Actually, Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play on June 1,
1947. On October 15,
2005 your truly started Bruce’s Journal.
My first entry was very brief as I just described the family going to
see a football game at Hofstra University.
At first, the journal was published as an AOL Journal, but when that
service was discontinued in 2008, the journal was transitioned to Blogger, a
service of Google. I was able to get a
domain with my name.
Over the years, I have just kept on writing. The entries ranged from the ridiculous to the
sublime. Some were thought out in
advance, while others were written spontaneously. The topics in no particular order include:
- Baseball – especially the New York Mets
- Oldies Music – On some days I post a song that comes to mind
- Bob Dylan
- Jeopardy
- Museum trips
- Movies
- Radio broadcasting
- Family outings
- Autobiographical Information
I rarely discuss politics, which I despise, especially over
the past 10 years. I try not to get too
personal, as I believe that certain issues should be private. I am always careful about what I write since
anyone can read it.
I have written 5289 entries over the past 20 years. This amounts to 264 entries annually,
or approximately 5 each week, which means that some days are not documented.
According to Blogger, there have been over 7 million hits,
but I sense that most of them are from robots.
I wonder how many of those hits are from real people. Blogger states that 45% of the hits were from
China. I am certain that all of those
hits are from robots.
I post most of my entries on Facebook, so I am aware of a some
regular readers. A few have contacted me
saying they read it regularly. I will
not ask for feedback as I know that most people are anonymous when they surf
the web. Many hits are likely from
Google searches.
Thanks for reading, and I will continue with Bruce’s Journal.
I will not post Sgt. Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band Reprise
