Midnight In The Desert

[GravitySucks]

That's BellGab...imagine eviscerating jokes you'd get from your best friend...only they could get away with it...well, that's what you sign up for here...

Here's what I've been joked bragged about:

1. Failed marriage
2. Abandoned my daughter
3. Failed business
4. Peed in a bucket on air
5. Did not graduate from any secondary school

I'm sure there is more...but, you get the idea...

FIFY

[chefist]

I must have missed this milestone...was it on an episode of Martinez Tonightâ,,¢??? 

LOL  no...way before...it's lore now...regardless of foundation...at least I'm not a child rapist! pissing in a bucket is rather innocuous...

[Tricky-D]

It's OK to split with your wife. That's perfectly understandable if things are not working out.
But to turn your back on your own children especially like in case of Vincent and his sister being 2 and 3 years old and not even provide/help
their mother financially for their upbringing is very rotten thing to do.
OK, Art's first wife two years after Art left them she re-married, new husband adopted the children,
according to Art she asked Art better not to be in contact with her and the children. To let them be.
OK. Maybe sometimes mothers asking for that because there was a lot of physical or emotional abuse towards the wife or maybe even children. 
In case of Art we know even from his own statements and from what Vincent said and wrote the Art abused her very badly emotionally.
No physical abuse, just mental and emotional abuse and degradation.

OK didn't work out with the wife, but why even for the two years before she re-married not to send them money to help with food, clothing, school supplies.
What 2 and 3 years old your own child did to you that you didn't even cared if they have food to eat.
Sometimes when children are older let's say around age of 10 and they start to talk back to you, disrespect you,bad mouth you then farther could get
upset and hurt and say ..hell with you.
But those were 2 and 3 years old babies, what did they said to you that hurt your ego hurt your emotions so badly that you turned
you back on them for the rest of your life.

Many descent fathers don't have contacts with their children and wife but they send money every month to help them out, unless mother is very well off because
of her family or her job, or her second husband.
At least help your children till they old enough to go to work.
What about at least send presents on their birthdays or grads. Nothing.

Art build his carrier his fame his wealth in big part on his children's misery and deep deep emotional pain.
Would be that difficult for him to arrange money transfers if not regularly then at least on their birthdays.
They were out of side out of mind.

OK let's say that in first few years of his carrier he didn't had too much money,really?
Really you can not save couple of hundred dollars over the year for birthday presents, really?

What about when he got really wealthy, when he became multimillionaire, when Vincent and Lisa were adults
when they contacted him, why not to be decent human being then, I'm not even talking to be descent father,
just to be descent human being and say to them here son Vincent here daughter Lisa I like to give you some cash to help you out to get better start in life.
Maybe help them with downpayment to buy homes, Art Bell was wealthy enough to do this at some point in his life.
No, he just gave Lisa his stinking book and brushed off Vincent.

And if the rumor is true that Art Bell didn't left them anything in his will to help them financially to help his grandchildren,
then sorry all Bellgabbers but he will be piece of shit in my eyes.
Yes I listen to him for solid 20 years, I same as many of you was waiting for the 10:00PM to hear his voice to hear his show,
but if before his death he didn't put their names in his will and Art Bell rejected his own seed his own first born children then I will symbolically spit on his grave.
That also applies to his third child his second son Art Bell Junior.

Some of you prefer to worship Art Bell the talk show host, and ignore his personal life and the fact that he ruined
emotional lives of his own children and build his carrier fame and wealth on their emotional pain and suffering.
SORRY I CAN NOT SEPARATE THOSE THINGS.
Humanity, parental responsibility come first, carrier fame wealth comes second.
Look at Donald Trump, he has children with 3 different wives and he loves them all.
Look at GEORGE NOORY, he is divorced from his wife but he loves and cares for his children.

Yes I cannot erase the joy Art brought me with his shows, I can not do that.
But Art Bell did that for me, he erased my respect for him and his work by the way he treated his own seed his own cildren.

For those who are not familiar here is a link to that article that Vincent was talking about in Philadelphia Weekly, by Steve Volk.

"Lost in Space"
The unacknowledged son of one of America's most popular talk show hosts works in the mailroom at Philadelphia magazine.

