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.

Cedric the Entertainer is the New Host of Millionaire

I have mentioned my enthusiasm for Jeopardy many times in this journal. Who Wants to Be a Millionaire is my second favorite quiz show. In fact I play the computer version every day on Facebook. Regis Philbin was the original host when the show was seen in the evening. Since the show was syndicated seen at 12:30 PM in NYC Meredith Viera was the hostess. This week Cedric the Entertainer succeeded Meredith as the host. Of course he brings a different personality to the show. He is more of an actor while Regis was a talk show host and Meredith was a new anchor.

I wish Cedric well in his new job. It will take me a little time to get used to him after watching Meredith for many years. On today show a contestant proposed to his girlfriend.
