Art Bell's Wife Dies Unexpectedly
Ramona Bell, the wife of syndicated radio legend Art Bell, died unexpectedly Thursday at age 47 while vacationing with her husband in Laughlin, Nev., according to an announcement by Coast to Coast AM, the program Bell founded and still occasionally hosts.
"At present, the exact cause of Mrs. Bell's death has not been determined," the announcement states. "It apparently took place during her sleep." An asthma sufferer for years, Ramona Bell reportedly experienced an attack before her death.
The Bells married in the early '90s after meeting as coworkers at radio station KWDN in Las Vegas. Art Bell broadcast his show from the couple's home in Pahrump, Nev., a remote desert town 50 miles from Las Vegas near Area 51, where Ramona booked guests and handled many other duties. The couple also own FM radio station KNYE, an eclectic oldies station they began in Pahrump four years ago.
Though Bell has not been an everyday radio host since 2002, he appears weekends on Coast to Coast, engages regularly in ham radio chats at call sign W60BB and is frequently seen on his studio webcam. The photo of the Bells ringing in the New Year was one of dozens contributed by fans to an Art Bell online forum since Ramona's death.
As befitting a host who became famous for covering paranormal subjects, Bell once claimed to have seen a UFO while driving with his wife, according to a July 13, 1998, Newsweek article:
Four years ago he and Ramona were driving around 2 am. on the lonely stretch of road leading to their house. "Coming up from behind us. oh my God, was a gigantic triangular craft," says Bell. "It had a strobing red light on the front and a white light on each back point. We watched it float across the valley for five minutes, before we lost sight of it."
Update: Art Bell remarried in April and announced plans to leave the U.S.

Longtime listener... Saddened this morning after reading this news. Our prayers are with you Brother Bell.
Love & Light to you.

Art, my deepest sympathies. I've never spoken to you but you've been a good friend to me through some long, dark nights. I wish I could return the favor in your time of sorrow.
Like so many of your fans, we are very sorry to hear about your loss. I will say a silent prayer for you and your family. all our sympathy at this sad time.
I am truely sorry to hear about his loss. He has already absorbed so much. He has had made so many people so happy over the years and dedicated himself to others. My heart goes out. May god give him the strength to carry one and recover from your great loss.
SORRY FOR YOUR LOST ART, A TREASURE A GIFT ON LOAN FROM ABOVE MUCH LOVE MJ
Dear Art:
Sending you lots of love and light. Keep the Faith. She is well within Peresphone's tender care.
Blessed be,
Tracy
So sorry to hear of your loss. Have been a listener for many years. Wishing you the strength to carry on.
I am so sorry Art I have no words, god speed my friend.
Dear Art,
So very sorry to hear of your loss. I've listened to your voice for 10 years now and loved every minute of it. May God bless you in your time of sorrow my friend.
Kindly,
Shawn K.
Art:
So sorry for your loss. I can recall a number of times when you talked about Ramona on your show -- she seemed, as you are, a guest in my home.
God bless both of you.
Art you are a very special person, I miss listening to you everyday. I have been a fan for over ten years, I suffer from severe nerve damage and listening to you at night had a magical calming effect on me. I always remember you talking about the love of your life Ramona, she inspired you with her deep love for you! My deepest respect for Ramona she was a wonderful person and a great wife for you Art. Art you should remember that in these times of sorrow just remember that Gods Angels gave you something many people wished they had. The love of your life! Art keep your head up and pay tribute and gratitude to Ramona by coming back stronger than ever. She loved you and loved what you did, things happen for a reason and the Angels gave you quality time with your wife years before her death was to become reality. You may not know it but you didn't really retire off the air waves because of no other reason but to spend the best times of your life with the person that you love the most. She was the real true reason subconciously for leaving the 600 am show and God blessed you with true love and blessed you financially to be able to make her the happiest women on Earth. Art ask yourself this question, would you go through this again? Would you if given a chance to go back in time, knowing that Ramona was to die in 2006, would you change anything? I think not. You would do it over and over again loving, caring, spoiling Ramona until the very end. Art, Ramona died the most happiest women, wife, the most special being alive. I am a psychic and Ramona wanted me to tell you this. GOD BLESS YOU ART!
FRANK from San Diego.
You don't know me. But, the both of you are a part of my family. You two have a never ending love. You will see her again. Be strong Art. Don't want to lose you too. Danny
Art,
There are no words to express our sadness for you during this time. All we can do is offer our thoughts and hopes that you can find a way to make it through this most difficult time. Please remember that she would want you to go on, be happy and remember the good times that you shared and that you will see her again someday.

Dear Art,
I am so sorry to hear of the loss of your wife.

We will miss her and our hearts share your grief. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family in your time of need.

Ramona's radio voice was naturally sweet and sincere. And the way Art spoke of her, you could tell they were soulmates. Prayers for Art from Ohio Fans.

God Bless you and give you peace.

I was so shocked and saddened to hear about Ramona. I know you were the love of each other's lives. And you always will be. Bless you Art for all you have given Ramona -- and all of us listeners for so many years.
To know someone you've never met is difficult if not impossible but you don't have to be a psychic to know that here was a man and a woman that had one of those oh so rare "true loves" for one another. I have welcomed Art and Ramona into my heart and home for a long time now and even tho Ramona has physically gone now I will continue to welcome both of thier presences. Art, millions of us feel for you and wish only the best for you, consider us part of your family cause we consider you and yours to be part of ours. Robert Totten
My prayers are with you Art Bell !!
Life is too short please take it easy.
Praying for strength for you Art !
Be well and hope we hear from you soon.
Dave in Virginia Beach
Dear Art,
I am so horribly, terribly sorry. I met you and Ramona in NYC at your book signing with Whitley. Ramona was just as nice and beautiful as you always portrayed on the air. She actually wrote my name before you autographed "Superstorm". I have a little bit of Ramona with me. You two had my ideal life out there in the desert and I loved knowing that you were both out there. Appreciate with all your heart the fabulous times you two had and as everyone else is saying, you WILL be together again. You know it's true.
The angels are weeping,
Nancy from nyc
Dear Art,
I was overcome with incredible, unexplained sadness upon hearing of Ramona's passing...I guess it was because you were able to communicate your great love for her over the airwaves to millions of people who had never met her...if we are to believe the testimony of youoor many guests, Ramona is right beside you, comforting you and your son..somehow, at the same time, because she was a Catholic, she is enjoying the comfort of resting in Jesus' arms...
God bless you..Mary Gin
Dear Art, What a beautiful example of love and devotion you and Romona were to your radio listeners. I use to always love it when you would ask Ramona a question and you could here her answere it in the background. I also remember that one time you had a picture of her on the web site with some of the very large vegetables that she had grown. What an amazingly talented person she was. Art, I find it so incredible that you and George have taken strangers from all over the world and all walks of life and woven all of us into a family. Many of us will never meet you, Ramona, or one another and yet there is such a feeling of closeness and belonging that can not be explained. Please know that your lose and sorrow is like a rock thrown into a pond. It has rippled out and touched your radio families lives in such a way that if each of us could take upon our shoulders some of your sorrow and pain, we would gladly do it without hesitation. I love you, Art, and will continue to pray that God will comfort your heart at this very sad time . May the love and beautiful spirt of Ramona's life bring you peace and strength to get through.
From all of us here in Alaska we morn your loss and envy the love you and Ramona shared. There are no words.
What more can I add? I, too, feel the loss as though of a dear family member.
I'm still in shock.
I have suffered and continue to suffer from asthma (so severe I have spent the last 3 months in and out of hospitals) so I was shocked to find one can die in one's sleep as a result; I have never heard of it. HOW COULD YOU HAVE KNOWN????
All I can do is pray for you.... don't know how else to help you. Have been a listener forever. Sylvia
Art; Most heartfelt condolances from Nebraska. Our family has some Idea of what your going through. My grandfather was lost in a similar way. He passed on due to a heart attack in his sleep. Still, as Chris from Alaska says. Theyre are no words. All our prayers. John.
Art, I too have been grief stricken since I learned of your wife's passing. If there is any comfort in sharing your grief may I add to your comfort during this time, and I pray to the Lord above that He will come to you in a new way to show His love to you and bring you peace about something that doesn't make any sense to us humans. I have listened to you since the 1980's when I was in Medford, Oregon and now you are on the air everywhere! You and your lovely wife brought me much comfort and enjoyment and I haven't had a good night's rest hardly in the past dozen years because of you and your show and now Coast To Coast Radio. I do wish you were on more than just weekends!
If there is anything I can do please do not hesitate to call on yet another avid and addictied listener.

Art,
Your loss saddens me deeply. Yours was a perfect match of soulmates. May God bless and comfort you at this difficult time and may you and Ramona be forever reunited one day in the next world.
On many a clear and starry night your voice has brought hope and inspired wonder all across the vast miles of this great country of ours. I hope that the great wave of love and sympathy that now flows forth from your millions of listeners reaches the shore of your troubled heart and eases some of your pain.
Love And Prayers To You! Your tears will fall upon our hearts! May you feel the warmth of all our arms as we embrace you with our love and spirits. God Bless!

I'm very sad to hear about Ramona.
I've been a listener for years. They brought many nights of good mind thought entertainment. Art is a man who brought new door openings and had the guts to do it.

Dear Art and Ramona,
Just becausde a body leaves and goes over to God doesn't mean a soul leaves. You hold your kittens close and listen to their purrs, give them your love as you and Ramona do. You will see her physical self one day whether sooner or later on. You and Ramona warmed my heart every time you were on the air. You are both one as you were when you could see and hear one another. I also miss a loved one who is gone and feel a grief and sickness beyond words. I love you,
Joanie
Art, you don't know me, but I know you. I am very sorry to hear of your sudden loss. I hope, and I know, that you will perpetuate her memory by continuing to push forward the frontiers of radio in all its many facets.

Dear Art:
You have always been a sensitive man, full of compassion for others & it showed in your witness to the love for your wife & even the little wild cat you were determined to win over. God knows this, & taking Romana home to live with Him was not a strike against "you", but his own compassion for dear Ramona who must have suffereed more than anyone knew with her Asthma. Take care dear friend.You are loved by thousands out here in "Radio land."

Art, I have been listening to you for years and years. You and Romona were like guests in our home. I loved hearing about your cats, sharing in your trials and triumphs, experiencing your friends with you. For some reason I fondly recall you talking about the smell of Romona cooking turkey at Thanksgiving when you were on the air. I am grateful that had more time recently to spend with your precious soulmate. I only wish your journey in this physical life could have been longer. I hope that God can comfort your in your sorrow. Please know that you have made a difference in the lives of millions and Romona helped you do that. God bless and rest her soul.

I'm so sorry for your loss. It was to soon. She will be missed.
Art, I send my love to help comfort you.I have felt a part of your family for the past ten years.Even though we never met physically,I felt you and Ramona were honest,loving radiant people.You both communicated that night after night over the air.I couldn't wait until nightfall to listen in and access the web page for the latest webcam photos.I knew I could depend on you to stimulate my mind, and provoke thought.
I know that these are dark, painful days.No matter that we know in our heart that we will see our loved ones again,we still suffer.The heart will feel it deepest, and one can only hang on, waiting for the glimmer of light that signals the lifting of the heaviness of heart.It will happen. Please accept my prayers and love for you both. Peace, Love, and Joy.

Dear Art: words fail me at such a time of deep sadness. I have been a listener for many, many years. It was impossible to listen to your voice without feeling Ramona's and your love for each other. Please remember that millions of your listeners are wrapping you in their love too and that Ramona is always near. God bless you.
Art
You are a wonderfully inspirational person. You kept me company nightly at work and soon my husband as well, because you linked us even when we couldn't be together. As you have always said, Ramona is my soul mate.
She still is.
Im so sorry to hear of Ramona`s death. You have my deepest sympathy. I have been a longtime fan. M. rogers of ohio
Like everyone I was shocked and did not believe Ramona had transitioned so suddenly. A love so strong she would go before you to prepare you a place. I love you Ramona in a way I never new until now. I grieve for Art our brother our friend in the night. Peace, love and God/dess go with you all and your family...our family. Breath easy now dear Ramona....

You helped me after my loss... may god be with you...
A long time fan, and writer for After Dark, my thoughts are with you. Peace and respect.
Once in a blue moon, celebrities so very unique and vibrant like Art and Ramona, share their love and gifts with the public. Your shining example of true love, combined with humor and talent, are a gift that I will cherish always.
You've helped me through a long dark night of the soul in my own painful loss; how I want to do the same now for you!
After much loss in my life, sorrow and anger were all I felt for a long time. I was finally given the gift I had wanted for so long...just to know for sure that there really is a life after this one. I hope that this realization comes to you too, Art. You and Ramona will be together again when your work here is finished.
May the combined love of all of us who have so much respect for you and Ramona reach you as the loving light of positive energy that it is, and help ease your pain. You are loved so very much by so very many. Like the experiment you did on the air...the great love of so many people has to help...

May GOD BLESS you. So sorry to hear about your beloved Ramona. I feel like I know you both. You have brought much light into this world.

Dear Art
I have been listening to your show for years through break ups, school, painting going crazy staying up late and I am listening to your show right now and I feel as if you are the bravest male I have ever heard.
I have never heard some one talk so frankly about someone so intimately.My father has never been one to talk about his feelings and as a human I feel so moved by your experience with your wifes death.
Please stay strong and beautiful you keep all of as strong and beautiful.

Dear Art,
We feel as though we have lost someone so
special to us. You and Ramona have enriched our lives through good times
and bad. Each day since she left us, our
lives have been diminished for we wish we
could do something for you. How we wish we could.
So, sorry. Art, you have been so blessed
to have had Ramona, not many of us have
that chance. I know she is with you and
your kitties.
God Bless.

Having the same sudden loss just recently I share all the thoughts you spoke last night.
You kept me sane during a time in my lie when I almost killed myself because of insomnia. You were there and I wasn't alone. I am so sorry for your loss. You are not alone.

Respectfully offer the most sincere condolences. I guess they were short of an angel up there.
Art...We mourn with you on your heartbreaking loss, and pray for your comfort and peace.

Sorry for your loss. I heard your show on Sunday and was moved by your hour devoted to your wife. I thought your honesty was important about your valium experience. It took a lot of courage to let us inside your most private thoughts and moments leading up to this last sunday. I live in Edmonton Canada and you still bring here matters to me. Take Care
Love Rob
Dear Art,

Long time believer, 3 year listener, life time member.
Light and Love.

You poor sweet man. I can't imagine how much pain your in. You were there for me when I was a young 19 year old single mother. My lonely nights when I could have given up you made me laugh with stories of falling off the deck and the super glue. You were my friend and I am embarrassed to say I cried to my husband when you went off the air. I remember how you talked of her and how happy I was to find somone who loved me as much as you did Ramona. If I could take your pain away like you did mine Lord knows I would. Please stay strong because I know she must be so worried about you and I hope that you know she is with you all the time as I would be if I left my husband from death. I would shake the heavens to be there by his side as I know she is doing for you. Stay strong, have faith and know that this is the begining of eternity with her. Faithful listener and friend.
My Deepest Condolences, Thank you for sharing with us your valium experience. It did take a lot of courage to let us inside your most private thoughts and moments leading up to this last sunday. I know that she is with you and that you will be together again. love never dies.
Long time listener, about 10 years.

i have been listening since i was 12 years old and have found your love of your wife to be unlike any other i have heard of. i wish you nothing but the best in your time of need and pray that you make it through.
god bless
Got in my car to run an errand tonight, and your voice came on the radio. Didn't know who you were; had to look up the station's programming list to find out, because listening to your heart breaking over the air was just so... moving. I can't claim to be a long-time listener, as all those who posted above are -- just someone who was deeply touched by the honesty and pain in your voice, and who wishes you peace. It WILL come some day.
I am very sorry to hear of this. Please be strong.
My deepest sympathy in this very troubled time. God be with you to keep you strong. My thoughts and prayers are with you.
Dear Art, Ive been a Fan for years in the past and happend to tune in to Coast to Coast when George Noory was on and was totally floored to hear the news about your wife! I drive 18 wheeler and was forced to pull over off the highway because of the shock that I experienced because I knew she was the light of your life.Yes I did shed a tear for your loss but was comforted that we all are reunited on the otherside.I hope your getting the proper support to help you at this point in your life.We all grieve with you...Mark
Dear Art, for years I have enjoyed your radio program. Many of us have lost sleep just to stay up to listen. You have been there for us, now it's time we
were all here for you, with our prayers and best wishes during your time of great loss.
Hold on, you're in our prayers
You m
So sorry about Ramona. Your show has an authenticity that others' cannot claim.
G.
Can not say any more than others about the loss that you have to bare. You mean more to people than you will ever know. Art you have helped me though many of lifes hardships. Try to keep your head up!!!
Art and family,
My condolences to you in losing such a wonderful lady, friend, sister, and daughter. I understand what a huge hole this leaves in your life. I'm sure Ramona is smiling down on you and sending pure love.
Austin Sloan
Art...
I came across this news just now as I was looking for the exact C2C web address in a search. I was devastated to learn of Ramona's passing. Like others here, I felt a connection to her (and you) as family. My heart and prayers go out to you, your family and Ramona's family, and all those close to you who will be heart-scarred by this tragedy.
I only wish to add this. While you grieve in the coming months and years, remember always that death ends a life, not a relationship. You will forever hold Ramona in your heart and thoughts, and she will always have a life with you hereafter. You will see the essence of her and the memory of her in many things as you move through each day. And though this brings pain, it also brings some sort of comfort.
I wish you peace and comfort, Art. Most of all, at some point in the future I hope you can try to find joy in life again. It is the one thing you need to regain if you are to give Ramona's death any meaning. She would want that for you....to see you live life joyfully and to engage in it with gusto.
Art, like everyone else that has posted before me, I was shocked and saddened by Ramona's passing, my first thought was " this can't be ", as you both had that rare love that so few people will ever find. I pray that Our Lord will hold you close in his arms so that your pain may be eased.You will be with Ramona again, for you were truly her soulmate. A long time listner and fan of both you, Ramona and kitties.
MANY CANADIANS SHARE YOUR GRIEF.
WE LOVE YOU, ART...
I am listening to your program right now, and I just heard the sad news. We all loved her too. I am so sorry.
So very sorry to here of your lose. It is a difficult time and there is nothing that anyone could say that will make it any easier for you. Just know that the long haul drivers out here that have listened to you for years send you all our prayers for your journey thru the dark night. Just know that the sun will come up!
ALWAYS REMEMBER, GOD CREATED ALL OF US EQUALLY, AND GOD DON'T LIKE UGLY...
Hate Letter Against Filipinos
Please take time to read this, most especially the bottom part, PATRICIA EVANGELISTA's (19 year old Filipina) speech that won in a WORLD competition in London.
This is a hate letter coming from a radio talk show host Mr. Art Bell from Nevada. I dont consider myself as patriotic but please read my reply below in BOLD LETTERS and send this to as many of your friends as possible
until it reaches him.
Subject: HATE LETTER
This is a very disturbing open E-mail letter to all Filipinos around the world; specially here in North America!, from a man who has the power to reach millions of people. (he's a radio talk host)
Please read on..............
This is an open letter email by Art Bell, a radio talk show host in Nevada(more info in the email itself). Here is yet another person who has taken; advantage of his power and privilege to use hateful words and racial stereotypes that breed further ignorance and intolerance in our society.
Art Bell is a talk radio host who has two shows that he broadcasts from his home in Nevada, that is rebroadcast by 400 stations across the country.
He's written 2 books. He lived in Okinawa, Japan for some years and had a radio program on the English station here. And, though it's hard to believe after reading the following letter from him, he actually has been to the Philippines (he's traveled fairly extensively around the world).
Check out his website listed at the end to get a glimpse at this fool who's spreading this hateful ignorance. And check his wife as well. This letter is so degrading, I think it's really important that everybody read this and not attack him, but respond to him in a civilized manner because otherwise his thoughts will be reaffirmed. Understand that not everyone has a viewpoint like we do, and that this is an opinion of someone who hopefully can be changed only by civil actions.
...............................................
Filipinos.....*make me puke* (Art Bell)
As we've all come to notice, in the past few decades, Filipinos have begun to infest the United States like some sort of disease. Their extensive involvement in the U.S. Armed Forces is proof of the trashy kind of qualities all filipinos tend to exhibit on a regular basis. You can see this clearly by studying the attitudes and cultural Icons of most Filipino Americans.
Origins of Pinoys/Pinays:
Are they really asian? Well we've come to accept the fact the filipinos come from a part of the world known as South East Asia. But the term "Asia" is used in the wrong way. You may notice that contemporary Filipino Americans try very hard to associate themselves with groups that we know as Asian. I cannot count the number of times I have seen a 'Third World' Filipino try to connect themselves to the chinese or Japanese people. There is no connection and here's why. The Philippines is a Third World country. Nothing respectable has EVER been created by Filipino people during our entire human history. Young filipino men in America have become obsessed with "import racing". They have an enormously perverted affection for Japanese cars. It's a common phenomenon. In their minds, these Filipinos somehow believe that they are asian and that it somehow connects them to Japanese people and japanese cars. They often take credit for the ingenuity of Japanese people and say how it's an "Asian thing". This term..."Asian thing" derived directly from African American slang "black thang". "It's a black thang." "It's an asian thang."
You can see the connection. It's even funnier that, in Japan, Filipinos are heavily discriminated against. The only filipinos that can live successfully in Japan are the filipino prostitutes. But that's the case for most Filipino people no matter where they live in th e world. Now we've come down to this fact...and it is a fact.
Nothing in Filipino Culture can be seen as Asian.
They have no architectural, artistic, or cultural influence which is in ANY way, asian. Thinking of the great countries in Asia such as Japan, Korea, and China there is no way you can possibly connect the Philippine Islands. This assault by filipino americans to connect themselves with the great peoples of North East Asia is foul and disgusting. Try visiting a young filipino's web site too.
You'll see something called the "Asian IRC Ring". It has to do with the chatrooms. The most horrible thing about this is that these TRASHY people are trying to associate themselves with Asia again!! People in Asia don't act like this at all. What we are seeing here is the natural Filipino in its element with full access to technology and this is how they act! You will consistently see this behavior over and over again.
Another interest ing thing is that these "thirdworld" people also frequent RC chatrooms such as #chinese #japan and #asian. They must believe that they are somehow related racially or culturally to North Asians. But it's completely WRONG! There might have been some distant contact With China and even less with Japan during World War II, but these people are actually more closely related to african americans and Mexican americans.
Do the parents of these young filipinos know what's going on? Would they accept this? I believe that they would and do. This is the natural "Trash" element in filipinos manifesting itself. Nothing good has ever come from Philippines and I don't believe anything good ever will.
Recognizing your Roots (A Message to Filipinos). To all filipino people:
Please recognize your ROOTS! You come from the Third World! You country is a disgusting and filthy place. Most people there live in poverty! Your culture has MUCH MORE SPANISH influence than chinese, and absolutely no JAPANESE influence whatsoever. People in Japan and China, d o not act like you. They do not constantly talk about sex and they have a MUCH HIGHER level of RESPECT for each other. There is NO WAY that you can connect yourself to Asia other than location.
Your culture and technological advancement does no! t even come CLOSE to What Chinese, people have done in the past and what Japanese and Korean people are doing now! Everything you do is distinctly filipino. You cannot take credit for Japanese cars, video games, or Hentai! It's not an "asian thing" it's an "American thing". You have no concept of culture...no concept of asian ideas or asian philosophy! Can you demonstrate how you use Confucianism or Taoism in you everyday life?? You can't. And you will NEVER be able to.
I understand that you are trying to create an identity for yourselves as young people... but it is NOT related to Asia. Your Identity is Filipino.
That's all you are. Just Filipino. Think about what that means....
------------------------------------------
I find this funny, he is right in some ways where we, as Filipinos don't actually have an "Identity". I think this is due to the confusion of our mixed races from Hispanic, Chinese, American and Malay origins. I see it in malls, imagine young generations wearing ski caps and ski goggles in a tropical country, baggy low rise pants like that of African Americans living in the Bronx of New York, not to mention endless whitening products being sold at department stores and drug stores.
But his ignorance also blinds him from the other truth. That while we may glorify Anime shows and Japanese Internet gaming, he is not aware that a nameless Filipino may be responsible for some technical aspects of some Japanese software. He is not aware of our contribution to the the society in general .Technological advancements that may have aided post war navigations and landing on the moon. That the antibiot ic Erythromycin was discovered by Dr. Abelardo Aguilar from Iloilo creating the brand "Ilosone".
Thomas Edison may have discovered the electric light bulb and the fluorescent lighting was thought up by Nikola Tesla. But the fluorescent lamp we use today was invented by Agapito Flores (a Cebuano named Benigno Flores of Bantayan Island, according to the Philippine Daily inquirer), a Filipino scientist. Americans helped then-Philippine leader Ramon Magsaysay to develop it for worldwide commerce. That the personal physician of former U.S. Pres. Bill Clinton is Eleanor "Connie" Concepcion Mariano, a Filipina doctor who was the youngest captain in the US Navy. A Filipino writer Jose Rizal could read a nd write at age 2, and grew up to speak more than 20 languages, includind Latin, Greek, German, French and Chinese.
Or that a Filipino genius was responsible for the near hiatus in the PENTAGON and White House nearly infiltrationg their closely guarded secrets with the "ILOVEYOU" bug. Nuisance maybe, but still one heck of a 'beautiful mind'...not to be underestimated.
The list goes on and on, but who cares right? Certainly not Mr. Art Bell...Boy, I'm not surprised.
Perhaps Art Bell does not know that although we consider ourselves ASIAN because we are strategically located in the Southeast asian region of which our nearest neighbors are Malays, ASIA does not mean only Chinese and Japanese race of people. Th en maybe it is his connotation that "Asia" meant only our economically successful, paler brothers and he considers Malays such as Thais, Malaysians, Indonesians, and ourselves as a "Third World" race. Then it is "his" ignonimity that would make a civilized person of whatever race puke. Imagine literally connecting Chinese, Koreans and Japanese to the Philippine Islands which is archipelagos away from the countries he has mentioned. I also wonder where he got the impression th at we aspire to be Japanese( ???) Hispanics maybe but not the Japanese. But even Hispanics today do not mind sharing their "surnames" to their Asian brothers who they have colonized for 3 centuries.
Another sad reality that although most Filipinos working overseas are domestic helpers and prostitutes, who does he think educates the toddlers of Hong Kong, Singapore, Taiwan and Tokyo? Parents of these countries rarely have time spent with their children, leaving them to their Filipino nannies. And with regard to prostitution. Filipinos are not the only ones working as one. I HARDLY SEE FILIPINOS STARRING IN PORN MOVIES. THERE MIGHT BE A FEW FILIPINOS WE HAVEN'T SEEN , BUT MOST ARE FROM MR. ART BELL'S RACE.
He also mentioned that we have no concept of culture..no concept of asian ideas or asian philosophy. How can we demonst rate Confucianism or Taoism in a Christian nation? IS HE INFORMED THAT THE PHILIPPINES IS THE ONLY PREDOMINANTLY CHRISTIAN/CATHOLIC NATION IN ASIA?! YOU HAVE TO USE COMMON SENSE IN A LOT OF THINGS SOMETIMES...
We do not need to create an identity for ourselves. We are who we are. Our identity stems from the anonymity we live in this world. How we contribute silently towards the progress of the world and not just one country. Although the Filipino blood may be tainted with malice, corruption, poverty and prostitution, it is not a perfect race... But so are the others. Maybe Mr. Art Bell needs to think about this.
WE MAY NOT BE PERFECT MR. BELL BUT AT LEAST WE STILL HAVE VALUES. FOR ONE THING WE DON'T PUT OUR AGING PARENTS IN NURSING HOMES BECAUSE "THEY'RE SIMPLY OLD AND WORTHLESS". WE DONT HAVE AS MUCH NUMBERS OF SINGLE MOTHERS WHO GET PREGNANT IN THEIR VERY EARLY TEENS AND EVENTUALLY BECOME PARASITES OF THE GOVERNMENT FOR YEARS AND YEARS. < SPAN>
YES...WE CAME TO YOUR COUNTRY TO WORK, TO EARN DECENT MONEY (HALF OF WHICH BY THE WAY GOES TO TAXES BECAUSE THERE'S SO MANY SOCIAL PARASITES FROM YOUR RACE).AND BY THE WAY, MOST EDUCATED PEOPLE THAT I WORK WITH DON'T COME FROM YOUR RACE... THEY'RE ACTUALLY IMMIGRANTS TOO. AND THOSE EDUCATED ONES DO NOT ACT LIKE YOU DO, PERHAPS BECAUSE THEY'VE REALLY BEEN WELL EDUCATED..AFTER ALL THAT'S SAID... WHO IS THE IGNORANT ONCE AGAIN?!

Pinay wins it big in London
By Alfred Yuson
The Philippine Star 05/16/2004
Patricia Evangelista, a 19-year- old, Mass Communications sophomore of University of the Philippines (UP)-Diliman, did the country proud Friday night by besting 59 other student contestants from 37 countries in the 2004 International Public Speaking competition conducted by the English Speaking Union (ESU) in London.
She triumphed over a field of exactly 60 speakers from all over the English-speaking world, including the United States, United Kingdom and Australia, reported Maranan.
The board of judges' decision was unanimous, according to contest chairman Brian Hanharan of the British broadcasting Corp. (BBC).
PATRICIA'S SHORT SPEECH WORTH READING....
---------------------------------------------------------
BLONDE AND BLUE EYES
When I was little, I wanted what many Filipino children all over the country wanted. I wanted to be blond, blue-eyed, and white.
I thought -- if I just wished hard enough and was good enough, I'd wake upon Christmas morning with snow outside my window and freckles across my nose!
More than four centuries under western domination does that to you. I have sixteen cousins. In a couple of years, there will just be five of us left in the Philippines, the rest will have gone abroad in search of "greener pastures." It's not just an anomaly; it's a trend; the Filipino diaspora. Today, about eight million Filipinos are scattered around the world.
There are t hose who disapprove of Filipinos who choose to leave. I used to. Maybe this is a natural reaction of someone who was left behind, smiling for family pictures that get emptier with each succeeding year. Desertion, I called it. My country is a land that has perpetually fought for the freedom to be itself. Our heroes offered their lives in the struggle against the Spanish, the Japanese, the Americans. To pack up and deny that identity is tantamount to spitting on that sacrifice.
Or is it? I don't think so, not anymore. True, there is no denying this phenomenon, aided by the fact that what was once the other side of the world is now a twelve-hour plane ride away. But this is a borderless world, where no individual can claim to be purely from where he is now. My mother is of Chinese descent, my father is a quarter Spanish, and I call myself a pure Filipino-a hybrid of sorts resulting from a combination of cultures.
Each square mile anywhere in the world is made up of peopl e of different ethnicities, with national identities and individual personalities. because of this, each square mile is already a microcosm of the world. In as much as this blessed spot that is England is the world, so is my neighborhood back home.
Seen this way! , the Filipino Diaspora, or any sort of dispersal of populations, is not as ominous as so many claim. It must be understood. I come from a Third World country, one that is still trying mightily to get back on its feet after many years of dictatorship. But we shall make it, given more time. Especially now, when we have thousands of eager young minds who graduate from college every year. They have skills. They need jobs. We cannot absorb them all.
A borderless world presents a bigger opportunity, yet one that is not so much abandonment but an extension of identity . Even as we take, we give back. We are the 40,000 skilled nurses who support the UK's National Health Service. We are the quarter-of-a-million seafarers manning most of the world's commercial ships. We are your software engineers in Ireland, your construction workers in the Middle East, your doctors and caregivers in North America, and, your musical artists in London's West End.
Nationalism isn't bound by time or place. People from other nations migrate to create new nations, yet still remain essentially who they are. British society is itself an example of a multi-cultural nation, a melting pot of races, religions, arts and cultures. We are, indeed, in a borderless world!
Leaving sometimes isn't a matter of choice. It's coming back that is. The Hobbits of the shire travelled all over Middle-Earth, but they chose to come home, richer in every sense of the word. We call people like these balikbayans or the 'returnees' -- those who followed their dream, yet choose to return and share their mature talents and good fortune.
In a few years, I may take advantage of whatever opportunities come my way. But I will come home. A borderless world doesn't preclude the idea of a home. I'm a Filipino, and I'll always be one. It isn't about just geography; it isn't about boundaries. It's about giving back to the country that shaped me.
And that's going to be more important to me than seeing snow outside my windows on a bright Christmas morning.
Mabuhay and Thank you.
So, be proud, you are a Filipino,...and not like Mr. Art Bell. Please do send this to as many person as you can until it reaches him.
I AM DEEPLY SORRY TO HEAR OF YOU LOSS!!
I work the morning show. have for over 12 years. listened every morning getting ready to hit the air. Some of your stuff was ridiculous. some was brilliant. You are...your listeners are gullable. Comon..."chemtrails"!!?? "Remote viewing"??!! But still I listened. You were brilliant in never agreeing or admitting your bought what many of the crack pot guests had to say...but you played off people's fears wonderfully. I recall all the nuts about the economy failing...turn of the century chaos... etc etc. yet, here we are. still, I wish you well. find me. say hi. good luck.
Steve Conley
With all due respect:
Why is Ramona's death cause hasnt been determined yet? is there no interest in finding out, or is there no good enough forensic around?.
Skeptic as yourself,nevertheless officially I salute you.
NOT THIS PHILIPPNE STUFF AGAIN!! Mr. Bell has always spoken respectfully and fairly to and about everyone...He has publicly and in court proven he was not the one who wrote this terrible, hate filled letter. Anyone can get on the internet write what they want and sign other people name to it.

