Ed Again: That Ed Koch, he knows...

Ed Again: That Ed Koch, he knows just what to say. The feisty former New York mayor stopped to visit Ronald and Nancy Reagan late last week at the former President’s Century City office. He praised Reagan as the best U.S. President for Israel since it was created, and said: “Kitty Kelley should be taken out and horsewhipped.”

All in a Day’s Work?: The nation’s “baddest bosses” got their comeuppance last week when Robin Robinowitz of the Women’s Alliance for Job Equity announced the most outrageous tasks bosses asked of their secretaries. The winner: the married boss who used his secretary’s name to buy plane tickets for himself and his lover. The plane crashed, injuring the duo. The wife found out, divorced him, and in the ensuing shake-up at work the secretary was laid off because the boss gave her job to his lover. Robinowitz said despite the group’s “light-hearted” approach, “it’s disgusting that women still have to endure these outrageous non-job-related duties.”

He Won’t Tinker: TV producer Grant Tinker is finding little interest among publishing houses for his planned memoirs. He apparently doesn’t want to say anything about his marriage to Mary Tyler Moore, sticking to the nuts and bolts of his TV career. But a publishing source told New York magazine: “I respect his desire for privacy, but it’s like Joe DiMaggio writing about his life and refusing to discuss Marilyn.”

Royal High: Prince Andrew, a helicopter pilot with the Royal Navy, said being in combat during the Falklands War was addicting. “Combat is almost a drug, it’s a ‘high,’ ” he said recently in London. “Some people want more and more and more of it. The first time, you do not know what you’re letting yourself in for, the second time you do, therefore in a strange way, it makes it worse but you’re prepared.” Andrew, second son of Queen Elizabeth II, saw combat during the 1982 Falklands War against Argentina.