There is something bit strange with that link, there is 4 pages, and when I read and jump from page 1 to 2 to 3 to 4,no problem,
but when I try to jump after reading from page 4 to 1 it doesn't work and it shows "an error type a thing display"- so be aware of that.
It that case I have to use return key on my browser and pages slowly switch back.

Sorry to piss on your Parade Bellgabbers, but those are my principles in life.Yours might be totally opposite. That's cool.
After this stage is behind us ...things will settle down.
I'm really so very happy that GoodMV aka Liberace managed to introduce Vincent to us.
I'm really looking forward to his (Vincent's) podcasts. That might bring us some serious dose of healing.
And maybe Art Bell will get healing in his spirit if he is/will be able to witness that as well,
but for now: BIG FUCKING SHAME ON YOU ART BELL.
Don't repeat that in your next incarnation.   

(Art Bell if you excluded all your other children from your will you are pure human trash)
Art Bell if you provided Heather Wade with financial help before you died,let's say with the purchase of the house but you excluded
your other children from your will you are a massive piece of trash.
Art Bell listen to me, if you did good in your will to ALL your children then my respect to you and rest in peace,
but if not, be tormented where ever you are right now because of your inner ugliness.



(Bellgabbers, you can hate me now, you can call me names, whatever. My heart is pure)

I used to rationalize Art’s situation with his first two kids that he was young and stupid and since the kids were legally adopted by his ex-wife’s second husband and they took their adopted father’s last name he had no parental rights or obligations and I could see a man in that situation back in the 1960’s and 1970’s thinking it’s probably best to stay away and let his ex and kids move on. But hearing from Vincent on the Gabcast last night that Art had cut off contact with Art IV as well ended any rationalization fantasy, the guy was a fucking jerk.

Do you guys find this production (THE VIDEO IN HIS LINK) by Mr Apnea funny?
I'm pissing myself laughing and I watched it 5 or 6 times already.

[Mr Apnea]

Nope, not galore. Sounds like there are actually too few nooses if that's the case. I can see a twenty year old with a sixteen year old or something like that, but...

And of course this craphole turns so draconian we can't even have Craigslist personals anymore.

You see what I mean if you go there.

[PChirp]

LOL  no...way before...it's lore now...regardless of foundation...at least I'm not a child rapist! pissing in a bucket is rather innocuous...

Agreed 

[Jinger Rat Snapps]

There are still hard feelings about that I take it?

I will tell you what hard feelings are, japan wanted to surrender and make peace but Truman wanted to teach Japan a lesson and scare the shit out of Russia, those civilians died for nothing but an ego.

[Lilith]

Keith must be done grieving

Here in Japan Child porn is legal to buy and own, just not legal to make.

You should see what Book Off puts on the floor in SoCal...

Don Quixote in Meijirodai had some interesting things...

While I was there, I found the girls were little horndogs.  I was followed into bathrooms and around stores.  Some enjoyable, some creepy.

[Catsmile]

Then I guess his legions of fans who put him up on that pedestal and help fuel and reinforce the god-like complex are just as culpable in anything that happened during the time of C2C onward.

This is why I don't put people upon pedestals, because they are good at their jobs. I've never understood people who are starfuckers, or being starstruck. Revering strangers who have entertainment & sports careers is strange at best.

Where does personal responsibility fit in? Most fans still don't know about Arts personal life, if they are unaware of his deeds how can they be culpable? We know because we are a small band of Art Bell otakus. 

Most folks who become rich & famous are so catered/pandered to it magnifies some very ugly qualities in their personalities. Those who resist that impulse, or don't have those negative impulses have my respect, not my reverence.

Specifically go to 43 minutes in and let it play a few minutes.

holy shit.  i listened to this while i was working, and i guess i wasn't actively listening because i totally missed this.  christ almighty.

No country is perfect.  I still love Japan.

Japan is beautiful and seems like a fun place to visit but i don't want to be a gaijin nigger in their country. I know what it's like to have unwanteds in your country and i highly respect the Japanese people for not wanting outsiders there.

PRAISE NIPPON!

...and all those Chinese and Koreans Imperial Japan slaughtered...give me a break. Japan was given the chance to surrender before the bombs and after the first...they didn't...

