George is always well prepared for his guests, and asks pertinent questions to keep the conversation going.

George has the listeners best interests at heart and will only accept advertising for products he personally uses.

     After a weekend of droll northern intellectualism, I'm looking forward to hearing George and his "cut to the chase" style.

A few things I've noticed:
     *His ability to recognize, and state when a good point is made.
     *His sly yet effective tactic of asking the same question more than once in an effort to "trip up" his quest, and expose them for the charlatans they are.
     *When faced with an unusually verbose quest, he will allow them to speak uninterrupted for long periods of time until they have grown tired, at which point he attacks, being the "intellectual jackal" that he is.
     *On its own a remarkable, multilayered, intricately woven piece, and when played loudly, the UFO Phil song repells members of the illuminate like crucifixes to vampires.

Unlike so many people who are into "high weirdness" he never obsesses on the macabre, or is heard to stifle inappropriate laughter over tragedies, especially those involving children. He'd never be so tacky.

George's keen intellect easily allows him to converse with the likes of Michio Kaku.  His program seems to naturally attract the leading scientists of our time, dealing with rational, scientific methods.

A true renaissance man, he has an exhaustive knowledge of history, sociology, anthropology, mythology and language in addition to a Nobel-laureate?s searing intellect in the sciences as well.  It is indeed fortunate for us that he brings all these weighty mental powers to bear nightly and, mirabile dictu, he adds to this a style, integrity and delivery; vocal technique and on-air persona that outshines even the great Walter Cronkite.

This one is for TheAntiGeorgie.  Anti-puke reaction to praising Nooron.  Counterfactual, of course.

George always questions guests who make obviously false, outlandishly mad claims. He never lets callers ramble in an incoherent fashion. OTOH, he lets callers and guests finish their captivating stories, that are new to many of us, without interrupting them with inane comments and questions. He's the epitome of cool too.

August 11 - 2006 Article on Sir George Noory I found in Time Magazine "George Noory, Man of the Century"

When George Noory's book, Worker In The Light hit # 1 on the New York Best Sellers list for the 56th week in a row, The Nooryman himself showed his appreciation by organizing and appearing at the Aug 7, 2006 weekend long book signing gala where he signed 129,391,402 autographs in just a little over 39 hrs without a single break.  He also took the time to be personal with each and every fan, allotting a minimum of 15 minutes of conversation for each person.  When the gala finally ended, a tired, but well composed George stood up and threw his arms in the air amongst the cheering fans.  Among one of the fans was Governor David Paterson, who was so impressed with George's presence and charisma, he declared Aug 7, "George Noory Day".  George, always having something witty to say, politely took the microphone from Governor Paterson and addressed the crowd:  "Thank you, Governor Paterson, thank you for making every day, George Noory day!  And I have a little surprise for you, and all the good people of the USA.  I will take 1 dollar from the proceeds of my book, and donate 20,000 to each and every American, young and old, to buy a new American car.". The crowd erupted into an explosion of gratitude, and if this wasn't enough, George threw piles of 100 dollar bills into the air!".  After the festivities ended, the President of the United States cut into American TV and addressed the nation:  "Good people of the United States.  I am happy to inform you all that the economic disaster is over.  With the brilliant mind and deep pockets of our one and only hero, George Noory, you will all be able to buy a brand new American car, thus saving the auto industry, which in turn will re-employ our nation.  George has also asked the CEO of the big 3 auto makers to give each and every employee a 300% raise, which of course they immediately agreed to".  News of these events quickly spread worldwide.  Vladamir Putin has commissioned Mr. Noory to come up with a plan to save the troubled Russia from economic collapse.  George will personally fly Mr. Putin to his hometown in Missouri, where George and his dynamic team will present the solution personally to Mr. Putin.  When asked what George had in mind for Russia's recovery, George told the press "I can't give you the details as Tommy, my assistance, still needs to type them up, but I can say it will involve the purchase of Gold.  Lots of gold as gold is good.  That fixes the economy.  For the feeding of the people, I will be outlining a three point plan for the distribution of non-hybrid seeds.  I have appointed Alex Jones to oversee the delivery of these seeds to Russian Farmers.  Alex will formulate a training program that will educate farmers on the correct usage of planting these seeds and how to completely renew the crops on a yearly basis.  It is afterall, a completely renewable food source".  With all the time and energy Mr. Noory dedicates to bettering the world, it's a wonder how he can continue to host Coast to Coast AM, the worlds number 1 program with over 6 billion listeners worldwide, each night, every night.  "It's just incredible", George said.  "I'll never give up my show.  They'd have to haul me outta[sic] here kicking and screaming before I'd go" [laughs] "I love it.  I just love it", George told Time Reporter, Tommy Danheiser.  After the interview, George closed with his trademark witty line "Here, would you like some money? Here you go, have a hundred bucks!", George said, pulling out a 500$ dollar bill and handing it to Tommy.  "Thank you so much", Tommy replied.  But I don't need money, what I need is, well. uh.", Tommy said as tears started rolling from his eyes. "Go on, son, say what's on your mind", George said.  "Well, Sir George.  It's my dog.  He has terrible hot spots all over and...", said Tommy, his voice breaking up from the tears.  "Say no more, my friend.", George said as he pulled out his penis and began to urinate in a coffee cup.  "Here you go.  Just let your dog drink this up.  He will get better right away, I promise you.", George said with a beautiful smile, his teeth perfectly white sparkling in the summer sun.  "Thank you", screamed Tommy.  A week later, George received a thank you card from Tommy which read: "Dearest George, I let my dog drink your urine.  At first, I didn't think he'd go for it, being urine and all, but when he smelled it, something came over him.  He just drank it right up.  Like magic, his hot spots disappeared in front of my eyes! I can't thank you enough.".  George keeps every single thank you note he gets and filed this one under T for Tommy.  He also made a photocopy and filed it under D for dog.  Talks are in progress between George and Cybageigy to use Georges piss in a new capsule to cure cancer.  "I would have donated my urine earlier knowing it would help people, but no one approached me.", George said in an interview with Barbara Walters.  And understandable.  How does one go about asking the best person in the world to donate their pee to cure everyone?  Well, Cybageigy did, and now illness will become a thing of the past.  Barbara closed the interview with "Do you think there is a purpose to your presence?  Why are you here?", she asked.   George simply replied, "I'm here because I am great.  It's not a coincidence I was born during a troubled time in our history.  I am needed now and will be needed for long to come", George said.  With a flash, George dematerialized on live television, teleporting back to his home just in time for bed from a long, but typical George Noory day.

