Artie Lange calls in sick week two: the saga continues


Howard Stern Show fans who tuned in to hear the return of Artie Lange on Monday morning were treated to the news that the controversy-embroiled comedian would be missing work once again.  Howard Stern started out Monday morning's show with the announcement that Artie Lange had sent yet another cryptic text message announcing that he was not coming in to the Sirius XM studios.

"I love Artie, but boy he's got a lot of issues.  I don't know what's going on--and I kind of don't want to know what's going on.
 
Howard Stern didn't read Artie Lange's text message to the Howard Stern Show audience stating that he wasn't sure if the message was intended to be shared with listeners, but Stern teased his audience by passing the text message to co-host Robin Quivers who responded "I thought he was being given something to prevent that."
 
Prevent what?  A drug relapse?  Violent, disabling depression? 

Howard Stern Show listeners called in to ask Howard Stern to read Artie Lange's brief text message, but Stern responded that Artie Lange will come in to the studio "eventually" and that that's "Artie's story to tell."

Eventually, Howard Stern will have to let the the Baby Gorilla out of the bag.
