Art Bell

[Mind Flayer Monk]

He suffers from very rare so called 'Dick Gravity Syndrom' ,DIGRASY, as is known in medical jargon.
Symptoms are that gravity force is pulling his tiny dick down, his dick can not 'get up' you see.

I think you are confusing him with Jean Claude Van Damme, as seen in this video, 50 seconds in.

I'm sticking to this:

"I have to spend some "quality" time with my Dentist in the short term, jeez I hate Dental work."

So bell/gabbers don't count for Art to be on BellGab audio podcast next week /Thursday/,
he is already setting up an ecxuse to,.. quit that podcast.

Don't get me wrong, I like Art as a radio host, (listen to him for aprx 25 years)- but he lost me
when he was stubbornly insisting here that Heather is doing ... great job.

I don't have any expectations for Thursday's Gabcast.  I think it would be even better if Heather was on the line too.  But if you're waiting for Art to make some sort of announcement, I think you'll be disappointed.  It's nice that he's humoring his fans by appearing on the podcast but it's probably mostly because he feels like it will create some goodwill.  I wouldn't want to end my career as a controversial and hated public figure.

I think it's a safe bet that he feels doing the show will create some goodwill. But the net effect, when all is said and done, could be positive or negative. He needs to weight things towards the positive, which doesn't just mean thinking positive and sounding upbeat; he needs to bring some other positive element to the party. That could be some kind of announcement.

It's one thing to "want to believe" but it's another thing to believe the emperor is clothed.  Repeatedly saying it's so doesn't make it so.

I agree with your logic here, Pi. I would like to add; any "announcement"-- most likely would be just another dangling carrot. Nothing substantial or a permanent fix. IMHO, of course.

I think it would be better for Art to confess like this: OK guys, after massive dozes of Viagra did wear off, I can clearly hear now that Heather...sucks....sucks big time and I'm not going to take it any more.

That would be a start  Mr.Art

Do tell...

[Auslandia]

 He's a showman. Of course he's going to spin a web of buzzing interest in a way that only he can. But I think as long as the question stay directed, it will be a revealing podcast. If it's just a bunch of  Roswells, I'll tune out

sorry, don't understand what you mean by:  "Do tell..." ?? , tell what ?
I was just suggesting what Art should tell on Thursday

one question: Art, do you really-REALLY honestly believe that Heather W. is doing GREAT JOB as a radio host at MITD, as you mention that several times.
If you never meet Heather at BellGab , or in person, and hear her on the radio, would you really think she was doing great job Art - ??

Prediction: Art would say of course, yes....so this question would be redundant...

I appreciate the feedback, though!

what is the best evidence of ufo or paranormal do you have, and what crazy ass guest do you find the most credible.

to me it is impossible that so many people here (who LOVE Art as a radio host), ..don't agree with him
when comes to Heather doing GREAT JOB...that those people are that wrong, it is impossible to me to believe that they are just...wrong, and Art is 100% correct.

Something is ..fishy here, and the bad fishy smell is coming from  Nevada direction in my opinion !!

What does it mean when there are no questions you would ask Art?

[Value Of Pi]

My question is as follows.

Art, you've said many times how good a job you think Heather is doing. Would you consider suggesting to Keith that she move from MITD to her own show, where her talents could be even better applied? Many listeners have commented that paranormal type subjects might not be the area she could be most successful in -- and maybe it would be best for her and MITD to find someone else to fill in for you on MITD as needed. What do you think?

Follow up questions: Gentle prodding, nudge nudging, and if need be, the "C'mon man" sound clip from the ESPN guys.

EDIT:
If all else fails, promote them and kick them upstairs (where they can do less damage).

My first is why lend your name "artbell.com" to a show you do not control?

My guess is that Keith forgot his Wordpress password, and it was easier to change the DNS record than it was to reengineer the website.

that is a good one !!

Heather even said on last GabCast that any new music she likes to play must be approved by Art.,
go figure.......

[Mr. Fidget]

take this!

You sure have some circumspect thought there.

Mr.Fidget
as I said in my previous post to you, at this time only God can help you.
I feel something recently happen in your life and it did trigger that pain from 20 years ago,
and you feel very lonely right now, and old painful memories came to the surface and 'killing'
you now.

Please Mr. Fidget , say a very simple prayer , (even if you don't believe in God),
ask for strength in overcoming this pain from 20 years ago,  pray in simple sincere words,
repeat your prayer and one moment help will arrive, you will feel your pain gone,
...you will be free from it, you just have to do it , pray , otherwise you will continue to be in this pain.

My prayer is with you Mr. Fidget , maybe others here also ....

with Love, theONE

Yeah, some divine intervention is always good.
I appreciate your sentiments.

Well, for one thing the Evil Doers and resources they used to blacklist you would have been freed up to blacklist others instead.

Who knows what slipped by because they were focused on you instead. 


The Singing Fish on the Wall?



Plastic Wishbone?



Doggles?





We may never know, but you, sir, have performed a great service - taking one for the team, so to speak

You made me laugh, thanks. I was the "blacklist lightning rod".

[Mr. Fidget]

I'm just getting caught up on all this  and I'm not sure what in the sweet Christ the point of talking about it is?

We may have that in common.

[chefist]

good catch

[theONE]

I would not be surprised if Art would buy back that radio station in Pahrump Nevada he used to own,
and give it to Heather ...

[Mr. Fidget]

I met the man in person 20 years ago. We run in some of the same circles, and in fact, the members of the anarchist co-op I'm affiliated with remember him well and hold him in high regard. While I don't know Mr. Fidget any better than I know anybody else here, I believe that he and I live similar lifestyles, and speaking for myself (not for him), I can say that mail-order anything can get a little problematic at times.

That was the number one reason people who requested signed, high quality MiTD posters from me went largely un-replied -- not because I didn't want to send them out, but because it was almost like hearing, "Go ahead and build me a yacht, and I'll reimburse you later." I could totally fold up cheap copies and send them out in self-addressed stamped envelopes and send them out, but getting nice ones printed up and sending them out in bubble-wrap envelopes is not something I would be able to commit to. And then they'd say things like, "I'll send you money via Paypal", which, to a guy like me, is like saying, "I'll staple a check to a pigeon's wing and hope it gets to you." Guys like me barely exist on paper. We're more likely to find our lunch than to buy it. We stay in insane, chaotic environments, and never really learned how to relate to the outside world the way that we were supposed to.

While I can't speak on his behalf, I can guess that folks who back-ordered Fidgets from Mr. Fidget will probably get them at some point.

Thanks for the vote of confidence. For sure I never meant to not deliver, I had no idea what I was in for... and up against, at the time. I had delivered 20,000 fidgets (pog slammers actually) in 1995 in Phoenix, but 1/20th of the volume with 1000 times the recipients was tough to do without a base of operations.
