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.

Spiderman was sold out!

Spiderman 3 came out this weekend. It seems that it is part of the popular culture that it is the "in thing" to see a blockbuster movie the first weekend of its release. It was playing at 4 out of 12 screens at the local multiplex, so we didn't think there would be a problem getting in. When we arrived at 11:45 AM all shows until 10:30 PM were sold out even though the ticket lines were short. In this day and age people can go to MovieTickets.com and buy the tickets online. We saw the move Next starring Nicholas Cage instead.
