I took a Freschetta® Unsurpassed Fresh Taste in Frozen Pizza 24.62 ounce four cheese self rising frozen pizza, and I put it on a round pizza pan, and I seasoned it with garlic powder, celery salt, ground black pepper, Italian seasoning, oregano, grated parmesan and Romano cheese, and extra virgin olive oil, and I am baking it in the Sharp convection oven on the raised rack at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 22 minutes. I will eat half with a 12 ounce glass of Schweppes Ginger Ale and a cup of green tea with splenda sweetener and Borden's lemon juice. I will refrigerate the other half in a flat Rubbermaid container.

I will leave them on the back seat of the Audi the next time I go out to have them available for observation. I have a pair of Zeiss binoculars underneath the driver's seat of the Audi, but one of the eye pieces is missing, so they are awkward to use. On the way home, I stopped by the Arab oasis better known as Putnam Shell at 401 West Putnam Avenue, and I bought $9.05 of self service premium V-Power gasoline for $4.399 a gallon for 2.057 gallons for 23.9 miles driven since Wednesday May 9, 2012 at odometer reading of 69,907 miles for 11.619 miles per gallon in mostly local night traffic.

If one enjoys eating, one should research Monsanto and Monsanto - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia . My father Louis Dale Scott was with the Chemstrand a Division of Monsanto from 1954 to 1968, so possibly some of my disability problems might be from increased chemical exposures having grown up in that environment, although I did not work in their factories. I was around Acrilan carpet. Also a lot of house's garages were full of Chevron and Ortho chemicals used for gardening purposes. Of course in America which has become a toxic waste dump, pretty much everyone is exposed to hazardous materials. Even the energy saving light bulbs have mercury in them. CIO

I had a telephone call from http://www.pcrichard.com/ , and I renewed my air conditioning contract on the Frigidaire Model FRA086A17 Frigidaire Window-Mounted Compact Room Air Conditioner for $53.11 good through May 24, 2013. Since the unit is about the most powerful unit that will fit in my living room window opening, I feel it is important to keep up the service contract if I can afford it. They now cost around $300, so it has gone up in price since the $220 plus tax I paid for it two years ago. The Frigidaire is 18.5 inches by 13 2/5th inches which is the size for my living room window opening, but it might actually be 12.5 inches high, so any replacement air conditioner would have to be those dimensions.

Since there are so many television channels and so much news off the internet anymore, nobody seems to know what to focus on anymore. Thus I do things based on my limited experience living in this modest rural community all of these years. I do have a bit of New York City experience, but I never had much money in New York City, so I just walked around a lot and went to the Metropolitan Museum of Art quite a bit. I also would go to a few pubs at night and observe the student crowds in the old days. However, at my advanced age of 62 years old, I think I would be expected to go to more upscale places. I did learn from experience in Manhattan, a lot of the seniors on the east side in nice weather sit in Central Park along the benches that face into the park with their backs facing Fifth Avenue. A lot of them have their health care workers with them. Of course anyone can show up and use those benches, so not all of them are from the local neighborhood. There is a small park on East 57th street on the East River off Sutton Place that is not too busy. www.rockefeller.edu has a small campus on the East River off York Avenue in the East 60s adjacent to the Cornell Medical Center and New York Hospital. They have a cafeteria there that is not too expensive. The library has a lot of books on Chinese Medicine. They employ quite a lot of Nobel Laureates, so it tends to be a rather brilliant group of people. Of course I have not lived in Manhattan since February 1982, when it was minus 26 degrees Fahrenheit after Mount St. Helens erupted two years before. I did visit it when I moved back to Greenwich in December 1983, and after a few times, I quit going there. When I got a used yellow Volkswagen Dasher in October 1986, I started driving around the area more, and until about 20 years ago, I would occasionally drive into Manhattan. I had a bad experience about 20 years ago, so I have only been to Manhattan three or four times since then. With current costs on my budget, it is too expensive for me to explore Manhattan anymore, but I see lots of people on Greenwich Avenue coming and going from Manhattan, so I get to see bits and pieces of Big City life.
If one has to go to the bathroom while in the East Side of Manhattan, there is a bathroom at the Waldorf Astoria, the Plaza Hotel, Rockefeller Center lower level, the lower level Citicorp Plaza, Rockefeller University, and the Metropolitan Museum of Art. A lot of those I found convenient when walking around midtown Manhattan. I am told that since the www.un.org is a diplomatically neutral zone, one can smoke tobacco on its premises. Many other hotels and stores and restaurants and bars have bathrooms, but they are harder to find. One has to be Street Smart when walking around Manhattan to observe the pedestrian and automobile traffic patterns which can be very dangerous. In the period I was there, the Swedish and Norwegian consulates were at the Random House building on East 49th street just east of Third Avenue. The British consulate is around the corner on Third Avenue. The Danish consulate is at 49th street and 2nd Avenue and the German consulate is at 49th street and First Avenue. The Hyatt Hotel just west of the United Nations has a nice Piano Bar. The United Nations neighborhood has a lot of publishing houses. Tudor City is a larger older apartment building complex just west of the United Nations. It has court yard like park areas.

