Bruce's Journal

Bruce Slutsky was born in New York City in 1949. I retired six years ago after working as a Science/Engineering Librarian at the New Jersey Institute of Technology in Newark for 25 years. I was married to Karen until she passed away in February 2021. I have a son Lee who is now 35 years old. I am very much interested in the popular music of the 1960s, especially Bob Dylan and the Beatles. I am interested in rock and roll radio. I am an enthusiastic fan of the New York Mets.

Bad Rainstorm today

Ther was a bad Nor'Easter today which dumped over 5 inches of rain with heavy winds over the NYC area. I just can't stay cooped up in the apartment so we walked very fast to the local multiplex to see "Are We Done Yet?". What can I say? A little water never hurt anybody. The Met game at Shea was obviously rained out so at 4 PM we turned on the Yankee game at Oakland. The Bronx Bomber were winning 4-2 going into the bottom of the ninth. Mariano Rivera gave up a three run home to Marco Scutaro with two outs to blow the save. Well Din, your Yankees are not invincible.

Anonymous said...: Yeah, the Yankees are in trouble. At least every Yankees fan is learning about the farm system because at this rate, in a couple of weeks the Yankees could have three minor leaguers in their starting rotation.

The Nor'easter was bad enough to shut down classes at Rutgers-New Brunswick today. Why was it not bad enough to shut down classes at NJIT? Why????; April 16, 2007 at 10:25 AM
