Note: <888> 03/10/11 Thursday 6:20 A.M. Recently I have noticed a lot more air traffic flying at high altitudes over New York City, so possibly somebody out there has some extra fuel. I have been sleeping more recently trying to relax and reduce stress, so hopefully some time in the future I might manage to quit smoking cigarettes and get healthier. I have very low blood pressure, so on days when it rains and the barometer is low, I feel tired. I made two calls to out of town security agencies. Basically on Greenwich Avenue, one sees anyone whom happens to show up out of the Metro North trains running in this area. There are local people in this area whom tend to know each other and also tend to network with each other, since the out of town people seem to think we are a lot of simple minded rural people. We do have a lot of younger people whom watch a lot of television here, but we also have an older community with worldwide experience. They tend not to be too friendly with me, since I do not have extra money to buy their confidence for whatever that might be worth. I do have an informal group of friends that I chat with based on my experience, and not the New York City chamber of commerce experience. A lot of times when New York City people come out here, they are trying to network with somebody out here that has connections with New York City. Basically from a business point of view, even if they do not want to buy over priced real estate here, since a lot of the visitors are always walking the local business people are always trying to sell them a car.