Dear Art
After listening to your show for so many years, I feel as though I knew you and your dear wife personally. so this comes as a shock to my system to hear that she has departed this life so suddenly.
Please accept my condolences and know that many people feel your great loss and share in your grief along with you.
God bless you Art.
Your friend and fan,
Jimmy Chick
stay strong god be with you always
if it was u hu wrote that hate mail to us filipinos, tang ina mo gago ka.
Mr. Bell,
My belated condolences for your lost.. I know how you feel, I lost my wife on jan6,2003
Mr. Bell-
My deepest sympathies to you on the loss of Ramona. For many years you have been a comfort for me at night and I remember so many times you speaking of Ramona. I pray that you find comfort in this time of your sadness. All my best to you.
Art I've listened to you since 1992 and know how much you adored your wife. I am so sorry for your loss
Art I've listened to you since 1992 and know how much you adored your wife. I am so sorry for your loss
Oh Art. I just learned about your beloved Romna.
You were one. You were sole mates.
How I ache because of your loss, your pain and loneliness. Dear Art, please regain your strength. Romna is with you. I know she is. And I know she would want you to heal and to return to what you love to do.
I hope you come back to us. We need you. You have gotten many of us through some bad times. I wish we could help you.
God bless you.
Edie
Dear Art,
You sound so happy tonight. I think we, your long time listeners - there through thick and thin know how very deeply you and Ramona loved one another. You always said that you were soulmates. May your new love fill the void that Ramona left in your heart.
Long time listener and steadfast fan, first time communication.
Wishing you the best of everything!

Wait -- your wife (your "soul mate") just passed away less than four months ago, and now you're married to a 20 year old? How old are you, Mr. Bell, 60ish?
THAT IS JUST SICK!!!!
Just heard about your new wife. Sorry, guess I am just not ready to replace Ramona yet. She looks like your daughter.
Went to C2C tonight and was floored that your new wife is a gold diggin pinay. Pretty strange to say the least on both parts, but well I hope the best for you. Congratulations, you just inherited 42 RELATIVES WHO ARE STARVING VILLAGERS AND THEY WANT YOUR MONEY! Not to be gross or anything but that is some pretty expensive bootie. Trust me Art, they will get it too.
Art-------we are so thrilled for you. You look so happy. Congratulations! We have listened to you since you broadcast in Las Vegas. We so look forward to Sat/Sun nights with you.
Thank you-------such great news.
Art:
We all know no one in our lives can be replaced. But before you sell everything
that youv'e worked so hard building.
Take a ride for awhile. Make sure it's for real.
And folks... it is not unusual for widowers to marry very quickly....especially if they were happily married
I distinctly recall Arts Statement as to how he PROMISED Ramona to take CARE of the Cats!?
Art you should keep your promise! After all, it was Ramona who went with you through thick and thin and even when you were as poor as a Church-Mouse!!!
So sad and disappointed
in Sothern California
Arts behavior is puzzling to say the least.
Ramona was your soul mate'
The cats were like children to both of you.
Not only did you replace your soul mate' with another, a younger version
But you dumped the cats (the kids)!
Those poor little things ...
Not only did they lose their mom' so tragically,
But their dad' is dumping them,
so he can spend quality time with someone who could be his granddaughter.
I'm disgusted that Ramona was so easily and quickly replaced.
Here's some food for thought:
Your new wife can replace you just as quickly (in less than 3 months) with a much younger man ... .
and guess what?
She will have enough money (yours) to buy herself a younger man.
I agree with all of you who have found Art's behavior strange.
Yep, he's a pathetic sugar daddy and phony old fart who thinks that soul mate means just another trophy to collect.
So, he can move to Philippines and stay there forever and spare us (the listeners of CTC) his euphoric notions about his marriage (which is, quite frankly, idiotic).
Furthermore, I think that broadcasting from Manila is a stupid idea and I have decided not to listen to it.
art is on "tilt"..its common..my wife died two years ago..i started dating six months ago...marriage is not in my future..i wrote this six months after her passing:
lost my wife earlier this year after a long illness.i don't care how tough you think you are,watching a disease steal your wife's life just rips your heart out.i know of no greater
pain.
after she died,i received some grief counseling.best thing i ever did.the counselor told me she thought that i was angry at god.i told her i was.she said"thats o.k..god loves you even if you are mad at him".it was strangely comforting.
I've only prayed for one thing in my life for myself.that god would fix my wife.i know it was selfish,but i didn't care.he didn't do it.it makes me wonder sometimes.
people always ask me how she died.they have a morbid curiosity about it.like the answer is some piece to their own mortality puzzle.my wife was never afraid of death.she knew it was stalking her.she knew her time was limited, but she lived like she had another hundred years in front of her.thats all people need to know about how she died.
my wife died in her sleep right next to me.if i knew she would never wake up,i never would of let her go to sleep.it haunts me.
some of the finest people on this planet are nurses.
its odd.my wife's daughter wont set foot inside the hospital,yet some days if I'm driving by,i will pull in and just go sit in the lobby for a little while.it gives me peace.go figure.
things just happen sometimes.explanations won't soothe your grief anyway.
everyone is going to die.do everyone a favor and plan your funeral ahead of time.my wife's favorite movie was THE WIZARD OF OZ and she wanted SOMEWHERE OVER THE RAINBOW played at her funeral.everyone there knew it was her favorite song and even through all the tears everyone smiled when it was played.see what i mean?.
donate blood every chance you get.trust me on this.
i had some friends confide to me,a little sheepishly,that they didn't think they could do what i did for my wife.i always look them straight in the eye and tell them "yes you could!"and then i pray we never have to find out which one of us is right.
its hard loosing your number one fan.I'm back to work now,but its hard to find the same passion i brought to it before.i hope that will change.
doctors are sometimes wrong,but when they are right you had better strap on your seat belt.its an unholy ride.
all total my wife had fifty two hospital stays.we were both extremely private people.i bet family and friends knew about ten of them at the most.some of them got angry after finding out.i didn't care.there isn't a manual on how to do this stuff.
we never had children.sometimes i regret that.
of all the things i miss,the one thing i miss the most is holding hands.we would be walking somewhere and i would drop my hand back and she would take hold of it.there is nothing more reassuring then someone holding your hand...and watching your back.i just miss it.
never ever ever ever give up.i mean it.
most days i walk around like a pinball machine on tilt.trust yourself enough to know that
you're not up to making any major decisions.just stay put.thats my plan.
I've spent Halloween,Thanksgiving,Christmas and New Years in an intensive care unit or hospital room.home for the holidays has a whole new meaning.
i know they are well meaning,but hospitals always give you a survey about your "stay".its not a week in Vegas.its a brutal,exhausting experience that leaves you numb and longing to return home.stop asking about it.
life really IS short.
i think when i get old and look back over my life,this will have been the best year of my life,as disturbing as that sounds.I'm scared of dying.I'm afraid of death,but having seen my wife's dignity during her struggle gives me hope that when its my time,I'll handle it nearly as well.i hope so anyway.
sometimes i still catch myself reaching for the phone to call her.old habits are a bitch.
some people believe in god,others don't.the bible has a great mission statement about life in the book of Timothy:"i have fought the good fight,i have stayed the course,i have kept the faith".that sums it up for me.
before my wife died,she made me promise her that i would remarry someday.she said that i was a good man and a good husband and that i deserved to be happy again.there was one qualification however.she said that she couldn't be more beautiful then her.that was Pam.i guess you had to know her.for those of us who did,we already know there could never be anyone more beautiful then her.i love you baby.
Art Bell remarried? Just over 3 months after Ramonas passing?
I don't know about anyone else, but I would need much more time than 3 months to get over my wifes passing.
How does one fall in love in 3 months with someone 1/2 way around the world, while trying to get over the passing of the wife?
What does everyone else think? What's really going on?!
C'mon folks, give Art a break. What self-respecting American woman would give such a peculiar old coot the time of day? Art was lonely and realized that the only way to get a female would be to find one in a culture where girls are raised to revere and subjugate themselves to American men of means. What's sad is Art's lack of honesty with his audience and with himself. How refreshing it would have been if Art had just come out and said, "I got laid! And by a girl young enough to be my granddaughter!" His giddiness last night and his constant referrals to her photos (in her Naughty and Nice tee-shirt) were sickening and sad. Saying over and over again that this kid "is the most beautiful woman I've ever seen" when his wife has been gone three months? It's poontang, pure and simple. Beyond that, delusion. What's the difference, really, in Art going after a post-teen and what happened to Art's son years back? Men crave youth, but not all men are fool enough to go after youth. I hope Ramona DOES, as Art said, give Art that kick in the ass.
So disrespectful,of his dead wife,did he really love her
Dear Art, sorry for your loss.
I feel like blowing my mind up!
hmm. took you no more than 4 months to find a other woman from another country that is more than half your age. seems kinds kind of scummy and shady to me.
as stated before me. you made alot of promises to Ramona.
Long time listener, first-time typer. Congradulations on the new wife Art, her youthful beauty radiats as told by the spicey boner under my computer desk. How old is the child anyways? 14? Thats some fucked up shit. All cultural differences aside, I leave you with some advise a little VD and $2,500 taught me. Allways cary your wallet in the front of your pants Art, these 12 yr. old gypsies will steal your mastercard from right out under you dick. A savage species really. When did you get into 10 year olds?
-Yale
I find it strange that Art has replaced Ramona so quickly and is looking to get rid of his "children" the cats. On the show he sounded like a giddy 15 year old. My bet is that he will be back in the states within a year all by himself. I wish him happiness but this whole thing sounds a bit fishy. The fact that Art has said that he and Ramona never spent even one day apart, makes me wonder how he found love in the arms of another woman so quickly. He said she was his soulmate. You oly find that once in a lifetime. I wonder if Ramona's family has given him their blessing?
dude i saw a shadow person or like a shadow cat but it was on two legs
I'm shocked and,disgusted..this is very disturbing..Not sure I can listen to coast to caost anymore..perhaps they are all liars, and full of crap..this is just SICK!!She is a baby! YUK!!
n the movie, Moonstruck, a befuddled female asks her male friend, "Why do men chase women? Her friend gives a rather profound answer, "Because they are afraid of death."
It isn't mentioned in anything I have read, but I'm wondering if Ramona had ever been a smoker? Probably not, with Asthma... But i notice Art Alway's has a cigarette in his hand. Could it be he contributed to her illness, and subsequent death? And I agree, This little child of 21 is young enough to be his grandaughter. It's his life, but he is not being very practical or straight thinking. He needed someone to guide him into thinking clearly. This won't last very long. And he will find himself in a deeper depression than the one he was sinking into. A mature man would have waited , and then married a woman with maturity, that has learned more about the world, herself, and why men rush to hold on to that which is familiar, after losing a mate. Alas! He will find out oh too soon why things didn't work out, And She (just by being so young will make him feel oh so old. Sad , but true
I have lost ALL respect for Art Bell. What a TACKY, TACKY, TACKY man. The fact that it is Art's life doesn't make it any less tacky. Just ask Brian J. Doyle of Homeland Security.
Ed Dames, too? Ed found a Ukranian woman. These men are proud that they are not considered datable by women of this country because they are strange, arrogant and controlling so they must troll less fortunate countries for female companionship?
I agree that Art should beware: it's just as easy for Art's new bride to become tired of Grandpa and find a beautiful young boy her own age. Divorce may not be "legal" in your new country, Art, but cheating pays little mind to the law.
Ah, what promises some men will break (Ramona), what lives they'll upset (cats, family, fans), what a joke they'll become and what lies they'll tell themselves just to get a nice young obsequious piece of tail.
Art...........take some more time off. When I tune in, I would like to hear something of interest. All the drama of your life and the old coots just like you calling in to give you support are sickening. We need Barbara back for weekends. She was great.
How do you fools feel today now that he has remarried? First simpathy cards and 2 months later wedding cards.
Right on, Patricia!
Hey, give Art a break...he has obviously been taken over by some strange force, probably originating from beyond our galaxy..do you honestly think that anyone in their right mind would marry someone young enough to be their granddaughter three months after their wife died if they were not being influenced from beyond...we need to get George Norey to do a show on this...the title could be, "Art Bell, just crazy or control by planet X?"
This is sad and so pathetic ... an old goat like Art Bell ROBBING the cradle.
Art imagine when you were 50 years old, she was 10
This is going way to far for most peoples taste.
I lost all respect for you.
Ramona's family must be livid with this entire fiasco
Did you have to desecrate Ramona's memory like this?
You obviously have no tact at all!
3 months after loosing your soul mate? I can't believe it!
you were saying:
"Divorce is illegal in the Philippines"
This is no guaranty,
that the girl who could be your granddaughter will stay with you,
even though this is what you hope for.
The only thing a young girl loves' about an old man is what's in his wallet.
What kind of young girl goes for an old guy anyway?
Just wait until she gets tired of an wrinkled old fart like you
and gets a nice young stud her own age.

You people just don't understand...see Ramona has been reincarnaded...Art realized this as he spoke with this little girl...I'm sure it was hard for him to do...but he knew the only way to reunite with his wife was to marry this little kid...Art, you are so brave...I mean, knowing that every sane person from the East Coast to the West Coast will see you as a sick baby stealer...and you still had the courage to make yourself marry this poor little girl...the honeymoon night must have been very difficult for you, but you somehow forced yourself...this shows your true love for Romona,..that you would do all this, just for her...what a guy!!! You are my hero, I think it is safe to say that there is little doubt as to what you are...keep up the good work.
This is crazy real crazy makes me sick.
Hey,
Hold the phone everyone...I just went to the coast to coast web site..look at the bottom of the page where George Noory has an ad for children international...look at the little girl's picture, then go up the page and look at Art's new wife...I may be wrong, but if you this looks like the same person, just a few years in between...I'm not joking...look for yourself...this thing is getting stranger all the time...
What does Art Bell and Tom Cruise have in common?
I totally agree that this is a crock.... I heard about Ramona's death 6 weeks after since I don't have a chance to hear Art Bell that often and how he was distraught about her death...well I agree with everyone that there is something fishy....A 60 year old man marrying a 21 year old....give me a break.....to me he's just a DIRTY OLD MAN.....
Sorry Ramona....I'm sure you didn't give your blessing. HEY ART, HOPE THIS BABY WAKES UP AND KICKS YOUR ASS TO THE CURB.
I think Art's body has been taken over by an alien being who thinks he is a 25 year old stud. If Art EVER had any sort of realistic view of anything, he's lost it completely. I've alway's given him the benefit of dought, But I have to concede, he's a nut-ball.In the words of Rod Stieger: Do-Do-Do-Do Do- D0- Do- Do
Sorry that should have been ... Rod Serling . I'm must be smoking what Art has been using DOH !!!!!!
I'm sure Art is no longer reading these messages my friends. It is very disturbing about his marriage. My brother fell into the same trap while building a power plant in the PI. He was forced by gunpoint to marry the girl because she said he fathered the baby and was a virgin. His wallet and passport was stolen and he had to take refuge in the embassy and eventually was able to leave. Found out later that the girl then accused each one of his co-workers of fathering the baby and forced them to pay substantial amounts of money. My brother spents hundreds of thousands of dollars to PI lawyers for a paternity test and found out he was not the father.
Why Art bought a condo & not a house! also I know where they bought its a brand new building & not a 3rd world dump
A common problem with buying a house and lot is where a Filipina is married to a foreigner and the house and lot is bought in the Filipina wife's name. On the death of the Filipina the property cannot pass to the husband, as he is not a Filipino national, nor to any children they may have that have foreign nationality, and the property has to pass to Filipino relatives of the wife's family. This is not a problem with condominiums, as they can be passed on to Non Filipino nationals
Shocking news every which way. No respect for listeners, or respect for Ramona.
Listeners now feel betrayed by you Art. They were told to call in or e-mail you during your time of grief. Listeners felt compassion upon hearing your loss of Ramona. Then you did something shocking by disrespecting Ramona wishes by giving away her cats, and then marry 3 months after Ramona passed. Then you tell listeners to look at your new wife photos. This is so disrespectful to your listeners and to Ramona.
I agree with Dan above. I don't think this is what George Noory had in mind when he asked people to sponsor a child!One can not help but wonder what is going on here. How shocking and sickening!
I was feeling so sorry for Art. As fans we all loved him dearly. I sleep with headphones on listening to his show, faithfully for years. Out of respect for Ramona and due to the very short time since her passing, I waited to tell Art the weird dream I had, just recently. I was in bed and at the end of my bed was the living room sofa where my Dear husband of 36 years was sleeping. Why the sofa was no longer in the living room, I do not know. Anyway, in my bed with me was who else, but Art Bell. Yeah, strange and I don't even like french kissing, but guess what? Yeah, Art Bell was french kissing me and boy was it good! We were both sitting up in bed french kissing with my husband sleeping on the living room sofa, only the sofa was in the bedroom at the end of our bed. I told my sister about this crazy dream and my sister and I laughed ourselves silly and then my sister said, "You won't believe the dream I had awhile back." I told her to tell me about her dream. She said that she "was in Mom and Dad's shed and all of a sudden who comes up behind her but Kramer. (Yeah, the one from Seinfeld) Then next thing you know, she and Kramer were having sex and "Boy, was it good!" We just laughed and laughed. I told my sis, "Gee, wouldn't you think he (Kramer)could aford to take you somewhere nicer than Mom and Dad's shed?" ha ha I was going to email this to Art, however felt it would be disrespectful, being so close to Ramona's passing. Here I am feeling pity for Art, thinking how he is probably greiving himself sick over losing his beloved wife. I had even thought about the possibility of introducing my single sister who is in fact, a dear sweet, beautiful, talented, educated, loving and caring woman, but she is in her late forties. Didn't know her age would be so out of his league. In those photos, Art looked more like the Grandfather of the Bride! Art is to be pitied more now than EVER!!! George Noory you ARE my new favorite! To think that he had been so strongly on my mind and in my heart and that I pictured him being off due to difficulty going through the grieving process of losing the love of his life, Ramona??? Anyone know if Kramer is single?
Brenda, I think it was an alien (who looked like Art)you had such a good sex with.... ;)
Dal, that's what I really wanted to say. I don't know what makes people dream CRAZY dreams, but you can bet I won't be dreaming about french kissing Art, again. (That would be a nighmare!)The Art I thought I knew must not exist. By the way, my Dear husband thought the dream was hilarious, too! We have 3 cats who we dearly love and are very much a part of our family. We just don't get it?!?!? We are younger than Art and our 3 ADULT kids are OLDER, ALL SEVERAL years older than Art's new wife. I kept waiting to see the page on the web site that said APRIL FOOLS!
The 38 year old Teacher who "MOLESTED" Art's 16 year old son in 1999 went to prison for LIFE!
Just think ... there was only a 22 year age difference!
Art is 40 years older than his "NEW wife"
I rest my case ...
J. Anderson in the UK
Art- it doesn't look good for you at all. If you didn't kill your wife you sure had something to do with it. How could you marry so soon? I think something is fishy here.
Wow, this was a shocker this weekend folks! We as listeners know that he is not following what any grief counselor would tell him, don't do anything for at least one year! This is rebound right now and well, Art you are doing the Bell curve thing. You are cycling back up and have totally lost your mind and when you come down on the other side of that curve, hitting the bottom is going to be devastating.
I don't need to reiterate what other listeners have said about your promises you made. Remember you made these vows and millions of listeners witnessed this.
There are only a few reasons why a 21 year old girl would marry a 61 year old man and not come to the U.S., either she is already married over there or has a boyfriend that she just can not leave behind. That would explain why she does not want to come to the U.S. it is not just her staying behind with her family. Sad to say, but many young women are really fooling foreigners and are only after their money. She is crazy, millions of Filipinas would do anything to take her place and come to America just to get out of the Philippines.
The Philippines is NOT the tropical paradise Mr. Bell is fantasizing about. Do any of you remember several years ago, Martin Burnham, an American missionary from Wichita, Kansas. If not, go to archives.cnn.com
Headlines MANILA, Philippines (CNN) -- A Philippine commando raid meant to free two Americans and a Philippine citizen held hostage by the Islamic rebel group Abu Sayyaf ended with two of the hostage's dead Friday.
There have also been marketplace bombings in Manila by Muslim extremists as well as an attempt this year to overthrow the government. The place is politically unstable and safety has always been a problem even from pickpockets, muggers and thieves in the Philippines.
Art, you will be in big trouble but it can still be fixed. While living there he needs to put cameras all over their place and see which "male cousin" or kumpadre always visits their place. Then he can always come back here and leave her there. In that case, he does not have to pay alimony as long as he didn't petition her. My sources inform me that they think marriages in the Philippines are not recognized in the U.S. The only way it is accepted is that if they get married in U.S. Embassy in Manila or if they file their marriage document in U.S. Embassy.
So Art, we are not all wrong. Think what you are leaving, running away is not going to fix this. You of all people should know, once you are in a foreign country it is going to be very hard for the U.S. to help. Not all your millions of listeners are wrong Art. I think Ramona is giving you an answer, but your mind is to preoccupied to hear.
Does anyone know who we contact to let them know we want a new host on the weekends. He no longer deserves any time with 3 million loyal people.
Art has said over and over, "this is the BEST country in the world." Is he totally nuts to be moving to a politically unstable, terrorist ridden, third world pit??? He's lost his mind.
Art. If you've read any of these comments, you get the gist of how we feel. It's not that we're heartless bastards & don't care about your happiness. Many of us have listened to C2C for years. We grew to love Ramona & the cats as much as we loved you. When Ramona died and you laid your heart out there for your listeners we cried & ached along with you. I agonized about my own marriage, which is happy enough, but we weren't soul mates like you & Ramona. I fantasized about the great love you had for each other & how could you possibly bear such a great sorrow. I prayed that God would somehow comfort you and I envisioned you throwing yourself into the ecology movement or some other worthy cause. I thought that Ramona would find a way to lessen your grief through your pussies, but, alas....& forgive me for being crude...it wasn't animal pussy you reached out for. You know, I don't know about you...well, I guess I do, but it seems like more than a few days, weeks and months would go by before I could even THINK about replacing my soul mate & love of my life. THAT, Art, is why we are so ticked off and disillusioned about your behavior. If you follow the time line, Ramona couldn't have been gone more than a few days before you started a relationship with your Filipino honey. And, for you to go on & on about our need to go to your website to see pictures of "the most beautiful woman I've ever seen". What was Ramona? That picture of her in the white strapless dress qualified her as being pretty damn beautiful too. Of course, she got older and at 47 not too many women can compete with a 21 year old. YOU sure as hell couldn't compare to a 30 year old man, let alone a 21 year old. Yeah, old coots were calling in & giving you the high fives..there's a lot of shallow people in this world. I look at people like Dana Reeves and my admiration knows no bounds. Too bad you missed the boat on this one, Art. If you had only waited a respectable time before you replaced your soul mate, Ramona, with a little girl who probably can't hold a candle to her....you would have had our respect & love. Now I have nothing but contempt for you. Enjoy your marriage & money while you can. You can only keep up the charade of youth & vigor for so long...probably about as long as you mourned Ramona. Good bye.
I'm hoping that Art's craving for the companionship of young fawning flesh--at WHATEVER cost--will help Art understand better what happened to his sixteen-year-old son. I agree with Chris Terry and J. Anderson's messages; WHAT is the difference, really? The perpetrator was a teacher, true, and has NO place teaching youth again, but isn't what Art's doing just as inappropriate? Rationalizing all the way and excusing himself because it's Art's life and oh, look, Art's so adventurous? Well, I bet Art's son (only five years younger than Naughty Girl) and the teacher felt the SAME way about their life when they were caught.
ART WILL NEVER ADDRESS THIS OR FACE THE MUSIC OF HIS ONCE ADORING PUBLIC.
WE FEEL DUPED! And not by "love" or sex, either. If Art had admitted his trip was nothing but sex, we would still be disgusted, but I think we would understand, eventually--grief and all. We feel duped that anyone whom we've given so many hours to and trusted (considering the often bizarre subject matter) can fool himself to this degree AND expect us all to be fooled, too. And we were so very fond of Ramona, and Art and Ramona's life together gave Art a Regular Guy appeal amidst the paranormal and wild notions.
Missed Coast to Coast last night. Can anyone tell me if George mentioned Art's "new life" in any way?
Some lust for money, don't let your dick run your life......
Good riddence you turd.
I'm going into a diabetic coma reading all the "sorry about your loss" messages from the great loyal fans you've lied to over the past 7 years.
Folks, believe me, your getting the clean end of the stick here, so don't feel sorry for this misdirected loser. You've all been duped, big time.
There was a brief moment in time you, Mr. Bell, actually had it right.
C2C had a grip on the heartbeat of unusual subjects, very interesting phenomenon we all loved to hear about and your delivery was impecable. That must have been your cue.
You dropped dime on a fanbase eager to learn from a source they became to trust. Shame on you.
And then you abused that trust, and what do you know ... out came the dog and pony shows starring a lineup of phony, self appointed experts with no credentials to back their BS up. Or, they lied about their credentials to make a buck.
And YOU allowed it to happen.
The "Mother Ship" following the Hale-Bopp Comet? Please. Yeah, have a drink and live that one down.
Just go away. Turn your mic off will you? Leave these people alone. Your commercial value just dropped 60 points.
Go sell Viagra. You're going to need it -- if you get the chance to use it.
Art - Woah dude. Whats going on? We've listened through every crazy crisis youve ever come up with. On the air, off the air, back problems, etc. Ramona dies and I thought it was wierd..WIERD that you were on the air so soon after her passing. Now this? The Quickening? More like the Sickening.
Not listening anymore.
Is Art's new wife really his daughter!
A REQUEST:
Folks, if George Noory makes any comment whatsoever on Art's DOLLY FOLLY, please report it here. I have to miss Coast to Coast most nights.
Thank you very much.
Art, you have foresaken all that you appeared to stand for and shown your true colors. You are a shallow and careless person that has abused the trust and faith of your fans.
You do not understand the "Flip" culture and are in for a world of hurt--but you deserve it.
I cannot believe the crying and gnashing of teeth as well as the insults and denigration over Art remarrying. All I can say is "life goes on". I suspect that loudest critics are those old, dried up, menopausal women who are upset that they cannot compete with younger women. So what if a woman 40 years his junior has decided to marry him!!! It's not like any of you had a chance with Art. Were you all fantasizing about being possible "Ramona Replacements" yourselves?
We have more important things to worry about like the war in Iraq and the true insanity that the Bush Administration is acting out.Do you mean to tell me that Art's choice of a wife is more important to you than being raped by oil companies, pharmaceutical companies, all manner of politicians and the Bush Crime Family?
Get over it folks. He will live to regret his choice and you can be there to chuckle about it. In the meantime see true issues that need addressing like Republicans stealing elections and being a rubber stamp for the expansion of corporate greed the refusing to stem the tide of illegal aliens entering the country. WAKE UP!
The comment about Ramona replacements is rediculous. No ones saying they wanted to be the next Ramona. People are just saying its wierd. VERY wierd. I wish Art well, but Ive had it with all the garbage. He has no credibility left and thats pretty amazing to say considering the topics of the shows! I wish him bluebirds, but I will not listen when hes host.
And Im a 32 year old male, thank you.
yea...Art had something invade his body..It was that little thing at his midsection called the "little shadow man" ..
I see it playing out this way.
He-s already feeling the pressure..Island Viagra is getting insanely expensive. He holds out for a while getting Pfizer to be a sponsor.
Then dies because he cant afford both Viagra and heart medication.
The 21 year old takes his wallet
and sues Viagra. Lives out her life running the Phillipines with that money
and wearing all of Imeldas shoes.
...George will have her on as his last guest at the end of time..or when the show is over in late 2006.
Art..please put that down as my prediction for 2006.
Oh and ps...
one of your loons i believe said he predicted the asteroid "art bopp"
was headed directly toward the Phillipines.
I suggest you move to as near the top floor as you can get.
Payne, you have a good point. The nation is in frightful shape. To whom Art Bell is sticking it is small potatoes.
However, there remains a tremendous and complicated feeling of betrayal. We've been with Art through thick and thin, and we've certainly been asked to suspend our disbelief. But asking us to believe the latest turn of events is insulting. A forty-year age difference is capable of turning anyone's stomach. This goes way beyond trophy wife. If these exploits were of any other public figure, Art would probably be asking our opinion. What if in Art's grief, he instead joined a fundamentalist cult and started to brag about its benefits? I think there'd still be "crying and gnashing of teeth." As far as "insults and denigration," what exactly is Art doing to his audience if not insulting us?
For some inexplicable reason, we expect more from Art than a tired cliche. A cliche with a twist, no less. And the sad part is that Art didn't say, "Well, everyone, the truth is that I can't be a day without an adoring female, and I have an opportunity for that female to be a malleable college-aged girl from a disenfranchised country whom I can rob of precious youth. Even as ridiculous, misguided and smacking of ulterior motive as this opportunity might be; my ego, libido and fear of abandonment need me to take it. Please understand." At least then there'd be a slim chance that Art's honesty might make it a tad less disgusting. After all, you can't blame a guy for trying.
Spite or jealousy? If it were only that simple. Our stomachs are turning too much already to stomach the idea of competing over anyone for Art Bell, much less a silly younger woman. I think many of the women in Art's audience (menopausal or otherwise) are collectively relieved that we most definitely do not have a chance with Art Bell. Remember, too, that generally speaking, women were much more forgiving then men of Clinton's Monica Moments, but I doubt they would have been if Bill had giddily recounted how much in love he was with Monica and the life he was planning with her. At least amongst the denials, Clinton had the decorum to admit it was purely physical. Bill isn't the only one who couldn't keep it in his pants at a most critical juncture.
I never doubted Art's love and utmost respect for Ramona. No, it's Art's reckless and greedy disregard of customary etiquette--or even of lip service--towards the memory of his very recently departed wife. It's Art promoting a yearning for, and taking advantage of, a post-pubescent after what happened to his own son. It's Art's arrogant expectation that we'll accept his foolishness by fooling ourselves right along with him ... simply because he's Art.
Art's mixture of giddiness, pining school boy, vulnerability, tenth-grade-locker-room boasting, self-delusion and defiance was in such poor and pathetic taste the other night, it left many of us unsettled. Not likely forgotten, either, unfortunately. Makes Brad and Angelina look downright classy.
Well said, Sally.
I have listened to C2C for 12 years, and through that time came to respect Ramona tremendously. I always thought that she was one of the best things about Art Bell, and showed that he had some intelligence and depth.
Her death was shocking, and to me a bit mysterious. I considered that Art's private business, however, and just hoped that in time he would heal from this grievous loss.
It was just tremendously disappointing to hear him talk about his new (child) bride the other night with such preening pride. He displayed a complete lack of sensitivity and came across like a ridiculous, shallow man. I was saddened and disgusted that someone so many of us felt we "knew" as a person who had lost his soulmate was really acting like a frat boy on spring break.
Maybe this is some kind of grief reaction on his part...I hope so. I hope he gets over and wakes up in a while and comes to his senses. It's like he's another person entirely...the guy who was married to and loved Ramona and now this new guy who has publicly trashed that memory by waxing rhapsodic about a young girl.
Very strange and sad.
Well, George Noory, you are doing the right thing....if you value C2C...remain quiet (very quiet)...don't say anything about this situation...just keep chasing ghosts and shadow people..if you come out in defense of the child molester...you can kiss C2C goodbye and that would be a shame because it really is a great show.
Bring back Barbara Simpson on the weekends!
Dan - the pix are still there; they are just not at least the first thing you see! If you do a search on "Airyn" voila!
No more C2C for me if Artie sticks around.
I found his, "Have you seen her picture," over and over again nauseating. I remember thinking that it was going to be hard for any woman to step into Ramona's shoes - no matter who he was with would constantly be compared to her. I thought she would be irreplaceable to him, even though he would probably eventually remarry. He came across as loving her so much. Wow. Was I ever fooled.
He played a love song in his bumper music and said that he dedicated this to Ramona. A month later, he is on dedicating this same song to his new wife. Obviously, they don't know enough about each other to have a special song.
He talks about how much he loves her. Well, the fact that she won't move to the States, or even consider spending half a year in Manila and half in Pahrump tells me that she doesn't love him. Nor is she willing to make any sacrifices for him. Geez, Art, she really loves you, doesn't she? He is the one with the career. Keep that wallet handy, Art.
The fact that he calls her by Erin instead of the correct Irene tells me that he is probably pretty controlling. Also, he has retired her from teaching. He is telling her what to do and how to live her life. A real woman, like Ramona, wouldn't tolerate this. She would kick his butt. No wonder he wants someone so young.
He is selling everything off. Silly man.
He keeps talking about how he wants to be truthful to his listeners, then tells us she didn't know who he was. If she is college-educated, she sure as heck knows how to use Google. Plus, his ham radio buddy would have told her all about him. When someone makes a point about being honest, they usually aren't.
He was corresponding with her in January. He made the announcement about waiting a year for his big news two or three weeks after his soulmate passed. I notice how he doesn't bring that up.
He always talked about how he couldn't take care of himself. Ramona handled all of the financial stuff and paid the bills. This is an argument for teaching both sons and daughters how to take care of themselves. I hope to heck he learns enough about his own finances that he doesn't leave preschooler responsible for them.
I guess he ran out of clean underwear.
I'm with you noolish, bring back
Barbara Simpson for weekend, She was great.
He said that he attended her graduation while he was there. Was she graduating from grade school or college?
Bring back Barbara Simpson on the weekends!
Noolish

