Happy birthday on Thursday to that other favorite son of Jersey born on September 23, 1949... Bruce Springsteen.The eldest Mackey brother, John, was born that day as well. Both were born in what is now Monmouth Medical Center in Long Branch. I often wonder if Mom and Mrs. Springsteen ever crossed paths in the maternity ward that day. I also wonder if my dad and Bruce's dad got to talking about what sort of sons or daughters their newborns were going to be.
All that ever happened on my birthday was the premiere of "The Yogi Bear Show" in syndication. And you know what? I probably watched Yogi Bear that day. "Sure, Doll, put on some cartoons for the twins, it'll entertain them." (Thanks, Dad.)
