The Night of Silence

And now you know, the rest of the Christmas story

I miss Paul Harvey.

Paul Harvey, for those of you who don’t know, was on the radio for about 80 years. He died in his 90s, if I recall correctly, and had been in radio since he was a kid.

One of his best bits of business was The Rest of the Story. He would tell you exactly what happened, and leave out one little detail that made the twist. Maybe he’d tell you the main character’s nickname before telling you how you know them. Maybe he’d tell you about an event that you never knew impacted your life, or how it influenced history.

In this case, this is the story of a mouse who was going to make one Christmas a truly Silent Night

If you do go out of your way to look him up online, see if you can find a player that will not spoil the ending for you.

And now you know, the rest of the Christmas story.

And while I think of it, consider giving out books for Christmas.