No thanks, the last thing C2C needs is that Nazi. Still with Noory and Ian Punnet.
I don't want him petitioned off the air. I want to continue to enjoy this drama. Too much fun. I'm sure the young lady can watch out for herself
How many more months until there is a little Artie or Artesia making an entrance in to world :-)
I listened to Coast to Coast last night, and three other times during the week, and George Noory has said nothing pertaining to Art Bell. Noory apparently has said little about Bell's marriage to his mail order child bride than to the effect,"I don't know what's going on with Art, I wish him the best." Noory's silence is deafening. Undoubtedly he hears scuttlebutt. I wonder what he knows that we don't.
I am still not over Ramona's death. Did he go crazy? And I cannot believe about the cats! This is heartbreaking. I lost my soulmate less then a year ago and I doubt that I will ever recover...and I still have the cats. Somehow, he just doesn't seem sincere anymore.
Art, I am so sorry for your loss. We catch your show and enjoy it very much. A time to live a time to die a time to laugh and a time to cry.You will be in our prayers. tondf@yahoo.com KE4ERP
Aloha Art,
Our belated condolence to you for the sudden loss of our beloved Mona...cousin to us in Hawaii. Her mother's only sister remembers her dearly in prayers daily.
Love & Mahalo for her happiness to the end,
D.L.
from Hawaii
Great post, pantherchick. One thing I have started noticing now is that when he talked about Ramona's death, he talked about how it affected himself. He didn't comment on what it was that made her unique. He commented that she had done everything for him, including paying bills in advance. He said that he swept her off her feet - twice. The more logical comment would have been that she swept him off HIS feet, too.
He indicated that any woman that followed Ramona (see - still all about him. He can't handle having nobody taking care of him) would have to recognize that she was his soulmate. I remember thinking that this wasn't much of a prize, following in a soulmate's footsteps, and that most woman wouldn't be willing to play second fiddle to a ghost, other than groupies or golddiggers.
He was interviewing a physicist from Harvard (can't remember her name). This was shortly after his wife died, and he was falling all over her, "You are such a gorgeous woman," etc. etc. etc. He kept harping on it. I thought, "Well, it is your show, but she is on here because she is brilliant." He was more interested in her looks than in her degrees and accomplishments.
I wondered what hambone and Art had in common. I think you have hit it bang on the head - they are both interested in young things.
Art is all about Art. I think he is like most narcissists - they can be very charming people, but the public side is radically different from the private one. A radio career would be one way of meeting his narcissistic supply; he had the adoration of millions. Like you said, he figured everyone was interested in him and his pets.
Ramona was way too good for him.
It is Art's life, he is an adult he can do as he wishes. I hope he is happy and enjoys his new life. Life is short! Get the most out of it that you can and have some adventures. He was crying and sad 4 months ago and he is smiling and laughing today. Thatis better!
Better to have loved and lost than never to loved at all.
Last night on Coast to Coast George Noory announced that Art will be taking the weekend off due to a virus. I wonder who beleives that? He just doesn't want to talk about him moving to the Phillipines, or his child bride.
The court pre-trial depositions revealed that Brain Lepley (the alleged rapist of Bell's son) did not deceive Art Bell IV, as the oral sex act between the two was consensual and that Bell Jr. was of legal consenting age. Lepley was tried and convicted, but the case was subsequently reversed by the appellate court.
RE: human trafficking -- Much of the human trafficking in Southeast Asia centers around Thailand, where the sex trade accounts for between 2 to 14 percent of the GNP. However, Manila is still a hub for sex tourism and many girls are kidnapped there. They are shipped from southeast Asia (Indonesia, Thailand) to countries like Kazakstan, Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, and Turkmenistan to Russia and then on through Ukraine to Western Europe.
Much better. Remember, there is yet a third page here if this one gets to long.

Where is Dr. Evil? He really livened up the joint!
I can't believe there are only 15 signatures at the site to get Art Bell off C2CAM. Are you people pressing the right button to save your sig after u sign it?
I don't want him petitioned off the air. I want to continue to enjoy this drama. Too much fun. I'm sure the young lady can watch out for herself
I think the drama is over. Eventually an announcement will be made that Art will not be broadcasting from the Philippines. Some technical/practical reason will be given. And, it will be bullshit. IMO
LUH HUH HUH OOSERS!
The Rense stuff is pretty sad. Ramona stood by him while all of this was going on. She put up with a bunch of grief from people who believed this stuff, and she probably stuck up for Art and son-Art. She stayed with him, despite people looking questioningly at her. She stayed with him, despite questions that she was probably asking in her own mind. How many tears did she shed at that time, standing up for her man? That has to be heartbreaking for a woman.
His repayment for her loyalty is to talk pityingly about how tough life is going to be for him after her death. There was nothing mentioned about Ramona's uniqueness during his self-serving broadcast. It was all about how he felt.
He repays all of her sleepness nights sawing logs in the next room of the RV while she died. It was too tough for HIM to stay up. He was tired, after all. He couldn't even drive her to a doctor or hospital. He owed her that, at the very least.
His response to her need has stripped the human skin back and exposed the cold, reptilian heart. It was always there. We are just now seeing it for what it is.
He now pees on her memory by lauding Airyn as the most beautiful woman he has ever seen and calls her his soulmate. The song he previously dedicated to Ramona is now dedicated to the child bride.
Now he hides behind, "Ramona must have wanted this for me. I told her to come and kick my ass if this was wrong." Pretty easy to say. Pretty easy to say that she was given the job of guardian angel. (Pretty arrogant, too. Like Ramona wants to spend the afterlife still washing your underwear and living vicariously through you, Art.)
Shame on you, Art. Ramona was worthy of so much more than you gave her.
I lifted this from another forum and posted here and on Coast 2 Coast:
Could be BS could be be real?
Knew there was Oats and Gunderson, but didn't know there were actually two cases 20 years apart. Thanks for clearing that up.
ShadowCaster's post on fantastic forum. Interesting.
This isn't over yet.
Great post, Laurie.
I bet he was on video confrence when the pizza was delivered..What a jerk!
what an ungrateful putz....
Egads....please say it ain't for real!
Does anyone else think George sounded just a tad bit disdainful when he announced Art's "virus" excuse at the very beginning of the Fri's program?
I caught it too, Yeti...
he didn't elaborate like he usually does on how wonderful Art is....was...
Did I miss something? I thought Ramona died in the RV.
Did I miss something? I thought Ramona died in the RV She did but its a bigass city bus size RV not a 20 footer
Thanks
Arts webcam picture on the C2C website this weekend is his new bride, dated 4/22/06.

I noticed that, rather than say, "Art has a virus", he said, "Art says he has a virus".
Where is the webcam picture for this weekend? (link please) Is it the same old pictures of the child bride in the slutty T-shirt we saw before?
LMAO about Art farting and snoring in bed..LOLOL..Such a horrible metal picture.(and smell).Poor Ramona

For example, Art Bell, the radio show host, insists that Apollo astronauts landed on the moon, and he supports the Bush administration's story of the September 11 attack. Art Bell also supports discussions about all sorts of issues that I would describe as idiotic, such as ghosts and UFOs.
Does art Bell truly believe that astronauts walked on the moon? Does he truly believe that fires caused the World Trade Center towers and Building 7 to collapse? Does he truly believe that Martians are creating "crop circles"?
A few years ago there was a confusing conflict between Ted Gunderson and Art Bell, in which Art Bell felt that Ted Gunderson was accusing him of child molesting.
http://educate-yourself.org
Art Bell quit doing his radio show, supposedly because he was so upset by this. He later decided to return to the radio. Today he supports the Bush administration, the Apollo moon landings, and discussions about UFOs and ghosts. You can determine the truth from the lies simply by taking the opposite of whatever Art Bell tells you. Coincidence?
Or was Art Bell offered protection from the law in return for resuming his radio show and defending the perverts in our government
wow, i am shocked and appaled @ all of the attacks toward Art. All of you were so quick to console and parallel your lives with the radio master mind, but it is obvious you had no compassion. you only wanted to be someone in his life, now you rip at him like hungry phirannahs. none of you have any idea what he went through and the pain i have no doubt he still suffers. Not one of you are any beter than the crucifiers of christ. This man has done nothing other than try to take away his pain, and get on with his life. I hope all of you are taught to identify with Art by a similar loss. maybee then you will have some compassion. Heretics!
Sadd, you have some reading to do to catch up.
Hey Sadd, start reading over here www.cadenhead.org Many informative links in there. When you are done, get back to us.
I know nothing more now than i knew before with the exception of this.
It's funny that George Noory is talking about sending money to children in 3rd world nations... and Art is marrying them. The little ad banner for adopting poor children on the c2c website has a picture of a girl who looks almost exactly like Art's new child-bride
This although cruel is very funny and in humor everything goes. I still say you are all extremely judgemental and mean spirited. And hope that your Karma catches up to you! good day
Sorry Sadd....
That won't work. Bad karma is what Art and his friend are doing exploiting young women in foreign countries in desperate situations. If that rocks your world and you want to be one of the 3 monkeys , Hear, See, and speak no evil, keep your head in the sand, but don't tell the rest of us what we can or should not talk about. It would be a good idea for you to research the subject of women and children being exploited in other countries.
i absolutely never would tell you what you can or cannot talk about or feel or how to live your life in fact i encourage you to live as freely as you want. I am just sure that everyone else would like to live just as freely without ridicule.
Sadd, you encourage the exploitation of women and children from third world countries?
okay unless i am completely missing something, where is the proof of exploitation? Is it not just speculation. I feel as if i am missing something seriously, and maybee i need you to dish it up on a silver platter. I haven't seen any proof. Is she not in her 20s. I would think that if the man were doing something wrong he would not make it a point to tell 10 million listeners. I will admit I am shocked at the whole turnaround. I am sure it is to mask some pain, however I dont think he killed his wife and I dont subscribe to the con theory. If i am missing something please highlight it for me.
Please, guys, don't answer this idiot named Sadd.
If you don't think this is exploitation then I can't help you.
Thats what i thought. now i am an outcast because i dont subscribe to your beliefs. I gave you a chance to spell it out for me and for what ever reason you cant or wont so you just call me an idiot. Thats nice, way to prove my point.
Your moral base is not the same as mine be that as it may.
If you are right, at the very worst for Airyn she gets a beter life. at the very worst for Art, well then he will get whats justfully his. Later fellas i gotta crash. have a good night.
Justice is what I'm hoping for.
I hope you have a really good nightmare, you idiot Sadd.
Is it not possible for us to simply cease the controversy and speculation, and allow our second-favorite Coast-host to do as he pleases? Afterall, he loves Ramona.
"You just.. never know.."

He was, and always will be, a good man. Do not fret, dear coast audience, for I have seen what happens, and in fact this was all meant to be.. for both his and Ramona's sake. Now if you'll excuse me, I have a computer to recover. =]
I prefer George Noory, anyway.
George Noory is a good man, a good man!
i've already done the numbers, and art and his new wife were meant for each other! oh this is so wonderful!
This comment references the "help sponsor 300 poor children" ad by George. If it only takes a couple bucks per kid per month, why doesn't he simply foot the bill for all of em? I mean, he is a millionaire.

Stop talking tagalogg, you hypocrite!
i dont appreciate all of this badtalk about meh. if i faced you guys, you'd be done for.
-A.B.
I am considering closing this link, for it seems to draw those who are unwelcome elsewhere.
ive already started listening to tonights show (satellite) and george made a few comments about art! wait'll you hear it!
f
What did George say?
that guy is full of it. I listen on satellite too. It doesn't start for half an hour.
I don't expect George to rail on Art, but if he acts like this is a good thing, I'll never listen to him again, or at least take him seriously.
Visitor-Your satellite must be a time machine too!
I'D LIKE TO ASK YOU ALL SOMETHING:
I know smoking is VERY difficult to give up, but ...
Hypothetically, let's say that each and every one of us reading this page is a heavy smoker. Then let's say that each and every one of us is living with a mate who has severe, life-threatening asthma. Don't you think most of us would make every possible effort NOT to smoke around our mate? Smoking outside alone at a distance from the house, maybe, but nothing closer.
I couldn't believe Art said Ramona's asthma was not effected by cigarets. Wouldn't ANY doctor advise Ramona and Art to stop smoking immediately? This is just as baffling to me as any other of Art's odd doings.
What am I missing here? I'll ask the other page, too.
Smoking is real hard to quit. I guess neither one of them had the willpower.
Yikes!! I think its strange that he even has some kids that dont even belong to him on their from a space camp!
"How would YOUR husband, brother, father, uncle, son, handle the things you have said???? Put this close to home so you can really FEEL what you have done!"
OK, you asked that of us. Now let me ask this of you: If Ramona had been YOUR wife, sister, mother, aunt or daughter, how would YOU have handled it? If Airyn had been YOUR daughter or niece, how would YOU have felt?
Well, I sure hope that if my husband, brother, father, uncle or son loses his wife, he'll have the decency and self-control to WAIT. WAIT until his wife's memory is given the time and respect it deserves--and that he's asked others to give. WAIT for the desperation to lessen. WAIT to find whatever physical comfort he can. WAIT to grab the first willing body that happens along for fear it's his last chance. WAIT to announce that this willing body, this port in a storm is the "most beautiful woman" he's EVER seen. WAIT to consider the feelings of loved ones (and the insulted intelligence and loyalty of the viewing audience). WAIT to consider the short and long-term consequences. WAIT until it at least APPEARS that he's waited.
Perhaps our assumption that Art Bell should know better is wrong. It makes us question everything else about Art.
George Noory says that Art will be on the air with him the week of April 24th to make an announcement about the move to the Phillipines and the set up for the broadcasts from Manila. Only the second time both men will be on air together, the last being Hurricane Katrina's arrival on shore. George says it will be at least 2 weeks for the show to be ready to go in Manila. Might I suggest some bumper music for this historic tete a tete? "Don't Stand So Close To Me" by the Police.
i had the weirdest dream about ramona, art's dead wife, she was with a Gray in a triangle shape ufo and the lights were red and flashing. she was in the control window with a zelta-gni in her hand, and the zelta-gni was talking, not her. but it was her voice and she kept asking "Art? Art?" like that.
Wow guys. we are some serious ghost hunters.
I love all the sharp insight opinions given by everyone except two.
Let's face it, nothing will happened to Art-the-young panty-grabbing bell. Art is heading to another country that pushes little girls on old men. he will cheat on his wife with a younger girl. And George will continue boring us to death until we all drop the radio station.
sorry for the errors in my post folks... I can't go back an edit it.
I think it is tacky to use ur show to sell stuff..KNOWING people will buy it just because ART BELL owned it..He could sell a terd and someone would pay $3000 for it jmore less a plasma TV..Cant he use TVs in Manilla? I think he is a wack JOb and needs to lower his pain med dose..I think he isnt thinking straight.
I think I get it; Marry someone in Pampers so you can DEPEND on having someone to change your Depends! For gosh sakes; now that is having something in COMMON!
Hey everyone needs to give Art a break, he is a windower for goodness sake...we also need to give the Menendez brothers a break, they are orphans after all...
This is kind of weird. I wonder if this is the reason he is not on the air. Looks like he has some sort of skin contusions.
PS
we need a chatroom where we all can get together and chat about this...
CSI Pahrump-I met a woman about 4 years ago who lost her marriage over the Y2K scam. She bought everything Bell was hawking from the freeze dried food rations to the freeplay radios. She spent a fortune on it, but just in case that wasn't enough stress on her marriage, she bought 900 lbs of perishable food right before New Years and had a local store store in their cooler to be picked up on Jan 1. Her husband left her after that. She was a nice woman, but her husband thought she was nuts and left her after that. They'd had a long marriage before that. Art Bell hurts people with his scams. His saying he always tells the truth on the air. Oh please! I can't believe this guy is going to go on like nothing happened. It just makes me sick to my stomach.
Jam Bo Ree, You are absolutely right. Art does look like he's got some kind of skin condition. Remember thos people who sued some resort hotel because they got bit by bedbugs? They looked just like Art. I hope he is miserable in the Philipines. Can you imagine going from a dry desert climate like Nevada to a humid, sweltering sweatbox? Someone who isn't used to that kind of weather could come down with all kinds of shit. I know he lived in Okinawa at one time, but that was when he was still a young man. Old people can't tolerate climate changes like that. He'd better watch that he doesn't get terminal heat rash of the pecker.

my feelings exactly. I thought it was pretty weird when he came back a few weeks after her death. When my brother died, I couldn't even put one foot in front of the other the first month. I could barely see straight or stand up. I felt like I was in the middle of the ocean in a furious storm and whenever I got a breath another wave of pain would take me under. If my husband died, I couldn't imagine it not being even worse. But what a downer, I am! I guess I must not be a "risk taker" like Art. I guess, if my husband dies I should leave the morgue and head straight for the chat rooms to find myself a new hubby, so I'm not a weird person who doesn't get that life is short. I guess if that happened, I should be a selfish pig and jump straight into bed with someone I met in the hospital nursery. Since I'm only 39, I'd have to go straight to the incubators to find a mate young enough to be as good as Art Bell. God, this whole thing is so sickening....
PS
we need a chatroom where we all can get together and chat about this...
Why? Don't we have anything at all better to do with our time and our lives?
I have nothing better to do because its 330am and i am in my bed on my laptop.....
I hope everyone pays attention to this:
Art Bell knew he was going to marry Airyn just three weeks after her death. This is not just my opinion, this is factual based on the dates of his own announcements.
Please note the date on the first post in this thread from Fantastic Forum I will post the address to below. It is the night Art Bell first came out with a partial announcement (the mystery announcement) which was actually more of a request on his part, the thread was created as the show was taking place on January 29th 2006 by FF's moderator "Cpt Spike Mike",
Read it here for yourself:
That date was when Art Bell would have already known that he was going to get married to Airyn. And this is the important thing: That was ONLY THREE WEEKS and like 2 days from the day of Ramona's death, not 2 or 3 months like many of you have said--you are talking about the wedding ceremony itself which is true, but he knew he was going to marry her that night as indicated by his first announcement or request of his listeners. "Ask me in a year". But it looks like he just couldn't to show off his new trophy wife so on his show on 4-16-2006 is when he blabbed about it. I even recall him saying "maybe I shouldn't tell you about this now, but..."
Are we supposed to believe that Art Bell decided to marry Airyn after just 3 weeks of online communications while he grieved both privately and then also on the air--all while he milked his audience for sympathy with "I'm so lonely" (poor me).
A couple of things to mention:
The above link I gave was originally a "sticky", now Art Bell himself recently posted on 04-24-2006
(read here)
...and now Fantastic Forum has removed the original "sticky" with the new one from Art Bell. If I didn't know any better I would think Art is busy trying to cover his tracks. I hope the original thread doesn't disappear, but the only way I could find it was because I copied the address from the internet explorer window.
Also the wikipedia entry for Art Bell is wrong about the date, it fails to mention the first moment when Art decided to marry Airyn: January 29th, just 3 short weeks after her death:
In honor of Ramona
Art, indeed, is the luckiest-man-in-the-world. In the span of less than one lifetime, he has met and married two soulmates, two loves-of-my-life, and the two most beautiful women in the world.
This is more than most people do in a hundred lifetimes.
He also has his own personal pig and possibly piglets in the future ... thus, he will never be wanting for food, if he likes ham well enough.
No wonder you people are so upset and wish Art to fall from grace or be guilty of some terrible crime(s).
Jealousy is a bad, bad, thing.
Is it me, or I just can't take C2C seriously anymore?
Wow, does that young lady look alot like Ramona....but...I thought the days of young girls having to marry old men to help their families were long gone....
Feudalism is alive and well....
ick
BTW.....last night the guests's description of psychic vampires described my mother-in-law perfectly
BTW.....last night the guests's description of psychic vampires described my mother-in-law perfectly
--
we must have the same mother inlaw. Mine went off on vacation a thousand miles away and I literally felt like a 1000 lb bag of sand was lifted off my shoulders, till her plane touched down again. I can feel her sucking the life out of me again as I type.
Art's sickness worsens. It looks like his teeth are slightly discolored now, and he has the same liver-spotty blemishes on his face.
What happened to his teeth? His mustache is gone because they're hard to dye.
My mother-in-law is a whiner, complainer, has to take her heart medicine in front of people and announce, "It's time for me to take my medicine", complains she's out of breath and that she needs a walker, ran up credit card bills going to the casinos, and always wants people to feel sorry for her. And that she's always poor but she don't need much and blah, blah....ugh, I just wrote her off, and avoid the in-laws now....who cares what they think...haha...I'm free
What happened to his teeth? His mustache is gone because they're hard to dye.
_____
Looks like one of his front teeth are missing, too. Even a gray mustache would look better though than what he looks like now....
She fell in love with him, ho, yeah, right....
Did the network hire, George btw, or did Art? I like Noory better....very classy, polite man....never loses his cool...such the opposite of me...maybe that's why I like him. I find him tranquil and his personality soothing.
That tom Cruise imitation on that video had me rolling...lol!
George sounds like he has to much spit in his mouth. He should swallow more often.
wanna take a ride? No no no.....please no!
Midnight in th desert digging big old hole...
art should take a ride...right over to his dentist to get that scum tooth looked at.
I feel like they are all in a tough spot, but you have to choose right from wrong and you can't support something this sick and twisted. Yeah, just look at Arts picture and tell me that young beautiful girl wants to spend the next 30 years with him.
_______
I haven't listened to C2C since this whole thing, but it's wrong I throw the baby out with the bathwater. Looks like George is keeping quiet, so he's probably stunned, too. I don;t think Art will last in the Phillipines. I've been to the tropics and unless you're used to the climate, you develop rashes and the humidity is draining and at Art's age it will be too much to take. And some condo in Manilla is probably filthy with pollution, and the 2 cats he plans to take will go nuts....And I had just read an article on the BBC site about these young women have to sell themselves to foreigners on the net...how ironic this happens
Those aren't the same teeth that are in the wedding photos.
What is that peice of paper they are reading from in the photos.....vows?
geez...
Did you see Ghost-Wolf's aliases? Not the person Art said he was.
Are those his killin' teeth?
Why does Art have to insist on moving to the phillipines when everyone knows that those women have the intent of moving here for a better life? He is doing that to force a point and a lie that she actually wants him for him....I wouldn't beleive that bullshit under any circumstances
You migrate from one board to another. Sick. I see you all still suffer from lack of "Judge NOT...."
We are having a civil and open discussion about Arts Marriage and move to the PI...How does that make us child molesters.That is about the stupidest thing I have ever heard..We are not molesters but I am SURE you are a child.
This moron doesn't want anyone talking about Art Bell at all. He went by a name of Fedup on the other board. I'm beginning to wonder if he is Art Bell, or just another loon is a control freak---like Art Bell...
No surprise there...
Strange loud booms
The friend-in-law is now posting on FF, here is some of what he has to say:
"I would also like to address the security issue, Art is in a very safe place and unless you want to get shot, I wouldn't recommend trying to visit him in Manila. He will be well guarded."
I prefer to not betray his trust and friendship by relaying any of his private life and personal business. Like I have stated before, he is a friend and I do everything I can to respect his privacy. "
www.fantasticforum.com
The whole thought that anyone is going to go after Art in the Phillipines that isn't related to the girl is hilarious. Only Art or Ed Dames is that paranoid, so that would be my guess as to who posted it. Or some syncophant from hell. There seem to be a few of those who are gushing over his nuptials to a child-bride. What a bunch of ticks. Well at least since he doesn't have his desert compound, he can now hire himself mercenaries to support his delusions. At least someone will make money off his without having to put out.
The new bro-in-law is the one posting now on FF (see above). He just became a member.
Well said.
Yeah, just look at Arts picture and tell me that young beautiful girl wants to spend the next 30 years with him.
Art doesn't have 30 years left, and she will get the money.
She be very smart girl, I theenk, very long time.
Fly on the Wall, You never know. I assume my mother inlaw is such a Bee-itch that she is immortal. People who suck the life out of those around them can live a long time. Hopefully, Ramona is still practicing witchcraft and revenge from the afterlife and is about to bring home to momma! I will cheer if that chick gets all his dough and she survives mentally having to have sex with him.
YETI, are you there? You seem to know what's going on. Why was the "Art Bell Remarries" Workbench site closed for comments and where have you all gone?
TAM | 2006-04-25 11:31 PM | link
Because of too many comments. All you neanderthals who are still using 56K modems were complaining about impossible download times.
Rogers has no desire to be a censor on these forums.
George Noory declared another alien plot, and we have all been abducted by extraterrestrials. Personally, I don't think we need extra terrestrials ... one is enough.
The new bro-in-law is the one posting now on FF

well that tells you what they think of women over there. Art isn't just buying her but the whole family. The girl is just like having a good milk cow.
People who suck the life out of those around them can live a long time.
In this case, I don't think Art is doing the sucking.
Besides, we all know there are ways to speed up the process ... now, where's my inhaler.
"The new bro-in-law is the one posting now on FF (see above). He just became a member.

Yeti, you bad, bad cat ;-), how can you read that Pathetic, I mean Fantastic Forum? Those people there sound really brainwashed.
Wasn't it great to hear Art on C2C tonight?
big fan-did it give you a woody?
No, but I seem to be developing a rash!
Hopefully, it is something penicillin can still help you with.
Art ... where's my inhaler?
They are all are Art Bell ass kissers on Fantastic Forum! The people on that forum are so gay! It is hard to believe that moron ass-kissers like that actually exist. And their leader, their top nerd, Art Bell ass kisser supreme, none-other-than a guy that goes by the self-determined name of "Captain Spike Mike" because of how they role play with the forum's little crappy pirate ship concept.
And Captain Spike Mike, if by any chance you happen to read this, you are not as ugly as Art Bell, but you are as ugly as a frog that looks like Art Bell, and for that we give you the plank!
(insert faggy shark picture here)
But here's the good news, even after Art Bell himself posted that script he calls an explanation, only 25 FF Losers as of yet have posted to reassure or worship him (I'm not sure which!)
Opps, I'm sorry, I left it in Pahrump. Here, have another cigarette!
Fantastic Forum Sucks--I hate the express "so gay" but you are right about them being ass kissing idiots. My favorite is where good ole Carl comes on board the starship pervert and everyone kiss his ass as well. It's like an episode of Roseanne only more white trash.
"I hate the express "so gay""
Yeah I do too, when it is an expression, but in this case I really meant it.
If they were gay, they wouldn't give Art the time of day. Gay people don't do double wides. They are more sniveling cult members. Michael Jackson and Charlie Manson have them, so you have to expect anyone with fame will have someone so enamored they give up their will.
I expect most of them look just like his partner in crime, I mean marriage...
Hey, guys, why don't you just drop that "gay" issue, please!
I second that motion. Being gay has nothing to do with this and it is just a way for someone to use throw their bigotry into the pot. This is about a heterosexual old geezer who is preying on a young woman and the syncophants who are kissing his ass are obviously not pushing the imaginary gay agenda. Psst...Art is not courting young boys, so the gay issue is a problem of your own...
There is no such thing as a gay issue. Being gay is simply a sexual preference and should have no "special" privileges attached thereto.
I should know, I am married to a gay man.
LOL ... I don't see anyone on those sites who hasn't passed 30 quite a few years ago.

