I got that book for my dad for Christmas. I don't think he knows who Art Bell is, it's possible he does he is an avid Sci-Fi fan but that doesn't mean he would know about Art, also I think he's a skeptic. Anyways it was my plan to expose him to Art and see what he thinks.

Did he see "The Day After Tomorrow"?

Could be worse. I've had to spend the night in Newark in the old People's Express terminal.

Dave had a guy on for that a few times..and while it wasnt bad..the guy was grossly misinformed

Was it Art or someone else that interviewed the guest that had the whole mythology built up around mushrooms?

I'll try. All depends on circumstances outside my control. Like Arts jobs.

-Just playing. I'll try not to be such an overtly offensive penguin. My apologies to you.

Thanks, because I know all the swear words in about 23 different languages and I didn't want to have to start really embarrassing you with stuff you haven't even seen on porn sites.

There are no girls on the interweb. Thats a myth. 

Well, then please watch your graphic language as a favor to this old fart.

By some strange coincidence, every one of the points mentioned here are aligned with the ongoing Democrat platform and the progressive stance on what's wrong with America. Have you considered any unaligned explanations for what ails us? Maybe you just need to do some additional reading which doesn't necessarily jibe with your previous reading. It could be jarring but being jarred can be a good thing. Please go jar yourself.

Geeez. Tough crowd.

Senda is now going through an intermediary to post here? Heh, that is kind of funny.

Didn't you get an inbox???

Trying to keep it at a level you would be able to grasp and simple enough to read with that cock shoved down your throat. =)

I enjoy legends and folklore also. 

I want to hear about elves and fairies and leprechauns.

He was just on C2C (12/21) as the new Mars guy. I wonder if we'll get some kind of a challenge from Hoaxy? Will he defend his throne? Might be pretty good! 

Crap, I might have to stay up all night again.

Go read the threads in "How to use BellGab"

Do we get a show tonight? Or should i just jerk Mr.Happy and take a nap?

I am sure there will be an MITD, but don't know who or what yet. I haven't checked OSOM.

I had enjoyed Art's show when he was on coast, I was much younger and more curious about his subject matter. I wasn't as interested this time around and grew tired of the drama. No hard feelings necessary, but don't blame me for watching and commenting as the saga continues- after all, we've been invited in. 

You are always welcome pyewacket.

I blame Jazmunda (The Destroyer). Things were going great until he started that BellPhiles podcast. 😎

Step 8 here, (VERY long list).

What an order. I can't go through with it.

But we do.

No PNI tonight but Future Theatre at 9 cent on psn-radio and my holidays stream

Is it a live show at 9?

Quote from: Chine on December 28, 2015, 04:57:06 PM
GabCast soon? Please?

MV said he is going to have "Drunken Karaoke" on New Year's Eve, but he has mentioned a new GabCast.

SIR; I DO NOT KNOW YOU!

Addict.

It appears that your "World's best site blocker/productivity enhancement tool" has morphed into the "World's best BellGab thread manager/online addiction enabling tool".

As I recall from a few glances at this thread over years, this has been and continues to be by far its darkest, saddest hour (but I didn't drop by after the Sirius debacle so that may be a contender).  I'm not saying it was substantially more friendly - it's always been contentious as hell, but more humorously so.  And the disputes were much more substantive - smart stubborn people arguing about matters of perspective, philosophy, and the significance of science and theology, etc.

I don't remember it ever being like a special ed class for adolescents acutely fixated on their anuses, repeatedly crying "faggit!" and "idjit!"  Only in the last two weeks has it felt like overhearing a 13-year-old boy shouting into his headset while playing a multiple-shooter game.  If it's become vastly more revolting and infantile in the last two weeks to intentionally stink the place up, it's been very successful.  The most vile and insipid posters are by far the most prolific now, and they're mostly just spewing bullshit back and forth to each other.  The veterans who formerly had firm control of the tone here seem to be side-lined for the most part.  But I think that even the occasional adroit jab from them is enough attention to keep the infants posting here, clamoring for another spanking.