Note: <888> 05/13/12 Sunday 10:20 P.M. I cut up the remaining half pound of rotisserie ham into small pieces one to a few inches in odd shapes. I put four tablespoons of olive oil in a frying pan, and I heated it over medium high electric burner heat, until the olive oil was hot, I added the ham, and I seasoned it with garlic powder, Montreal Steak Seasoning and Italian spices, and I sautéed it over medium electric burner heat, until it was hot. Before cooking the ham, I had broke three extra large Eggland eggs in a bowl and added a few tablespoons of milk and Italian seasoning and celery salt, and whisked it all together. I added that mixture to hot ham, and I mixed it together and let it heat, and once the eggs had began to harden, I scrambled it all together for scrambled eggs and ham. I put the hot pan on a dinner plate to warm the plate, and once the plate was warm, I put the ham and eggs on the dinner plate with a toasted English muffin with olive oil. I ate it all with a 12 ounce glass Schweppes Ginger Ale and a cup of green tea with splenda sweetener and Borden lemon juice. Thus the seven pound A&P Fresh rotisserie ham that I bought on Saturday May 5, 2012, produced 9 dinner meals over the next nine days. CIO

Note: <888> 05/10/12 Thursday 3:40 A.M. As I have explained to a few people recently, my 1998 Audi A6 1998 Audi A6 owned by Michael Scott and 1998 Audi A6 owned by Michael Scott has one slight problem. The passenger side front electric window does not work. One would have to go through this procedure to fix it Audi A6 Power Window Repair - YouTube . However, I am not sure if the inexpensive plastic clip is still available. I also do not want to risk breaking the glass in the procedure. I have propped up the window closed with a board, and disconnected the power switch. However, when one slams the door, the board can become unstuck and the window will gradually slide down. Also I am afraid to put the Audi through the car wash in case the window should slide down. I am not allowed to wash the car in my public housing parking lot, although it is a public street. Also I do not have a water hose. The reason for washing the car, is so that I can wax the Audi with The Final Detail - Car Spray Wax that I have which would only take about a half hour, since one does not need to buff it. When I go up to Kennebunkport, Maine Kennebunkport, Maine, Scott's Internet Hotlist and Kennebunkport, Maine, Scott's Internet Hotlist in mid June 2012 for a two week vacation, I guess I could wash it and wax it there. The only other thing I know about the Audi is that it is suppose to have the brake fluid changed every two years, and I have not done that in the four years that I have owned it. It would cost about $250 to have the brake fluid changed at New Country Audi of Greenwich | New Audi dealership in Greenwich, CT 06830 and about $400 to fix the window there. According to Official Kelley Blue Book New & Used Car Values - Kelley Blue Book , the Audi in Excellent Condition which it is besides the window is worth $4,473 and very good condition $4,248, and good condition $4,148, and Fair $3,623. It is fully maintained with recent tires also. However, on limited income, I don't feel the need to invest anymore money in the Audi at the moment. CIO

