emblem cinnamon for .88 less a $4 off store coupon plus .15 tax for $16.88 total.  I did not walk, since it is very cold and damp out.  I next went by the ATM machine at Putnam Trust Bank of New York on Mason Street.  I then went by the Greenwich Library, and I read the Greenwich Time.  I next went by the Stop and Shop, and I bought vine ripe tomatoes at $3.49 a pound for $4.82, Chiquita bananas at .69 a pound for $1.74, and a 20 ounce bag of Tostitos restaurant style corn chips for $2.99 for $9.55 total.  At the current price of tomatoes, I might not be able to keep buying them in the future.  They did not have any quarts of plum tomatoes for $3.99.  I then returned home, and I drank some iced tea.  On Sunday, I put $5 more on my laundry card, so I have $17.85 total on it.  CIO  

Note: <888> 12/06/04  Monday 2:50 P.M.:  I reheated in the microwave oven in a microwave proof plastic pot with lid a 18.8 ounce can of Campbell's Chicken and Dumpling soup which I put a hand full of Arnold crotons in, and I ate it all with a glass of iced tea.  I will now shut down the computer, and I will clean up, and I will go out.  I have a 4 P.M. appointment.  CIO

Note: <888> 12/06/04  Monday 11:55 A.M.:  I noticed when I went out that somebody shot pink paint balls at the electricity power transformer and on the east sidewalk.  I hope they don't start hitting cars with them, which would be considered a felony.  I am not sure what type of pink paint it is and whether it washes off.  Danbury Hyundai took the $120 cost off my www.myecount.com card, so the jacket is now paid for, and the sale went through their VISA machine.  I guess they will ship it to me when it arrives to them at the end of the week.  CIO 

Note: <888> 12/06/04  Monday 11:40 A.M.:  I was up at 8 A.M..  I ate breakfast of oatmeal, toast with strawberry jam, orange juice, vitamins, supplements, and coffee.  I received a telephone call from Danbury Hyundai http://www.danburydodge.com/hyundai.htm , and for my jacket order, they needed the full account number from www.myecount.com , which I came them along with the correct expiration date.  After breakfast I called them back, and they told me they would not run the Hyundai rebate card through the VISA machine, until they received the jacket.  Thus with the shorter 10 digit number on the card, the $120 balance still shows up.  However, one can not enter the longer 16 digit number at www.myecount.com which is on the card form letter, which is the number that Visa will accept along with the correct expiration date.  They said they would ship me the jacket when it arrives, and the $120 on the card should cover shipping and taxes.  Well, we will have to wait and see what happens.  I looked for one of my SCOTT stickers to put in my Volvo back window, but I could not find one, but I did find small 3 inch by 5 inch U.S.A. flag sticker, so I went outside, and I put the U.S.A. flag sticker in my back passenger side Volvo window just above the Greenwich Country Day alumni sticker.  It is a bit cold out Weather Underground: Greenwich, Connecticut Forecast .  I picked up my mail.  My www.sierratradingpost.com order shipped today, but it does not yet show up on DHL www.airborne.com tracking yet.  CIO

Note: <888> 12/05/04  Sunday 9:05 P.M.:  I heard a bit of news from the other walker today.  In the economically depressed dairy region of upstate North Tarrytown, New York, to make ends meet on the dairy farm, they built a small restaurant in one of the dairy barns.  I can not seem to find a listing for it one the internet, but this link might have some reference material available Rockefeller Sites .  I just chatted with a relative.  CIO 