My apologies. I didn't mean there was a gay issue, I meant this guy had a issue with gays. I'm too tired though to get into a word play thing though, so if you are going to get riled at people defending you against the troll, I just don't have the energy to apologize again.
Well, I didn't really see anything that needed to be apologized for in the first place.
Art is Jewish, you are all guilty of anti-Semitism!
Art is not Jewish.
The artistic impulse was born long before Jews ever came into existence.
Art is ubiquitous and culturally diverse.
Wait! I remember the night Art was on the air for the first time after Ramona died. I hope someone else here will remember this too.
Anyways. He was rambling on and on about how she died and he'd regress into these musings about how much he misses her and how she was his soulmate and he said something that even then I thought was very odd and very, very off...
He said how she's his soulmate no matter WHO HE IS WITH IN THE FUTURE!
PLEASE someone back me up on this. It was so freaking weird to hear him say that. I mean who says that in the middle of grief and loss???
Such an inappropriate thing to say and in light of recent shocking events it's creeping me out and quite a bit.
The past is the past.
We need to move on and help make this new adventure a real success in Art's life!!!
Art will be on c2c tonight. Early in the show.
Yes,Listener, I heard him say that. I got the impression he already had someone lined up.
Yeah lets not get into a argument on the Gay issue. Some gay guys give the rest a bad rap because they do wrong things like Art by courting YOUNG boys (a girl in Arts case)most of us are upstanding members of society and you could not even tell we were Gay unless we told you. ANWAYS..On with the show..Art bell is a dirty perv ..lol
Did anyone notice on the C2C website that Art's webcam no longer has a link on the front page? Wonder if Clear Channel made them take some stuff off the website.
Just looked at "fantasticforum.com." PUKE.
If you're not already diabetic, avoid that site.
Oooppss. Noory has the Children International link back up on the C2C website. Seems like with everything going on with Art marrying a child-looking bride from a third world country that they shouldn't have that on there. Wonder if Children International know what's happening?
I heard that they are discussing doing a movie about this whole fiasco. The Olsen Twins have been picked to play Ariyn and Sharon. And Andy Rooney will be playing Art Bell.
hoodia luv--yeah, I am disgusted that they haven't taken down CI's link. I hope no children get hurt or a good organization in the process of C2C ardent support of a child molestor.
Right on, Visitor, about keeping your ears open to children & spouses with congestion from colds or asthma. (Same goes for sleep apnea, which can kill in seconds.) Basically, if you love someone who has a breathing problem, you make damn sure you can always hear them at night.

Unless you have proof that Airyn is under 18, you have no case. CSI ... that's a laugh ... no way in hell you would qualify.
By the way, there's a rumor going around that you DO animals. Is that true?
If you can't disprove it, then YOU are guilty!
Get out of your bed, get off the laptop ... get a life.
Same goes for sleep apnea, which can kill in seconds.
LOL ... sleep apnea can't kill you in seconds, moron.
I can hold my breath for 3 minutes and I'm not dead yet.
God, you people are S-T-U-P-I-D !!!!!
Let me inform you of something ... the proper use of the brain is TO THINK !
Some of you people should try it sometime !!!
When the truth comes out, and it is proven that Art had absolutely no negative hand in Ramona's tragic death ... many of you will be very ashamed of yourselves.
Nah, actually not, I expect that most of you here have no capacity for REAL human emotion, thought, or logic (that's already been proven) ... you simply parrot the garbage that you watch on TV all day, all night, all afternoon.
S-T-U-P-I-D !
Oh well, it's you again, big fan? Why don't you go away and preach somewhere else....you just bore me to death!
Right. I bore you so much that you have to respond.
LOL, like I've said before ...
S-T-U-P-I-D !!!!!
Holding your breath voluntarily and not breathing due to sleep apnea are two completely different things.
By the way, we're all very proud that you've learned how to spell your own name so well, in capital letters, with a hyphen between each letter and all those exclamation points. Good for you!
Same goes for sleep apnea, which can kill in seconds.
LOL ... sleep apnea can't kill you in seconds, moron.

Yes, sleep apnea kills. My brother died 2 years ago of sleep apnea. He was in perfect heath. He worked 2 jobs though and he must have fallen into a deep sleep and couldn't wake himself up. So, before you pronounce your fucking idiotic medical opinions, make sure you know what you are talking about.
Someone could die listening to an idiot like you. Had my brother not taken a nap without a pillow or he had had someone there to wake him up when he stopped breathing, he'd be alive today. If you have sleep apnea, go to your doctor and find out what you can do to ensure your safety. If it is bad enough, they can give you a device that wakes you up if you stop breathing. If you notice a loved one stops breathing, gasps, etc. in their sleep, have them see their doctor.
P.S. I highly doubt you can hold your breath for 3 minutes, but you can lose conciousness in much less times, so the person who wrote seconds is correct. I'm sure he didn't mean 3 seconds, but you are so high on your cult love for a pervert that you are making stuff up now.
My comments relate to the fact that you said sleep apnea can kill you in "seconds."
It can't. You are still stupid.
I know all about sleep apnea ... several members of my family have it.
Now go back to trying to convict Art Bell of being a child molester and pervert when it has been proven in Phillipine registry documents that she is at minimum, 18.
big fan you are the stupist person on the board.

LOL. Oh, my God, unf*ckingbelievable !!!
Thank you for proving my case.
And I do apologize for calling many of you stupid ... obviously, it should have been s-t-u-p-e-d.
LOL
I leave now, forever.
I can't take it any more ... I am laughing myself to death.
Goodbye losers ... or do I mean loosers ... LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL!

You are fucking wrong. It can. I aspirated on a cold pop in college and my esophogus spasmed and cut off my breathing. I felt a pain in my chest and had enough time to say "ouch" and the that is the last thing I remember. So, I lost conciousness almost immediately after my breathing was blocked. When you are sleeping, you are already in a semi-concious state. It can take less then a minute for a person to be past the point of where they can wake themselves up and save themselves. You don't know what you are talking about idiot.
Also, every heard of someone who has died from a bee sting or peanut allergy. They can stop breathing and lose conciousness immediately. You are just a fucking idiot who thinks he knows what he is talking about, but doesn't.
big fan-also, I hope for their sake they only have a mild case of sleep apnea. My brother didn't. Not everyone dies of sleep apnea. It has varying degrees. I'm so glad your relatives are lucky enough to be able to live with it, but to those of us who have lost someone we love to it, don't act like you know something that you don't. Because if you knew anything about sleep apnea, you would know it can kill you quickly/
Sleep apnea kills at night, study says
By Reuters | March 24, 2005
Patients with sleep apnea are more likely to die from heart attacks at night, while sleeping, than in the day, which is the time when everyone else is most vulnerable, US researchers reported yesterday.
Most heart attacks take place between dawn and noon in the United States but sleep apnea -- marked by a tendency to snore, stop breathing and then startle awake -- changes this pattern, the researchers found.
What is still not clear is how much sleep apnea raises the risk of premature death overall, the researchers wrote in this week's issue of the New England Journal of Medicine.
''Our study cannot address the question of whether obstructive sleep apnea increases the overall risk of sudden death from cardiac causes," Dr. Virend Somers of the Mayo Clinic College of Medicine in Rochester, Minn., and colleagues wrote.
As many as one in four Americans suffers from some degree of apnea, where the throat repeatedly closes during sleep, causing breathing to stop for 10 to 30 seconds and oxygen levels to fall dramatically.
The condition, more common in men and the obese, causes stress on the heart and makes people tired during the day.
The study of 112 Minnesota residents with sleep apnea who died suddenly from cardiac causes found they were far more likely to die between midnight and 6 a.m.
Myth: Snoring is an annoying problem, but it isn't harmful to your health.
That's what Ann Pickett used to think, until she lost her husband, Curtis, 67. He died of complications from sleep apnea, a condition in which sufferers stop breathing numerous times during the night, sometimes for as long as two minutes. Snoring is the most common symptom of sleep apnea.
"Every time you stop breathing, it reduces blood-oxygen levels and strains your cardiovascular system," says Philadelphia sleep specialist Rochelle Goldberg, M.D., president of the American Sleep Apnea Association. "Not getting oxygen can trigger an arrhythmia [dangerous irregular heartbeat], particularly in people who already have heart problems."
When you can't breathe, your body tends to emit stress hormones such as adrenaline, a potent constrictor of blood vessels. That means sleep apnea also kills by raising blood pressure and increasing stroke and heart attack risk.
"Curtis snored frequently and was a restless sleeper, but we'd never heard of sleep apnea," says Ann, 59, a secretary in Dallas, Georgia. "By the time it was diagnosed, his case was so far advanced that it had brought on serious heart and lung problems." Though only somewhat overweight, Curtis developed very high blood pressure and congestive heart failure, which contributed to his death in 2002.
Since Curtis was the one with health problems, it was a bit of a shock when he one day said to Ann, "You don't seem to be sleeping much better than I used to. Maybe you should get checked for sleep apnea."
Diagnosing apnea often requires a night in a sleep lab, hooked up to instruments that measure airflow, breathing efforts, heartbeat, sleep patterns and oxygen levels in blood.
To humor her husband, Ann spent the night at the Wellstar Sleep Disorder Center at Wendy Hill in Atlanta, where she, too, was diagnosed with sleep apnea. Doctors prescribed CPAP (continuous positive airway pressure), considered the most effective treatment for apnea. The patient wears a mask over the nose, which is attached to a tabletop blower that delivers pressurized air to the nose or mouth, keeping airways open.
"My husband probably saved my life," says Ann. "My blood pressure had been alarmingly erratic. When I started sleeping with the CPAP unit, it went down and stayed down. The apnea was caught before it weakened my heart. I probably added twenty years to my life."
Sleep apnea can kill in seconds. It can give you a stroke, a heartattack or you can stop breathing long enough that your organs begin to shut down.
What happened to my posts? Some of the ones I read yesterday were from an imposter.
Never mind. I found them.
Last night on Coast to Coast George Noory had Richard C. Hoaxland on the celebrate his birthday. Art Bell made a surprise appearance, didn't talk anything about his marriage. Whitley Strieber was also on> Neither Noory. Strieber, or Hoaxland gave Bell their congradulations on marrying his mail order child bride. Their silence was deafening.
Well, good for that at least. I'm still so disgusted, I haven't been able to listen to George or Whitley's show at this point, but I feel sorry for them for being put in such a hideous position by Art. I'm a little concerned with the letters Whitley has sent to people discussed on other thread, but I understand if you have been friends this long with someone, this has to be a nightmare for him. If I find out however, that any of them think this really is a great thing, then they have lost all credibility with me.
Big Fan - If you don't like our discussion on this board - get off. Go type your love notes to Art Bell on HIS message board. Thanks.
Big Fan - I forgot to ask you. "Hi, Art. How's the little woman?"
p.s. Have a safe trip. They usally say "don't drink the water." But for you, drink it. Got my eye on that Trans Am of yours. How many miles on her? Anyone die in it lately?
Jack Bauer... The JACK BAUER... LOLLLLL love your show.
Now kill off your girlfriend, I cannot take her. PLEASE for goodness sake do an ART BELL on her and then call her your soul mate.
Big Fan writes "you simply parrot the garbage that you watch on TV all day, all night, all afternoon."
WE DO NOT!!!!
Now my final thought on this is, Coming up next... American Idol, right after local headlines.
PS
if Art's on tonight... I hope Art give us the usually warning when he is about to air something spooky.
This warning will be for every young girl who wants a better life...
Dirty OLD BELL alert: turn off your radio. Moms and dads, please lock away your kids.
PS PS I'm not saying he killed his wife. I'm saying he NOT sorry she's gone.
Art Bell is hurrying to the KNYE radio station... 100 mph in his Trans AM... Hits a 10 pound lizard crossing the highway... What kind of sound does it make?
"Pahrump Pahrump"
Thanks kids I'll be here all week. Please tip your waitresses. What a country!
Great to see all the supporting data on sleep apnea. It's a well-informed group we have here!
BUT, of course, Big Fan claims that just about everyone in his family has sleep apnea, so what the hell do I know??? Why, he held his breath for THREE WHOLE MINUTES--clearly causing himself SEVERE brain damage in the process--just to prove me wrong.
Kind of pitiful, isn't it....
Bell's Hell, I think we should encourage him to take up free diving he's so good at holding his breath. Well, I guess the oxygen deprivation explains his not seeing anything wrong with a liverspotted old lech losing his wife, falling in love instantaneously afterwards and marrying a childbride. It's finally making sense now...his supporters suffer from oxygen deprivation to the brain.
Totally sweet...
Yes...free diving! He should free dive into a hot Jacuzzi with his mouth wide open! Snap his esophagus shut and turn him into a true believer.
Neither Noory. Strieber, or Hoaxland gave Bell their congradulations on marrying his mail order child bride. Their silence was deafening.
What show were you listening to?
Art and George had quite an extensive conversation about it before the others came on.
This warning will be for every young girl who wants a better life...

Warning? They should all hope they are so lucky as to find their own Art Bell.
Uh oh...Looks like Art is getting way sick with some sort of face cancer, and I think his new bro has it too. Maybe they need new wife transplants!!
Uh oh...looks like the KFC was all out of gizzards and beaks tonight...someone is a little ornery!!!

Signing as?
Shocked & Dismayed-the word is narcissist. It's all about Art. Art, Art,Art. Not his wifes memory, not his son, not his cats, not the welfare of a young desperate woman, not his friends who are making excuses for inexcusable behavior, not the fans so attached to him that they are going against their own values to keep in his good graces. It's all about Art getting his needs met and his only. If everyone else gets hurt and he is happy that is all that matters to Art.
A couple of women in our family have died unnecessarily. If they were taken to the hospital in time, they would not have died. They were not murdered. Their husbands just never considered anyone but themselves. Is this depraved indifference? The rest of the family thought so.
People who lose a spouse walk around in a daze. Not Art. A few days after the love of his life dies he's emailing another woman and later vidoeconferencing her. Give me a break. This guy isn't human.
Q: "Signing as?
visitor | 2006-04-26 10:15 PM |"
A: Not signing as, but sounding like a Cro-Magnon.... :-)
hey! take that picture of Art and me off this site, Jam bo ree. You're hurting my wife's feelings.
Right. Too many details. His son must be about 25 by now. No mention. Also, I could never leave my animals. It doesn't make sense.
He has an amazing ability to cut off relationships like a light switch. He tells his listeners year after year his love and devotion to his cats and then Ramona dies and he not only has an instabride and so over her, he's not into his cats so much anymore. I guess we should be lucky he didn't think to bury his cats alive in a tomb with his wife in some C2C Egyptian reenactment.
I agree with the comments about narcissism. Shocked and dismayed is right - when someone dies, there is a eulogy about THEM, what made them special, some of their nice traits, humourous stories about them. Art talked on and on about how lonely he was going to be.
The same thing happened with Airyn. All we found out about her was that she was young and beautiful ("Look at the picture! Look at the picture!). He said that she was a nice girl. He said she was a college grad who was going to teach, but that he has "retired" her from that. Most of the time, he talked about himself and about how he thought she was his soulmate. He says that she loves him and that she is the most beautiful girl he has ever seen.
After all that he put Ramona through with the lawsuit and the troubles his son had, he couldn't be bothered finding out that her brother died of asthma. He was tired, so he went to bed. Well, so what if he was tired? Suck it up and help her. Take her to a doctor or a hospital.
It seems that only Art is important in Art's world. That is a sign of narcissism. His comments about how anyone he got involved with would have to recognize that Ramona was his soulmate were quickly swept away as, guess what, Airyn is the soulmate now.
Some narcissists find it easy to replace one person with another because that other person is only important for how they reflect him - as a source of narcissistic supply. When all a person has been is a function, it is relatively easy to replace them, because they weren't valued as real people.
According to Sam Vaknin who writes about narcissism in Malignant Self Love, a narcissist does not want to be bothered with the problems, emotions or needs of another person.
All children are narcissistic - most of them grow out of it. They often come across as intelligent, charismatic and fun. They believe that they can charm anyone and, initially, they often do.
Global advanced trait descriptions of the pathology include: religious, mystical, artistic, anti-authority,work ethic, adventurousness, dependence, need to dominate, sexuality, physical security, extraverted, conflict seeking, etc. etc. etc.
Does any of this sound familiar?
I dated a narcissist back in the days when I liked bad boys better than nice guys. When he was talking about himself, he was funny and erudite. Start talking about anything to do with me or someone else, and his eyes would glaze over. Start talking about him again, and his whole body would start almost wagging with joy.
I left that relationship tired by the constant work and the intensity. It cured me of wanting to play social worker to a bad boy. I can see a lot of similarities in both the comments about Ramona's death and the recent comments about his marriage to Airyn.
Does anyone know how the investigation is going, or if there even is one?
Laurie - you make some great points.
I heard that Clear Channel was very fussy about keeping their image clean. Don't they make their employees sign a morality clause? I had heard this somewhere. Does anyone in their corp office question an employee whose wife dies, he suddenly remarries, and then informs them that he wants to broadcast his show from basically a third world country.
I read a long time ago that electricity is a big issue in the Phillipines. How can you broadcast a radio program with spotty electricity? The whole thing is way out there.
I hadn't heard about Art not wanting his new child bride to work. If she really did go to college, and from what Art told on C2C that her family were farmers, it would be a big accomplishment for her to go to college and become a teacher. He's so self-centerd that he isn't going to let her teach? Oh, it gets grosser by the minute. That poor girl is that old guy's slave basically. Can you imagine being so desperate to give your self away to any creep that comes a long. Sickening & sad. Art should be very ashamed.
Just heard the sad news. (Change of work shift prevented me from following the show for the past 6 months)
God Bless you Art.
You are in my prayers...
Sad news? No, that was last week. This week is happy news.
Next week it'll be something else.
Hey, on C2C's website they put up a message from Art about "his situation." Says he isn't selling his house or radio station. Will be off the air for several weeks while he moves to Phillipines. www.coasttocoastam.com
I wonder if anyone will be interested in listening to him when he comes back on the air. I haven't listened to C2C since he announced marrying the new love of his life. I don't think I could ever believe a word that Art says after all this. Seems so phoney now.
I'm sure that "aliens" are behind the whole situation somehow.
According to George, they are pretty much responsible for everything these days.
About 1 in 20 shows (or less) really interest me any more.
I hope their ratings go in the toilet.
This says that monkey bites aren't uncommon in PI. Monkey bites? Yikes! Mentions maleria, other diseases, sea snakes, sharks, communist & muslim rebels, and terrible crime. Sounds like a h*** hole. Can anyone say "karma."

"He's so self-centerd that he isn't going to let her teach? Oh, it gets grosser by the minute. That poor girl is that old guy's slave basically. Can you imagine being so desperate to give your self away to any creep that comes a long."
Is it just me or did I see sadness in that girls eyes even though she is smiling in one of the close up pictures of her face that Art Bell had up the night he went insane publically showing his new trophy? It looks alot like the kind of sad eyes that girls that get into pornography have.
Comparing the plant, Bertha's death to Ramona. It was like an analogy made up for a child. They really don't think much of their audience.
For the record: I DID NOT WRITE ANY POSTS HERE AFTER 8:16 PM LAST NIGHT.
I see that Jam Bo Ree had the same problem.
Guess somebody is having trouble thinking up their own screen names. Idiots.

I thought exactly the same thing. She looks like one of the chicks on the reality shows, where they think a gorgeous hunk is coming out to date them, only to discover it is a hideous geek. And the T-shirt "naughty and nice"? Looks like something a stripper would be wearing, and certainly not something I'd be posting on my website, calling attention to the already obvious T&A motive for Art. Low, low class.
Maybe the whole thing is a sham for PR. Art always has said he loves the far east and Asia/Asian women. Maybe he moved there just to get away from painful memories of Ramona, and this child bride thing is just a hoax to build ratings?
Exactly...where would Art be today without massive, nauseating, controversial publicity? Every major story connected with this sleazeball has a disgusting component to it. After his famous pronunciamento against Filipinos, perhaps they'll welcome him to Manila by heaving his body out the window of his nineteenth-floor condominium.
"Off I go, those dice are rolling," Art signed off.
I listened to that self-serving palaver this morning. George spent most of the half hour kissing up - as well he should. He might be without his dream job if he doesn't.
Again, it was all about Art. But that seems to be how he operates. Don't hurry setting things up in the Phillipines, Art. Even the sound of your gloating voice makes me ill, and you have lost me as a weekend listener.
Art you are PATHETIC!
Does anyone out there have a audio clip of Art on Noory's show on 4/25/06? Can you put a link up on this board?
Thanks
Dear Art,
The Monkees are waiting for you. Those chimps stole your mustache on the last visit to PI and may want more.

Do you remember the movie "ET"?
I think he (Spike Mike) looks like ET when they dressed him for a Halloween party.
"spike mike" was feted on air about a month ago on air. The fantastic forum is the most kiss-ass of the Art Bell websites, so much so that spikemike has been deleting posts that are negative following a message from Art himself. Another member of FF said that he and some online buddies felt bad about Art after losing Ramona. So they chipped in and sent him a condolence/best wishes message and a hot pizza. The delivery guy got to Art Bells' and Art opened the door and told the pizza guy to f-off because he was busy-probably busy jerking off on the internet to his newfound love. So much for the grieving husband.
Some people are never what they seem.
Weird, just plain weird. It's not over with yet, Just wait.
I used to work with a Filipino guy who still spoke the language. I haven't seen him in a while, but I bet he has the local low down on the marriage and Art's possible reception.
Does anyone here have any info from the Philippines?
My money is on "Air-in" turning out to be a bar girl. Those family photos of the shack doesn't speak of all night video conferences- let alone a computer. But I bet the bars have them.
I listened to that self-serving palaver this morning. George spent most of the half hour kissing up - as well he should. He might be without his dream job if he doesn't.
I have often wondered, and still do, why Art picked someone like George to take over the show.
He seems to be a "nice guy," but he certainly gives no hard scrutiny to guests ... on second thought, Art doesn't either.
Let's see ... when Art is on, it's always about Art. Even his approbations to not express sympathy about Ramona were a bid for attention, on his part.
And when George is on ... aliens are behind every corner. Even when his guests become noticeably uncomfortable with that and try to steer their topics back towards a certain level of rationality.
OK, guess I answered my own question.
If they were journalists ... I wonder which would make the best Larry King.
Maybe it would be a tie.
I went into a club the other night and there was Art Bell playing Saxophone on stage and taking requests. I said, Hey Art can you play the Theme from the Pink Panther? Sure he shouted. Pahrump.. Pahrump... Pahrump Pahrump Pahrump Pahrump Pahrumppppp... Pahrump.....
Yea Babe, I was in that same joint and Art was playing, "Killing Me Softly" on the spoons. Unbelievable! OOH!
www.soundboards.com
The Filipino girls/women are not stupid, guys!
I worked with them (here in Los Angeles) for eight years and got to know them as the gossipers and backstabbers. And constantly calculating. I mean constantly.
So, I don't believe that "Air-in" is innocent, or her eyes are sad (as somebody wrote in one comment a few days ago), or she's soooo special (as Art is saying allover and allover again like a parrot). I see in her eyes a digital calculator, that's all.
Notice how there was more of a tribute to and more sympathy for the dying plant named "Bertha" than for poor Ramona's dying memory.
George Noory sounds like a big phoney now with a bunch of ass kissers for callers.
Noory, Too hell with "Bertha". You ought to be ashamed of yourself. How shallow can you get!
A copy of Art and Airyn's video feed would be worth $$$. Maybe someone in the Philippines has a copy. Art himself said they got VERY friendly.

I agree. Her eyes give it away. The look is sad and resigned. I feel horrible for that poor girl.
Don't cats and dogs coming into foreign countries have to be quarantined for 30-60 days? Those poor cats will be so upset losing Ramona and then being put in cages on the plane and then quarantined in some strange place maybe in poor living conditions.
How did Art arrange all the documents to marry, get the vaccines to go to a developing country, find a condo, meet all the requirements, and make arrangements for the cats once he gets to the Phillipines all in such a short period of time. I have known people who were going to Asia or Africa for several months and it took them 3 months just to get all the vaccines, like the hepatitis vaccine, that they needed. Curious.
Have you seen the picture of the Big Brother of FF....he calls himself

Don't feel too horrible for Airyn. Remember, Art's going to be living on HER turf now. He can't kill her there, because he'll be overrun with hundreds of her relatives screaming for blood. Even if he decides to dump her, she will more than likely receive a nice piece of change for her troubles.
Or maybe she'll just outlive him. There must be several interesting, subtle ways to dispose of the old fart in the Phillipines.

__________ _______________ _______
Yea, I was told that in the Phillipines many of the middle class and up live in condos or subdivisions that have gates and armed guards. If Art is moving into a 19 story building or bigger the guards are for the entire condo building not just him. What an ego. Art's used to defending himself, but if you are found with a gun in the Phillipines you can get life in prison and I'm sure they could care less who you are.
You can read on many websites about the Phillipines, like some posted on this board, that there is a lot of criminal activity going on in around the Manila area and the surrounding communites, which is where Art said he was moving to. On one of his recent shows he tried to poo poo that when a lady called in to say that she had lived in the Phillipines and it could be dangerous. Art said he had lived in Asia before. That may be true but there is a big difference between places like Hong Kong and Singapore, and Manila. There are also a lot of gangs in and around the area. Criminals pray on Americans, Australians and Europeans. I don't think they'll care less that he's talk show host. That means nothing to those people there except for how much money they can beg from you. Art will be nickled and dimed not only from his new relatives, but everywhere and everytime he goes out. That would get old quick.
The U.S. Embassy warns you not to drive there because they basically have no rules of the road even in a big city like Manila, and the cab drivers are known to rob Americans and tourists. Most Americans that have to go to Manila to work hire a car and driver.
Seems like Art would be given up a lot of personal freedom that he's used to.
I give Art 3 months and he'll be back at his place in NV. Though he can't get a divorce, they do grant annulments if you can prove that you were under some kind of physiological strain when you married. Art could say that his wife had died and he was lonely and didn't know what he was doing.
He just likes youth. Remember when he used to drool over pics of crystal gail and Ramona taken when they were young? This new one won't have time to get old and unattractive.
He could be kidnapped and held for ransom in a place like that.
"Criminals pray on Americans, Australians and Europeans"
Only the religious criminals pray on their victims.
But then it is a Catholic cuntry ...
except for the priests ... they seem to like other holes.
Couldn't you just forgive them all, only if they were doing the right gender?
That would be Art? Right?
As far as I know, Art is definitely doing the right gender ... Mmmmm, I love that Asian spice!
Those little peaches ain't bad either! I'd like to shake her tree!
ha ha ha Thanks for catching that. I was typing away so fast I typed "PRAY" instead of "PREY." ha ha ha You're right though, they will be doing a lot of praying. Art will see what it's like to belong to a strict Catholic family.
You're right. I'm going to get a life.
Thank you.
George Noory had Art Bell on Coast to Coast last night. Noory kissed Bell's ass big time however, stopped short of congradulating him on his marriage to his child bride. Maybe Noory would rather kiss Bell's ass and fall short of congradulating him than to congradualte him, not say anything else. Bell said that 97 percent of the responses to his marriage were positive. Judging from this thread the opposite seems to be true. It seems rather incredible that Clear Channel agreed to have Bell broadcast his show from the Phillipines with all the hassles involved with doing such a project for only one night a week.They're probably hoping to cash in the the controversy. Somebody suggested that Bell may have something on the Clear Channel CEO.
I see Art and his fat friend are visiting and trying to get thread shut down. What about the media silence on this? That is almost a curious as the worlds fastest courtship. Either Art Bell is so irrelevant now that no one gives a fuck or he is more powerful then we know. The story is compelling and he is a famous talk radio host even if he in the shadows these days. How is it Robert Blakes story gets covered and Art Bell who took up dating after his wifes death faster then Scott Peterson on crack doesn't even make the news once. A famous talk radio guy loses his wife and remarries a child-bride in 3 months and no one thinks this is a story? I have long wondered if Art Bell and Ed Dames aren't working on behalf of the govt to discredit ufology. They certainly do nothing to make it look like a credible subject with their wacko end of the world fungus stories and kill shot B.S. There is a history in ufology of govt agents infiltrating and discrediting with misinformation organizations that studies ufos or individuals in the field. Any thoughts on that?
Also, isn't it Clear Channel that was always over Howard Sterns ass. Arts marriage makes Stern look like a freaking upright presbyterian.
Noory probably feels congratulations are not in order. However, as heir apparent to C2C, of course he's going to kiss Bell's ass.
Who knows...the marriage may well be a publicity stunt cooked up by Bell and Clear Channel--kind of like trying to convince people that "Bertha Revived" is the same plant as "Dead Bertha."
I agree, the media silence is interesting, considering that when I try to find an AM station NOT broadcasting C2C, it's darned near impossible.
So, with that in mind, today I searched LexisNexis using the search term "Art Bell" over the last six months. It came up with next to nothing under any category.
Nobody, especially Art Bell, is so powerful that he can squelch any and all publicity about himself. It's my considered opinion that mainstream media outlets just don't give a damn about him: not his show, nor his marriage, nor anything else associated with him.
I don't think mainstream media ever cared about him; they think he is a crackpot.
After what happened to Bill after Monica, Clear Channel should have seen this reaction to Art's wedding announcement and advised him to wait (maybe they did). The C2C audience accepted Ramona's death until the wedding announcement made her death look suspicious.
The only part of the Noory/Bell interview that sounded sincere was George thanking Art for the opportunity to host C2C. Everything else was staged including "open lines". No love lost between those two.
As for the media silence concerning AB, ignoring is the media's form of sensorship. IMO
HH, you are proving their point. Let it go. Everyone is entitled to their opinion. This may turn out to be your 10-minutes of fame. If you have nothing to hide and nothing to prove, then "sticks and stones".
I think my 60-year old husband knew what he was talking about when he said we look at Airyn and see our daughters. We ask ourselves, "Is that what we would want for them?" It brings tears to my eyes.
After listening to Art Bell for 14 years I threw in the towel after hearing his latest "Me, Me, Me" speech on air when he returned from his 'vacation.' Since around 1997 it has been stressful trying to ignore his numerous immature decisions. One was how he has always prided himself on vengeance. Hard to believe an adult would even talk about it on air, let alone actually feel that way. But none ever came close to topping his latest self-serving escapades since Ramona's death.
Art's abrupt detachment from his and Ramona's alleged beloved kitties is terribly sad. Poor little guys are going through their own form of grief during this time and could use an extra dose of love. Instead they're given away to strangers, and individually when they're use to living together. Is Comet getting the special attention he needs since he's so scared having once been a feral cat? And little Dusty is the little guy that Ramona and Art just adopted in Pahrump last summer. How lonely they'll be in their new places without each other. Can't even imagine how much they must miss Ramona. All this tells more about Art than anything he's ever said. I feel so sorry for Shadow having to live in Arkansas now and I certainly noticed that Carl hasn't bothered to mention anything at all about him or how he's doing. Carl seems to be swept up in a dream of his own since he's become known as Art Bell's friend. Good grief, are he and Art both delusional?
To the posters who have already said that the little girl Art married looks so sad in their wedding pictures, I absolutely agree. Her eyes caught my attention the moment I first saw those pictures. What a terribly sad life ahead for her. Money or no money she still has to have sex with someone old enough to be her grandfather. And no amount of black hair dye can change that fact. If Art wants to try to look younger he needs to do something about that flabby body.
Someone said Art either posted, or maybe said it on air, that 97% of the posts regarding his marriage were positive. If he believes that then he really is delusional. He wouldn't dare post anywhere other than the FF. The FF is notorious for having Art's groupies (as opposed to fans or devoted listeners). These people have been disappointing in the way they've gone into major denial over the numerous moral atrocities Art has committed in such a short time. At least I'm giving them the benefit of the doubt in assuming that they have better morals than what they're portraying in their sucking up posts. (I can imagine the pit bull of FF, old shirleypal, typing like crazy right now.) No doubt Clear Channel will see the numbers of listeners who have been turned off by these latest events reflected in the ratings soon, if not already.
I pegged Art as a narcissist many years ago and felt for Ramona having to put up with his extreme self-centeredness. But one of the things I found the strangest of all, if not shocking, was the night, last January, when he returned to tell us about what had happened and actually began by saying that Ramona had an out-of-control temper and repeated it two or three times before finally dropping it. I wondered then what was his point? Why in the world would he have a need to devulge such a thing? And why in the world would someone who had always raved about his alleged soulmate reveal such a thing to a radio audience, especially at that particular point in time? Little did I realize then that that wasn't the only thing that Art would do to show disrespect for Ramona. And all in such a terribly short time. I've been surprised that no one else has brought it up. Would like to hear if others thought those statements were out of place too?

yeah, it reminds me that I am going to have to protect my daughter a long time after she is an adult. It also reminds me to help make sure that my kids have good sturdy financial legs to stand on when they are on their own, so that they never feel so desperate that feel like that have to do something that destroys their whole lives. This girl deserves to have a young man she is in love with to spend the rest of her life with. Bell could live to his hundreds and her youth could be completely spent by the time she escapes this nightmare.

