The Musings of the Big Red Car

Ed Koch, an American Original RIP

Big Red Car here. Sad day today, Ed Koch — former Mayor of New York City — has died at 88 years old.

The Boss speaks highly of Ed Koch.  Hizzoner was an original among a big band of NYC originals.

He will be remembered for many things but especially for having saved New York City from financial ruin.

Here he is on the occasion of a meeting to save Grand Central Station.  On his right is Bess Myerson former Miss America.

Here’s Mayor Koch with another of America’s favorites.  Handsome couple of fellows, no?

Rest in peace, Your Honor.  A good and faithful servant who ran a great race, lived a wonderful life and who said what he meant and meant what he said.

But, hey, what the Hell do I know anyway?  I’m just a Big Red Car.