Dear Friends,
The Connecticut Department of Transportation (DOT) and MTA Metro-North Railroad (MNR) announced today they accepted of the 100th M-8 rail car for service:
This symbolized these organizations' commitment to improve rail service on the New Haven Line with more and more M-8 rail cars being accepted and placed into regularly scheduled train service. Customers should now be seeing nearly a third of weekday trains and half of the weekend trains operating with the new M-8 cars.
M-8 trains operate during peak and off-peak time periods, weekdays and weekends, between New Haven, Stamford and Grand Central Terminal.
This is an excellent milestone in the effort to provide riders with better comfort and safety as they use our state's rail system.
Best regards,
Livvy Floren, State Representative 149th District

Note: <888> 05/07/12 Monday 11:30 P.M. I watched Episode 1 of Season 2 of "Sherlock" off the internet which is available for a few days from www.pbs.org . Well, since the Western Hemisphere is pretty much isolated from the Eastern Hemisphere, we get a bit curious about how the modern world has developed over in the Eastern Hemisphere. Since I have not been over there since the Winter Olympics in Albertville, France in February 1992, I have been in exile here for another 20 years. However, the longer one lives here, the more one gets use to the Stockholm syndrome - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia living on the quaint edges of America. I guess the British have been here so many times, they really do not feel they need to come here frequently anymore to practice their American dialects. I remember some of the 1960s British television programs, and a lot of the British in those television programs were probably too cleaver, but possibly not for modern technology. Probably the Favorite British television show of all time was The Prisoner - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia which was what living in an Anglophile community in America feels like. The Canadians are even afraid to communicate with us, since they see us more frequently than some of the people from overseas. How we came to live in this situation is beyond me, but I guess it comes from experience. There are so many people in Europe with skills, about the only job available in Europe for an American is living as an Unemployed American, providing they can afford to pay for it. Of course I have seen so many British citizens come and go over the years, it is hard to tell if any new ones are showing up anymore. I am sort of curious as to where all of the British citizens that once lived here are, if any are still alive as to where in the world they might have retired to. Maybe they are all in retirement homes in New York City. Still I am familiar with Greenwich, Connecticut, although it can be expensive to navigate around it. I guess the older generation is still becoming familiar with the internet, or at least those whom were late to go online. However, a lot of people are probably talked out or blogged out. I have a comfortable enough life here in America, so I am not complaining, but I am sort of curious as to why people have lost interest in reading books or similar content as opposed to the chit chat on the internet. I guess everyone is curious as to what people have done with their lives, only to find out that their friend my age and older are retiring and tend to be a bit forgetful. So many people have lived in this area over the years along with all of the people who regularly travel through this area, it is sort of hard to stage a stroll up memory lane in terms of the downtown area. Also a lot of the back country areas have changed with the large number of McMansions that have been built to accommodate those people whom like walking around in large homes all day. I find living in a small apartment, once one gets use to it, involves less walking around, so I have more energy once I am rested to walk more frequently downtown which costs me about $2.75 round trip to investigate. The commuter crowd comes and goes, but they generally do not linger downtown too long. I have been able to save a bit of time by not going to Greenwich Library to see whom is just sitting there waiting around watching the world go by. Of course as I get older it takes longer for me to do my household routines. I guess I will now shut down the primary work computer, and I will go to bed soon. CIO

!!!!!! Note: <888> 05/07/12 Monday 11:00 A.M. On a matter of Hype. I have been using the internet and reading tech news for over 20 years, and recently I have been watching the Bloomberg business news, since the people at www.chase.com watch it at 19 West Putnam Avenue. Bloomberg had been promoting the IPO for www.facebook.com at being worth $100 billion which is quite a lot of money even in this country. At last count worldwide Facebook supposedly has 450 million users, but obviously not all of them use it very much. That means 450 million users divided into 100 billion dollars, that each Facebook user is worth $222.22222222222 . Quite frankly I don't think my Facebook Account is worth $222.22. If one valued each user at say 25 cents, then Facebook would only be worth about $112 million.
Facebook made $225 million last year, so they made 50 cents for each account. Thus they think that the valuation of the company is worth what it would make in over 400 years. I saw on the business news that one of the founders of Facebook bought a town house
On West 10th street in Greenwich Village, thus it would seem to me that the Socialists in Greenwich Village have no real value of what money is worth.
I did see today on the business news that the Chinese bought 65 tons of Gold from Taiwan, so that is what the Chinese are doing with their money.