AT this point, I more feel sorry for the cats that are going to be stuck in a cage in Manilla. Their lives may just be saved at this juncture in their lives by being away from him.

I had completely forgotten about that! He did say that didn't he? I can't stomach listening to that night again, so if some has a transcript of exactly what he said, I'd love to see it posted somewhere. I wonder if she didn't catch his sleazy ass communicating with this girl before her death...
____
Would like to hear if others thought those statements were out of place too?

Definately another thing from the interview that should have raised red flags. I can't believe I forgot about that. I think I was so weirded out by other stuff he said like how he claimed not to know that his brother inlaw died of asthama and not mentioning his son and telling all the gory details. I wonder what else I missed. I guess I should listen to that night again...
I cannot believe the crying and gnashing of teeth as well as the insults and denigration over Art remarrying. All I can say is "life goes on".

Too bad life will go on like a deathrow prison sentence for one young woman.
NEVER cease to amaze me-sorry, I can't understand you. I don't speak Jaba the Huts language.
Sorry, make that lifesentences for 2 young women. I forgot old Jaba till he popped online again.
"I see Art and his fat friend are visiting and trying to get thread shut down. What about the media silence on this?"
I know it's hard to believe if you are a C2C listener ... but most people in this country have no idea who Art Bell is, let alone caring about what happens in his personal or professional life.
Everyone in the country knows who old Ham-in-law is, if not directly. He is the main reason why KFC, Dunkin Donuts, and the company that makes Preparation H is still in business. We all owe him a debt of gratitude, even if we didn't know who he was until just a couple of weeks ago.
but most people in this country have no idea who Art Bell is, let alone caring about what happens in his personal or professional life.

Actually, I do know that, but he is still one of the biggest talk radio personalities in the business. Even if he covers a fringe topic...What I love is his radio staion is carried on ultraconservative stations that chased Clinton's penis around and now they have a pervert in all his glory leading away the night on Conservative talk radio. That part is just same old same old, Do as I say, not as I do conservative principals. Art Bell has made the mainstream news many times for subjects less interesting then this, so I still ask the question, why no interest in this?
Ramona was and IS a witch!
There is no such thing as white witchcraft except in the mind of gullible children or those who are attempting to dissemble.
All witchcraft is as black as the ace of spades.
There is MUCH MORE to this than meets the eye.
Yes, they are by Carl.
I did NOT write that post directly above. It was some moron posing as me.
Carl is trying to censor Art Bell Critics by shutting down this post.
NAACP?
"now they have a pervert in all his glory leading away the night on Conservative talk radio. That part is just same old same old, Do as I say, not as I do conservative principals."
You are very confused. There is no such thing as conservative talk radio, there is only radio that makes money and draws ratings.
As you may, or may not know, AirAmerica and all the other liberal talk show bullshit has been flushed right down the toilet because no one cares to listen to it.
American liberals are a funny bunch, they think they deserve something simply because they show up with their hands out.
It don't work that way, bunky.
People pay for something only if it interests them or is in their interest.
American liberals are only of interest to parasites ... parasites who steal money from others and give it to their own ilk.
"Ilk" is a good word.
I like "ilk."
"How will he "hang by the neck until dead" unless he is investigated and prosecuted first?
Question for the Visitor | 2006-04-27 09:18 PM | link"
Which came first, the chicken or the egg?
Ditto, Visitor.
Don't even bother to correct him...ol' Carl only knows two words, and NAACP sure ain't one of 'em!
Hell, I doubt he even knows what the letters stand for.
I think this will have an effect on the ratings. There have been commercials on for Mission Impossible 3, and I know a few people who have said they won't go see it because Tom Cruise is in it. They have said they won't support him since he has been acting so crazy, even though they liked him as an actor before his brains went south.
Although Art thinks that he can do whatever he wants (and he can), it is infantile on his part to think that some people won't tune out.
And Yeti, nobody thought that was you; your posts have been enjoyable, not purile.
Well said, Laurie!
"Ilk"....
I'm still giggling over that one, Not A Lib.

You mean like Halliburton, Exxon, Enron, etc....Okay, have fun all. I'm sorry, but I can't believe there is any conservative left who can say that with a straight face when the country has been finanically raped by its own for 5 years. Bell is a pervert and conservative radio station should not be supporting a pervert if it wants to push puritanical values on others. I'm not for Clinton abusing young girls and I'm not for Art Bell and neither should the people who went after Clinton if you want me to believe that that had anything to with something other then politics. Practice what you preach and dump Art Bell. Okay, at least you have convinced me that I've had enough of this conversation, so back to having a life again. If you can't see what is wrong when people who give us morality lessons on a regular basis conding a dirty old pervert then I'm done with this. Have fun with your "Ilk"
Art Bell is buds with Rush Limbaugh, FYI!!!
Art Bell and Rush Limbaugh...now, THERE'S an attractive pair! I can just picture them picking up wh...I mean, barhopping together in Manila.
I'm going to sleep, so anybody who uses my name in vain tonight will be doing just that: using it in vain. *thppppp*
> AT this point, I more feel sorry for the cats that are going to be stuck in a cage in Manilla.

You may be right about that, unfortunately. He wasn't going to take any initially, that is until he realized people were outraged over how he was so readily abandoning them.
Don't suppose there's any hope that he'll consult with their vet. At the very least he could get tranquilizers for that 15 hour flight they'll be subjected to in a cargo pit. Seriously doubt he'd think (or bother) to spring for tickets/seats in the cabin for them. That, at least, would make life a little easier...until they arrived in the Philippines for the 30 day hold in the quarantine hellhole, or however long it entails. Feel badly for all five of them, no wonder Ramona had a temper. Who wouldn't after having to live with this self-centered jerk. And an arrogant jerk at that.
Thanks Rogers for leting us hoot on your site...we like a lot of your links..and will return even after all this dies down...OR will it??? Heh,heh...hehh..ha ..hoo..and Ian, Shut Up now and then, never heard a talk show host who talks too much..i think they call it prattle...prattling..reminds me of an eighth grade girlfriend..except she had cuter hips...hi kathy..mmmm..and your sister ginny too..mmmm..
What The hey? Now cut that out..I mean it
Anybody wanna peanut?
Here are 10 items of interest revolving the art bell case.
i may have to rethink a lot of things when it comes to art.
It's sad that some poor wimp and coward has to put such things up on this site as F***** N*****. I guess they have such limited intelligence that that's the only creative thing they can say.
Let ME say that I have really enjoyed this message board for the last week or so and think all of you, with a few exceptions, are wonderful. Rogers Cadanhead ROCKS! I wish we could have a big party and celebrate Ramona's life, which is what this has been about. Where ever she is I think she appreciates the thoughts and support that people have given her on this board.
Charlies Angels-I'll join you in one last toast to Ramona. And a prayer for that poor young woman Airyn that she may survive and escape this prison sentence and for the safety and well being of Ramona's cats.
"actually began by saying that Ramona had an out-of-control temper and repeated it two or three times before finally dropping it"
Yeah I forgot about that, I thought that was really strange! Perhaps their relationship was in trouble too.
It's too bad some douche bag is ruining the opportunity to speak out about Art Bell by repeatedly flooding the board in annoying capitalized letters, STUPID MORON LICKS ART BELL'S RASHY ASS!
Hey dude, or bitch as most I assume refer to you as. Im NOT, repeat NOT Carl, and could honestly give a flying fuck about the dude. I dont know how you even THINK you know that Im this Carl guy, but I assure Im not him. Now, you can go on with your little witch hunt, its NOT GOING TO AFFECT ME ONE ITSY BITSY TINY BIT. But hey, Im having a good laugh at your expense!
Carl W Richardson, might I suggest you download and listen to Chris Rock's "Tossed Salad Man". You'll be flossing and rinsing for a few months.
Looks like our posts crossed, Cicero, but we had the same thought, anyway...
Time for somebody to post this blubbery bigot's ISP.
Oh my god you fools make me laugh. Post it. Go ahead. Hell Ill post mine along with all of yours. Ive got nothing to hide...
Excellent idea!!!
Guys and Gals, can we please not make fun or attack Carl - he is (Presumed)to be an innocent bystander in this entire ordeal. Carl is not a public figure, if we have an issue with Bell, it's an issue with Bell - not the man who supposedly introduced Airyn and Art.
I have never seen on any board no matter how angry the postings got of anyone acting like the person putting up this F***** N*****, and then other ugly comments using Yeti, Charlies Angels and Cicero names is wrong. Obviously this is some hater and loser, because what do those ugly words have to do with this website or this message board.
BUT LET ME ADD, that this is considered a type of vandalism, and the guy's IP address can link to his internet server and back to his name and home address. So every time he's getting on here we're getting more info on him.

Hey CICERO,
Thanks for addressing that JERK. Being a Young black female, I was waiting to see someone step up to the plate and call that BIG FAT PIG out.
thanks.
The word N**** mean -- stupid, ignorant person, a member of a socially disadvantaged class of persons. That racial term were used towards Blacks because we were denied any form of education and our social standards were poor.
Fast forward ahead -- So that moron using this word fits the name N**** word perfectly. stupid, ignorant person, socially disadvantaged --
Now go grease up your pickup trunk and stick your tiny penis in the pipe

Thanks My Spouse Is A Detective for your comments.

I haven't heard anything about Art Bell's marriage to his mail order child bride on the radio, TV, or print media. I thougt Matt Drudge would have had something to say, so far nothing Maybe Bell is just small potatoes. There are those that say that Coast to Coast is around to discredit the subject of UFOs. I'm not one for conspiracies however, it seems like 80 plus percent of the guests on Coast to Coast concerning UFOs are kooks. How better to discredit UFOs than to have a bunch of kooks on your show.

Just curious ... how much time did you spend there?
I agree.
The lynch mob mentality on this forum makes me puke. Too bad God fucked up and didn't drown Noah when he had the chance.
Vermin ...
Matt Drudge won't post anything concerning this scandal because he is Art Bell's FRIEND.
Just another way the media is manipulated and the press isn't free.
Who the h*** came up with the term "free press" anyway?
There's no such thing as a free press.
Media is a business like anything else in this country (including religion)..they are there to make money. Period. They are not going to print anything that possibly puts themselves in a bad light. Clear Channel is putting the squelch on anything negative said about Art Bell because he's their big money-maker namesake in the night hours. Art Bell has gone beyond radio personality and has become a "brand". Coast to Coast has 10 to 20 million listeners on any given night. Man, that market is huge! You think Clear Channel wants it to get out that Art Bell is a murdering child molestor?
Somebody posted that Art and Rush Limbaugh are buddies. I don't doubt it...there's another radio guy that makes a big deal about announcing his love and marriage to some crazy woman he met on the internet. And how long did Rush the Drug Abuser's marriage last? Oh, less than 2 years.
I bet Howard Stern is laughing his ass off right now. Talk about justice.

"You mean like Halliburton, Exxon, Enron, etc...."
Are these people? Last I heard, they were companies.
Companies, by the way, that far exceed financial donations to the Democrats than the Republicans.
Check the public record, bunky.
That drunken, murderer, liberal Senator (Mary Jo's mentor) got more donations from those companies than any other member of Congress.
By the way ... if you think I like Republicans ... don't!
Both parties are filled with liars, cheats, thieves and scum.
You can't remain in Congress more than 5 years without being one or the other.
They are all corrupt, they are all stealing your money. And money = hard work and all the time spent earning it ... that is what they are really stealing ... your life.

For those of you on dial-up that find it impossible to load the other main thread on this subject at cadenhead ( the art-bell-remarries-leaves-us thread) I uploaded it to mytempdir and you can download it from there.
Thanks for the link, Boo! I'm downloading it now.
Now I must respond to the Visitor, who said,
"After all, you have HIS personal information ..."
Well, Fatso, the last thing I ever, EVER wanted was to listen to Art Bell's personal revelations.
(I'll wait while you find a dictionary and look up "revelations.")
If Bell had kept his slimy yap shut, this thread wouldn't exist.
One thing I have to admire about George Noory: we hardly know anything about him. Thank God for small favors.
Dear drunken visitor, every year thousands of American males get snagged by downloading child porn or trying to engage children in chatrooms in sex. Where do they get it? The internet, of course. Don't be stupid.

Anger at getting caught.
SUCKER!
Anytime Jade! Dragging those slurs into this discussion just shows where this person's head is really at.
On a similr vein, I am a member of Streamlink, the C2C website. There the discussions are more reserved, but still as emotional. I suspect that one of those members might be crossing over to this freer forum and polluting the air. He often rags on new Americans and brags about guns and wasp people. The kicker is that he is another "bad back" case who went ballistic when I suggested people call the insurance industry. Here's his rant, it sounds familiar:
"cicero , you are the absolute type of bastard , bitch or son of , which ever you are , that i despise . you are the type of person who will twist EVERYTHING to a vile and different meaning just to suit yourself , no matter if there is any truth what so ever in your statement ."
Anyway a new angle I want to explore is the time it takes for an American retiree to set up the bank accounts neccesary to move to the Philippines:
www.philippinesretirement.info
Art has done things very quickly. The longer it takes to set up an account and apply to become a retiree in the Philippines, the further back it pushes his budding romance in time.
And Kudos to Yeti the Cat who first posted many of these links and got the discussion rolling on Workbench.

I spent 6-months in a Naval hospital during the VietNam war, recovering from wounds to my back, shoulder, and hip after a firefight near Khe Sanh. I am still partially paralyzed on my left side, as a result.
If I had known I was fighting for the rights of people like you (except for a few) to engage in unsubstantiated slander, character assasination, and other criminal acts ... then I am truly sorry I made the sacrifice because none of you are worth it and none of you exemplify the ideals that I thought I was fighting for.
You are pure trash, whether you live in trailers or not.
I wish I could exchange the lives of every good American man and woman who died over there for each of you.
They were worth putting myself in harm's way for ... you are not.
If I was not acquainted with so many truly good Americans, you would make me ashamed to be an American.
Fortunately, trash like you are not able to do that.

In my last genuine post, I mentioned George Noory. I didn't post anything else on this thread until this moment. And I think Cicero knows I didn't write that poison-pen stuff about him, either.
Hey--has anyone noticed that in the picture of Art and Ramona at the top of this page, their New Year's Eve costumes represent Art as the King and Ramona as his Fool? Whose idea was THAT, I wonder? And look at their body language...she's leaning in, while he's sitting up rigidly, barely responding to her kiss.
Interesting.

All the people who have been writing about the perverted Art Bell are truly witty, and as Bell's Hell's says, wry and hilarious. Are you going to give up trying to find out the truth?? Please don't let this be closing time.

Art Bell has threatened Above Top Secret with a lawsuit, a frivolous one at that. Art is showing how full of shit he truly is... for nothing they write could ever be grounds of a lawsuit...at least not one art would ever win.
Art has said many things 100 times worse against the us government and other people. Is Art Bell biased?

Freedom of speech applies between the government and the people ... not between individuals.
I hope Art sues and wins.
That would be great!
The owner and Author just made a new post.
Instead of being able to begin writing for the article "Who is the Antichrist?" I will focus my time to show you how Biased, and how much of a Hypocrite that Art Bell truly is.
I've personally lost 100% of the respect I once had for the man. There is a lot to this, and I will not back down, if Art Bell wants a fight then ATS will come face to face with him.
You should have read our statement Art, for we are not intimidated by anyone, or anything nor am I, and that is not a load of BS we spout through our mouths.
Watch out for a new Article coming soon.
Art could not win, plain and simple. Nothing said in the article is presented as a fact. Facts are needed to sue and Art has nothing but his load of shit stuck in that mouth of his. Oh, besides his ego.
I'm referring to the misuse of several people's names, Katie dear, not just my own. Read the whole thread, why don't you?
Of course, we should all be thrilled about being impersonated, since imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. It also means (to quote the character Lennie Briscoe) that the last original thought Art or Carl had, they left swirling in the bowl.
Art won't have a case. Freedom of speech applies in every field of Journalism no matter what you may think.
What ATS does is ask questions and presents us with both facts, conspiracies and subjective views. Never once stating they or he believes any of it is true. Art has no case.
Art is just full of hot air and shit.
"Art Bell has threatened Above Top Secret with a lawsuit, a frivolous one at that. Art is showing how full of shit he truly is... for nothing they write could ever be grounds of a lawsuit...at least not one art would ever win."
I have just read part of that website. Apparently the person who publishes it, can neither spell nor use proper grammar and syntax.
And he's going to challenge a high-powered lawyer in court?
Laughable!
Go get 'em Art.
Chew him up, spit him out!

I see nothing wrong with the article. If there are any errors then I am sure it was done due to the haste in which it was written, due to deadlines.
Typos happen, even to the best of us.
(And he's going to challenge a high-powered lawyer in court?)
America is not a nation created by high powered and highly corrupt lawyers. America and the American court system is about truth and justice. Art doesn't stand a chance if someone has the balls to confront him.
"There is a lot to this, and I will not back down, if Art Bell wants a fight then ATS will come face to face with him."
LOL, I'd like to see his picture. I bet he's a combination between Carl and Captain Spike Mike ... leader of the Bell's Angels Bicycle Club.
He's got 29 cents for a lawsuit (borrowed from his mother against his next week's allowance) and Art Bell has $170 million dollars.
This was fun for a while, peeps, but there is only one instance of intelligent life on this forum ... and I am leaving right now. I've had all I can take of you morons.
Obviously, public school education is epitomized here. Goodbye.
I am not responsible for the previous post.
Then why is your name on it?
"America is not a nation created by high powered and highly corrupt lawyers. America and the American court system is about truth and justice. Art doesn't stand a chance if someone has the balls to confront him."
God, are you naive!
You must be 11 or 12, tops.
This is an adult-oriented forum ... get the hell out of here kid.
Who needs money for a lawsuit when one can defend themselves? It's been said that only a fool defends themselves in a court of law. I tend to lean more towards: only a fool depends on a corrupt lawyer to represent them.
Bell's Hell, it's beyond obvious that you are uneducated.
Anyone with 2 brain cells to rub together can tell who the real Bell's Hell is. Quit wasting your time, Carl you fucktard fat ass.
I did NOT post in bold font.

This is the Official discussion thread for the Article:
Art Bell remarries and Conspiracy theories abound. abovetopsecret.tv
On April 15, 2006 Bell announced to the world that on his recent trip to the Philippians he married a woman "in her early 20's" Bell kept restating over and over like a love starved puppy, or perhaps a man with a guilty conscious that "After hundreds of hours talking through video conference, I know her better than most Husbands know their wives; going to and from work and then maybe having 3 or 4 hours a day together before Bed. She is so beautiful and I am the luckiest man alive. I couldn't be Happier; Airyn is the love of my life."
All of this is after knowing her for a three-month period. Wait a Minute! Did I say Three month period? You better believe it folks; Bell has been courting Airyn since January and his former wife Ramona Bell died on January 5th, 2006; if you add up the math with his mysterious saying on January 29, 2006 "Ask me in a year" and his recent admission on April 15 - that such saying was directly connected toward his affair and relationship with the now Mrs. Airyn Bell (a mail order bride)
one might just come to a conclusion that something extremely weird is going on and it could have been an episode of discussion on the Coast to Coast AM radio program.
How long were Art and Ramona married? : Ramona and Art were married for 15 years. Almost every night he would say that Ramona was "My soul mate"
How did she die? (The Non Speculative version) The official cause of death was; due to a massive circulatory failure resulting from an asthma attack she had suffered earlier in the day.
Would it be possible: That the circulatory failure was caused not by an asthma attack - but by another means? I'm not sure where to side on this issue - but I am very open minded to the details, and speculations.
The way the world works: If a person acts suspicious (from their normal behavior, all out of no where) then that person opens themselves up to subjective reviews of how they are living their lives and how it may relate to an event or events prior to such change - this is true in any murder case (At times, it is the biggest give away that captures the person - as was the case with Scott Peterson - ) I hope the Selective Conspiracy group do in fact find something worthwhile - either to confirm or deny their suspicions. If Art is just a tactless man, no crime against that - but if there is more to this story....

You are sooooo correct LIPTON.
After listening to the tape of ART announcing his brand new baby daughter again. NOTICE how ART kept repeating -- "go to the website and check out her picture" (like any proud papa would)
ART stated: "After three weeks of going through all my email, a girl popped up on my private email."
FOLKS, THREE WEEKS! THREE WEEKS! Your so-call SOUL MATE just DIED and ART was still going through his: "I'm sorry for your lost," mail when he was Internet whacking off with his new bouncing baby girl.
PS
The first few callers didn't have computers and ART was sooooo disappointed.
NOTE: I also think it's funny how NONE of the coast to coast callers said Nothing negative about ART. I know we're all pissed -- where are the calls to George or ART stating so.
Jada, Art's sure running scared now! And look! All those disgusting racist posts are still up...but my last post has been deleted.
How very odd!
I wish Rogers Cadenhead would delete the spam and block his I.P.
Thanks, Rog, from all of us who hate bigotry.
"Thanks, Rog, from all of us who hate bigotry."
LOL, you mean that as a joke, right?
What a stretch! After everything you people have said about Filipinos?
They love bigotry, Rog, they absolutely LOVE it ... as long as it's their own!
Well, I see there are many imposters on this site. I had made some comments but stopped participating because strangers usurped my identity. Can't someone clean this up so we intelligent, witty people can have a meeting of the minds instead of wasting time?
Besides, if we are united in our assessment of Art's offensive and ridiculous personal choices, where do we go from here? ...Manila?

Did anyone see the newspaper article that was in the local Pahrump newspaper about Ramona's death. According to the article Art would not return their phone calls (this is his local paper, mind you.) They say in the article that a spokesperson for Art called the newspaper and said that Art did not want them to put an obituary for Ramona in the paper and told them that Art did not want anyone sending Ramona flowers.
Many times family will say in lieu of flowers send money to such and such an organization. If Art is so concerned as he stated on his show that people need to know that Asthma kills then why didn't he say instead of flowers send a donation in Ramona's name to the American Lung Assoc.
Art is at the very least guilty of being one cold mother F*****!!!
www.pahrumpvalleytimes.com
The link below discusses proper bereavement expectations in the Phillipines. Why would a Filipino girl even participate in a marriage so soon after a death? It is so crass.. It doesn't make sense even through the perspective of her culture...
I include the information as reference. Read the last paragraph.
Death and Loss in the Phillipines
by
Sandi Clark
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Maria (a pseudonym) is a 38-year-old woman who was born in the Phillipines and lived for fifteen years in a suburb of Manila with her middle-class family of housewife mother, lawyer father, and five siblings. Maria's father relocated to the United States (California) when she was twelve, and the rest of the family followed in pairs a few years later. The family is very close- knit and strongly Catholic.
Maria began our conversation about the customs surrounding death and grieving by describing Filipinos as "very Catholic." She stated that even families who do not go to church regularly or who aren't strongly religious will fall back on Catholic traditions at the time of a death. While Filipinos will seek medical advice and use medical technology, apparently their fundamental belief is that a person's death is "an act of God" and that strong faith can thwart a death. When it doesn't, however, there can be guilt that one's faith wasn't strong enough to save a loved one.
Maria described many of the rituals surrounding death as very "showy." Women are expected to grieve very openly -- publicly sobbing, swooning, fainting, and/or hugging the casket of the dead person -- while men are typically more reserved. Maria was raised to believe that obvious, public grieving indicates how much the griever cared for the deceased and, also, lets God know how heavy the griever's burden is. She said that the Filipinos believe that the "more emotion shown, the more respect shown." Maria felt that another showy, public tradition surrounding death is the family's spending of lots of money -- on the food offered during visitation, the casket, the flowers, the service, the burial place -- to make sure that the deceased is seen as loved and esteemed. It is usual for families to talk openly and with pride about the debt they incurred as a result of a funeral -- the greater the debt, the greater the family's standing.
Since Filipino society is very close, people are expected to come together to grieve in groups rather than do so privately. Maria said that family and friends are expected to come forward to support to the grieving family and that not doing so is considered an offense. Filipinos judge the life and stature of the deceased by the number of people gathered for the visitation or funeral; and when people gather during visitation, there is very open discussion about the deceased and one's grief.
Maria said that when she lived in the Phillipines there were no nursing or funeral homes. People might visit hospitals briefly for acute conditions, but most people are cared for and die at home. (In the case of the elderly, the tradition is that the person would be cared for by the oldest child.) Once a death has occurred, it is considered very important for the deceased to be blessed by a priest to ensure he or she will get to heaven. The body is both prepared for burial and laid out for visitation in the home. Word of mouth is the main source of news about the death and burial. In the period after the death and before the burial -- which is between three and seven days, depending on how long it might take certain family members to travel to the town of burial -- the family stops all personal business. Instead of working or resuming normal activities, the family cooks and makes other preparations for the visitation that is ongoing until the burial.
As a rule, the casket is open and it is very normal for people to touch the body of the dead person. Maria said that Filipinos don't believe in cremation and feel a body should remain whole. Rosary sessions are held each night for thirty days to aid the deceased in getting to heaven. These sessions take place in the home of the deceased's family and are another opportunity/obligation for family and friends to publicly pay their respects to the immediate family of the deceased. At this time and throughout the period of visitation and funeral, Maria said that it is considered disrespectful to show emotions that are anything but "somber and depressed."
As was mentioned above, funeral arrangements -- such as the casket and flowers -- are very elaborate, since what occurs at the funeral is considered a reflection of the deceased's life. The funeral itself is a long procession on foot (since towns are small enough for the cemetery to be close by), with participants singing parts of prayers all the way to the cemetery. Maria said that the procession will take an indirect route to the cemetery and make its way around the town to give as many people as possible the last opportunity to pay respects to the deceased.
Maria mentioned that Filipino culture holds that the "longer the grief, the better." For up to a year and often beyond, men will wear a black ribbon and women will dress in black to indicate they are in mourning. It would not be unusual for a widow or a woman who has lost a child to death to dress in black the rest of her life. Other rituals that extend the period of mourning include holding masses for a specific dead person at several local churches over the weeks following the death. (Again, family and friends are expected to attend.) Families also visit the deceased's grave often for months after the burial (particularly on major holidays) and hold a special mass on the first anniversary of the death. In the case of relatives of Maria who recently lost a young adult, the mother, father, and two brothers slept in the bedroom of the deceased for six months after her death in order to be closer to her. This was considered only slightly unusual.
To: "But Wait there's More"
Thanks for the link to the Pahrump Valley Times. I did not know that Art did not want Ramona's obituary in the paper. How sad.
Ramona's Mom and the rest of her family are more than likely going through much grief and it looks like Art did want to acknowledge them in an obituary for Ramona, or maybe for some other strange reason?
Ramona's Mom did get to visit with her daughter 5 days before she died as per the Art Bell New Years Eve webcam picture at the top of this page.
I am an ex-fan.

LOL, visitor. That's really funny.
Not funny carla not funny.
It IS funny.
I bet Art Bell stinks soooo bad.
Thank you Mark! Just what was needed to get everyone back on track. Someone with a brain.
Thank you, Mark, for pointing out the obvious.
Well, I can see that the people from FF are trying to shut down free opinion as posers of racism and bigotry. this goes to show how badly ARt and Carl are just as bad as Ayatollas in Iran who marry 9 year old girls.
The pictures of the Airyns home and parents speak for the whole situation.
The poverty is saddening and the fact that there are "ugly americans" willing to take advantage of these people makes me as an American ashamed.
My c2c addiction has been broken. I just watch the Turner Classics channel.
Damn! I was having such a good time till all this.
Free speech only when you agree with their point of view. Sounds like a bunch of 15 year old liberals!
Last night on the 75-meter ham band, all the hams were celebrating
joyously about Art's leaving the country today. They are apparently
all really sick of Art getting on the air and acting like "King Shit".
They were making all kinds of fun of him and ridiculing all the stupid
mistakes he has been making ever since Ramona died. They all seem to
believe that Ramona was the person responsible for his radio success,
and that without her he will collapse into the dung heap that he is
because he is such an inveterate fuck-up. Art was conspicuously
absent from the conversations, but he was obviously listening because
he did telephone several people (who he thought were his friends!) to
complain about what was being said about him. Those so-called
"friends" then got on the air immediately and told everyone everything
Art said because they can't stand him, either. He seems to have very
few, if any, friends left. And I must say that I agree with the hams
who dislike Art. He makes me sick. What a disingenuous hypocrite he
is. I hope he goes away and never comes back to disgrace the shores of
this wonderful country again, and I hope Premier Radio now understands
what a complete pain in the ass he is and lets Noory, et al, take over
his show. What was really funny, though, was how Art decided he was
going to "clean up" the ham bands (by which Art means, get rid of
anyone who ever criticizes him) singlehandedly, and he called Chief
Enforcer Riley Hollingsworth every day to make false charges against
his fellow hams until he had completely ruined his reputation and
credibility with Hollingsworth. Hollingsworth even had to write a
letter to one ham that Art had falsely accused of jamming, saying that
the charges levelled against him by Art were "fake". I'll bet Art
loved that! Hey, and how about that really cool haircut and hair dye
job he got after Ramona died, to try to make himself look younger?
That was really funny, too. It made him look like the old fart that he
is, only one with brown shoe polish applied to his hair. I'm telling
you, this guy is a complete fuck-up!!
The greiving period is a lot deeper not only when it is your soul mate who is deceased but when
a) it is a young person
and
b) death is sudden and a surprise
He should be numb.
How can this marriage be possibly true? And, I still say it is bizarre that a Filipino girl and family would participate in a total abandonment of all Filipino protocol for grieving (see prior post.
She was absolutely aware of his position and saw it as an opportunity to entice, seduce, and manipulate him. If she just wanted to be supportive, she would done just that and advised him that she would never marry so soon after he had become a widower.
There is a lot more to this story than we will ever know.
What type of Catholic church is running in the Phillipines? Friends and family that have gotten married in the Catholic Church have always gone through pre-canna classes which take a few months.
Apparently, that didn't happen with Art and Airyn.....
wierd.....
Check it out, peeps....Art Bell is shutting down forums it seems.....or I could be wrong.....
Art Bell-the man who supposedly believed in open and free discussion now tries to hinder any open discussions of himself...

