Paul Harvey died today
Paul Harvey, the news commentator and talk-radio pioneer whose staccato style made him one of the nation's most familiar voices, died Saturday, ABC Radio Networks said. He was 90.
Harvey died surrounded by family at a hospital in Phoenix, according to ABC Radio Networks spokesman Louis Adams, where Harvey worked for more than 50 years. No cause of death was immediately available. http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/c...,6120173.story |

Paul Harvey Ruled. I loved "The rest of the story".
My favorite involved a story of a couple staying in their camper. They heard a noise outdoors and scratching/banging on the side. The husband went outside to see what the ruckus was all about and noticed a hose sticking in the side door and a gas can. The potential gas-thief was rolling around on the ground, writhing and vomiting. While he had been attempting to syphon gas, he had put the hose into the septic tank and had sucked a mouth/stomoch full of dump. Paul Harvey, you were a hell of a radio guy. Good Day. |

Major Bummer.
I wondered if he were having health problems, I only remember hearing him do the show a time or two in the last 6 months.

I think he was probably having "being 90 years old" problems.

Harvey was the man....as a kid I always pictured him looking like the guy who was the prosecutor on Perry Mason.

I wonder if they'll seamlessly weave an advertisement for TempurPedic mattresses into his eulogy.

I have vivid memories as a kid of riding with my dad in his truck when Paul Harvey was on the radio. I was probably too young to understand most of the stories, but I always loved listening just for his sign off.
Good Day, Mr. Harvey. |

They'll definitely use a BOSE sound system to deliver his Eulogy.