One could use a cheaper cut of bottom round of roast which is on sale at the Stop and Shop through today for $2.49 a pound or half price, but there would be more fat in the stew, but in a slow cooker the meat probably would not be any tougher.

I put half in a large Rubbermaid container with lid in the freezer and the other half in a large Rubbermaid container with lid in the refrigerator. I ate about a half cup to taste it, and it is most excellent. With the Reynolds slow cooker liner, one does not have to wash the inner ceramic container. However, since it is very hot, one has to let it cool down, and one does not put it underneath water particularly cool water, or it might crack with the quick temperature change. I took the ceramic container out of the outer container, so it cools down more quickly, and I am let it sit on the wooden cutting board while it cools down. I will now go back to bed. CIO

Note: <888> 05/02/12 Wednesday 7:15 P.M. I unpacked the Hamilton Beach slow cooker. I read its instructions. I washed the inner pot and its lid. I moved the CuisineArt and the Braun coffee maker from the center kitchen counter to the dining room table to have out of the way. I put one of the Reynolds slow cooker liners in the inner container.
I basically prepared this recipe Slow Cooker Beef Stew I Recipe - Allrecipes.com .
I diced the CAB top round eye round of roast into 1/2 inch to 1 inch cubes, and I put them in the slow cooker.
Since I was using 2 and 2/3rds pound of meat, I used 1/3rd of a cup of flour and bit more pepper and salt to coat the meat.
I also used two large diced cloves of garlic, two bay leaves, two teaspoons of Lea and Perrins Worcestershire sauce, one large diced white onion, four peeled and diced medium potatoes, 1.5 pounds of sliced baby carrots, and a 8 ounce box of sliced mushrooms, and I also seasoned it all with Italian seasoning, basil, oregano, celery salt, and Maggi seasoning, and I also added about a quarter of a cup of extra virgin olive oil. I also mixed a 1.5 ounce package of McCormick slow cooking beef stew ingredients with a 14.5 ounce can of College Inn Beef broth. The recipe says to cook it on low for 12 hours. However, the McCormick recipe says to cook it on low for 8 hours. I also have the Reynolds liner sticking up and not folded down against the lower hot outer slow cooker, so it won't melt. Thus I started the Hamilton Beach slow cooker on low for 8 hours which will be ready at 2:30 A.M. I have it sitting on a wooden cutting board on the center kitchen counter with the stove fan on low. I did not use celery. I will check it to see if it is done at that time after 8 hours. Since I probably won't be hungry at than hour of the morning, I will transfer the cooked stew once it is done to large Rubbermaid containers and refrigerate some and freeze some.

I used to own a Mercedes Benz like this at 1952 300B and a 1961 300 C . In 1968, the 1952 300 B Mercedes Benz costed me $300, and the 1961 300 C Mercedes cost me $450. After spending a few years restoring 300B from 1968 to 1971, I had thousands of hours in it and about $4,500, but I was only able to sell it for $1,250 to a pharmacist from Watertown, Massachusetts. I had red Naugahyde put in it instead of leather which effected its value. Also sedans command less value as opposed to coupes and convertibles.

The reason a lot of people don't network with me is that I still smoke cigarettes. Back around 1964, when my family lived off Round Hill Road, I was hiking through the woods with three friends.

On I-80 West it is 2,856 miles from Greenwich, Connecticut to Malibu, California. Since on the highway, my 1998 Audi A6 gets about 24 miles per gallon, it would take 119 gallons to drive there, besides any other wear and tear on the Audi along with tolls and oil. Thus at about $4.80 a gallon for self service premium gasoline, it would cost $571.20 to drive across country to be ignored in California's version of a coffee shop.