I think your observation is spot on. I have no idea, excepting that there may be narcissitic tendencies, for someone that clearly is not interested in the success of MITD to come here and post rant after rant.

I was very active in the OSOM show threads when RCH was producing good content. Once he tanked, I posted some negative stuff in there for awhile, but it was all directed at the content of the show while it was being broadcast live. I tired of that very quickly.

I guess I am quicker to retort than I should be on the trolls, but it is because I want to see MITD to continue. I know that Art and Heather view this thread. I want them to see that there is some level of support for the show. I guess the fact that I am still a subscriber should count for something, but I guess the siren song of BellGab has me hooked too.

Hello, my name is GravitySucks, and I am a BellGabaholic.

Since all I have right now is time on my hands, I guess I am not quite ready for Step 2.

The difference being, his fans cared about him; and I'm sure some still do. He doesn't give a shit; instead he makes up some bollox about being stalked instead of just saying he really doesn't want to do it anymore. Anyone who thinks he's au fait with truth and not self obsessed probably had Father Christmas come down their chimney too.

Reminding us of your opinion is good. Buys more diapers for MV's little girl.

Praise MV!

If MITD With "Heather Wade" continues well into 2016, I predict we'll see a photo of her.. even if it's rather blurry, or she has a hat and sunglasses on.

I remember seeing a picture of her, but it was posed in a manner as to kind of obscure everyone's features. The picture, if I remember correctly, was posted on Artbell.com and it had the four people that went out to interview Art before the launch of the show.

Quote from: Yorkshire pud on December 28, 2015, 04:19:17 PM

Yeah, he repaid that in kind didn't he? "Thanks suckers, but remember it's all about me; Did I mention me? Ah yes, it's what I want, remember me? I need a mirror, because I can't get enough of me. you? Oh no no, it isn't about you. It's about me!!"

C'est la vie

Its a feature. You must have a German engineered car. Good thing you don't have a Ford truck. It would be C&W.

Quote from: bellNwhistle on December 28, 2015, 04:09:03 PM
You most definitely thought right, so thank you VERY much for the distraction! Even though it may be temporary.  I'm sort of wondering at what point Art decided that the general BellGab population was "vaguely lovable".  Neither "vaguely" nor "lovable" seem to apply. 

If you would have been active during the timeframe from about March through the launch of MITD you would have seen BellGab members playing a very active and supporting role. A lot of 1x1 intercation with Art. A lot of brainstorming which led to the grassroots blitz advertising campaign on social media. GabCasts were a weekly event that had a fairly large following in the online chat room. I don't know if it was the "best of times", but it was fun to watch.

I'm downloading the Brainwave app (free version).

I don't know what it costs now, but I think once I bit the bullet it cost me $9.99 for a bundle with 31 different presets. I meditate, and when I have troubkes quieting my mind, I break out the earbuds.

I appreciate your concurrence.

I concur with your appreciation.

Geeez Who. Post a warning next time!

Chronaut, if you have an iDevice, check out the itunes store for an app bundle called BrainWave Sharpmind. It uses binaural beats to alter the brainwaves. It can be used for inducing sleep, lucid dreaming, and even maintaining alertness. I use it frequently when I need a power nap or when I need to concentrate on mindless tasks such as pouring through excel spreadsheets. I have done independent research with it using the NeuroSky MindSet EEG monitoring devive and it is quite effective in achieving the desired "altered" state of conciousness. It is not for nefarious use. And because it utilizes binaural beats, it must be used with headphones or earbuds.

The times I have checked the android stores, that specific app was not available, but there are several binaural beat generators out there

A good open source tool I used in my research was called gnaural. Available under the gnu license from sourceforge if I remember correctly.

The advantage to the BrainWave app is that it comes with preset "tracks", an intuitive user interface and several different choices in "white noise" sounds that accompany the binaural beats.

I am not sure if HAARP is in the ELF range, but if you google ELF and Submarine you may learn some interesting things.
