Art's presence here just extended this thread indefinitely... come on page 8400!

Great to see Art here though, post often!

LOL true true. i'm surprised the web server that hosts this site hasn't burst into flames

about what?

I think some people were hoping Art would stick around as a poster. I can't see how the man could stick around posting as himself. If he continued posting in this thread, it would become "ask Art". I think he is too much of a professional to point out all of the mistakes George makes and drag C2C through the mud.

I am thrilled to have an answer to his future plans as they stand. I am saddened that he has destroyed my stated goal of being here (seeing this thread hit 130 pages) by ending speculation.

Finally, he has given the solution to a direct line to ask questions and talk with him. Purchase a ham and join a unique community...

Instead of disappointment or let down, I feel thrilled by a completely unexpected response to this thread. If there are more posts, all the better. If not, I can only wish a man who provided many hours of pleasure and distraction a happy retirement.

i don't think art owes his listeners, here on coastgab or elsewhere, a god damned thing. if he posts here regularly, great. if he only posts a couple times, that's cool and appreciated... but to feel let down because he doesn't check in everyday to answer questions and entertain the queries of anonymous, unfamiliar people from all over the country? i'm really annoyed by the notion. i have no idea what it is people are expecting from this guy.

A caller in the final hour of c2cam tonight with Noory claimed to be the mother of Art Bell's wife Ramona.
She mentioned its been five years now since Ramona passed on.
She also told of being now a regular c2cam with Noory listener.
Can Art confirm if that caller was really Ramona's mother?

If not, that's some screwed up shit. Seeing as every call for Noory is screened, I would hope they had the decency to investigate that it was really her before letting her on the air.

I second this motion.

And nominate Michael for our Grand Pooh Bah.

Oh. Wait.

I appreciate that he made the effort to reach out. You know it's gotta be crazy dealing with all the fans. Judging from the reactions here and on his facebook page, I'd be going bonkers if I were him.

That would be 2007. Wasn't it a couple of years before that?

i agree. i'm reminded of something Cormac McCarthy said once when a university called to ask him to speak about one of his novels. he simply asked: "have you read the book?". the university rep said yes. to which McCarthy replied: "well then you know all i've got to say about that". and then hung up the phone.

i'd say Art doesn't owe anyone an explanation or confirmation of this or that. let the guy live his life. he's done enough. he's a broadcaster and a radio enthusiast. let him have some quality time with his Hobby and his Family.

I think it's very brave of him posting at all. It did verify a few things to me.

I do love his hobby.

The belly button holds the jewel of the belly dancer;the belly dancer is also made in god's image.

I will still take a lot more convincing that that was the real Art Bell.

If it was -- HEY ART!!

But I'm still standing back, waiting.....

Oh and I asked him what he thought about CoastGab and he was very impressed at the size of the message board.

Vatar · « **Reply #3716 on:** February 15, 2012, 11:41:21 PM »

I guess impressed was a misquote he made observations to the size of our message board calling it "huge"

Hey Art just in case you stop by...I am not to proud to BEG you to come back, my gawd you are so missed...once I asked my grandson "why do you watch so much Sponge Bob?" and he said something that made the lights come on he said "because those are like my friends Nana" he was about 5 at the time, that's how I feel about you Art.. For years you were my "friend"

Kept me awake during my shift at work, and then my addiction on the weekends. I started listening to Dreamland...and have been hooked ever since. Cit

Art must have noticed that the old message boards he would post at once in a while years back, the Fantastic Forum 1 & 2, are completely dead nowadays and found this site is the only active c2c and art bell related forum now.

Poll

With the last Art Bell revelation, do you think he's coming back ?