Drug Drop off in Greenwich, Connecticut:
April 24, 2012
Dear Friends,
This Sat - April 28th is the 4th National Prescription Drug Take Back Day
The improper disposal of pharmaceuticals and over the counter drugs can hurt our environment and health.
Some drugs cannot be safely flushed or poured down drains because wastewater facilities are not designed to remove them. In some cases these drugs can find their way into our lakes, rivers and streams and into drinking water. Our environment depends on the proper disposal of prescription drugs. Even expired medicines can serve as potent pollutants to our lands, waterways and especially Long Island Sound.
Leaving unused or unwanted medications in the house can lead to unhealthy or illicit use. Children, babies and pets who have accidental exposure to medications can face long-term health problems and even death. Adult and young adult family members can also be harmed by taking drugs that are expired or possibly not for their intended use.
We are fortunate in Greenwich to have a drop off site to bring unused and expired prescription drugs available to us not only for this particular day, but every day, around the clock:
Greenwich Police Department - 11 Bruce Place (Drop box located in the lobby)
We encourage you to take advantage of this reminder, do some "Spring Cleaning" and dispose of these hazardous matierials properly.
Best regards,
Livvy Floren, State Representative 149th District
Lile Gibbons, State Representative, 150th District
Fred Camillo, State Representative, 151st District

I used a serrated knife, and I cut off the top and bottom and sides, and then I cut it into lengthwise half inch thick slices, and then I cut it into half inch to three quarter inch cubes. I put the fresh pineapple cubes in a mixing bowl, and I added two tablespoons of Angostura Bitters and a third of a cup of Borden's lemon juice, and I mixed it all together, and then I put the pineapple mixture in a large Rubbermaid sealed container in the refrigerator. Back in the early 1970s, when I chatted with Helen Kress Williams who had stone pineapples on the gates of her waterfront estate in Oyster Bay, Long Island, she told me the pineapple was the Christian symbol of hospitality coming from the missionaries from Boston whom went to Hawaii. I threw the pineapple peels in a plastic bag down the garbage chute adjacent to my apartment.

Possibly it is the Nvidia 6200 update, because I seemed to be having Video problems and startup problems, before the problem above, so possibly it was not the Apple Ipod Media player.

I bought four 16 ounce boxes of Barilla linguine for $1 each box, eight 24 ounce jars of Ragu chunky spaghetti tomato sauce with garlic for $1.67 each, a 8 ounce Stop and Shop grated parmesan and Romano cheese for $3.39, and four 15 ounce cans of Chef Boyardee ravioli for $1.25 each for $22.37 total. I then went downtown, and I walked lower Greenwich Avenue and the train station area.

I walked as far north as Elm Street, when it started to rain. I returned to my car. There was a black Volkswagen sedan from Santa Monica, California parked next to my car, when I parked. I then returned home. It is exactly six miles round trip downtown for me going east on West Putnam Avenue from Vinci Drive and down Greenwich Avenue to the senior and the arts center and back up Mason Street and west on Elm Street to north on Benedict Place and back west on West Putnam Avenue to Vinci Drive. Thus it costs me about a half gallon of gasoline or $2.30 to go downtown round trip and back when there is no traffic in the evening. I said hello to a neighbor. I put away my groceries. CIO

Back in the 1960s, my family attended the Round Hill Community Church, Greenwich, Connecticut . However, my branch of the Scott family has parted to the four winds over the years, and lived many other places, so we are not commonly associated with the Round Hill Community Church in Greenwich. Some member of my family are established at Saint Ann's Episcopal Church, Kennebunkport Maine , since with the much higher taxes in Greenwich, Connecticut, they can no longer afford to live here anymore. After having done my major in Economics to get a B.A. from www.lfc.edu , I did a minor in Fine Arts which involved traveling in Europe, where I studied and visited many old Christian places that many people are familiar with here in America.

