FOR WHOM THE BELL TOLLS: ART BELL SPEAKS OUT ABOUT PREMIERE RADIO AND GEORGE NOORY

With little over a month to go until Art Bell appears on his own show, DARK MATTER, on Sirius XM radio,  he is taking to Facebook again. This time may be his most detailed public comment on the state  of Coast to Coast AM and his relationship with Premiere Radio that we have heard since his October 2010 departure from the program.

Bell said this on Facebook:

I want to thank all of you for the many messages that never in a zillion Years I could answer. There is not much I can say now. However some Months ago I asked Premiere to stop my Saturday replay, I thought they had run their course and I wanted them gone for reasons I will not state here. They refused and continue to this day for reasons I still don't understand, so thank Premiere for my new show. 

The unbridled sarcasm did not stop there. 

Bell went on to write, 

I also want to thank George for signing his new LONG term contract. Without those two things I would not be going back on air. I would only add that if Premiere is going to continue my Saturday show, please tag it at the end with.."for new shows, please tune to Sirius/XM 104". 

Over the past several days, fans of Art Bell have noticed that George Noory has used several of his bumper songs that once played when Bell was the host. Even more, users of the popular website coastgab.com (not BellGab) have made a mockery of the call screening process on Coast to Coast AM. One user named Bateman got through three nights in a row, making references to Art Bell and even telling Noory and his guest that he used the fictitious product COLON BLOW. 

Last night, perhaps trying to save some face, or at least what's not plastic and fake, Noory said he emailed Art Bell within the last week. Noory also seemed to announce some sort of strange "support" for Art Bell's new show, as evidenced by the user comments on BellGab .. and now tonight, Art Bell directly addressed that very subject by saying this:

With regard to George talking about my new show last night, whatever his motives were, he took the high ground and can now pick up open lines without undue fear, good move and thanks for the plug.  George has a good trait, he is a nice guy. I would like to dispel the notion however that I picked him for the show, I did not. 

But why is Art Bell so angry? He concludes his Facebook message with  this cryptic statement--and perhaps ominous one for the suits high aloft the offices of Premiere radio:

The bone I have to pick is with Premiere and it goes well beyond Saturday replays, I have been called a serial Retiree on the Web and it annoys me because the rest of the story has yet to be told. I may well tell it soon and I think you will all be quite shocked.

Meanwhile.. there is a photo perhaps rocking what is not yet rocked in Coastland tonight. An image of George Knapp, the reporter and part time Coast host, interviewing Art Bell in the Kingdom of Nye, is getting lots of press and lots of comments. Will Knapp leave Coast and end up with Bell? Will the beans be spilled on what exactly happened to end Bell's relationship with Premiere.. will the network stop airing somewhere in time..?

All of these questions could be answered within weeks, with the culmination of events of Art Bell returning to live air ... somewhere on satellite.

The tension is evident.

Stay tuned.

I received this message today telling me to stop paying attention to the mystery Missouri priest

The email said in part:

The only reason why people have different descriptions of this priestess because he never existed, it was not a figment of imagination or mass delusion
Instead, I think they're all making this up, and they're all doing it for attention

Quite the accusation, I have to disagree with it but I will say perhaps the confusion of the situation lead to the different descriptions of the priestly man..

The Missouri Priest story turns into the Walter Matthau mystery

Someone is throwing cold water on the theory that the mystery priest in Missouri was an angelic creature.. And that person is a Jesuit priest!
Father James Martin, author and priest, told the HUFFINGTON POST:

""Most likely the priest will be identified, and people will be able to thank him," he told The Huffington Post in an emailed message Thursday. "If he's not found, that may mean he wants to remain anonymous. Could it have been an angel? There are similar 'angelic' stories in the lives of the saints, when a figure inexplicably appears and cannot be located afterwards. There are angels, of course, but we tend to ascribe to angels anonymous acts that we find incredibly loving -- when in fact human beings do incredibly loving things in hidden ways every day.""

