If they do replace Arties, I think Greg Fitzsimmons has the best chemistry with the rest of the staff.

He did it for the street cred.  Now he can say he was stabbed nine times.

Ha ha I was thinking the same thing.

Artiecis a bitch. He did this for attention, like a lot of people who fuck up their own suicide attempts. If he really wanted to kill himself, there would be no "hesitation" wounds. Just stab self in the heart or neck. Or slice your neck open. How can a guy make killing oneself so complicated, unless one doesn't really want to die.

choosing a knife as your suicide weapon, and not wanting it to hurt.

Troubled comic Artie Lange landed in the hospital after stabbing himself nine times in an apparent suicide attempt, sources told The Post. Lange's frantic mom called 911 Saturday morning after she entered his Hoboken apartment and found the bloodied funnyman, a law-enforcement source said. Lange sustained six "hesitation wounds" and three deep plunges. A source close to Lange's management team confirmed that the Howard Stern sidekick stabbed himself, adding that his mother had come to visit him that day to drop off food. Surgeons managed to save Lange despite heavy bleeding. "We all have our demons," Stern said on-air this week, referring to Lange's past battles with addiction. "Artie has given this show tremendous moments of great comedy. He's a tremendous contributor. He is a good man. Don't forget how great he is."

This is really sad.
For me, Artie has been the bright spot of the show for the last several years.
His characters and one liners are my favorite parts of the show. (His "guy that laughs at everything" character had me in tears) When he was off last week I thought he was just goofing off and not coming to work again.
Had no idea that it was anything this serious! Hopefully he'll take the time off that he needs and gets better.
****On a selfish note, PLEASE don't bring Martling back! F Jackie

            poor artie he failed at something else, next time use a gun.
