Paul Harvey

As a kid I traveled with my family on many road trips to Florida, listening to squabbling siblings and the crackling of whatever AM radio stations we could pick up in the family car. Inevitably, a familiar voice would crackle through the radio: that of Paul Harvey. I was sad today to hear Harvey died yesterday. He was 90.

I didn’t always agree with his politics, but Paul Harvey always had something interesting to say. He was a blogger decades before blogs.

Good day, Paul.

  1. He spoke of some things I hadn’t thought about and broadened my thinking a bit. I didn’t always agree but you are right in saying he was interesting. I loved his voice. I’m sure if blogging had begun earlier, his would have been stellar.

  2. My dad made us listen to him on trips to Michigan. All 4 of us kids hated having to sit thru “the rest of the story”. I found myself looking for it on trips much to the dismay of my 4 kids.