The local Catholic diocese is trying to get to the bottom of the situation..  But so far no luck finding anyone who matches the descriptions or being at the scene..

But something even stranger about the whole affair.. The artists' rendition last night was not done based off of the artist talking to witnesses, he did it based off of media reports. But there are actually very varied reports on what this priest looked like--as a matter of fact, it's almost as though people had so many descriptions of him there had to be several priests there! Of course in the confusion of an accident, your mind perhaps races faster than you can understand.. But now this: One person is actually saying that the priest looked like a young Walter Matthau!

So this:
  VS.

How could the descriptions of this man be so wildly different from people all who say they saw him?

I stand corrected. But still won't see the new Paranormal Activity

My friend the Cinema Psycho has some corrections on my story yesterday on the new Paranormal Activity. His message to me:

While you are correct that Paranormal #5 is coming out on that date...

"The Marked Ones" is actually the name of a spinoff of the series which is coming out on Jan. 3. Apparently they're not counting it as an official entry in the series, but they're calling it "Paranormal Activity: The Marked Ones". Yes, it sounds silly to me too. From what I've read, it has an all-Latino cast and the story is only vaguely related to the other films in the series. So we're actually technically getting TWO of these movies next year. I'm sure this will cause a bit of audience confusion...

Thank you. It is confusing..
And I still say the Paranormal Activity-Athon has grown tired and pointless ..
I didn't even realize the confusion until it was pointed out to me.. Thank you.

And now an artist's sketch of the mystery Missouri priest revealed

The artist hoping that it will help identify who the mystery priest was who helped at a car accident scene..

Tonight Clyde Lewis is airing some theories on who or what it is, including the grinning bald man of recent lure I perhaps a son eater of more ancient legend..

Either way, the image has a bit on a creepy factor to it, don't you say?

Some personal thoughts on the priest who was, or maybe wasn't

The horrific crash site in Missouri

The story of the priest vanishing from a car crash scene has received national attention.. the HORROR REPORT featured this article yesterday, along with many other news sources. 

Last night George Noory dedicated a full hour of his program on Coast to Coast AM to the story.. 

And now USA TODAY is giving it some play, quoting emergency workers who are calling it a miracle.. Apparently the priest in question does not even appear in any of the 70 or so photographs of the crash site. 

Yesterday the HORROR REPORT was not quite ready to call this a story of paranormal, instead figuring that something very normal and typical may have occurred. 

Today, I am not so sure..

I was born and raised Catholic.. I cannot speak for the personal situations of persons in other religions, but I can describe the Catholic mindset. From birth through Catholic grade school, you have the catechism pounded into your brain with verbal sledgehammers and prayer punishments.. you live in fear that even uttering the word "hell" could send you into the fires of it. When high school hits, the birth of freedom sets in, and you question.. in your 20s, you still retain the residual pain of early childhood religious education, but you've moved on from it.. And by the time you're in your 30s, everything gets murky. Everything in life does, too.. The meaning of it all.. the very existence on this planet is questioned.. we don't know if we chose the right paths of career, personal lives, etc. And religion? Most 30 somethings I know have stopped going to weekly churches.. At least the 30 somethings who retain the Catholic mantle..

This story is real.. I don't know what the meaning of it is.. however the fact that a dozen people or more, including Lentz, saw and heard this priest--but yet no photographs show him--is bizarre to say the least, and miraculous to say the most..

None of us reading this were at the scene--unless there is a rescue worker following in Missouri of the HORROR REPORT--so I do not think it's fair to judge the situation according to our own personal beliefs..

The scene sounds like it was horrific, confusing, and dire..
And it is in those types of scenarios that things happen quickly.. and often the reality becomes much fuzzier..

Perhaps the key in this situation was Lentz asking the group to pray OUT LOUD. Very loud.. maybe strength in numbers brings on a miracle.. maybe a rising tide of collective consciousness lifts all boats.. 

Or maybe miracles an occur, and this is an example of one..

PARANORMAL something..

The PARANORMAL ACTIVITY franchise has a potential date from Paramount: You will get to see it, maybe, on October 24, 2014.. Just in time for Halloween--next year..

