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.

Will Ken Jennings and Brad Rutter face off in the Finals of the Jeopardy Battle of the Decades?

So far Jeopardy has completed 4 out of the first 5 first round games of this big tournament. Ken Jennings and Brad Rutter seen above have won their games decisively. Brad Rutter has won over $3million on the show and has never lost to a human contestant. He did lose to Watson the IBM computer. When Brad was a contestant in the 1990s a contestant had to "retire" after 5 victories. Ken Jennings won 74 games in a row after the rule was changed. I am hoping that these 2 champions will make it to the finals.