"We're going to be down for a day or two. All Articles on Art Bell have been taken offline - they will return if our lawyer gives us the green light to do so."
abovetopsecret.tv
Jack has reiterated a good observation (and put many threads together very coherently) about "honestly" and "truthfully". Gavin DeBecker, who handles security matters for a variety of clients, wrote in "A Gift of Fear" that predators follow some set patterns.
One of them is "too many details". The person who is trying to prey on someone attempts to establish trust. Their own words sound like lies they are to their own mind, so they embellish with a lot of details. They will also attempt to establish trust by saying, "Trust me" or something similar. This fits in well with the con man comment of stressing one's honesty when it doesn't exist.
When Art was going on about Ramona's death, part of me was thinking, "Too many details" and "Why does he keep talking about how honest he always is?"
In order to establish more trust with their victim, they try to find commonalities that the two of them (may or may not) share. Things like, "I see that you have textbooks. I studied religion, too." By talking about his cats, his interests, his home and his first soulmate, Art seems to be trying to establish a rapport with his listeners. After all that has gone on recently, I think that this is unreal. He seems to be very good at charming people.
Great post, Jack K!
I hope this SOB Art will be hunted by what came down the pike here.
Something tells me he had something to do with Ramona's death.
Let's hope some Homicide Cop out there is doing his job and investigates this pervert.
The entire story he so pathetically sniveled about, after Ramona died didn't seem to fit.
In fact it stinks to high heaven.
Now he wants to split and live in the Philippines?
I guess he wants to get as far away from the investigators as possible.
That SOB is probably guilty
I hope he gets what he deserves.

One thing that bugs me is that Art was going to let us all feel sorry for him and allow us to tell him on his show how sorry we felt about Ramona's death for ONE YEAR, WHILE really in the meantime he had remarried and was living in another country. According to what Art said on his own show, was going to wait a year to tell us something big.
His Ham buddy slipped and let the cat out the bag so Art had to come clean about his communicating with Ariyn by email a few days after Romana passed away and then hooking up with Ariyn via videoconferencing soon after, becoming engaged and then marrying her. (Who in their right mind would be emailing a strange woman during the couple of days and weeks of their wife's funeral.... gross.)
So Art was going to let all his fans and listeners feel sorry for him for a year, while he was actually happy and living in another country with a young wife?
So that tells me that Art planned to actually get on the radio and pretend that he was upset and lonely with Ramona's passing for an entire year, while actually he was living with the new love of his life and a new wife. Yikes.
Why should any of us believe anything he tells us on his show if he was willing to lie and have us feel sorry for him for an entire year, and obviously Art wasn't going to moarn a woman he lived with for 15 years.
I don't think I'll ever be able to listen to Art again with the same trusting that I once had. And hearing on this board how he has treated the memory of his wife after her death has turned me off of him forever. How can anyone listen to his show without thinking of the lies he wanted to tell and the way he treated his wife's memory.
Ramona may get her payback, because people I have talked to who were in the military and were in the Phillipines say that it is not a place that any American would just move to, let alone a supposed millionaire talk show host. So Art's new home is not going to be like living in some beautiful village in Italy, Hong Kong or Spain, but a scary, violent and disease filled country run by the Chinese red Army, violent gangs, and terrorist groups.
Art Bell. All I can say is, I have ZERO respect for you now. How DARE you tell people they shouldn't have left their animals during Hurricane Katrina (which I agree with), that your cats are "like" your "children" and then you go and give them away. Glad you got over mourning Ramona in like ONE DAY. Unbelievable!!!!!

Sad to say, but someone doesn't become a great liar in one day. I agree with the other posts here - if Art is willing to lie (as he stated on his own show "I have something to tell you a year from now")about his new wife so easily while he allows his listeners to feel sorry for him and his wife's death for one whole year and had not planned to say he had remarried than he must have a heart of stone, or be just in it for the money and/or fame. Maybe he knows that some of his guests are truthful and some are not, but he doesn't care as long as we listen and believe what he says. And as long as Clear Channel and Art, himself, make a buck. I really don't know what to believe any more. Maybe the rumors of Art really giving disinformation to make the real people in the paranormal community look studip true? Sad - very sad.
TYPO>>> I really don't know what to believe any more. Maybe the rumors of Art really giving disinformation to make the real people in the paranormal community look stupid true? Sad - very sad.
I want to thank Rogers Cadenhead for this board. I hope it continues. I noticed that other boards abour Art and Ramona's death didn't get many hits and after a few days there were no longer any posts. What ever happens with Art and his show will probably be over a year or two. I would like to ask Rogers Cadenhead to play journalist and let us know what he hears, and if possible allow us to post. Thanks so much.
Art was a liar. He said that he never screened phone calls. Well, guess what, I was hung up on by him numerous times, while using the Wild Card line. If he didn't like your subject, he hung up the phone and proceeded to screen calls. "I am not a crook."
You said it, unbelieveable. I wouldn't leave my cats for noone. How can he do this to beloved pets and then bring 2 of them to a country where they are eaten like hamburgers or peanuts, and boiled alive like shimp?
what an asshole you are, Art....and I thought you were a good man
"How can he do this to beloved pets and then bring 2 of them to a country where they are eaten like hamburgers or peanuts "
I wish I knew where I could get a peanut as big as a cat. That would be great, wouldn't it?

UNLESS Art Bell took Catechism here in the US. Even on a rush job it usually takes a couple months. That means Art had made his escape plans very near or even BEFORE his "soulmate's" death.
Of course Art may have taken advantage of the late Father Malichai and forged his signiture on some letters.
I wonder what was in his first confession.......(dream sequence started)...
PRIEST "Please kneel and confess your sins my son."
ART BELL "I'm not getting on my fucking knees for anyone, asshole! I PAID for this!"
Priests can be paid off.
"Where is Dr. Evil? He really livened up the joint!"
I'm back. I was actually in the joint, but I'm out now.
"Radio talk show host Art Bell announced last night on his syndicated late night radio show, Coast..."
That sounds like a BAAAAAAAAAAAADDDDDDDDD idea to me!
If you haven't seen this before, take a good, long look at Prediction #18. Creeeeeeepy....
Back on the outside, eh, Dr. Evil? *shakes hands* Glad to see they ain't rehabilitated you none!
VISITOR - Thanks for putting up the pictures of Manila... WOW!!! Worse then I thought.
CICERO - Thanks for the info on getting pets into the country. When Art was on with Noory a week or so ago he said that he had decided to take 2 of the cats. It doesn't sound like you can decide to do this last minute. If I read it correctly you have to get the wheels in motion and your paper work in order 30 DAYS ahead. SO is Art REALLY taking the cats or just telling us that to get us off his back. ????
Glad to see DR. EVIL Back... we missed your humor.
Yea, how did Art meet the Catholic requirements for pre-martial counseling and such which according to the details on the Phillipine website on a priest marrying a couple.
LOOK UNDER the section called "General Church Wedding Requirements."
How did Art jump through all these hoops so fast on getting married and moving to the Phillipines. He has to do certain things to be able to stay in the country longer then 6 months.
www.gov.ph
Cicero, it's about time someone did.
Two points:
1. Announcing his engagement to a new "soul-mate" just two-weeks after the former wife's funeral makes the death look premeditated.
2. The age of the new wife (which has yet to be verified) vindicates Oats and Stevens.
American's relocating to the Phillipines are only allowed to bring $75,000 into the country. One reason is that the Phillipine govt does not want rich outsiders coming in and changing their political policies, or influencing their politicians or the Church. Art is not allowed to even purchase any real estate. His wife can buy property, but it must be in her name.
I'm sure that there must be ways to get around certain things, but you would have to have someone quite powerful behind you. Maybe Clear Channel???? Clear Channel may have friends that could assist Art, but how would THEY benefit from helping him. Someone in their corporation must think that Art's recent behavior is odd. Just more unanswered questions.
He said he would be there at least a year. Didn't he say he might come back?He also mentioned something about staying in the condo for now; maybe buying property later. What happens in a year?
Also, Re her funeral: He said he bought a plot next to hers and he had their wedding rings soldered together because they had talked about that and it was what she wanted. How many cemetaries in Pahrump?
Yeah....how the hell did Art jump through all those hoops real fast in THREE MONths............good info on that site. Looks like and act of Congress to get married to a foreigner there....hmmmm
What does Art Bell and a mutually pleasing sex act have in common?
They are both 69.
"Art is not allowed to even purchase any real estate. His wife can buy property, but it must be in her name. "
Purchase?? I thought he was renting.
Feegle, Clear Channel is part of the New World Order.

Art you fool! When I get old I'm getting me a big blonde American girl...someone like Anna Nicole Smith. She would never just marry me to eat my cats and get my money.

Don't worry. I am hot on the case!

He said he is not selling his house. That beautiful estate. Anyone would love living in that area. It's better than what she had.

Art's house looks more like a compound.
I've heard some people on this post and other places say that Art is worth $170 million. That is probably more then Rush Limbaugh is worth. Why would someone with $170 million dollars live in a simple place in the middle of the desert - I imagine that his property in Pahrump is not worth much. Land is probably cheap there and the place that he were living was basically a double wide trailer. Even his cars were older... 1998.
I imagine that Art is worth a couple million, but not $170 million. Give me a break. Who would live like that and have that kind of money. Also, Art was basically a low paid radio host before he started the paranormal thing. While Clear Channel pays him... let's even say $1 million a year, I doubt he's worth what rumors say.
I doubt it as well. If he was worth that much he could at least by himself a new face and get some tucks in his flabby old ass, since that poor girl is going to have to ugh...see him naked...not that it would make much difference
I think that rush has twice or maybe three times that much.
Enoyed reading all these posts. Art's credibility seems to be in question from his own behavior. How can you support a man who treats his wife this way... as Art admits emailing a strange girl a few days after his wife's death. Saying his cats were his family and then basically tossing them aside. Maybe using a poor girl who had herself on the internet looking for a man to rescue her from her poverty.
Looking back on all the years I listened to Art I know think that maybe about 25% of what he said was true. While maybe guests like Hoagland may be real, I now am starting to think that maybe Art is a disinformation person... minimizing what real people say with fake stuff to get everyone confussed. Whether true or not I don't think I'll ever be able to listen to him again.
Someone who has such a soul to treat his wife's memory so poorly is a low snake. To not even say nice things about her when he announced her death, but only talk about how he would get by without someone to shop for him and do his housework was just horrible. To disrespect her by taking up with a stranger days after her death is just wrong.
Maybe the answer for Art's coldness is that he isn't human... maybe he's a man from another planet that has no conscious.
I found on a USA TODAY article that Rush Limbaugh signed a $285 million contract from 2003 until 2009 - Premiere Radio/Clear Channel saying it was the richest deal in radio history. I don't know if that includes his staff or not.
www.usatoday.com
Pia...please don't insult snakes.
Rush Limbaugh is a dope fiend and a GWB's pimp. I hate partisan politics.
To not even say nice things about her when he announced her death, but only talk about how he would get by without someone to shop for him and do his housework was just horrible. --------------
Damn, I wish I had heard it when he first came back. I only caught the tail-end of it when he said something about how he dropped his keys when grocery shopping as he used to fuss at Ramona for dropping her keys when coming in with bags of groceries. so why didn't the louse help his wife ubload groceries from the car?
the biotch.....
I remember shortly after Ramona's death how he complained that he didn't even know how to write a check anymore, because she had managed everything for him. And didn't know about buying groceries, or managing finances. It seemed like she was his administrative assistant and personal slave. Which makes me wonder how he thinks this kid is going to replace all of that.
I really think his career is done. He'll probably play around in Manila for a year, then get bored and come back to Pahrump divorced and retire once again, this time for real. I never used to like sNorry but I think I'm a convert. At least he doesn't have bizarre personal life announcements every 6 months and you can count on him to put you to sleep each night.
These comments are hilarious...too bad Art's life has turned into such drama. Retire in Asia for good Art...give it up. I'm not for or against you, but there's a lack of class and comportment somewhere in there...
Art used to fuss at Ramona for dropping her keys when she was carrying groceries? What a complete jerk. How about helping your soulmate, love of your life out?
He has this grandiose sense of entitlement - like he is entitled to be treated like an infant and have some slave doing his bidding. I'll bet Ramona used to put his clothing out the night before. The more I read about him, the more I am convinced that he has a personality disorder.
Even his ham buddies didn't have any respect for him. No wonder he has to hang around with HH. Nobody else will put up with his narcissistic tendencies.
Airyn, I feel bad for you. Like Ramona, you are expendable and replaceable.

I agree...I think he is a disinformation person and now for the grand finale he is making people like Whitley Strieber support him when he behaves like a cold hearted snake. Yet Whitley has these years of imagined friendship with Art. He is using his friendship to make his friends support despicible behavior and that makes people lose respect for them. If my best friend came up to me and told me they just married someone 39+ years younger then them 3 months after their spouse died, I'm sorry, but I would be just as disgusted as I am now. But Art has shown his ability to wield power over people. That with his complete lack of empathy or compassion towards the dead spouse would make me suspicious if it was the saintliest person I knew before that. Bell has drug Hoagland from a very interesting topic and one which I find credible into the end of the world crap that he and his good buddy Dames push. I think people like Hoagland should stick with what they know about and not let the Bell's of the world suck them down the misinformation highway. Whitley seems to stay true to what he believes on his show at least even when it contridicts Bell, but sheesh, please don't send anyone anymore bible passages. The only story in the bible Art's story reminds me of is Lot sleeping with his daughters.

This is not a personality disorder, this is how a man should be! When we re-take America, we will turn men back into men and women back into our servants, as God intended.
Reconquista!
We can admire someone like Art Bell, he is a REAL man!
Of course Art bell shoots cats.
You Americans are so messed up that you will spend hundreds of dollars on a street animal but not spend a penny on a Mexican child who is crawling across the desert just so she can make some money in America to send back to her family.
We live here, we work here, we pay texas.
We have a right to be citizens.
Art does not keep dogs and cats alive, they are not worth the life of a human being.
Art is in the Phillipines to help the people.
Move back to Mexico and ask your corrupt country to straighten out itself. The corrupt Castillions elite of Mexico don't want you there because of your brown skin, but you are too stupid to see that.
Now take this elsewhere. Noone is interested in your problems.

Best to ignore them. Don't you think?
At the end of the twentieth century, local and international forces have merged to escalate the sexual exploitation of women and girls. Policies, practices and crises are combining to increase both the supply of women and girls vulnerable to exploitation and the demand by men for women and girls to be used for their profit and sexual gratification. Sexual exploitation takes many forms, such as sexual harassment, incest, rape, child marriages, temporary marriages, female genital mutilation, pornography, bride trafficking, battering, sexual torture and prostitution. All of these practices violate women's dignity and autonomy.

Is Art in the Phillipines, yet? I wonder how he likes living in a high-rise of shitholes where they sell catmeat on a stick...
He left the 29th and it's a 15 hour flight. The humidity must be killer. It looks like a nasty, nasty place. He had to have a very good reason to go there to live. But look where he was living! Sometimes people who get money just don't know how to spend it.

If you're going to compare Art to any flora or fauna, consider raw sewage. What, you may ask, does Art Bell have in common with raw sewage?
They both STINK.
Thought I had remembered Art getting approximately $10 million out of the sale to Jacor nine or ten years ago.
Found this quote, which says $9 million, from The Washington Post dated 3/29/98:
"He is a loner who lives modestly even now that Jacor Communications, which owns the Limbaugh and Schlessinger shows, has bought his weekday and weekend programs for $9 million."
(He sure didn't know how to spend it, he thought his aging double wide trailer was luxurious. Poor Ramona, bet he never, ever asked what she wanted.)
Which reminds me, I've wondered and worried about the kitties all weekend. Both the ones who allegedly went with him as well as the others. Bet he did not bother to go to all the trouble to get Yeti and Abydos' paperwork done so they could make the trip with him. And I've had a sickening feeling that he may have just taken poor Comet and Dusty out behind the house and shot them as one poster suggested. Maybe Yeti and Abydos too. We'll never know since he could still talk about them on the air and we'd never know the difference.
And I've had a sickening feeling that he may have just taken poor Comet and Dusty out behind the house and shot them as one poster suggested

Could be. But, considering they could end up boiled alive and in a stew in the Phillipines, it would be a mercy killing. Those cats would be miserable in that city cooped up in one of those high-rises. I would rather be shot.
Did everyone start disliking Art before he killed his wife or after?
_______
I disliked Art loooong before he killed his wife because he proved himself to be a liar, a self-centered jackass, and an all-around psychopath many years ago. Just read his own comments (posted above a few days ago) for a sample of his "philosophy"--if you could call it that.
What I don't understand is why anyone EVER liked or respected him at all.
What the heck was in that Y2k survival package that I heard he sold? Anyone know?
From Art's webcam
What, is that some kind of threat Art?
You know this only makes you look guilty of something. With all your hypocrisy of exposing cover ups and bringing things to light, you look like even worse in many people's eyes.

Well, I wonder what Art is doing right now in the Phillipines???
....wait til he has his first argument with new young wife. I bet he'll feel completely estranged from everything, at least I hope so.
I have not listened to C2C since this cold-hearted new marriage news came out. Somehow I feel if I can't believe he loved his 'soulmate' enough to mourn the tragedy of sudden death; how can I ever believe him about shadowy secrets?
Maybe, I feel the whole show is just a facade, instead of true (which I believed before)...because his Ramona relationship was just a facade...and nothing was really there. Maybe all the shadowy secrets I stayed up til 5AM to hear are not real AT ALL either.

Me neither. The whole thing just put a bad taste in my mouth.
I don't believe for a minute he took any cats with him. He only said he was taking two with him because he felt the heat. He is cold. He probably killed them. My neighbor did that.
I think one of things that was attractive about Art was that we thought he loved cats. There is something attractive about a man who loves cats. It was quite horrible to find out he didn't care at all and that he was going to dispose of them and go to a place where they eat them. And they do. I know now how phony he was and I am mad at myself for not seeing it. Creepy guy.

"Some interesting quotes from Art ...
'It comes under the category of telling you the truth. Something I'm really big on.'
--Art Bell, April 17, 2001
'I'm still a reporter.'
-- Art Bell, March 5, 1999, appearing on Larry King Live when asked if he was a believer or a reporter.
'I'm not a reporter. I'm a talk show host...'
Art Bell, March 5, 1999, on the same Larry King Live show where he earlier said he was a reporter.
'I had a lot to go on, Larry, and so I broke the story...'
-- Art Bell, March 5, 1999, to Larry King regarding the bogus Hale-Bopp Companion saga. Wait, don't reporters break stories?
The veracity of Reed's claim, says Bell, is unimportant, though he admits he wouldn't feature a guest who was a proven fraud.
'It's a fascinating story--you don't get many like Jonathan Reed's, with pictures,' says Bell.
--Article on the Jonathan Reed UFO Hoax that appeared May 26, 2001 in the Seattle Weekly.
'I wouldn't want the listeners to think it wasn't real.'
-- Art Bell to Russel Dowden of SETLAB after Dowden told Bell a picture of an alien was hoaxed by an FX team and he could prove it.
'Ratings equal money, I should know.'
-- Art Bell "
It would have been nice if one of those phony psychics on c2c could have warned us about Hurricane Katrina in La.
For those of you who have access to LexisNexis, here is the link to the entire transcript of Art Bell's March 5, 1999 chat with Larry King. I could cut and paste it here, but I fear being censored--it's 7871 words long:
Does anyone think Coast to Coast will disappear after George Noory decides to quit?
That won't be for another 30 years. He will never have another opportunity like this one. Into writing books, etc. Get the money while you can.
I hope not, but in the annals of ufology and other paranormal studies, people with credibility problems often take down and entire organization. Could be the same with Coast to Coast. I think as long as Noory doesn't condone Art's behavior, it will survive if Art leaves the show at least. If he stays on the show, god only knows what we will be treated to next. Why do you think George Noory will quit?
hey email me the LexiS NEXUS ARTICLE IF U CAN...USER5998@aol.com thnxs
hey email me the LexiS NEXUS ARTICLE IF U CAN...USER5998@aol.com thnxs
Right now, I'd say George is in a good spot to continue Coast, but if he did decide to quit, got sick (had a scandal of his own) or just could not do the show anymore, I think Coast may just collapse. And my reasoning may just be that a new host may not bring in the ratings (money) that George does now. And the 400 or 500 station monopoly may fall apart. Lastly, I hope the owners of Coast and its stations realize we no longer want Bell on the air even as a caller let alone a backup or weekend host.
Let's start a campaign to push Art Bell into a permanent retirement by contacting everyone possible from station managers, advertisers, CEOs, station comment lines, George Noory, and tell them,"We don't want Art Bell back on the air." If the momentum is great enough, even Art Bell will be fired. The ABC station (50,000 Watt AM giant) WJR 760 in Detroit, Michigan removed Art Bell, in 1995 after a loyal listener uprising. Mr. Art Bell you are Fired! Anyone up to it?
For Good Idea poster -- Sounds like an excellent idea as well as a good way to take a stand on moral integrity.
Midnight Cowboy-Yeah, I think you could be right. I personally liked Ian Punnet alot though. I don't know how he did in ratings, but I would listen to him if Noory left. He knows that subject matter as well as Noory. But, that is only if he'd want the show back for some reason. I agree whole heartedly that we don't need Art Bell anymore.

Hey, Carl W Richardson is back! Trying to bury the posts with his N&F posts and CSI Pahrump.
Maybe he got contacted by an insurance company and asked about his holiday excursion whilst disabled. There were a lot of pictures, some with him on his knees during the 3 hour (Art's own words on air) wedding ceremony, and the 14 and a half hour flight to the Philippines (Carl W Richardson's post on fantastic forum). I wonder how the disabled Hamhock wiped his own ass in those tiny airplane bathrooms, or did he just sit on a cork all the way there?
At any rate he is still the same erudite wordsmith he always was. That kind of education comes with the degree in morality he claims to have.
Hey tubbs, better let her get on top, or you'll be up for murder.
This site is busy because other sites are being heavily censored by either Clear Channel staffers or a handful of sycophants like Spike Mike.
Well, Mr. Cadenhead (if that's really you), you know the movie quote: "If you build it, they will come."
If you don't like these threads, you have the power to close them down, just as you closed the very popular thread about Bell remarrying and leaving the country.
But something tells me that you LIKE your fifteen minutes of fame, or this would have ended a long time ago. I bet you never had as many hits on your site in its entire existence. People are actually READING your blog now. Before this stuff with Art Bell happened, you were just one of a sea of billions of blogs out there worldwide.
Besides, you answered your question a long time ago when you announced that you were at the top of a Google list under the heading "Art Bell's Wife." Must have been a gratifying moment for you, eh?
All of us legitimate posters have thanked you repeatedly for letting us post here. I'm just curious, now that I've explained things from my perspective: Why are you asking us this question NOW?
I wonder if "kitty litter" and "canned or dry cat food" is available in the Philippines. Just a thought I had.
"I'm surprised the mainstream media has no interest in the love life of radio host Art Bell, which has become a lot more interesting than you'd expect of a 60-year-old man. In the last three days, more than 3,000 people have hit Workbench from search engines looking for information on Bell and wife, posting more than 480 comments.
I covered the news because people were showing up here Sunday looking for it, thanks to this blog's top placement in Google for the term Art Bell's wife.
There's something deeply wrong about letting incoming traffic dictate the topics you cover, but I enjoy the idea of feeding the news jones of the world about any random subject that brings them here in great number."
--Rogers Cadenhead, "All Art Bell, All Romance, All The Time"
Cicero, don't you know that Carl is a TRAINED WRITER? He said so himself in these very pages. And as such, he's very sensitive...minimalist in his expression, to be sure, but a true artist. Look at the way he staggers the N and F words so that they zig-zag in between! It's wonder to behold. The very amount of time it took for him to complete each part of his oeuvre must have brought the sweat literally pouring from his furrowed, flabby brow into his beady little eyes.
Imagine how he must have suffered on the long flight to Manila! How the frail aircraft must have rocked to and fro under the lopsided cargo of his weight, frightening the passengers...how many seats Art must have purchased for his friend so that Carl's body wouldn't be squeezed permanently between the armrests...how nobody else on the plane got anything to eat because Carl forgot to have breakfast that morning.
And now, in his tiny little condo high above the city, Carl finds that all of a sudden, his wife spends a lot of time with her relatives, leaving poor Carl all alone with nothing to do. Hence the bursts of lengthy creative activity that we have all come to know and love.
I think we have all learned what Carl does in Manila when he is bored.
The Bell Witch was Kate Batts, John's Bells intended
but died and John Bell married Lucy quickly after.
Whether John had a hand in her death or not, his quick
marriage to Lucy implies that Kate was not happy about
John being happy and returned to make him suffer. Her
body was barely cold before John found a new willing
bride. Perhaps, John was Kate's unfinished business.
With John's death, Kate's or the Bell Witch's business
was finished.
There are still reports today that the area known as
the Bell Farm is still being haunted not only by the
Bell Witch but also by John, Lucy, and perhaps even
Betsy Bell. The house is gone but the spirits still
linger.
Emotions dictate behavior in life so why not in death?
Is it possible that Kate was so angry with John at
the time of her death that she came back to exact
vengeance? The question is not whether or not John
had a hand in her death but what did John do to
warrant such a vicious haunting?
Kate was a violent and spiteful spirit that delighted
in others sufferings. Perhaps, this is because she
was unable to live her life in happiness as she died
before marrying John. Then having the man who
professed his undying love for her, seek out and marry
another immediately after her funeral! John's
behavior seems odd for this day and age, and one would
have to assume it was even in the 1770's given the
haunting of the Bell Witch.

In answer to your question,the other places are censored and only let people post who will not post anything in a negative light regarding Art Bell or his friend Carl. This is so against what we had believed to be true regarding the integrity of Art Bell and his purpose to provide a media to allow the free speech and uncensored converstation of topics. I loved Art Bell, but now I am so disappointed and disgusted with him that I don't care to listen to his voice. Formerly, I loved his voice and I thought everything about him. His genuine qualities made up for his lack of physical attraction. His inappropriate behavior regarding the death of his wife has made me question the validity of his purpose, integrity, reputation. Unfortunately, he distastefully appears to be selfish. I believe in the principles of LOVE, COMPASSION and FORGIVENESS for ALL. However, I do not feel he possesses the qualities to give the same to others. In a world of givers and takers, I have discovered that Art is a TAKER! It was inappropriate for Art to marry a young lady 40 years younger than himself, especially before the corpse of his wife was barely cold. What on earth could these two possibly have in common??? How shallow and empty. His gloating on the air about how, "Oh, my God..." how she was the most beautiful woman he has ever seen in this world, made me thoroughly DISGUSTED! Red flags went up when I heard him talking negatively about Romona's temper and complaining about her dropping her keys when she carried in the groceries. My husband carries in our groceries. My husband is a real man and this makes me appreciate my husband's unselfish, caring qualities. Regarding Art, it is ALL about Art! Bragging about holding up his books! When you brag about yourself, there is no need for anyone else to say anything. God doesn't close a door that He doesn't open up a window and let the sun shine in! In Art's situation, I don't feel he waited long enough to grieve properly and let his life unfold naturally. Instant gratification, so sad and too bad. I don't wish Art any misfortane, but I will no longer be a fan. I feel we are all connected and should care about each other, but that doesn't mean that we agree with the mistakes of those of which we care. It is also sad when people sell their soul to kiss the behind of a celebrity, just because they are somebody famous. What is right is right and what is wrong is wrong. Mr Rogers Cadenhead, thanks for providing a place where people can be free to speak honestly on such a controversial and unsettling subject.
Why are you asking us this question NOW?
I'm just curious about whether there's a need for a place that Art Bell fans and foes can discuss him without heavy moderation.
I only closed one Art Bell thread because I haven't had the chance to modify my software to handle such a large discussion.
Mr Rogers Cadenhead, thanks for providing a place where people can be free to speak honestly on such a controversial and unsettling subject.

I agree with this sentiment. I personally stopped listening to Art Bell back when Art was pushing Ed Dames on us as having accurate predictions when they were so off base and bizzaro to boot that I began to wonder what his motivations really were. So, I guess I wasn't completely surprised that Art Bell would do something so disgusting and cold, but I have to admit that when I thought of another Bell thing to do marrying a child bride 3 months after his wife's death never would have entered my mind in a million years. Convincing people to buy freeze dried planton, yes. Child bride, not in a million years. I thought his treatment of listeners who he led to spending a fortune on freeze dried foods and other crap told me all I needed to know about his cold hearted nature, but I did actually believe he loved Ramona and his cats. What makes me even madder now is that I do like listening to Noory, Ian and Whitley's shows and Art's behavior is damaging their credibility and every guest Art has on his show will look like they are condoning this disgusting behavior, so he is hurting the entire paranormal field. People in this field have such a hard time finding a voice that most will do his show I think even if they are disgusted by him, but in doing so it damages their credibility.
"Open lines" tonight to let some pressure off (according to Noory). Bet the only calls that get through are about the price of gasoline or immigration and nothing about Art.
Rogers Cadenhead, you have become a household name. Thanks. Of the sites discussing this subject, yours is the most interesting.
Rogers:
There is no meaning to life but procreation ... for all species.
Most of the people here believe otherwise and they are trying to be seen and noticed to feel some sort of self-importance.
Those like "Cicero" who, on here, feels as if he is some sort of a Renaissance Man who wields important influence ... while, in the real world, no one notices or pays attention to him.
And, of course some of these posters who have been gullibly manipulated by the Art Bells of the world have a huge investment in their lives being coupled with his.
That explains the huge disappointment or euphoria with respect to what has happened in his life.
Most people on Earth have never heard of and will never hear of Art Bell. But the necessity of the emotional attachment that the, ones who have, bear with respect to AB, is simply a result of their own ignorance.
And even the moron above who rips you and your blog a new one when you are giving him the opportunity to post here. He bites the hand that feeds him.
People are incredibly stupid, vicious, venal and every bad thing I can think of ... and they are also some of the good things ... but not enough.
God does not exist in the form that many choose to see him. If he did, he would never have been so stupid as to let Noah live.
Me, I am here for the entertainment. I only post when I'm also doing something else that needs to be done. I'm already at the computer working on quarterly income taxes for my business, so why not take a breath and have a laugh or two reading some of these posts ... then, back to work.
I usually post BOTH sides of whatever the morons are arguing about. I love to watch them sway back and forth in reaction to my posts.
Sometimes I post a reaction to my own posts to see how other posters will take up some argument that I have started.
This Art Bell thing is totally unimportant, Rogers ... but I DO appreciate the fact that you provide this forum for my entertainment and the entertainment of others like me.
Thank you.
PS - no, I am not the nigger faggot poster. His intellect towers wayyyy above mine. I would never be able to have an even rudimentary conversation with him/her/it.
why, i moved to parhump because art bel l lives there. are you calling me stupid for doing that?
I'm just curious about whether there's a need for a place that Art Bell fans and foes can discuss him without heavy moderation.
I only closed one Art Bell thread because I haven't had the chance to modify my software to handle such a large discussion.
--
Obviously, sir, there's a need for this forum, a need that you acknowledged in your own words (see above). Other people have explained it to you very simply: there IS no other place to discuss this issue that hasn't been shut down.
So far, there hasn't been much--if ANY--"heavy moderation" on your part, given the pages and pages filled with bigoted epithets that still exist on both threads. You eliminated several reasonable, funny, and well-stated posts, but you have left that load of racist/sexist bullshit untouched. Why is that?
Also, if you're not happy (as you claimed once to be) with our posting here about Art Bell, why don't you update your blog to reflect these feelings??? If you were to do so, I would be more inclined to believe that the posts bearing your name were really written by YOU, and not a Rogers Cadenhead imposter.
Given the fact that both Art and Carl are posting here (Art wrote the entry by "WHY"), it wouldn't surprise me a bit if they WERE indeed impersonating you in order to get exactly this sort of reaction.
"Pissed", yes, you are stupid for doing that.
"This Art Bell thing is totally unimportant." I disagree. Ramona's death and the mail-order child bride fall into the gray area of legality. Acceptance legitimizes his actions.

