Today while I was downtown, I found a very small little clear plastic envelope with two tiny fuses and two tiny LED lights in it. I put it in the top drawer of the night stand underneath the IBM ThinkCentre in front of the mahogany bureau. Somebody obviously lost some very tiny parts. CIO <888> 12/09/14 Tuesday 12:15 A.M. I stumbled across this http://bochs.sourceforge.net/ and http://emulators.com/ while I was looking for an Apple Emulator. This might work http://www.redmondpie.com/how-to-install-os-x-snow-leopard-in-vmware-windows-7-9140301/ or this http://www.top-password.com/blog/install-mac-os-x-snow-leopard-on-a-pc-using-vmware/ and you need to buy this $19.99 plus tax Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard.

I drove East on West Putnam Avenue and left on Valley Drive to a right on Glenville Road to a right at the Lake Avenue Circle to South on Deerfield Drive, and just before West Putnam Avenue across the street to the west of the Greenwich Library, I turned into the Deerfield Drive entrance of the new www.chase.com bank, where the old www.exxon.com service station used to be. They only have about eight parking places on their upper level outside parking, so I parked in the lower level underground parking which has more parking places. I walked around on the driveway to the front entrance instead of taking the elevator. They have a drive through ATM machine on the west side, but it might be a drive through teller, I could not tell. There is also an outside ATM machine at the front entrance. They should have an inside ATM machine, so somebody can write to endorse checks out of the elements. I made a small withdrawal. They gave me two Chase ball point pens. They have another ATM machine at the teller counter, but one can only make a maximum of $25 withdrawal there, which is not very much money by Greenwich, Connecticut standards. I then exited the new Chase Bank by the Deerfield Drive exit. It is hard to get into the far left of three lanes to make a left turn onto West Putnam Avenue, so I took the center lane to Field Point Road, and turned left on East Elm Street to make it to downtown Greenwich. I then walked the entire length of Greenwich Avenue and the train station area. I stopped by the www.apple.com computer store. They told me they do not sell their operating system separate, so one can use the Apple Emulator with a PC DOS Windows device to run the Apple operating system. They told me the military use their Apple laptops as is. I stopped by the Senior and the Arts Center, and I chatted with the person that told me about green tea pills. I used the bathroom there.

I then went by the Chase Bank at the top of Greenwich Avenue, and I got some parking change. I then sat out for a while at the top of Greenwich Avenue. I then chatted with a local Norwegian American electronics engineer whom was cold. I gave him a quick briefing about what I have been doing. I finished my walk, and I sat out for a while. I then went by Zen Stationary, and I bought an Ace's High scratch card for a dollar, and I won $2 for a dollar profit. I then chatted with a local dog trainer and his client about dogs.

I put a 15 watt CFL bulb in the bumble bee lamp. CIO <888> 12/08/14 Monday 12:50 P.M. On a minor note, the new www.chase.com bank on the west side of street from the Greenwich Library is suppose to open today. I will go out and do errands after I shower and clean up.

I chatted with a relative. I ate a ham and American cheese sandwich on toasted 15 grain bread with Hellmann's olive oil mayonnaise and a dill pickle slice and Lays sour cream and onion potato chips, and a 12 ounce glass of www.coke.com . I threw out the shipping box that the most recent IBM ThinkCentre arrived in.

I then drove around downtown Greenwich Avenue where the annual Christmas stroll was going on. I could not find a parking place down by Starbucks, because the Board of Education parking lot was full of food vending trucks. I drove over to the rear parking area just east of J.P. Morgan. The Greenwich Baptist Church gave me a coupon for a free cup of coffee at the Belgium Bakery shop on lower Greenwich Avenue. http://www.shrevecrumpandlow.com/stores/greenwich-jewelry-store.aspx is now opened in the old Putnam Trust Bank building.

I took the socket switch out of the small Bumble Bee lamp, and I put it in the white ceramic lamp. I then put the white ceramic lamp on top of the speaker on top of the rear of the Epox computer in the living room with a 75 watt CFL light bulb. I put the light green cardboard lamp shade that I bought from Restoration Hardware store a few years ago on it. I put another lamp shade on the lamp in the bedroom. I put the Bumble Bee lamp on the Abit computer, and I will get a socket switch for it, when I have time.

I will next install Norton Internet Security on the second partition. I never use the IBM ThinkCentre along side the Ethan Allen recliner. It is probably my best computer setup. As a Microsoft OEM whom never made any money, I just keep it as my primary demo computer, as if nobody else has ever seen the Microsoft product. Alas after I sold my used www.apple.com IIE desktop computer about 24 years ago for $179 profit, I could never afford to buy another Apple product for better or worse. If one looks at http://scott-mike.com/computer.htm , it shows what I have managed to piece together in the PC DOS world over 24 years of trial and error and limited income. Basically my computer setups are good for web browsing and shopping, word processing and printing, email, communications, money management, desktop and internet publishing, and playing music, and that is about it.
