God rest Paul Harvey. Dude was excellent at his job and there was a definite hole in the journalistic world when he died. I loved Paul Harvey's daily broadcasts. I didn't so much get into the rest of the story much but it was a nice breakup of the afternoon. I kick myself for not getting online to listen to the broadcasts I missed.
When I was in high school I went home for lunch during the summer, his broadcast came on. He got on his soapbox a bit and talked about the resolve of the Country. I believe it had something to do with some country pursuing nukes and the US not doing anything about it, but I could be wrong. Anyway his message about staying competitive and willing to do what it takes is critically important. Anyway, his message was incredibly profound. So much so that I didn't go inside for awhile. I just shut the pickup off and sat there for a few minutes. And it's really something that it had that kind of an effect on a 15 year old kid and didn't hve anything to do with chicks beer or sports.
He was a great man and the best at what he did IMO. The world is lacking without him in it.