The text from the newspaper story:

George Noory, who, until a few months ago, was not even nominated to stand in the Presidential Election, is America's new President. Noory will take over power this morning, after an awesome day. Democratic candidate Barack Obama and Republican runner John McCain didn't come close to the Presidency and Noory won by a huge majority.

There were awesome scenes in Noory's home town of St. Louis  when a the other candidates conceded defeat at around 2.30am this morning, having lost all the Bible Belt states; California, Arizona, New Mexico, Hawaii, Alaska and Missouri.

58-year-old Noory was euphoric. Surrounded by friends and family in his hometown of St. Louis , he could not conceal his absolute delight at the result. According to the usually reliable polls, it was still Obama who was expected to edge Noory in the race to the Whitehouse.

However, a rousing and emotional JFK style address to the nation (shown live last night on CNN) by Noory's best friend Tommy Danheiser was the turning point of the campaign. Amazingly, Noory, was only recently persuaded to stand for election by his best friend, Tommy Danheiser, following an unexpected resignation of another Senator four months ago.

George Noory's campaign was huge. He received enormous support and funding from a number of celebrities including John Travolta, Kevin Costner and Jennifer Aniston. 'We just saw George's potential instantly, his leadership qualities are second to none and we just knew he'd take this country to another level' the three told this newspaper.

British Prime Minister Gordon Brown was one of the first to congratulate George Noory last night, saying he believed the American people had chosen the right man to lead The States for the next few years. When interviewed by CNN last night, a modest President Noory promised to stay loyal to his manifesto by saying "My first priority is to abolish the purchase tax on beer, wines and spirits! No, I'm just joking, I am proud that the people of this great nation have chosen me as their leader. I will do everything I can to make them proud."

Grad school is evil - it keeps me from playing!  I've missed so much here in the past few months, I'm not even trying to catch up with it all.

Mark Knight - that Mother's Day card is lovely - thank you so much!  I saved a copy of the image - hope you don't mind.

I've never heard George utter an unoriginal thought.  On the contrary, I've come to see him as one of the premiere thinkers of our time; a standard by which wielders of the spoken word and forgers of ideas can measure themselves.

A man among men.

George Noory has risen to the heights of broadcasting perfection.  I cannot possibly make it through the night without listening to the melodic tones of his voice and the eloquence of his unmatched diction.

1. He's a great sleep tonic. 
2. You don't feel bad if you miss a show.

Are there others? It's difficult to find a good reason for him being there, I know.

I most admire George for his determined political neutrality.  He neither offends my own beliefs, nor does he cater to those of my persuasion.  Rather he directs his on-air philosophies in the direction of simple common sense, something that, God knows, I would never have been able to arrive at on my own.

God bless you, Mr. Noory, for as the Bible says, "The meek shall inherit the earth."  :'(