I used a thin coat hanger, and I unclogged the tube with hot water too, but I could not reassemble the device, since the end of the rubber tube would not stay on the base unit half inch long nipple and kept sliding off. I put the parts in a plastic bag on top of the Ritz crackers underneath the toaster at the kitchen entrance. Technically one could try to keep the rubber tube on with a small hose clamp that would be difficult to install in the interior base unit. I guess the CVS antibacterial soap clogged the unit. Possibly one should use a 50% antibacterial soap and 50% water mixture. The other bathroom unit still works though, but it is a different model. I moved the Lysol antibacterial soap dispenser from the bathroom sink to the right side of the kitchen sink. CIO

I was told that the old Greenwich Radio station building next door that has been restored is going to be a health club. I then went downtown, and I walked the entire length of Greenwich Avenue and the train station area. I sat out at various locations. I found a genuine United States of America One Dollar Bill in front of the Belgium Bakery on lower Greenwich Avenue. It is from the Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland, Ohio serial number "D 66161218 F". Since it has three sixes in the serial number, I call it the Devil's Dollar Bill. Pinkberry on lower Greenwich Avenue Pinkberry Frozen Yogurt | Pinkberry Location | Greenwich is very popular with the after dinner crowd. I chatted with repair people working on the front doors of the Apple computer store. I recommended bullet proof glass from Diebold - Self-service, security and service solutions . The repair people claimed that one could not break the glass doors, which everyone in the area knows is not true. I recommended them installing insulation strips on the sides too, so they would not loose heat and cooling out of the building. I toured CVS, and I chatted about photography with the photography department. If you go in there when they are not too busy, one notices all sorts of items that one does not notice, when they are busy.

The new consignment shop is opened on upper Greenwich Avenue with a full stock of items including lots of modern jewelry. Officer Raccoon was patrolling the small park across the street from CVS.

Note: <888> 04/04/12 Wednesday 11:05 P.M. On my first trip to Florida on my own during the third week of September in 1976, I had already filed for unemployment insurance in Stamford, Connecticut from my previous employer of Daniel Construction in Greenville, South Carolina. I had limited funds, but I had Allstate Insurance of my 1966 Chevrolet Biscayne, so I was able to cash a $20 check at any www.sears.com store on the way down to Florida or in Florida. Thus I saw a number of Sears stores. I already knew Arthur Wood Junior who had gone to www.harvard.edu and his father at the time was the President of Sears. When I arrived in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, I maintained a low profile. I refiled for unenployment insurance in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, but it did not arrive in the mail in Key West, Florida until April 1977, so I was in Florida on minimal funds. I met Wiley Middleton who was a retired www.cadillac.com dealer from Manhattan, and he was friends with Brian Hibbs who was my age. Brian advised against staying in Florida in the summer, because the heat was so bad, one had to cool off underneath the shower every hundred yards on Fort Lauderdale Beach. Brian was from Cheshire, Connecticut, and he grew up a "Towny" around the www.yale.edu campus. Brian's father worked for the John Hancock Insurance company out of Boston. Thus at Halloween Time in 1976, when I made my first trip down to Key West, Florida, it was with Brian Hibbs. Everything was boarded up, and there were not many people around. Although I knew Rob Glore in Key West, I did not look him up. Jimmy Eldert did not show up in Key West until about February 1977, when it was busy. The renovation of the Casa Marina Hotel was being done by a friend of Jimmy Eldert's name Chris Ray. Chris later died in a plane wreck in Lake Placid, New York where he was helping build the Winter Olympics compound there. Jimmy Eldert's family owned a bank in New York State. The Casa Marina Hotel renovation for the Marriott Hotel chain was being financed by the Equitable Life Insurance Company out of Chicago. When I was down in Key West around Jimmy Eldert's friend, Brian Hibbs showed up out of Fort Lauderdale, Florida, but Jimmy did not like him, so Brian left shortly there after. Since the most frequent car around the Casa Marina Hotel, when I was in Key West, Florida was a black Mercedes sedan from Missouri, I assume other people from the Midwest were also there along with a lot of Canadians.

A good indicator of price inflation is 2010 Mouton-Cadet - Bordeaux White (1.5L) - Varmax Liquor Pantry which has doubled in price in the last few years. I imagine since gasoline is much higher in Europe, the Europeans do not drive as much as we do, so they probably drink more wine and alcohol.

I had not seen any of his concerts on television over the years, since I have been busy on computers, but he seems to be good as ever, and a lot of people still seem to like him. The Beatles were basically my first introduction to British Culture, when I was a teenager. CIO