You were followed by gaijin hunters

I think you should hold a Niagara Falls Bellgabber Boot Camp and Yoga/Yoni Massage Karmic Kamp for Oppressed Adults (NFBBCYYMKKOAâ,,¢️)

I would settle for a t-shirt.

[chefist]

Agreed, Brig...I'm for one enjoying it.

[basswood]

Wisdom.

Placing hopes in anything but principles (particularly personalities and parties) only leads to disappointment.

[MV/Liberace!]

There is a lot of occult topics that never get covered.

so you ever listen to styxhexenhammer666 on youtube?  he discusses the subject a lot.

Tourists are more than welcome, most Japanese will go out of their way for you, even short term visitors and the foreign employed but it is the foreigner who comes here looking for something they say on T.V or a youtube broad cast and think that the Japanese will grovel at their feet,, not just Americans but especially the British, Australians and Chinese.

[chefist]

Ha  People on BG have speculated he is OLG, A51D or SWT.

[Sean92008]

You were followed by gaijin hunters

Oh yeah...  Some, when confronted, were really sweet and just got caught being curious and they got to try to talk it was a positive.  A few seemed overly psycho.  Being followed into a single-occupant unisex bathroom at one store must be what Art did to Filipinas.

[Jinger Rat Snapps]

...and all those Chinese and Koreans Imperial Japan slaughtered...give me a break. Japan was given the chance to surrender before the bombs and after the first...they didn't...

Oh and the mighty Americans never did anything to any one,, you can go pound salt up some one else's ass because facts are facts.

[Lilith]

Brig dear, I have this horrible impression you are suggesting something that my weak faculties prevent me from grasping.  The velvet nap is too thick for my noggin.  I beg you, take off the glove and hit me with the mailed fist.

Nothing deep here on my part K_Dubb.  People seem to believe Art planned the entire MITD story.  Following events on bellgab, it seems to me that Heather planned it, not Art.  I remember feeling suspicious as soon as Heather started and led the Blitz thread.  Nothing intended on my part any deeper than that.

It was Heathers dream to become a radio star, not Arts.

[HumanBeing]

Yes, I've had several encounters. I got a visual in Savannah at the 17hundred90 Inn where we stayed for the night a few years back.  Felt a cold breeze go by me and there was the transparent outline of a woman with a petticoat on that went into the door of another room.  We also had the TV come off and on and other electrical anomalies like my computer battery draining quickly during that same night.

I also remember seeing my dead grandfather when I was a tyke while I was sleeping in my grandmother's house.

Had some other experiences particularly one in St. Augustine a few years back but I didn't see anything there.  I just heard a demonic cackling in my head as I was investigating this old mafia night spot that had been closed down after a murder.  I ran like hell and never looked back.  I didn't hear it with my ears but it was in my head. I never had anything like that happen since. 

Had another experience at a Civil War battlefield that freaked me out where I smelled the overwhelming scent of flowers in late October and it felt like something ice cold was on top of me.  No apparition there but something was there just the same.

Those would be the occurences I can't explain.

Wow that's a nice few personal experiences. You had gone to some of those locations knowing the history. I'm not sure I'd be eager to seek it out 
With ghost stuff I would be braver if I experienced it with others but if it were to happen when I was alone I think I'd run haha
I've had a couple weird paranormal things happen. Couple ghost things and one other that I think was an old hag type thing when I was 4 or 5.
The UFO sighting is the most clear paranormal experience I have had. One day, I don't know, I may try to get regressed just to see if there was any more to that incident.

I would not disagree with you.

[chefist]

Oh and the mighty Americans never did anything to any one,, you can go pound salt up some one else's ass because facts are facts.

Not compared to Japan, Germany , Russia, Turkey, Rowanda, etc, etc, etc...not even close....you have no facts on your side other than to clearly document your country's genocidal crimes...

Guess why no other Asian countries like Japan? Hello! I've done business for years in China...want to know that the average Chinese thinks about Japan...ha...

[ItsTelly]

holy shit.  i listened to this while i was working, and i guess i wasn't actively listening because i totally missed this.  christ almighty.

Perhaps, Marsha should be the special guest star of the next GabCast?  As Ian Punnett would say: there is a lot of material to unpack in that 3 minutes.

I can't wait.
