Former Mayor Ed Koch showed that recent heart surgery hasn't affected his personality. According to the Post, Koch showed his spark at a breakfast fundraiser for Manhattan DA hopeful Leslie Crocker Snyder: "Recounting his first trip to the supermarket after leaving office, Koch said dozens of average citizens went out of their way to thank him for his service. Except one, who snarled, 'You were a terrible mayor!' 'And I say to him: "F--- you!"' Koch told the crowd." The 84-year-old opined about Big Apple residents, "We walk faster, we talk faster, we think faster... I’m a New Yorker and Leslie’s a New Yorker." And the former Mayor is also back to reviewing films for The Villager—he liked Whatever Works and Lorna's Silence!
Former Mayor Koch Still Sassy!

It's great to see that my all time favorite mayor ("Hey, how am I doing?") is still doing so well.
Koch is definitely losing it.
He recently sent me a 'thank you' card for the "get well' card that I sent to him in hospital.
Except I never sent him a 'get well' card.
I said 'hello' to him once ten years ago.
Figure that one out.
God bless uncle Ed. May he live another 84 years.
Except for his selection of Ben Ward as police commissioner, he was one of the greatest NYC mayors.
And now his endorsement of the wicked witch.
Ed Koch would be a top choice to invite to a dinner party.
But, his administration was so corrupt 3 out of 5 Borough Presidents (when they had real power) were indicted. City For Sale wasn't just the name of a book about his administration. The man himself was/is honest, but didn't seem to care he was surrounded by scum looking to cash-in.
Some of them later said they were laughing at him behind his back, hoping he would win higher office so they could take over.
ah, Donald Manes. the good old days.
ask any old timer that was around back then. they knew who the power brokers were for their borough.
And who doesn't miss the Board of Estimate? *sniff*