See, Rogers, this proves my point about how stupid people are.
And now the moron is ragging on you for no credible reason that I can see.
Stupidity. Ingratitude. I can think of 100 other words here ... but I won't.
PS - I may be Art Bell, but I'll bet you (completely suspicious) are nigger faggot man/woman/idiot.
I don't care if my posts are known or now. No offense to Rogers ... but in real numbers, I doubt that there are many of the world's population reading this blog.

Well, Art, you don't have anything else to do in Manila, and God knows you love publicity about yourself. While Airyn is picking up young studs at the bars downtown, you've got nothing to do but curse the world in your miserable, impotent way.

Has anyone else listened to c2c since this whole thing? My addiction got broken, because it all seems a joke now. I put it on last night and heard some guest with a weasely voice like Aaron Donahue saying that Mars had water and all this other B.S., and I thought....now the heck does this weenie know something that NASA don;t know? So, I turned it off and started reading a book. For a few exceptions I will be listening for the ghost stories from callers on open lines, or a few of the guests....other than that, I can't take it seriously anymore.

Good one...whichever side you're on!
I haven't listened either. I'm going back to reading books on the paranormal. You get a lot more out of reading the credible investigators books then listening to them on C2C anyway, but I did like the opportunity to hear the people talk about their interests and sometimes guests would call in and ask really good questions. Aaron Donahue is just another offshoot of Ed Dames, so I never found him credible. His voice sounds like he is Ed Dames.

If he was thinking of anyone other then his own selfish dirty old man needs that is the way to help someone out of poverty. Desperate people do desperate things like this girl has obviously done. I feel for her and all the other children and young adults in the world that are forced to prostitute themselves for the HOPE of a better life.
If George Noory is smart he will say nothing positive about this move from Art Bell.
Why in the world would Art give Airyn a JOB? The only "job" Art wants her to perform is the "blow" sort. He sure as hell didn't marry her for humanitarian reasons, no matter what he COULD have done.

"The name "Cicero" is derived from cicer, the Latin word for "chickpea." Plutarch explains that the name was originally applied to one of Cicero's ancestors who had a cleft in the tip of his nose, which resembled that of a chickpea."
But Cic's apparently is much bigger and keeps getting hooked into other people's business.
Maybe we should call him "hooknose."
How do we say that in Latin?

I DO agree with you. Life should matter to those who live it, just as my life matters to me.
Beyond that, there is no significance.
I have lived many lives, as have we all, just don't feel too empowered by that because you really have no choice.
You are destined for eternal life whether you like it or not ... which does not necessarily mean that you are that important.
Personally, I would like to see a full-scale investigation (not whitewashed) into the Art Bell affair.
I do not believe that a normal human being can go from the death of one soulmate, most beautiful woman in the world, love of my life ... to another, seemingly overnight.
Hell, it would take at least five years and probably never. I see nothing wrong with getting some nookie on the side, but his UTTER HYPOCRISY is too tough to swallow.
My personal opinion is that he probably lost those feelings many years ago and they had been living a convenient "arrangement" while he dealt with things like Airyn on the side.
Ramona really believed that she had "witchly powers" and could somehow change Art or restore the relationship.
I won't convict Art unless I am shown some real evidence (and especially not from some lunatic opinions on this board) instead of just some strongly suspicious circumstancial evidence.
But it leads to some juicy, speculation, doesn't it?
Rogers ... another reason I keep coming back here.
A number of people here change their "nic" now and then. It prevents fraudulent posts if you never use the same "nic" twice.
Nobody is convicting Art of anything just questioning his level of sanity, crediblity and disrespect to his deceased wife.

About the only good to come out of the Ramona/Art/child bride fandango is the number of fans who've been shaken to their senses by this whole affair. Yes, Art is full of shit, his show is, was and has always has been completely full of shit. An amusing distraction perhaps-- sort of like an intellectual train wreck-- but there never have been any deep truths revealed in Coast's latenight hours. Overwhelmingly and with damn few exceptions, Coast's guest's are charlatans, phonies, and the genuinely disturbed. R.C. Hoagland, I believe, has a mental problem. He sees conspiracies everywhere (like the scientist in "A Beautiful Mind" without the actual intellectual achievement). Has anyone ever heard an explanation of, "hyperdimensional physics" -- are there any equations-- don't think so. I recently heard him defend his crazy assertions about Old Navy stores to George-- take your medicine, Richard. But by far the CREEPIEST of all the Coast windbags is Major Ed Doom, could anyone have made more wrong predictions than this guy? If Ed was asked to locate his asshole with "technical remote viewing," he'd spend three weeks "tasking his finest colleagues" and he'd definitively tell all that his rectum was located inside a lobster trap somewhere off the coast of Aruba. Oh,and that cheap fucking phone he's been using for years-- all the pops and fffffss ... Christ, I'd like to weigh him down and throw him over the side... and that brings us back to the ring leader, Mr. Bell. He has, on many occasions, personally vouched for vermin like "the Major", so it should come as no surprise that all the "soulmate" stuff he said about his wife Ramona was just so much crap. Art is a carnival barker/con man-- his entire show has been bullshit ghost stories around the campfire and the revelation of his low moral character and questionable personal behavior is just more of the same. On the count of three-- everybody grab a book and turn off your radios, ready... one...two...
Oh, and before I fall off my soapbox-- let me just add that George Snoory is cut from the same cloth as Art. He even sounds a bit dumber that Art (try counting the mispronounced and misused words in a given evening-- it's a substantial list. The free Las Vegas hotel room commercial with skank Tanya Roberts is a beautiful example.. it's "off the wall" bad english). And may I add that the big open-line "release" of the "pressure KOOKER" (his pronunciation-- not mine) was a gutless exercise. Not one phonecall on the topic of Art and his misadventures! Can anyone still believe that there is any TRUTH on Coast To Coast AM?
Art should fit in real well in Manila. Check this out. news.yahoo.com
Hey poster COAST HATER/LISTENER... You're right on the money. Loved your descriptions. Couldn't have said it better myself.
This is how Manila is described by some travelers:
"The traffic noise made it impossible to sleep, and although there was a toilet in the room, there was only a garbage pail full of water instead of a bathroom sink. Manila has brownouts, so it could become pitch dark at any second. It's also helpful if walking the streets at night to see the broken sidewalks and scare off the rats."
"The homelessness in Manila is overwhelming. People are living and defecating on the main streets in the broad daylight. At night, people are living under an umbrella, in large paper or cloth bags, in doorways, or just plain passed out in the street."
"So much smog that sometimes you can't even the city skyline. The way Manila is layed out makes no sense. Malls and ugly factories will be right next to each other. Nicer building, hotels and condos are surrounded by shacks with very poor people. Homeless and poor people are everywhere. In some places garbage is 3 or more stories high."
" Manila has got the worst traffic and the worst driving of any city I have ever been to. The big surprise was when no one gets mad or upset sitting in traffic, or if someone cuts them off in another car. As in most foreign countries they are heavy on the horn but no one seems to care.
If traffic annoys you DON"T GO TO MANILA!"
AFTER ART HAS LIVED IN PEACE AND QUIET OUT IN THE DESERT, I THINK HE'S SENTENCED HIMSELF TO LIVE IN HELL BY GOING TO MANILA.
Manila sounds awful. I remember when Art told on the air that he was moving to Manila he said something about "what a beautiful place - it looks different, it smells's different." Now we know what he meant... garbage as tall as buildings, smog so thick you can't see, people using the sidewalk as a tiolet and the smell of cats cooking, three beggars begging,two rats a' nibbling, one Art Bell talking from a high Manila palm tree. YUK!
It's a far cry from the fresh arid smell of the high desert, the crystal clear night skies with the stars sparkling so beautifully and the only drawbacks are the UFO exhaust fumes and alien droppings.

these comments are too funny...really enjoy them..thanks...I guess this is the only forum that real C2C listeners will ever have to "vent"...very disapointed that King George didn't let even one Art call in last night. But I am originally from Chicago and whenever the Cubs were in a big lossing streak (which happened a lot) you didn't hear the manager walk around giving interviews and saying things like, "hey how about those cubbies"..no the manager would just keep his head down and pray for a break before the whole ship went down..that is exactly what George is doing..Art has done enough to screw up the show..George doesn't want to start calling attention to it...can't really say I blame him...oh well, we need to get over it, and return to C2C, listen and enjoy...all though it is a bit like wrestling, once you know it's fake, it does take some of the fun out of it...oh well...life goes on..I'm not going to let some child molester stop me from being entertained on those nights I am up late..C2C has done a lot of good and has helped fill some long nights for security guards, truck drivers, etc....
Poor old fart Art...having a baby
Should have bought young kitty a doll or a puppy.
I have read all the comments here from the moment it was announced dear Ramona, had passed. There are discrepencies and untruths being stated. How do I know this you ask? Because, I am a relative of Mona.
First, it saddens me, as well as, many other family members to experience the frantic pace of Arts change in life so quickly after her passing. Just three weeks after her death he boasts about a change that is coming. We were still focused on helping him get along without her in Pahrump and before we know it, he has already moved on to someone else. An expectation Mona expressed to us while she was alive was to stay connected to Art and assist him if she were to pass away before him, because she knew he would be devestated without her. And we attempted just that, but obviously not for long.
After Mona passed, Art had great concern for his personal privacy, hence no obit or flowers were allowed. He didn't just lose a wife...there was a loss of a great lady, sister, aunt, niece, cousin and daughter, that wasn't noted or acknowledged. Mona left behind many relatives who loved her and respected her. Who would know it? In addition, Ramona's brother did not die of an asthma attack as he stated. He choked to death on food...there is no relevence.
I think what's worse about it all is that Art did not even bother to contact his immediate family members (except for his mother-in-law) about his new bride or move to the Phillipines. No phone calls, or goodbye was expressed to his two brother-in-laws, two sister-in-laws and his two nephews after 14 years of marriage. We weren't even given an opportunity to go through any of Mona's personal effects to gather momentos of her life with us. It was as if we had no history or relevence to him.
It is true that Mona supported him in every way and performed way more tasks than the typical wife would do. It was exhausting and she did it all with such grace, committment and unconditional love. Her life duties and purpose were all about Art first, unfortunately, which she was growing weary of.
We can't help, but feel her memory has been disrespected. Although, we knew too well how dependant Art was on Mona there should be more to her legacy left behind then what little was shared by him on the air. So much more than her occasional temper that he shared so intently. That wasn't all there was to Mona. If you had the pleasure of knowing her you would remember her infectious, cackling laughter...no, there was way more going on with her and more she wanted to do with her life.
She was a devoted aunt to her 3 yr old nephews and so thoughtful and generous. They adored her, but Art wasn't as engaged nor comfortable around young children. The thought of him being a father now to a newborn is shocking and so out of character based on our experiences with him. We pray this child is lovingly accepted.
We miss Mona terribly, and love her more. We can't help, but speculate what she must be thinking about all of this. It's unsettling. We all realized that some day Art would need to move on with his life after grieving such a loss...the loss of a loved one, his "soulmate'. But, no one expected it like this...it's disturbing...it's disturbing the peace of a life not yet given a chance to be a memory.
We love you Mona!
If the 'relative' of Ramona would like a sympathetic ear, a shoulder to lean on, etc. There are those at HamFanz@cox.net who would like to help in any way possible.
My gawd, I just heard Art Bell say that his child bride is pregnant!!! Apparently she is having some problems with the pregnancy (and I don't wish her any ill), but he is such a damned old fool!!! He's going the whole Heather/Paul McCartney route with the anchor baby and doesn't even know it. Once she has that kid she'll take him for everything he's got and ditch him. No way is a young girl like that gonna stay married to a crazy old coot like Art. Truly there is no fool like an old fool.
I can't believe all the ridiculous comments about Art Bell on this page.
His personal business is just that, his.
Try getting a life and maybe you can enjoy Art's show for what it is, and get over stuff that is not any of your stinking business!
Talk about weirdos, you all take the f*cjking cake.
Now back to the all night flight.
MijBert Foonman Esq.
>His personal business is just that, his.<
Oh really?
He is a public figure who flaunts his private life every chance he gets.
If he's your friend, why don't you tell him to shut up already?
We are tired of his type.
He is scum.
Don't listen to these jealous and sexually repressed people
ART! It's YOUR, life YOUR choice, and no one forced that lovely
YOUNG woman to marry you. Most of the "disgust" you are feeling
is coming from jealous men that only WISH they could dump their
fat money hungry wives and get a younger babe , or it is coming
from fat , older insecure women that see this move as further
confirmation of THEIR fears they will one day be replaced by a
young babe as well.
Everyone downs the rich and calls 'em "greedy" until it is they
who are raking in the money. This is the SAME thing.
I love your show and I still listen especially NOW because I
will openly admit that I hope I am able to land such a fine young
sexy babe when I am older should my wife die or leave me. You're
my HERO Art!!! Keep up the good work!

My Very, Very, Very, VERY Dearest Art Bell:
(No, I'm not gay)
Whadda year '06 was, Captain! I envy you! You're the REAL-LIFE Forrest Gump!
Some parallels:
Gump served in the US Armed Forces, so did Art.
Gump was well-travelled, so is Art.
Gump was a marathon runner, Art was a marathon DJ (on his Alaska radio gig).
Gump's wife died, so did Art's.
Gump has one son, so does Art (from a past marriage).
I first discovered Art in 10/96 when I started working graveyard shift and he covered Heaven's Gate, Hale Bopp, Mel's Hole, Malachi Martin, etc.
What a refreshing change of pace from daytime radio electoral politics!
Life is like a box of chocolates, etc. Ya can't write a better fiction movie than Art's year '06!
Can anyone add to the Gump/Bell parallels?
-Disk Jockey Andy
Mr Bell worked hard all his life and gave of himself and he deserves to have happiness in this life. People should just keep their jealous comments to themselves and let the man live and love whom HE chooses to.
A C2C listener forever, Kenneth
A letter I sent to Art Bell, because I JUST CANNOT KEEP SILENT ABOUT THIS ANY LONGER!
TO ART:
I just cannot sit back anymore and stomach all I'm hearing without expressing
my opinion. I have listened to coast to coast on and off
for some time now, but no longer will.
First off Mr. Bell, I am sickened by how you treat your animals!!! DO YOU KNOW
HOW STRESSFUL IT IS TO PLACE ANIMALS (SUCH AS
YOUR CATS) ON A PLANE FOR A LONG TRIP? Numerous reports have confirmed that animals
do not do well on flights, ESPECIALLY CATS!
The stress alone will shave off a few years of their life. First you conveinantly
dispose (heartlessly give away, or whatever) your cats that
you CLAIMED to love so much with Romona, and now you replace them quickly with new
cats and are willing to ship them via a plane ride
to the U.S. while also stating that you may move back to the Manila in the future???
What are you going to do then? Ship them back to
Manila.... back and forth all the time? DO YOU HAVE NO CARE AT ALL FOR THEIR OWN
PEACEFUL AND HAPPY EXISTENCE FOR THEIR
SHORT LIFE?
Secondly, I do not begrudge anyone happiness, such as you have questionably found,
but it appears VERY OBVIOUS that you are an individual without
much respect for women or anyone else!!!! You are a spineless weak man who could
not tolerate a short time without a woman after Ramona's
passing. How cowardly and self centered are you? Others have gone through much
more then you have in your life, and they
are tough to pull through it all. YOU ARE VERY WEAK!
It is also plain as daylight that you are only concerned with your happiness and
a young piece of ass!!!!!!!!!!!!! Your CHILD wife (in comparison to your age)
also sounds like a gold digger, and the baby news has locked in a good financial
deal now hasn't it???? It also benefits you as well, in that you will also
have a hold on your wife! YOU BOTH KNOW EXACTLY WHAT YOU ARE DOING!!!!! AND BOTH
FOR SELF CENTERED REASONS.... PLAY ALL THE GAMES OF LOVE YOU WISH WITH EACH OTHER,
BUT I DON'T BUY IT!
It is also suspect as to why you allow your wife to fly while being almost two months
pregnant, which can raise blood pressure etc.... or were you
hoping for a miscarriage??? Not accusing, just asking.
I can tell you one thing from first hand personal experience, I REGRET HAVING HAD
MARRIED SOMEONE OLDER THEN MYSELF AT ONE TIME, BY JUST A
FEW YEARS! LOVE AT FIRST IT SEEMED, BUT HOW OLD THEY SOON MAKE US YOUNGER ONES
FEEL!!!!! IT IS A VERY BLEAK EXISTENCE ONCE THE HONEYMOON IS OVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
NEVER AGAIN FOR ME!!!! I LEARNED THE HARD WAY, BUT THANK GOD I DIDN'T PICK
SOMEONE 40
YEARS OLDER THAN MYSELF, AS YOUR CHILD BRIDE HAS!
You also mentioned that your new wife never would move to America, but of course
you saw to it by your interesting persuasion to get the
upper hand in that regard as well, right?
You also obviously are very biased against American women (that is, caucasion women),
and perhaps that is because they can see right through you! You cannot push them
around! Besides, your obvious low self esteem could not hang on to one for very
long, let alone obtain one I'm sure...
especially an attractive an itelligent one!
I could care less what perversions you and your new wife carry out, but I'm
am very concerned over how you treat helpless animals, who form
a bond with you, and then you disregard their well being as you do!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Finally, I find it disgusting that you feel it necessary to quit smoking for your
new wife and baby on the way, YET, YOU NEVER DESIRED TO
QUIT SMOKING FOR RAMONA, WHO HAD ASTHMA, AND WHO COULD HAVE BENEFITED MOST WITH
THE CESSATION OF YOUR SMOKING!!!!!!!!
Admit it Mr. Bell.... YOU ARE ECSTATIC THAT RAMONA IS OUT OF THE PICTURE NOW!!!!
Your behavior this past year MAKES ME WANT TO VOMIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YOU SPINELESS,
AND COWARDLY LITTLE MAN! YOU SOUND LIKE A FIRST CLASS, IMMATURE JERK, AND GEORGE
NOORY SOUNDS LIKE A MEALY MOUTHED IGNORAMOUS!!!!
GO AHEAD, SNIFF OUT THIS EMAIL!!! I COULD CARE LESS! POST IT IF YOU WANT TO ON
THE FRONT PAGE OF TIME NEWS WHILE YOUR AT IT, BECAUSE
I WOULD SAY WHAT I'M SAYING HERE IN THIS EMAIL, TO YOUR FACE, AND TO THE WORLD
AS WELL IF I COULD!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I HAVE READ ELSEWHERE
THAT YOU ARE VERY GOOD AT SILENCING ANYONE WITH AN OPINION IN OPPOSITION OF YOU!
WHETHER IT IS TRUE OR NOT, I DO NOT KNOW, BUT
I'M MARRIED TO LAW ENFORCEMENT TOO!
Signed,
An X LISTENER!
P.S. Since when does the Catholic church not require a year prior counseling and
classes before a marriage, and since when do they
allow marriage without annulment from your first wife (before Ramona),
as I have read elsewhere that this current marriage is
your third marriage? I don't really care, but I am interested in
hearing how the church passed all this over. And what on
earth kind of feelings do you have for your son? You never mention him
anymore, as though you kicked him out of your life as well!
AGAIN, YOU MAKE ME SICK HOW YOU DISREGARD ANIMALS, AND PEOPLE, IF THEY DON'T
SUIT YOUR OWN SELF CENTERED DESIRES!!!!!
GOD HELP YOUR POOR ANIMALS!!!!!!!!!!!!! SHEESH! GROW A HEART MR. BELL! AND
DON'T OWN ANYMORE ANIMALS, UNLESS YOU INTEND
ON RAISING THEM THEIR WHOLE LIFE!
GOOD DAY, AND PRAISE BE THE FREEDOM OF OUR AMERICAN OPINIONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
EH?
HEY MARK FROM THE USA UP THERE!
SOME OF US ARE THE 'YOUNGER AND GOOD LOOKING BABE' WHO
MADE PRIOR MISTAKE IN MARRYING OLD FART MEN. THANK GOD SOME
OF US BABES, TIRED OF FEELING OLD, AND LEFT TO GET ON WITH THE
REST OF OUR EXCITING YOUNG LIVES!!!!!
TOO MUCH OF AN AGE DIFFERENCE IS NOT A GOOD THING!!!!
And Mark, just remember, that today many women earn more
financially than many men, and now date younger men!!! SO WATCH
OUT MARK, YOUR WIFE MAY LEAVE YOU FOR A YOUNGER MAN!!! It is a VERY
common thing today!!! LOL
It all appears to be more of a WIN WIN situation for Art's new wife!
He's old, and she is young enough to get on with her life just fine,
with Art's money, once he starts pushing up daisies. Even if she stays with Art the next 15 to 20 years, she will be young enough to still enjoy life in a youthful state of 40 something.
She can then date men her own age. She loses nothing! Sad thing is however, that her baby will grow up most of their lives without knowing their father, but does she care about that? Well, for people such as she and Art, their self centered desires disallow them to consider such matters and the well being of others.
I once saw a picture of her on Art's web page, which depicts her
wearing a t-shirt stating she is both 'naughty and nice' now I know
why. At least she knows herself, and admits it!
Why won't Art let his new wife work now, as has been stated above
by someone else? Is Art afraid his new wife will be exposed to and attracted to handsome young men more her age?
BETCHA!!!
Art Bell has a gifted art in controlling others... usual weak women.

So sorry to hear of this tragic event. My co-workers and I would anticipate your program for years, while working the night shift.
The memories of you speaking of your wife, your program and my co-workers gives me a very warm loving sensation. I miss all of you.
Art
Congratulations on your marriage and upcoming child! I do know you have Ramona's blessing. Those negative posts above are so very mean to you. Shame on them. Ramona's on another plane of life and wishes your life here to be full and meaningful.
God bless you Art! Earl Boehm
Art, if you wanted to have some fun with a twenty year old. Why not go to one of the legal brothels in the Kingdom of Nye in your own backyard? It would be far less expensive and much more convienient than to travel all the way to the Phillipines to marry somebody who may have been a "sex worker."
Art,
I don't understand why so many people feel they have the right to judge you. All of the bashing posts really surprised me. I know you loved Ramona and I'm so sorry for your loss. You've done what was necessary for your own well being, and it is nobody else's business.
I love hearing your shows and I hope to keep hearing you on the radio for many years to come. Thank you for many hours of listening pleasure and most of all, thank you for the information on "Shadow People." I had a close encounter with one when I was a child and had wondered for years what it could have been. I never heard anyone talk about any such thing until I heard your shows. It's comforting to know that I'm not alone in having experienced this.
Blessings and the best of luck,
Marilyn in Tennessee
We are kids and we hate art bell becasue we are flipinos and he saidthat he makes us puke that was not nice and why do you have to be so races we are just people living in this world we are not in the third world some americans dont understand us how about we wrote something about ameriacans and when you guys come in the flipinse we ight have treat you like you traet us!!!

