Hi Art :),
George Carlin's death was indeed a tragic loss. He will be greatly missed. I am hoping to hear more from you very soon regarding your future plans. As always, I wish you, Airyn, and Asia the very best.

Hi Art,

Indeed a great comedian is gone. Looking forward to news from you as soon as you can talk about it.

Hi Art, what a loss...we are in the ORR tonight listening to the interview you did with him on November 10, 1999. Looking forward to hearing more from the Bell family.

I thought today about your interview with George and was so glad Shirley made it available... I heard it live those many years ago and thought how totally great it was to have you two on the air, together.

Thanks for checking in with us on this sad day.

Hi Art,

Yes, he used his time well. He did more than entertain, he made people think.

He was one of us, not one of "them".

Much like yourself, Art.

Art, you're still here *with all of us* and we miss you.

Blessings to you, Airyn and sweet baby Asia.

Hey, Art. Thanks for being here with us to mark the passing of George Carlin. It is a hurtful thing to lose him, as we need his voice more than ever in this Quickening. I guess he stayed as long as he was able - and stayed true to his vision of where he thought we should be heading.

We need you more than ever, my friend. To help us bridge this gap and to leap into the very heart of the 21st Century.

Very glad all is well with the Bell family. Hugs for Airyn and Asia.

Hi Art. Thanks for calling Noory about the interview. It was such a good interview, and it made me sad when he said he wanted to live to 94.And how his Uncle was doing push-ups at 90! He was such an honest, forthright man, he really stuck to his guns when he believed in something. His time was too short, we need men like him, especially the way things are right now. Well, Thanks again for the suggestion to Noory. Oh, and I hope all is well with Airyn's family with that mess in Manila right now. God Bless, and take care.

I doubt there will ever be the likes of another George Carlin. He was a comedic genius.

we're all going to miss George dearly. let's all do our part and remake our country into something that will keep Mr. Carlin from rolling around too much in his grave.

you were the best, George!

It was bittersweet listening to your interview with George Carlin last night Art, what strikes me the most is your rapport with him, like two old friends, felt like I was eavesdropping. I am so glad I have the show to listen to from time to time and actually listened a couple of months ago.

Bye Beorge....Last interview

Post by MAD » 06-24-2008 10:17 PM

Art, I enjoyed hearing your interview with George, again. Such banter, just two guys having a chat. Great listening.

Here is a treat, George Carlin's possible last interview. We honor the man, by remembering him and enjoying what he gives so generously......himself.

The people we meet are in our lives for a reason. Here is a fella, doing what he enjoys such as writing and performing,and loving family, entering his seventies.........hint hint!

Wonder what Mr. Carlin thought about retirement?

Truth be told I never listened to George Carlin much. That's not to say that that I deeply respected the man. It takes someone extremely special to call "BullSh*t" on the entire world. I think George said exactly what a lot of us feel but are too chickensh*t to express ourselves. He will be truly missed by everyone and the world will never see another like him. Godspeed Mr. Carlin.
