Art Bell

[Robert Ghostwolf's Ghost]

You say it with your accent it sounds so classy.

Not really, but he'd like us to think that. 

[Freyja]

The belief that Art made everything up to quit is very far fetched

A) There was an easier route. Why not fake an illness. This would have been easy to hide, and would not have committed a crime.
B) The police reports mean that Art making this up would have been a crime
C) The neighbors called the police for at least one incident, not Art.

He will be back.

At this point whether all of what Art claims is true, half true, not true regarding the shots, stalker etc....IMO it's irrelevant.

Let's assume all is true.

What I don't get is that Art, a man with a net worth of app. $10M decides that the only way to keep his family safe, is to "hang up the mic" and not retire 

I would think he just may have had a few other options if he really wanted to continue with MITD.

Sylvia Browne is worth 70 million dollars???

I bet she didn't see that coming! Zing!

[bellNwhistle]

I bet she didn't see that coming! Zing!

She can't be worth much dead.  Did she have kids?

Get back to me when you can speak with the mellifluous grace of SV.  I heard him on a Gabcast, and his dulcet, cultured tones could make a proctology textbook sound like the collected works of Shelley.

He looks familiar. Wasn't he on The Simpsons?

LOL...maybe he quit that too! Anyone check recently?

Actually, I think it might go dark soon.

I know he made a guest appearance on South Park.

[Ciardelo]

i wonder if artbell@aol.com still works?

You know I can't be her, erm,  I mean him. He's better looking than me, younger than me, has better teeth, more beautiful ears and stronger kneecaps. I however have buttock cheeks to die for and bigger biceps. Your choice...

That's a tough choice which might have to be settled by a comparison of nostrils and toes.

I have a fungal infection that is clearing up on one toe, and I drag out my nasal hair at traffic lights if I have an audience in the car next to me.


I guess you'll be choosing him and his Shelley esque sweet sounding utterances.

Don't be so hasty to concede. I find nasal hair exhibitionism to be quite the turn-on.  Have you ever seen the Kama Snootra?

[pyewacket]

I thought I heard her mention a son who was a psychic but only second to her and I think she mentioned a granddaughter who was also 'gifted'.

Here's a bit about her and her family's interesting history:

Her story IS interesting.. though I wonder what Montel Williams thought about her pretty major screws-ups regarding abucted kids.

THis part of the Huffington Post article:

Browne's behavior was criticized by many, including The Amazing Kreskin, a mentalist who has done hundreds of performance art shows similar to magic for more than 40 years.

Funny. Isn't he the guy whose show Art Bell had people call in from (or art least after), and it was known it was all bogus?   

The fake calling out the fake. 

I used to watch Montel when I was a kid, and recalled thinking she was probably legit, too.  I have a sister-in-law who is a huge believer, to this day.

She did have quite a following, BNW. I think she wrote quite a few books, too. I used to have Montel's show on while working on projects and what little I remember about her was that growl of a voice and those talons she had on her claw like hands. *shudder* I also remember that she would make a great show of presenting a bag of charitable contributions to Montel.

We need a "psychic- real or fake?" thread, if we don't already have one.

Oh, right! Her claws

Artbell.com might go dark?  I guess that is a possibility, if Keith decides he doesn't want to maintain it anymore and Art doesn't wish to pay the fee.  If MITD totally goes away in a month, there will be no reason to keep it (assuming Art is not coming back).  If Heather doesn't burn out, I sort of expect her to keep doing MITD on either another network (Angel's maybe?) or to do the show as a podcast (doubt nightly:  it would likely go to weekly then).  There could be reason for her to maintain the website:  maybe Keith could teach her how to do that.

So let's see, if you're in the driver's seat, I would need to be on your right (?) to see that? Things are so backwards over there.

You should really start writing Art art@artbell.com about all this. Maybe CC Keith over at darkmatter@rowlandnet.com  Seriously. You keep asking questions and those are the guys who have the answers

Thanks MV! I read that yesterday but was at the vet with my diabeetus kitty. LOL. It was a classic MV rant. It reminded me that I owe no one anything. (Which don't you think fits nicely in this thread)

As for making jokes about who Heather is sleeping with, c'mon guys, we're better than that. Every woman on the planet has been accused of sleeping her way up. I expect more out of this band of witty, intellectual 'fags'.  :

PS if that is the only insult you have then you don't have much to attack. Or you're taking the easy way out, either way just lame.

That is lame.  I don't think Heather cares who I'm sleeping with.  Although, she may be a little disappointed that i didn't save myself for her. 
I mean, I am pretty damn good and I think MV will back me up on this.

[LoLo]

I have read about 98% of the posts in this thread and the only conclusion I've come up with is that I must seriously hate myself.

Train! The Trainmeister! Trainalicous! Dude! Man I wish I was sticking around but I've got to finish this movie I'm watching.  It's part of the Jesse Stone series. Stone is on suspension from his job AND he just got a cell phone! Phreaky man!

Have a nice evening sir
