I just got off the phone with Teddy. He was very candid about his current situation with Artie and allowed me to ask anything I wanted to know. I didn’t have a tape recorder handy but I tried taking some notes.

Stay Tuned for the write-up!!

About two and a half hours into the show today Artie commented that he was still having trouble staying awake during the show. Howard told Artie he could take a power nap. Will brought in an inflatable bed for him to sleep in. Artie expressed concern that he wouldn’t be able to sleep with Carly Simon, “I don’t know if i can go to sleep with her making all that racket”. After some debate of sleeping arrangements Artie opted for the green room.

The culprit? Lately he has been eating a bagel, breakfast burrito and cookies as well as his Hawaiian punch.

**Update**

Artie wound up sleeping through the entire show!

Sadly I missed the discussion yesterday about Artie’s man cave but thankfully we have Mark’s Figgin.

As previously reported Artie had a man cave constructed [guesstimated between 80-100K] for the TV show “Man Caves” on the DIY Network hosted by Tony Siragusa. For the show Artie’s mom and sister showed up and Artie need two tool belts strapped together for him to wear it.

Artie had his man cave set up in the top floor of his house with an elevator access for his mom [awww]. The room is split by two stairs . In one half of the room is a 60 inch TV. The centerpiece of the room is a table that you can put a beer keg directly into. A couch goes around the room. He has a terrace up there with a refrigerator.

The other side of the room has a pool table with wall mount cue racks and another 60 inch flat screen. There is another room with a 6 person Borgata poker table with professional chips. The room was already put to use with a poker game including cocktail waitresses and a dealer from the Borgata. Somewhere in the room there is a shelf with a TV that pops up [button-activated] and has a sports ticker running continuously.