Note: <888> 12/05/04  Sunday 8:35 P.M.:  I was up at 11:30 A.M. this morning.  I had breakfast of oatmeal, toast with strawberry jam, orange juice, vitamins, supplements, and coffee.  I cleaned up, and I went out.  I drove downtown.  I walked with another regular walker, and I walked up Greenwich Avenue and west of west Elm Street, and we stopped by William Pitt Real Estate http://www.williampitt.com/ .  We then went by the Greenwich Library.  We next walked east on Putnam Avenue as far as Christ Church.  We then walked back west on Putnam Avenue, and we stopped by Whole Foods to sit outside at the outdoor tables.  We then walked down Mason Street, and we walked back west on Benedict Place, and we parted company around the senior and the arts center.  I then sat out for a while, and I used the bathroom at the senior and the arts center.  I next walk back up Greenwich Avenue to the ATM machine at Putnam Trust Bank of New York on Greenwich Avenue.  I was told that when they scratch one's paint job on the car, it is called "keying" the car, because they usually use a key.  I learned a trick or too when I was young, and if I found the individual, I would throw a balloon full of pink paint at their car.  I next drove down by the waterfront, and it seems like there is still life out on Long Island from my viewpoint.  I then went by Radio Shack in Cos Cob.  I next went by the Greenwich Library.  I then went by the Stop and Shop, and I bought five 6 ounce dry cans of California medium black pitted olives for .99 a can, two 8 ounce bars of Cabot Cabot Cheese - award winning Vermont cheddar Vermont Monterey Jack cheese for $2 each, two 28 ounce bars of Goya chick peas for $1.19 each, and fresh broccoli crowns at $1.69 a pound for $1.66 for $12.99 total.  I then returned home.  I made my usual salad www.geocities.com/mikelscott/salad.htm .  Instead of tuna fish, I cut three 1/4 inch thick slices of cold eye round of beef, and I cut them into half inch wide pieces.  For the cheddar cheese portion, I used Norwegian Jarlsberg cheese.  I used all of the other regular ingredients.  I ate the salad with a glass of iced tea.  I chatted with a relative.  I changed my order at Hyundai Motor America from the XXXlarge to XXlarge for the lightweight microfiber jacket 100% polyester and 100% nylon taffeta lining Eisenhower type light jacket in Khaki color which I used my Hyundai $120 rebate www.myecount.com card to order from Danbury Hyundai for $109.65.  They will call me to confirm the order, and I might have to pay tax or shipping.  I then went to http://www.smokemcheapcigarettes.com/ , and I ordered 10 cartons of Seneca Ultra Lights 100s box for $11 each for $110 plus $1.20  each postage for $12 for $122 total.  I have three cartons currently, but I wanted to order enough to take me through my January 12 return from my week trip to Florida.  CIO   

Note: <888> 12/05/04  Sunday 4:25 A.M.:  I was just thinking if there are any places like Buckingham Palace or the White House that are getting too expensive for their respective governments to maintain, they could just put a few polar bears or white bears in their fenced in compounds, and it would tend to deter intruders, and more than likely might attract more tourists in their urban environments.  Of course somebody would have to pay the bear keepers.  I remember when I was in turkey in May 1972, lots of the young boys would be seen strolling the streets with their pet bears, which seemed to be a quaint custom, of course they were young bears too.  Thus I would imagine a few people in the north country probably still keep pet bears, but the last one I recall seeing one in terms of polar bears was Scandia at the Central Park Children's Zoo, but Scandia looked awfully cramped in her small cage, so maybe they returned her back to the wild, and maybe Scandia got home sick and returned back to the New York area looking for free meals and lodging.  The December 2004 World Wildlife Fund calendar www.wwf.org is a picture of Polar Bears, and a British lady that use to live in my current building use to keep a picture of polar bears on her front door.  Well, anyway I am tired, so I will now shut down the computer, and I will go to sleep soon.  CIO

Note: <888> 12/04/04  Saturday 10:25 P.M.:  I made my usual salad www.geocities.com/mikelscott/salad.htm .  Instead of tuna fish, I cut two 1/4 inch thick slices of cold eye round of beef, and I cut them into half inch wide pieces.  For the cheddar cheese portion, I used Norwegian Jarlsberg cheese.  I used all of the other regular ingredients.  I ate the salad with a glass of iced tea.  In the old days around the family homes in this area, we use to use this group of people http://www.pinkertons.com/ whom still are working this area.  If the local business community has to use their services more, then the prices for their respective services will have to reflect the additional cost of security in other words the price of fuel will be going up.  I will now shut down the computer, and I will clean up, and I will go out.  CIO

Note: <888> 12/04/04  Saturday 8:45 P.M.:  I went outside with my Husky 2.25 million watt lantern, and I checked the perimeter of the building, and I checked out my Volvo.  There are actually two six inch scratches on it, and a 15 inch scratch on it, so if I had the authority, I would give the individual 27 months in jail, when I catch them.  Although I have an older 10 year car, in an area like Greenwich, Connecticut where automobiles can frequently cost over $100,000, we take vandalism very seriously.  On an expensive car repairing scratches can cost thousands of dollars, so it would be considered a felony crime.  Also since the gasoline tank flap was tampered with, it would seem we have gypsies in the area trying to steal gasoline out of automobiles.  Whether it happened here at Vinci Drive or elsewhere downtown, it is hard to tell, but it seems like it happened downtown last night.  The Greenwich Police department told me, they are going to increase patrols in the downtown area.  I am charging up the Husky 2.25 million watt lantern, which takes 12 hours for it to be fully charged or when the green light comes on.  Of course, I do not have any legal authority to convict somebody of vandalizing my Volvo, but I know plenty of other people that do.  Somebody also scratched my Hyundai in the same location on the driver's side rear panel, and it was parked at the same location at the Board of Education, and as I mentioned before it was youngsters from Cos Cob that also scratched Nazi graffiti and racial slurs on the Greenwich Board of Education Van at the same location, as it was reported at the time in the Greenwich Time.  I just finished chatting with a relative.  Some neighbors downstairs are watching the Dutch opera on television.  CIO
