Summary
Aside from sharing a love of opera, Scalia said the two "liked nice wine" and were born in New York "around the same time.""Different boroughs a few years apart, but I think they were kind of familiar types to each other, and their spouses were also good friends," he said.Scalia called Ginsburg's late husband Marty Ginsburg a "good cook" and said his own father was a "good eater" — something he said was "another bond they shared."He said "they made each other laugh" — and the pair's bond also occasionally extended to the courtroom."She said at one point that when they were judges together, initially on the appeals court, they sat next to each other and my dad would whisper jokes to her during arguments," Scalia recounted.
