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.

Glad to hear that Former Mayor Koch is feeling better

Former Mayor Ed Koch is a regular guest on Mark Simone's morning show on WABC radio. Mayor Koch recently underwent open heart surgery and was hospitalized for several weeks. He was interviewed this morning by Mark and reported that he has been home for about two weeks and is on the mend. The two discussed President Obama's health care proposals among other topics.

I don't want to get involved in political discussion here, but one can not argue that Ed Koch is one of the most colorful elected officials in recent history. I am glad to hear that he is doing better.
