As a kid growing up we listened to the radio a lot. Sure, we had TV, but some stories were best told on the radio. There was a guy called Paul Harvey who told stories. They were always interesting because at the last would be some trick ending. He always prompted the punch line with the words: "and now for the rest of the story..." With a deep voice and an ingenious use of pauses - during which the radio would hum while we hung on the edge of our seats, he provided what I later came to recognise as art.
