I will now shower and clean up. CIO Note: <888> 05/28/12 Monday 2:45 A.M. Happy Memorial Day. I woke up, and I ate a few day old muffin. I woke up at 7 P.M., and I chatted with a friend who is getting Tropical Storm Beryl National Hurricane Center . I woke up again at 9:30 P.M., and I chatted with a relative. I finally woke up at 1 A.M.. I ate breakfast of oatmeal with honey and a sliced banana and milk, a toasted English muffin with extra virgin olive oil, 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 ate 8 Triscuit crackers with .20 inch by 1.25 inch by 1.25 inch slices of Cracker Barrel Vermont extra sharp cheddar cheese. I noticed downtown, there was a sign for the SeaFair The Mega Yacht Venue which I guess is back in town down by the waterfront at the Delamar Greenwich Harbor, a luxury hotel in Fairfield County CT . However, I don't drive down by the waterfront to the Pier on Steamboat Road anymore, since the Spanish speaking fishermen down there don't like seeing Northern Wharf Rats. Besides it saves a dollar in gasoline. Indian Harbor Yacht Club - Public might still have people that speak English, but I was never a sailor along the waterfront, but an average golfer at the GreenwichCC - Golf & Country Club until around 1976, when the family fell on hard times, and my father had to start building oil refineries again Engineering Consultancy and Project Management Services - AMEC , but since I don't know that business, I never made any money, and I ended up as dishwasher pot scrubber for minimal wage out at Le Languedoc Bistro a Nantucket Restaurant and Inn. Serving French cuisine on Nantucket for over 30 Years out on www.nantucket.net until I returned to Greenwich, Connecticut in December 1983 during a major economic recession and started collecting disability income for a long term disability. However, I do know computers and the internet having worked with them since September 1989, when I bought an Apple www.apple.com IIE computer at a tag sale on Round Hill Road for $100 from somebody that worked for J.P. Morgan in Belgium. The house was near the His Highness the Aga Khan's 75th Birthday - Mowlana Hazar Imam's 75th Birthday - December 13, 2011 , so maybe the Apple IIE that I sold after a few months for $249 had good karma, but I invested the money in a Compaq 286 for about $250 at a tag sale in New Canaan. I later sold the Compaq 286 for about $200, and I bought a generic 386 for a $1,000 from the Consignment Express downtown which was a major investment. I just chatted with a relative who just swallowed her new molar crown and has to wait for it come out. CIO Note: <888> 05/27/12 Sunday 8:25 A.M. I went out to the ever glamorous Greenwich Avenue. I walked the entire length of Greenwich Avenue and the train station area. I sat out at various locations. I picked up two Metro North train schedules at the Greenwich Train Station lobby that are good until July 1, 2012. However, I never go to Manhattan, since they only permit younger people there. I noticed in front of CVS, there was a double parking meter that had broken off at its base and was lying on the ground. I called the Greenwich Police non emergency number to tell them about it, but nobody responded to take it away. At CVS I used the bathroom. I bought two 8 ounce Mrs. Field's individual wrapped for freshness macadamia nut cookies for $2.50 each box for $5 total. It was raining lightly as I walked down Greenwich Avenue. There were two painters out painting fronts of stores. The one just north of CVS was wearing a T-Shirt that said http://www.warburg.com/ that Online Trading, ETFs, Mutual Funds, IRAs & Retirement - Fidelity had given him. After my walk, I sat out briefly in the rain. I then returned back to my apartment complex. I waved at a neighbor. Not much going on in Greater Southwestern Greenwich, Connecticut.

Recently I have noticed a new trend on downtown Greenwich Avenue. All of the garbage cans on lower Greenwich Avenue are no longer filled to overflowing with www.starbucks.com coffee cups, but they are filled to overflowing with Pinkberry Frozen Yogurt frozen yogurt cups. Pinkberry is on lower Greenwich Avenue on the east side just across the street from Häagen-Dazs® , so they must be taking away from the ice cream business. PinkBerry has a comfortable ice cream parlor like sitting area with very good handicap access for elderly and disabled people. I have noticed recently in my walks downtown at night with the higher prices of fuel Greenwich Gas Prices – Find Greenwich, Connecticut Gas Stations and Cheap Gas in CT at Automobile Magazine that business downtown at night at the pubs and restaurants and coffee shop and CVS appears to be down by about 60% to 70%, so despite the daytime activity, the night time business is down substantially.
