This is what he does. He's been gone a half-hour and we're still sniping at each other.

Can we make a deal? We haters won't make the non-haters wrong and you return the favor.

I know my blood pressure's up. I really do like, even admire you peace-nicks. But if you insist on getting all self-righteous on us my anger will get misplaced on you.

TRUCE! Agreed!

I try not to be self-righteous. I get the anger. But with my dad in the hospital â€" basically a vegetable that can blink â€" and now my beloved Fred-the-Asshole-Parakeet dead, I just have to direct my anger elsewhere. Like at God. And Obama.

You guys can rage on with the hate. It won't kill me. All I ever wanted was to start a "Gently Poking Fun at George" thread as an alternative for those of us who occasionally cringe but still hold out hope for improvement.

I feel like offering my PR consultant services to George. My first command as his PR handler would be to stay the hell away from here. Second would be to mention the #freeartbell campaign on C2C. (Third would be to change his victory crown AV â€" annnnnd accomplished! He has no idea that I just touched him with my PR genius and didn't even charge him for it.)

Thanks for this just posted this on

https://www.facebook.com/FreeArtBellnow
Thanks! 
Keep hammering Sirius' FB page, and continue on twitter @SiriusXM. Don't forget to "Like" all other similar posts.
And email the Sirius executives and the talk radio trade publications. Write 'Free Art Bell' on the subject line so that they will see it even if they don't open the email. :)

Kate and Jess and the Sirius crew on Facebook are completely stonewalling.

If they actually took the time to say: "There will be a statement shortly" or "We have passed your complains along to upper management, who are actively considering the situation," they'd have a lot more respect from me.

They can't say/post anything that they're not told to.  They're just poor shmos like us trying to earn a living.  But I want to slap them both.

Make it fun! Think of the possibilities.

I wish I could get Bateman to do it for me. As MaryAnne. Hell, I'd pay for it. I only have $5, but still.

BATEMAN, CALLING BATEMAN!

Thanks!

My other idea was the "I can has cheezburger?" cat saying:  "I can has Art Bell?"

I like that one, too!  Get to work!

How is your dad doing? Is there a chance he can come out of it?

Seraphim27 I hope things get better for you & I wish your Dad a speedy recovery.
Maybe I could look up a voodoo spell to bring back your parakeet? Maybe not...

Jorch would like to take you for a little ride, to the nearest cornfield.  He'll discuss "the price" there.  ;)

Yeah?

I still have to call Sirius and cancel my subscription. They're not going to get anywhere anyway because my credit card is currently maxxed out. But that aside, I dread talking to customer service people. The upsell attempts make me cringe.

They're not very pushy. A little stupid (I had to get transferred twice before I was on with the right person) but it's no big deal. They didn't even try to sell me on staying. That said "phone cancellation only" is super annoying and they should know it's hated by younger generations who aren't gullible enough to believe that you "can't" do online cancellation. I'd never recommend Sirius to anyone else for more reasons than just messing with Art Bell. Just about everything about them is crappy. Of course the funny part is I would have paid anyway and used them exclusively for Dark Matter.

Thanks. He was an asshole, but I loved him. My dad taught him to say every foul word known to man. Fred was 16. He had a good long life as a parakeet. He even beat the crap out of my cat once when I was a kid. It was an awesome sight to behold.

I hope he's up in bird heaven now, finally getting to use his wings as he spews out little bird obscenities and poops on the heads of angelic cats.

Hahaha...Clyde!!!  Get ready for posts throughout the day asking about Clyde quitting.  MV needs a BellGab FAQ that's continually updated.   "As of 11/14/2014, Clyde Lewis HAS not quit.   George Noory is sometimes called "Dave Noorie" because...."

Thank you. And he's currently in a box in the backyard, waiting for me to dig him a little bird grave, so go for it.

And now if that box starts moving, I will scream my f*cking head off. Laugh.

Nooryisawesome was calling everyone in the Sirius phone directory last night & leaving messages.. I should do that as Maryanne tonight...

I signed up for Sirius just for Dark Matter.  I've been looking and looking through the channels for some reason for me to keep my subscription, but I can't find anything.

Noory came to help. He said he'd talk to Sirius.
Then all our posts disappeared from their Facebook page. Look. They're gone.  :o
Coincidence?


Time to hammer them again!

I PM'd JC on Facebook asking him to jump on the #FreeArtBell bandwagon.  We'll see...

When my cat died I had him in a box for a couple days, I couldn't bring myself to bury him. It was so sad. I did think I saw the box move a couple times. LOL

Yeah, for the brief time I had it (I cancelled) I couldn't find anything else, either.  Maybe if I had it in my car, but I only had the Internet.

Sorry to hear about your Dad and Fred.  I think that you would be great in PR!  (George strikes me as a hopeless case, though)