mr. art bell is an ignorant man.
Guess what folks - there is no set time limit for grief! Some folks never remarry, some only start to consider dating after a couple of years, some after only a few months.....who's to say what's right? If he chooses to be with someone much younger - who cares? It is their choice.
Either all the people who are leaving nasty comments are close personal friends of Art Bell or they are ill-informed, better-than-thous passing judgement before getting all the facts. I'm guessing the latter statement is the case. I can't believe that someone as well-known and respected as Mr. Bell would publish the Filipino hate letter. That is obviously a hoax/fake. Check out Snopes.com.
As for the cats - where were they sent to? Was it some awful place where they won't be fed or cared for? Again, get the facts before making nasty statements.
Sorry but I'm not surprised to see those very negative postings. All you need to remember is that there are many....many people that believe they understand how the whole world operates when likely they've never been far from the literal back yard. It's not a Philippines thing, it's not a USA thing, it's pretty much an "any foreign place" thing. Meaning culture. Meaning that there actually are some places where people DON'T fling hate at a man that appreciates....that desires a desirable and LEGAL AGE woman. Honestly, now that I am over 50, do you realize how very hard it is to meet someone of my generation who is first of all not attached and not fat? So, what's a guy, or girl, to do? Yes, I have hung out at a few Senior Centers, and you know why? I usually meet friendly, helpful and sometimes interesting people to share a meal with. That's more than I can say for any of the younger woman I've asked out the last number of years.
Well, what can I say, it just bothered me abit to hear that Mr. Art Bell has to have stuff like this tossed at him.
"Everybody's beautiful, in their own way..."
Peace,
theThriftstoreMountaineer
to whom this may concern I don't care about you expressing your feelings and commenting about Art Bell and his quick remarryng---stop bad mouthing the Philippines --- you haven't been there you have not lived there --- you don't know nothing for a fact about the country except from bad publication and hear say --- the country didn't do anything bad to you --- stick to Art Bell's issue and leave the Philippines alone
You don't know Art Bell's new wife and family who are you to say horrible things about them...
I find this funny, he is right in some ways where we,
as Filipinos don't actually have an "Identity". I
think this is due to the confusion of our mixed races
from Hispanic, Chinese, American and Malay origins. I
see it in malls, imagine young generations wearing ski
caps and ski goggles in a tropical country, baggy low
rise pants like that of African Americans living in
the Bronx of New York, not to mention endless
whitening products being sold at department stores and
drug stores.
But his ignorance also blinds him from the other
truth. That while we may glorify Anime shows and
Japanese Internet gaming, he is not aware that a
nameless Filipino may be responsible for some
technical aspects of some Japanese software. He is not
aware of our contribution to the the society in
general .Technological advancements that may have
aided post war navigations and landing on the moon.
That the antibiotic Erythromycin was discovered by Dr.
Abelardo Aguilar from Iloilo creating the brand
"Ilosone".
Thomas Edison may have discovered the electric light
bulb and the fluorescent lighting was thought up by
Nikola Tesla. But the fluorescent lamp we use today
was invented by Agapito Flores (a Cebuano named
Benigno Flores of Bantayan Island, according to the
Philippine Daily inquirer), a Filipino scientist.
Americans helped then-Philippine leader Ramon
Magsaysay to develop it for worldwide commerce. That
the personal physician of former U.S. Pres. Bill
Clinton is Eleanor "Connie" Concepcion Mariano, a
Filipina doctor who was the youngest captain in the US
Navy. A Filipino writer Jose Rizal could read and
write at age 2, and grew up to speak more than 20
languages, includind Latin, Greek, German, French and
Chinese.
Or that a Filipino genius was responsible for the near
hiatus in the PENTAGON and White House nearly
infiltrationg their closely guarded secrets with the
"ILOVEYOU" bug. Nuisance maybe, but still one heck of
a 'beautiful mind'...not to be underestimated.
The list goes on and on, but who cares right?
Certainly not Mr. Art Bell...Boy, I'm not surprised.
Perhaps Art Bell does not know that although we
consider ourselves ASIAN because we are strategically
located in the Southeast asian region of which our
nearest neighbors are Malays, ASIA does not mean only
Chinese and Japanese race of people. Then maybe it is
his connotation that "Asia" meant only our
economically successful, paler brothers and he
considers Malays such as Thais, Malaysians,
Indonesians, and ourselves as a "Third World" race.
Then it is "his" ignonimity that would make a
civilized person of whatever race puke. Imagine
literally connecting Chinese, Koreans and Japanese to
the Philippine Islands which is archipelagos away from
the countries he has mentioned. I also wonder where he
got the impression that we aspire to be Japanese( ???)
Hispanics maybe but not the Japanese. But even
Hispanics today do not mind sharing their "surnames"
to their Asian brothers who they have colonized for 3
centuries.
Another sad reality that although most Filipinos
working overseas are domestic helpers and prostitutes,
who does he think educates the toddlers of Hong Kong,
Singapore, Taiwan and Tokyo? Parents of these
countries rarely have time spent with their children,
leaving them to their Filipino nannies. And with
regard to prostitution. Filipinos are not the only
ones working as one. I HARDLY SEE FILIPINOS STARRING
IN PORN MOVIES. THERE MIGHT BE A FEW FILIPINOS WE
HAVEN'T SEEN , BUT MOST ARE FROM MR. ART BELL'S RACE.
He also mentioned that we have no concept of
culture..no concept of asian ideas or asian
philosophy. How can we demonstrate Confucianism or
Taoism in a Christian nation? IS HE INFORMED THAT THE
PHILIPPINES IS THE ONLY PREDOMINANTLY
CHRISTIAN/CATHOLIC NATION IN ASIA?! YOU HAVE TO USE
COMMON SENSE IN A LOT OF THINGS SOMETIMES...
We do not need to create an identity for ourselves. We
are who we are. Our identity stems from the anonymity
we live in this world. How we contribute silently
towards the progress of the world and not just one
country. Although the Filipino blood may be tainted
with malice, corruption, poverty and prostitution, it
is not a perfect race... But so are the others. Maybe
Mr. Art Bell needs to think about this.
WE MAY NOT BE PERFECT MR. BELL BUT AT LEAST WE STILL
HAVE VALUES. FOR ONE THING WE DON'T PUT OUR AGING
PARENTS IN NURSING HOMES BECAUSE "THEY'RE SIMPLY OLD
AND WORTHLESS". WE DONT HAVE AS MUCH NUMBERS OF SINGLE
MOTHERS WHO GET PREGNANT IN THEIR VERY EARLY TEENS AND
EVENTUALLY BECOME PARASITES OF THE GOVERNMENT FOR
YEARS AND YEARS.
YES...WE CAME TO YOUR COUNTRY TO WORK, TO EARN DECENT
MONEY (HALF OF WHICH BY THE WAY GOES TO TAXES BECAUSE
THERE'S SO MANY SOCIAL PARASITES FROM YOUR RACE).AND
BY THE WAY, MOST EDUCATED PEOPLE THAT I WORK WITH
DON'T COME FROM YOUR RACE... THEY'RE ACTUALLY
IMMIGRANTS TOO. AND THOSE EDUCATED ONES DO NOT ACT
LIKE YOU DO, PERHAPS BECAUSE THEY'VE REALLY BEEN WELL
EDUCATED..AFTER ALL THAT'S SAID... WHO IS THE IGNORANT
ONCE AGAIN?!
from a filipina
well said marissa | 2007-03-30 11:22 PM -- but I disagree on not having "Identity" our country is the region's melting pot we are mixture of races that what makes a Filipino that's what we are that's our "Identity" it's just like mixing together chemicals- the composition becomes it's own that's what makes our country uniquely special Americans are the same way they are also mixture of different races and the product is unique --- I will not respond to those few that are uneducated and have obnoxious small mind :)
yahoo answers is posting a message by someone called pagan
claiming that art bell is now alleging someone named david murdered ramona-what happened to the asthma attack story???-apparently art is relating that this david made death threats against his family
someone who would-what?force asthma attacks on the unsuspecting!!!
the heat goes on~
drums keep pounding rythym to this train
~of thought~
well the david that is spoken about in the above post
is david oats,apprently art bell was accusing
david oats the reverse speech dude of putting
a voodoo curse on ramona.
and mr bell was threatning lawsuits for liable!!!!!!
i think perhaps that david oats is the one
that has such a case
against art---david did speech reversals
on arts talk on coast to coast
after ramona's death---it looks
like david thinks that art is guilty
and the reversal of speech that came out of art's mouth
here is a sample of arts reversed speech
reading according to david oats(allegedly)
(kill ramona}
(bitch will die)
(she betrayed me)
(use pillow)
i am trying to locate this speech reversal,
perhaps it is on david oats web-site
at one point david oats was considering
taking the evidence to the laughlin police
seems that there was some flirting with ramona going on
when david was a guest on the coast show
in any case art is reeking from all of the truth seeking
good nieghbor sam~time traveler~
I smell you Art.. You smell me? Watch her ghostride that whip straight to the sky. Ramona.. is kicking it yo.. so don't worry.. keep it down.. because yer homies in Oakland are down.. We here for ys shnizzel.. We b long time listeners... yer show make our grapes into wine... and our ladies look fine..
Ramona RIP..
Yellow bus Chris in 510
THe AbOve comment is obviously on be Half of art art the old fart
yellow bus chris well the color is correct!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Who is the older asian lady in the pic with Ramona? Is that Ramona's mother? If so I wonder what she thinks of Art's disrespect?
I believe Art Bell killed Ramona. He knew she had severe asmatha and Art met the younger woman so he wanted to get rid of Ramona. Die Art Bell, die.
wow wow !!!!!2007 and this is still going on, have to admit this was fasinating!! just like some of the shows, DOES ANY OF THIS HAVE " THE WAR OF THE WORLDS' FEEL TO IT?? this whole blog is sooooo hell of funny----pathos--sympathy--anger---DOES ANYONE REALLY BELIEVE THIS IS FOR REAL? what i think?, i think art just flipped his finger at the whole world, and just maybe he, ramona and arian are all in the rv laughing their --- off !! (OR 2012 IS JUST AROUND THE CORNER )
I keep seeing comments from an email that Art bell did not write, nor did he have anything to do with.
It has been shown in the past that the hateful letter was sent from a college .edu web server that Mr. Bell has never been to nor had access to.
I know art's feelings regarding the Philippines is the total opposite of the views reflected in that bogus email.
To those of you that keep circulating this trash, GIVE IT A REST.
As stated above, most Americans have never been to the Philippines, nor do they know the true contributions that Filipinos have made to the world.
I have been there and I love the country, Pinoys are a hell of a lot friendlier then Americans any day of the week.
A little history that some of you don't know is that Filipinos fought along side Americans in WWII, they played a role and made sacrifices just like Americans. The country's status as a colony changed when it became the Commonwealth of the Philippines in 1935, which provided for more self-governance. Plans for increasing independence over the next decade were interrupted during World War II when Japan invaded and occupied the islands. After the Japanese were defeated in 1945, the Philippines achieved independence from the United States on July 4, 1946
They also contributed the following:
Karaoke Inventor
Roberto del Rosario, a Filipino is claiming the right for the invention of the Sing-Along-System (SAS) that eventually led to the development of Karaoke, a Japanese term for "singing without accompaniment". Among del Rosario's other inventions were the Trebel Voice Color Code (VCC), the piano tuner's guide, the piano keyboard stressing device, the voice color tape, and the one-man-band (OMB). The OMB was later developed as the Sing-Along-System (SAS).
Inventor of Incubator
Fe del Mundo, the first Asian to have entered the prestigious Harvard University's School of Medicine, is also credited for her studies that led to the invention of incubator and jaundice relieving device. Del Mundo, an International Pediatric Association (IPA) awardee, is an alumna of the University of the Philippines (UP) College of Medicine. Since 1941, she has contributed more than 100 articles to medical journals in the U.S., Philippines and India. In 1966, she received the Elizabeth Blackwell Award, for her "outstanding service to mankind". In 1977, she was bestowed the Ramon Magsaysay Award for outstanding public service.
Water-Powered Car
For more than three decades now, Daniel Dingel has been claiming that his car can run with water as fuel. An article from the Philippine Daily Inquirer said that Dingle built his engine as early as 1969. Dingel built a car reactor that uses electricity from a 12-volt car battery to split the ordinary tap water into hydrogen and oxygen components. The hydrogen can then be used to power the car engine.
Dingel said that a number of foreign car companies have expressed interest in his invention. The officials of the Department of Science and Technology (DOST) have dismissed Dingel's water-powered car as a hoax. In return, Dingel accused them of conspiring with oil producing countries. Dingel, however, was the not the only man on earth who is testing water as an alternative fuel. American inventors Rudolf Gunnerman and Stanley Meyer and the researchers of the U.S. Department of Energy's National Renewable Energy Laboratory have been pursuing similar experiments.
Moon Buggy Inventor
Filipinos consider Eduardo San Juan as the inventor of the Lunar Rover, or more popularly known as the Moon Buggy. The Moon Buggy was the car used by Neil Armstrong and other astronauts when they first explored the moon in 1969. Eduardo San Juan, a graduate of Mapua Institute of Technology (MIT), worked for Lockheed Corporation and conceptualized the design of the Moon Buggy that the Apollo astronauts used while in the moon. As a NASA engineer, San Juan reportedly used his Filipino ingenuity to build a vehicle that would run outside the Earth's atmosphere. He constructed his model using homemade materials. In 1978, San Juan received one of the Ten Outstanding Men (TOM) awards in science and technology.
San Juan, however, was not listed as the inventor of the Moon Buggy in American scientific journals. It said the vehicle was designed and constructed by a group of space engineers. In Poland, the Moon Buggy is attributed to a Polish inventor. Worse, the National Academy of Science and Technology (NAST) does not recognize Flores in its roster of outstanding Filipino scientists.
Space Engineer
On June 25, 2002, the provincial government of Cavite awarded Edward Caro a plaque of recognition for his 42 years of service at the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) in the United States where he helped launch the Shuttle Radar Topography Mission or the Explorer. Caro, 70 and a native of Cavite retired from NASA in 2001. In return, NASA during the same year conferred Caro the Distinguished Science medal, reportedly the highest honor it gives to its employees. (Source: Philippine Star)
Fluorescent Lamp Inventor
Many Filipinos acknowledge Agapito Flores as the inventor of the fluorescent lamp, which is the most widely used source of lighting in the world today. The fluorescent lamp reportedly got its name from Flores. Written articles about Flores said he was born in Bantayan Island in Cebu. The fluorescent lamp, however, was not invented in a particular year. It was the product of 79 years of the development of the lighting method that began with the invention of the electric light bulb by Thomas Edison.
Among the other inventors who claimed credit for developing the fluorescent lamp were French physicist A. E. Becquerel (1867), Nikola Tesla, Albert Hall (1927), Mark Winsor and Edmund Germer. French inventor Andre Claude was recognized for developing the fluorescent tubular lighting systems. Yet, he was not officially recognized as the inventor of fluorescent lamp. It was reported that the General Electric and Westinghouse obtained Claude's patent rights and developed the fluorescent lamp that we know today.
According to Filipino scientists, fluorescent lamp was not named after Flores. The term fluorescence first cropped up as early as 1852 when English mathematician-physicist George Gabriel Stokes discovered a luminous material called "fluorspar", which he coined with "escence". The National Academy of Science and Technology also dismissed Flores being the inventor of fluorescent lamp as a myth. "No scientific report, no valid statement, no rigorous documents can be used to credit Flores for the discovery of the fluorescent lamp. We have tried to correct this misconception, but the media (for one) and our textbooks (for another) keep using the Flores example," a Filipino scientist wrote in her column at the Philippine Daily Inquirer.
The fluorescent lamps were introduced into the U.S. market in 1938. Still, Filipinos recognize Agapito Flores as the inventor of the product that illuminated the world.
Videophone Inventor
Gregorio Zara of Lipa City and a graduate of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology invented the videophone and developed the Zara Effect or Electrical Kinetic Resistance.
He Discovered Erythromycin
A Filipino scientist reportedly discovered erythromycin in 1949. He was Dr. Abelardo Aguilar who died in 1993 without being recognized and rewarded for his discovery. Reports said Aguilar discovered the antibiotic from the Aspergillus species of fungi in 1949 and sent samples to Indiana-based pharmaceutical firm Eli Lilly Co. The drug firm allegedly registered the propriety name Iloson for the antibiotic in honor of Iloilo province where Aguilar discovered it. In 1952, Eli Lilly Co. began the commercial distribution of Iloson, which was sold as an alternative to penicillin. Erythromycin, the generic name of Iloson, was reportedly the first successful macrolide antibiotic introduced in the US.
Computer Guru
Diosdado Banatao, a native of Iguig, Cagayan and an electrical engineering graduate from Mapua Institute of Technology in Manila is credited for eight major contributions to the Information Technology. Banatao is most known for introducing the first single-chip graphical user interface accelerator that made computers work a lot faster and for helping develop the Ethernet controller chip that made Internet possible. In 1989, he pioneered the local bus concept for personal computers and in the following year developed the First Windows accelerator chip. Intel is now using the chips and technologies developed by Banatao. He now runs his own semiconductor company, Mostron and Chips & Technology, which is based in California's Silicon Valley.

Modular Housing Inventor
Edgardo Vazquez won a World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) gold medal in 1995 for developing a modular housing system. Such a system called Vazbuilt is reportedly capable of building within weeks a house with prefabricated materials that can withstand typhoons and earthquakes. Ironically, Vasquez is not getting enough support from the Philippine government to propagate his technology, which could help provide shelter to some five million Filipino families without their own homes. Vazquez is the national president of the Filipino Inventors Society.
Inventor of Fuel Products
In 1996, Rudy Lantano Sr., a scientist from the Philippine Department of Science and Technology (DOST), won the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) gold medal for developing Super Bunker Formula-L, a revolutionary fuel half-composed of water. The mix burns faster and emits pollutants, 95 percent less than those released to the air by traditional fuel products. The inventor said his invention is a result of blending new ingredients and additives with ordinary oil products through agitation and mixing, which is a very safe process. The initial plan was to commercially produce two million liters of Alco-Diesel, two million liters of Lan-Gas and an unlimited quantity of Super Bunker Formula-L each day for customers in Luzon.
Natural Gas Vehicle
The Department of Energy (DOE) has developed a vehicle that runs on natural gas, whose rich deposits remain untapped under the Philippine seabed. The project's main objective is to look into the potential of natural gas as an alternative fuel to conventional petrol and diesel for the transport sector. The natural gas vehicle (NVG) has been road-tested in Isabela where an existing natural gas supply from the PNOC Gas Plant is located. Test runs have also been made in Cagayan, Ifugao and Mountain Province. The test vehicle used was the Isuzu Hi-Lander 4JA-1, direct injected diesel engine. The use of natural gas as a fuel is cheaper. On a gallon-equivalent basis, natural gas costs an average of 15 to 40 percent less than gasoline and diesel. There are over one million NVGs in the world today, according to the International Association for Natural Gas Vehicles.
Lamp Fixing Invention
A Filipino inventor has developed a technology, which could revive a busted lamp (pundido) and give it more years of functional life than those of new ones. Acclaimed by the Filipino Inventors Society as timely and revolutionary, the Nutec system can prolong the life of fluorescent lamps up to seven years. Nutec was developed by New World Technology, headed by president Eric Ngo and chosen as the "Product of the Year" at the Worldbex 2000 Building and Construction Exposition held at the Manila Hotel. Engineer Benjamin S. Santos, national president of the Inventors Society, called Nutec a timely invention.
"Tubig Talino"
The Department of Science and Technology claimed that it has developed "Tubig Talino", an iodine-rich drinking water that treats micronutrient deficiencies responsible for goiter, mental and physical retardation, and birth defects. "Tubig Talino" is actually a mixture of 20 liters of water and 15 ml of "Water Plus + I2". Consumption of five glasses a day of this iodine fortification in drinking water is expected to provide 120 micrograms of iodine, which meets 100 percent of the recommended dietary allowance (RDA) of a male adult.
Mole Remover
In 2000, Rolando dela Cruz developed an ingenuous formula that could easily remove deeply grown moles or warts from the skin without leaving marks or hurting the patient. His formula was extracted from cashew nut (Annacardium occidentale), which is common in the Philippines. The formula won for dela Cruz a gold medal in International Invention, Innovation, Industrial Design and Technology Exhibition in Kuala Lumpur in September 2000. In March 1997, dela Cruz established RCC Amazing Touch International Inc., which runs clinics engaged "in a non-surgical removal of warts, moles and other skin growths, giving the skin renewed energy and vitality without painful and costly surgery."
Feminine Hygiene Product Inventor
Dr. Virgilio Malang won a gold medal for his invention "Psidium Guajava Effervescing Gynecological Insert", a silver medal for his "Patient Side-Turning Hospital Bed", and three bonze medals for his inventions "external vaginal cleanser", "light refracting earpick", and "broom's way of hanging" at the Seoul International Fair in held South Korea in December 2002. There were 385 inventions from 30 countries that joined the competitions.
Who Developed Patis?
Contrary to popular belief, there was no fish sauce or Patis yet during the Spanish occupation. Patis began to become a part of most Filipinos' diet only after the Japanese occupation. Here is an account of how an enterprising lady discovered the fermentation of Patis. Immediately after the war, the family of Ruperta David or Aling Tentay started a dried fish business. One day, Aling Tentay stored in jars some salted fish that turned into fragments even before they dried. While in jars, the fish fragments turned into a liquid substance that tasted like our Patis today. Thus the beginning of the thriving Patis business of Aling Tentay, which was officially registered in 1949 and is known today as Tentay Food and Sauces Inc. (Source: Philippine Daily Inquirer)
A Showcase of Ingenuity
Nothing perhaps has been associated with Filipino technology as much as the country's pride - jeepney. The word "jeep" evolved from the military designation, general-purpose or G.P., of a light vehicle first used by the Americans in World War II. Developed by the U.S. Army Quartermaster Corps, this vehicle was powered by a four-cylinder engine and was classified as a quarter-ton truck in carrying capacity. It had served as a command vehicle, reconnaissance car, and ammunition carrier.
The American soldiers brought these vehicles to the Philippines in the 1940s. After the war, these vehicles were left by the Americans and converted by the Filipinos into public utility vehicles. Employing artistic and indigenous designs, the Filipinos came up with a longer, well-decorated, techni-colored and sleeker vehicle, which they later called jeepney. From the standard military jeep, the body was extended to accommodate between 20 to 30 passengers. Modern jeepneys now sport very colorful and intricate paintings, fancy adornments, and metallic decors reflective of Filipino sentiments, values, and culture. The town of Las Pinas has been recognized as the jeepney-producing center in the country. Today, public utility jeepneys or PUJs serve as the primary means of transportation in most provinces. For this, the Philippines came to be known as the "land of the jeepneys".
Other Noted Scientists
Among the other noted Filipino inventors and scientists are Benjamin Almeda who was acknowledged for his food-processing machine; Teodula Afrika for nata de coco; Ramon Agpoon for dragon fire stove; Adriano Alfonso for cultured cement; Laurelio Anasco for "dormitron"; Arturo Baluyot for Philippine-made airplane; Guillermo Barredo for Maharlika water heater; Pelagio Bautista for hydrosil; Dr. George Camara for experiments on teleophthalmology; Carlos Casas, stand-alone amplifier called Voca CDX 1001 Superamp; Gonzalo Catan Jr. for green charcoal; Roberto Celis for multipurpose portable survival kit; Rolando Cruz for emergency water heater;
Ernesto Darang for shake-and-serve nurser; Armen Dator for magic street sweeper; Maria Carlita Rex Doran for ampalaya solution against HIV; Jaime Escolano for fiber-processing machine; Pepito Fajicular for multipurpose routing machine; Leonardo Gasendo for salt evaporator; Ramon Gustilo for artificial bone replacement systems; Oscar Ibarra for studies on algorithm and computing; Samuel Ignacio for early warning device for vehicles; Marc Loinaz for one-chip video camera; Jacinto Ledesma for rocking dental chair; Cipriano Lim for safety switch box; Dr. E. V. Macalalag Jr. for universalurinary stone solvent;
Antonio Madrid for charcoal furnace; Felix Maramba for coconut oil-fueled power generator; Jose Navato for digital fever detector; Maria Ylagan Orosa for developing banana catsup and pineapple vinegar; Francisco Quisumbing for Quink pen ink; Jose Rodriguez for research on leprosy; Felipe Santillan for rotary dryer; Cornelio Seno for "Pressure Fuild Machine"; Manuel Silos for siloscope; Juanito Simon for Tribotech; Camilo Tabalba for telephone electronic; Ned Teves for endotracheal tube cardiac monitor; Juan Urbano for fountain pen; Carmen Velasquez for research on Philippine fish species; and Dr. Gregorio Zara for TV-telephone.
Needing Support
The Council on Philippine Affairs (Copa) has blamed the government for driving Filipino inventors away from the country. At least four cases were cited for this, namely:
Ben Santos, the inventor of the "zero oil waste recycling" was subjected to interrogation by the Economic Intelligence and Investigation Bureau (EIIB) for alleged economic sabotage.
Rudy Arambulo, the inventor of multi-shock bullet, has failed to convince the national police and the military to purchase his product.
Johnson Fong, who has re-engineered carbonless paper, had to export his product first, re-label it and bring it back to the Philippines as an import in order to be accepted in the country.
Roberto del Rosario, the inventor of sing-along system, had to fight for his right over the karaoke system which most Filipinos think was a Japanese invention. The Philippines was reportedly the second largest market of karaoke, yet del Rosario did not receive his due share.
To those of you that like to keep referring to me as a country hick, or a red neck, here is a little more history for you.
From 1969 to 1977 I grew up in Hawaii, North Carolina, Arizona, and Kansas. In 1977 we returned to Arkansas and I have lived here ever since.
It seems that your assumptions that I am some sort of un-educated hick is simply wrong.
I spent most of my life in Hawaii before returning to Arkansas, I have a background in Computer and Radio electronics, Web publishing, Law enforcement, Photography and a number of other fields.
Go judge someone else for a change!
A female is president of the Philippines! Art Bell needs a strong woman with enough energy to keep up with him! Nice place to look for a lady! It's a proven fact that happily married men actually remarry quite quickly after a bereavement. A demographer in Washington D.C. shared that statistic with me. My grandfather also remarried quite quickly. It helped him to cope with the grief and it made two less lonely people in the world. Congrats Art!
It is sad. Some people think they are popular that they forget how small they really are.
Yes, we live today and die tomorrow. Our body will be good fertilzer to plants that are feed to animals, who are slaughtered and cooked for other men to eat. That is life cycle.
Art Bell may soon be a good fertilizer just like you and me some day.
THOSE THAT ART BELL HAVE OFFENDED, DO NOT WORRY. HE HAS A RIGHT TO HIS OPINION, AND YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO YOURS ABOUT HIM.
TO ME ART BELL HAS NO RIGHT INSULTING PEOPLE.
TO ME ART BELL IS LIKE A BIG BIG BALOON FULL OF HOT AIR.
TO ME ART BELL DO NOT UNDERSTAND OR KNOW WHAT HE SAYS. GOD FORGIVE HIM.
TO ME ART BELL IS MAKING PEOPLE CONCIOUS OF WHO THEY ARE.
TO ME ART BELL IS LIKE A DIRTY RUG THAT HELPS CLEAN THE FLOOR.
MAY ART BELL JOIN HIS WIFE SOON IN HAPPY ETERNITY. GOD HAVE MERCY.

WHAT HAPPENED TO HIS WIFE IS A KARMA FOR HIM (MR: ART BELL).
This is an open letter email by Art Bell, a radio talk show host in Nevada (more info in the email itself). Here is yet another person who has taken advantage of his power and priv ilege to use hateful words and racial stereotypes that breed further ignorance and intolerance in our society.
Art Bell is a talk radio host who has two shows that he broadcasts from his home in Nevada , that is rebroadcast by 400 stations across the country.
He's written 2 books. He lived in Okinawa , Japan for some years and had a radio program on the English station here. And, though it's hard to believe after reading the following letter from him, he actually has been to the Philippines (he's traveled fairly extensively around the world).
Check out his website listed at the end to get a who's spreading this hateful ignorance. And letter is so degrading, I think it's really important that everybody read this and not attack him, but respond to him in a civilized manner because otherwise his thoughts will be reaffirmed. Understand that not everyone has a viewpoint like we do, and that this is an opinion of someone who hopefully can be changed only by civil actions.

Filipinos.....*make me puke* (Art Bell)
As we've all come to notice, in the past few decades, Filipinos have begun to infest the United States like some sort of disease. Their extensive involvement in the U.S. Armed Forces is proof of the trashy kind of qualities all Filipinos tend to exhibit on a regular basis. You can see this clearly by studying the attitudes and cultural Icons of most Filipino Americans.
Origins of Pinoys/Pinays:
Are they really Asian? Well we've come to accept the fact the Filipinos come from a part of the world known as South East Asia . But the term ' Asia ' is used in the wrong way. You may notice that contemporary Filipino Americans try very hard to associ ate themselves with groups that we know as Asian. I cannot count the number of times I have seen a ' Third World ' Filipino try to connect themselves to the Chinese or Japanese people. There is no connection and here's why. The Philippines is a Third World country. Nothing respectable has EVER been created by Filipino people during our entire human history. Young Filipino men in America have become obsessed with 'import racing'. They have an enormously perverted affection for Japanese cars. It's a common phenomenon. In their minds, these Filipinos somehow believe that they are Asian and that it somehow connects them to Japanese people and Japanese cars. They often take credit for the ingenuity of Japanese people and say how it's an 'Asian thing'. This term...'Asian thing' derived directly from African American slang 'blackthang'. 'It's a black thang.' 'It's an asian thang.' You can see the connection. It's even funnier that, in Japan , Filipinos are heavily discriminated against. The only filipinos that can live successfully in Japan are the filipino prostitutes. But that's the case for most Filipino people no matter where they live in the world. Now we've come down to this fact...and it is a fact.
Nothing in Filipino Culture can be seen as Asian. They have no architectural, artistic, or cultural influence which is in ANY way, asian. Thinking of the great countries in Asia such as Japan , Korea , and China there is no way you can possibly connect the Philippine Islands. This assault by filipino americans to connect themselves with the great peoples of North East Asia is foul and disgusting. Try visiting a young filipino's web site too. You'll see something called the 'Asian IRC Ring'. It has to do with the chatrooms. The most horrible thing about this is that these TRASHY people are trying to associate themselves with Asia again!! People in Asia don't act like, this at all. What we are seeing here is the natural Filipino in it's element with full access to technology and this is how they act! You will consistently see this behavior over and over again.
Another interesting thing is that these 'thirdworld' people also frequent RC chatrooms such as #chinese #japan and #asian. They must believe that they are some how related racially or culturally to North Asians. But it's completely WRONG! There might have been some distant contact With China and even less with Japan during World War II, but these people are actually more closely related to african americans and Mexican americans.
Do the parents of these young filipinos know what's going on? Would they accept this? I believe that they would and do. This is the natural 'Trash' element in filipinos manifesting itself. Nothing good has ever come from Philippines and I don't believe anything good ever will.
Recognizing your Roots (A Message to Filipinos)
To all filipino people:
Please recognize your ROOTS! You come from the Third World ! You country is a disgusting and filthy place. Most people there live in poverty! Your culture has MUCH MORE SPANISH influence than chinese, and absolutely no JAPANESE influence whatsoever. People in Japan and China , do not act like you. They do not constantly talk about sex and they have a MUCH HIGHER level of RESPECT for each other. There is NO WAY that you can connect yourself to Asia other than location. Your culture and technological advancement does not even come CLOSE to What Chinese, people have done in the past and what Japanese and Korean people are doing now! Everything you do is distinctly filipino. You cannot take credit for Japanese cars, video games, or Hentai! It's not an 'asian thing' it's, an 'American thing'. You have no concept of culture...no concept of asian ideas or asian philosophy! Can you demonstrate how you use Confucianism or Taoism in you everyday life?? You can't. And you will NEVER be able to. I understand that you are trying to create an identity for yourselves as young people... but it is NOT related to Asia .
Your Identity is Filipino. That's all you are. Just Filipino. Think about what that means....
Sincerely,
Art
------------------------------------------
I find this funny, he is right in some ways where we, as Filipinos dont actually have an 'Identity'. I think this is due to the confusion of our mixed races from Hispanic, Chinese, American and Malay origins. I see it in malls, imagine young generations wearing ski caps and ski goggles in a tropical country, baggy low rise pants like that of African Americans living in th e Bronx of New York, not to mention endless whitening products being sold at department stores and drug stores. But his ignorance also blinds him from the other truth. That while we may glorify Anime shows and Japanese Internet gaming, he is not aware that a nameless Filipino may be responsible for some technical aspects of some Japanese software. He is not aware of our contribution to the the society in general .Technological advancements that may have aided post war navigations and landing on the moon. That the antibiotic Erythromycin was discovered by Dr. Abelardo Aguilar from Iloilo creating the brand 'Ilosone'. Thomas Edison may have discovered the electric light bulb and the fluorescent lighting was thought up by Nikola Tesla. But the fluorescent lamp we use today was invented by Agapito Flores (a Cebuano named Benigno Flores of Bantayan Island , according to the Philippine Daily inquirer), a Filipino scientist. Americans helped then-Philippine leader Ramon Magsaysay to develo p it for worldwide commerce.
That the personal physician of former U.S. Pres. Bill Clinton is Eleanor 'Connie' Concepcion Mariano, a Filipina doctor who was the youngest captain in the US Navy. A Filipino writer Jose Rizal could read and write at age 2, and grew up to speak more than 20 languages, including Latin, Greek, German, French and Chinese. Or that a Filipino genius was responsible for the near hiatus in the PENTAGON and White HOuse nearly infiltrating their closely guarded secrets with the 'ILOVEYOU' bug. Nuisance maybe, but still one heck of a 'beautiful mind'...not to be underestimated.The list goes on and on, but who cares right? Certainly not Mr. Art Bell...Boy, I'm not surprised. Perhaps Art Bell does not know that although we consider ourselves ASIAN because we are strategically located in the Southeast asian region of which our nearest neighbors are Malays, ASIA does not mean only Chinese and Japanese race of people. Then maybe it is his connotation that 'Asia' meant only our economically successful, paler brothers and he considers Malays such as Thais, Malaysians, Indonesians, and ourselves as a ' Third World ' race. Then it is 'his' ignonimity that would make a civilized person of whatever race puke. Imagine literally connecting Chinese, Koreans and Japanese to the Philippine Islands which is archipelagos away from the countries he has mentioned. I also wonder where he got the impression that we aspire to be Japanese(???) Hispanics maybe but not the Japanese. But even Hispanics today do not mind sharing their 'surnames' to their Asian brothers who they have colonized for 3 centuries.
Another sad reality that although most Filipinos working overseas are domestic helpers and prostitutes, who does he think educates the toddlers of Hong Kong, Singapore, Taiwan and Tokyo? Parents of these countries rarely have time spent with their children, leaving them to their Filipino nannies. And with regards to prostitution. Filipinos are not the only ones working as one. I HARDLY SEE FILIPINOS STARRING IN PORN MOVIES. THERE MIGHT BE A FEW FILIPINOS WE HAVEN'T SEEN , BUT MOST ARE FROM MR. ART BELL'S RACE.
He also mentioned that we have no concept of culture..no concept of asian ideas or asian philosophy. How can we demonstrate Confucianism or Taoism in a Christian nation? IS HE INFORMED THAT THE PHILIPPINES IS THE ONLY PREDOMINANTLY CHRISTIAN/CATHOLIC NATION IN ASIA ?! YOU HAVE TO USE COMMON SENSE IN A LOT OF THINGS SOMETIMES...
We do not need to create an identity for ourselves. We are who we are. Our identity stems from the anonymity we live in this world. How we contribute silent ly towards the progress of the world and not just one country. Although the Filipino blood may be tainted with malice, corruption, poverty and prostitution, it is not a perfect race... But so are the others. Maybe Mr. Art Bell needs to think about this. WE MAY NOT BE PERFECT MR. BELL BUT AT LEAST WE STILL HAVE VALUES. FOR ONE THING WE DONT PUT OUR AGING PARENTS IN NURSING HOMES BECAUSE 'THEY'RE SIMPLY OLD AND WORTHLESS'. WE DONT HAVE AS MUCH NUMBERS OF SINGLE MOTHERS WHO GET PREGNANT IN THEIR VERY EARLY TEENS AND EVENTUALLY BECOME PARASITES OF THE GOVERNMENT FOR YEARS AND YEARS. YES...WE CAME TO YOUR COUNTRY TO WORK, TO EARN DECENT MONEY (HALF OF WHICH BY THE WAY GOES TO TAXES BECAUSE THERE'S SO MANY SOCIAL PARASITES FROM YOUR RACE).AND BY THE WAY, MOST EDUCATED PEOPLE THAT I WORK WITH DONT COME FROM YOUR RACE... THEY'RE ACTUALLY IMMIGRANTS TOO. AND THOSE EDUCATED ONES DO NOT ACT LIKE YOU DO, PERHAPS BECAUSE THEY'VE REALLY BEEN WELL EDUCATED..AFTER ALL THAT'S SAID... WHO IS THE IGN ORANT ONCE AGAIN?! -
Art Bell's a puke, but the letter is a hoax.
It was proven YEARS ago to be a hoax.
Whatever makes you feel better, though.
Hello ART,
I am a FILIPINO, and you have my deepest sympathy.
Best Regards,
Jose Rizal
I just read on the site about the lost of your wife Ramona. My condolences goes out to you and yours. I listen on WSTA-1340am in St. Thomas Virgin Islands from 12am to 6am everynight for the last 18 or so years. I just love the program. I worked at the telephone company on the graveyard shift from 1990-2002 and you were my energy during my shift. Keep up the good works. God Bless
The Art Bell letter is a hoax.
That being said, he is an evil man. The way he married this other girl 3 months after his wife's death is just disgusting.
I have done some research on Art which says that he is a mason, in league with the Godless , nazi, socialistic,
one world government. He is deliberately keeping the public
from knowing the real life threatening truths that we all should be concerned with. He's in bed with the illuminati
and all those devils that would like to reduce the human
population by two thirds by any means possible. You know that this means the poor, unintelligent, morons that no one cares about. These people are so secretive and selfish
and godlike that they can make these life destroying
decisions without any concience toward the most high God
which they don't believe in to begin with. They think that they will not burn in the lowest ,hottest parts of hell for their evil deeds. They ask what is good and what is evil? God will surely show them soon. Their crys for mercy will not be heard.
Art Bell
Gods Promises
I opened up my bible and the scripture was about keeping promises.
Gods Love forevermore................................
I wanted to write something for MR. Art BELL
I listened to his radio show all the time, Art Bell was like meditation for me.
Here is the message that I got this is for the family and everyone who loved him
The message I got was keeping promises and to never stop giving, Love to each other in a really messed up world..........
The Lord is not slacking concerning his promises
2 peter 3:9
Although Mr, Art Bell,was apart of someting differant He was And will always be one of the choosen ones I believe that anything that is a gift is given, from God
May He rest in peace in heaven ................................
AMEN
