Widner developed this site that has audio clips and information on programs popular in the 1930's and 1940's.  Old Time Radio is easily navigable by type broadcast: Radio News, the commentators (who can forget Edward R. Murrow) and the events, Mystery series ('Who knows what evil lurks in the hearts of men, the Shadow knows!) with such beloved actors as Orson Welles, Basil Rathbone to name a couple, Private Eyes, Comedy, Science Fiction, Captain Midnight, Terry and the Pirates and Special Logs for some of Mr. Widner's sources.  If these sections are not detailed enough, there are special Radio Recall Articles for insider information on some of the beloved characters and happenings in the field of radio broadcast.  Invite the whole family to crowd around the speakers and listen to your favorite program just as families did in that bygone era of radio!  (Warning: Be sure to inform your listeners that War of the Worlds is just fiction, not a happening; we certainly don't want a repeat of the mass hysteria caused by the original airing!)

Proverbs Plus A camel never sees its own hump. -- African Proverb And Then There's...   It is difficult to see the picture when you are inside the frame. -- R.S. Trapp  Reader's Digest CyberSmiles Lisa, my co-worker at the bus company, needed to send a letter of apology to a customer whose trip was a complete fiasco from start to finish. I reminded her of a similar situation a year earlier, and dug out the letter I'd written then. "All you have to do," I told her, "is change the details, the date and the name." She looked it over and smiled wryly. "We don't need to change the name."  --Contributed to "All In a Day's Work" by Susan Rutledge Smiles, grins & humor from the files of Reader's Digest!
