I am big into radio and was enjoying Paul Harvey on the radio here in Des Moines. Never really listened to him much or appreciated him so much as lately but knew of his broadcasts well. He had great values and midwestern appeal, even lived/worked in my hometown (Chicago).
He made you think and understand concepts, when he told his story. Using the appeal of logic/truth, he was able to drive home the underlying meaning behind a particular story.
He was controversial even, one who came out speaking the violence of Islam in Iraq in 1993, which I appreciate, but had to come back and say Islam was a religion of peace after some Islamic public protest.
His voice will be missed but we do have his son to carry on the tradition and values.
I do have hope he is with God because of this Larry King Live interview, where he said faith was important (mentioned John 3:16 and talked about his baptism later in life).
I'm going to have to try and learn more about the life and broadcasts of Paul Harvey, as I know so little.
I spent a lot of time on the L, and walking far from the Loop. That's where the roaches live. Incestuous slime, the Black Gangster Disciples, the Vice Lords, the Latin Kings. Then the Crips, the Jamaicans, and other fecal matter. Scum. The thug mentality has reached into the crotches of many young men's minds. A combination of insecurity, poverty-mindset and broken families have confused them what it means to be a man.

With all the noise about Drew Peterson , Rod Blagovich and the Barack Obama gaff , it is fun to see something cool.
