  • Francis was praying on her knees in front of the kitchen stove. She prayed for a miracle for Walter, her son. Walter's problem started as an infected hangnail. The infection had spread. To save his finger, hand, and maybe his arm, Walter needed a miracle. Find out more in this episode of Paul Harvey's "The Rest of the Story."

    A bumper sticker I had on my car years ago read: "Words can hit a child as hard as a fist! Stop using words that hurt."
    Thank you for the story.

    In 1964, he backed Mohammed Ali on the piano so that Ali could recite his poetry, about Sonny Liston, in style!!! Thanks again Paul and Brad.

    Hey Brad, I've been watching (and sub'd), to your videos for awhile. I've watched several of your older vids, and most of your more current vids, and I'm always impressed with the care and attention to detail you impart. I absolutely LOVE your current style with "the REST of the rest of the story"-- you always find that perfect harmony of relevance and history to hook our interests and imagination. Stunning! The flamboyant Liberace, with his glittery, studded suits with tails, and his mirror-speckled Grand Piano was a great story for Paul Harvey-- and you filled in the rest... The Rest of the Rest of the story"! Thank you, sir, for all you do! Keep 'em comin', Brad!

    Ok, great video. I heard sticks and stones...... I have also heard, and I like this better, "If you want friends, you have to be a friend." It seems Mr. Liberace had lots of friends, that didn't care how other people felt about him. I hope they were supportive when he needed it. On another note, how about a story of Brad Dison working for Wayne Newton? That seems to be an interesting one.

    • @BradDison

    I found that story to be quite fascinating and I do appreciate the faith he and his mother had in our heavenly Father. I also appreciate that he was who he was, never made false pretenses. I will confess that I was not so much a fan, as I was much more into Victor Borge. I'm glad he was able to laugh at his naysayers and rise to such fame with his undeniable popularity. Critics be damned!

    • @BradDison
      @BradDison  Před 10 měsíci +1

      I've never listened to much by Victor Borge. I'll have to take a listen. I enjoyed watching him because of his flashy style. I didn't really understand it because I was so young. I just accepted that it was a part of show business. Floyd Cramer was my favorite though. Sorry, Lee. :)

    Words keep hating inside us. When the bruise fades away, the broken bone heals, and the damaged torn muscle mends, a line of specific words continues to damage for a lifetime. Hastening the tongue is an art that can save anothers lifetime of quiet pain.

    ".. teens hated him.." As a preteen and through my teens, my mother loved to watch his performances while I and my siblings couldn't stand him. He was talented, but none of us had much appreciation for piano players, probably due to the horrible timing and excessive loudness of our church's piano player.
    She was convinced that her imminent discovery and Stardom -- was right around the corner...
    (😮 she suk't before people were saying that)
    Anyway, lacking an appreciation for his talent, we of course, focused on his "weirdness." We were too young to know anything about the "effeminate" or what was called "homosexuality" before it became "gay." He was just !Weird! and something was just plain "!WRONG!" about him -- Men just didn't talk or act "that way."
    Our responses/revulsion weren't learned, it was a purely natural reaction coming from our limited experience with -- normal -- Midwestern people.
    Instinct? Insight? Who knows?
    But our reactions had nothing to do with our romantic insecurities...

    • @BradDison
      @BradDison  Před 10 měsíci +1

      I remember being fascinated by his piano playing from an early age. I liked to watch him perform just to see how crazy it would be. I had no clue about his sexual preference at the time--I was really young--but I enjoyed watching him play. My favorite was Floyd Cramer though. Sorry, Liberace. :)

    PS The kid in the bathing suit (silver color, caution green 💚 color stripes) did they find her. The suitcase was in a swamp area on federal property on a dirty road. People littered along the road. Now, if other children are litter, where will I find other litter.

    I called before to see if you wanted to look at the suit case before I threw it away. Why send People to the same places? Children, leave prison, I am tired of you and me being targeted.
