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.

1408 on the 4th

I took Lee to Cunningham Park this morning and observed that at 10 AM and observed that early in the morning all the spaces for picnics were filled. I guess people wanting to have a barbeque have to get there early or they will be shut out. In the early afternoon we went to the local multiplex and saw the movie 1408. It was a cloudy day and the complex was crowded for a summer holiday.

Dave wanted to watch the Twins-Yankees game. . .can you believe Twins won! After being soundly trounced the first 2 games, I was sure it would be another stinging defeat for our Twins, so Dave was one happy camper after that game. I opted to go to a movie with a friend. No -- did not see 1408. . .was thinking it would be too extreme for me to enjoy, so we went to "Evan Almighty." Beautiful scenes with the animals, but, other than that, sort of a boring movie to my taste. The comedic moments were rare. But it had a good message for families about doing things together. I guess the Slotsky family carries through on that since Lee was with you on the baseball tour. . .job well done, family members! Louise; July 5, 2007 at 9:57 AM
