RIP.
I lived around the block from him for a while. Had my disagreements with him politically, he often infuriated me, but he was often entertaining.
Rest in Peace Uncle Irv, and say hi to Louie Farfallitis from Schmentzeputzin.
Oh wow, this is terrible. I practically grew up on talk radio with Irv Homer on WWDB. I met him once, and still have a pocket copy of the Constitution he autographed for me.
Irv ran for Vice President of the United States back in 1972 (I believe was the year) with that fellow from New Jersey who had that military junkyard you passed on the way to Long Beach Island. He had hand-painted signs all over his fence with things like Nixon’s head on the body of a rat and the words, “Nixon: red rat traitor.”
Grim Reaper working overtime today.
Herb?
As you know Jamal was convicted and sentenced to death for the December 9, 1981 murder of police officer Daniel Faulkner.
I recall that because of his support of Mumia Abu-Jamal I and my family refused to listen to his talk show from that time on.