Also some other news about the newest ACTIVITY *the fifth as a matter of fact*, it got a name: 'THE MARKED ONES' is the subtitle..

I have said before that there are too many of these films to begin with.. each one gets less scary and much  less interesting than the first...

In my perfect world of movies, though, sequels would be few and far between.

But in Paramount's in this case, we're heading into 2014 with number 5 on the list.

The only saving grace it may have is that they are choosing to release it right before Halloween in October. So it may--MAY--get one week of good traction.. but nothing near what the original received..

A skinny dipping UFO becomes the talk of Naples, FL

The video is strange, indeed. An apartment complex security surveillance camera caught someone--or something--doing some late night swimming. Could it be water droplets on the camera.. or a UFO in a birthday suit enjoying the waters.. You can watch the video and decide for yourself:



MUFON does not think it's a hoax.. It's strange, but unfortunately I'm not seeing the alien nature of it. But I am seeing potential electrical charges..

WASHINGTON POST: Why no one should be surprised that Jay Leno asked President Obama “real” questions

A follow up to what I just posted before about Jay Leno.. he asked some pretty tough questions last night, as pointed out by the WASHINGTON POST (not owned by the AmazonMan)..

Isn’t it sad… comedians are forced to do the work that journalists once did? Jay Leno is doing what the POST and the TIMES and the DAILY NEWS used to do, back there in the 20th century? Back before we took everything at face value.. back when we doubted.. 

Yes, indeed.. the Leno interview surprised lots.  And probably forced NBC to scratch its head wondering how the hell Jimmy Fallon would handle such a task..

Fallon? he was forced to have a joke call from a fake “Obama.” Sorry Jimmy.. not too funny.

Props Leno. You showed us why you’re number 1.

We have been hearing a lot lately about test tube meat .. get ready for that to be pushed onto our dinner tables within ten years. The recent test trial went down, and the foodie said it tasted ALMOST like a burger.. And really, if they could perfect gum to taste like apple pie, they'll eventually get this fake hamburger correct.. But there are skeptics among us: MOTHER JONES details the test tube secret: Unborn cow blood. ON THOSE TERROR WARNINGS AND FEARS: Here is a must read for the tin foil hatters: The New York TIMES reported this on August 2, 2013: "Some analysts and Congressional officials suggested Friday that emphasizing a terrorist threat now was a good way to divert attention from the uproar over the N.S.A.'s data-collection programs, and that if it showed the intercepts had uncovered a possible plot, even better." .. Good food for great thought.

Marky Mark Wahlberg speaks truth: Justin Bieber needs to 'pull [his] trousers up' and stop smoking pot..

And what am I missing with Justin Bieber here..? He is in a club, in New York City.. at the age of 19, when the age of legalized drinking in the United States is 21? I get he goes to the UK and starts fights and tries to be 'restrained' before urinating in buckets of low wage earners, after spatting on his female fans screaming for his saliva.. But in the US? at 19? In a club.. fill me in with that I am at a loss to understand..

Update: The sun's magnetic field is about to flip..

THE NEXT HOLLYWOOD BOMB: Terrible reviews coming in for THE MILLERS.. And I have to agree, even the trailers for this film look beyond un-funny..

This is a fascinating story.. not ready to deem it paranormal, but it certainly has the strange factor associated with it.. According to KHQA, a "mysterious priest" performed a miracle at the site of a Mercedes crash in Missouri.. according to the information provided, the victim was failing to fight for life. The victim asked rescue workers to pray out loud, and according to this report, it's when a priest "appeared out of no where" .. Rescue workers said the priest prayed with the victim, and calmed her to the point where the calmness came over the rescue workers all the same.. A worker said, " I can't be for certain how it was said, but myself and another firefighter, we very plainly heard that we should remain calm, that our tools would now work and that we would get her out of that vehicle." .. and they did, as the victim is now undergoing many surgeries to repair her body after the incident. AS for the priest? No where to be founnd at this point..
