    Art Clokey, the creator of the whimsical clay figure Gumby, died in his sleep Friday at his home in Los Osos, Calif., after battling repeated bladder infections, his son Joseph said. He was 88.

    For all those who don't know Gumby and I are friends and have been for 20 years. He is doing fine, he got himself reinstated so that he could have his family back and it has been a hell of a ride, and I mean it has not been fun but he loves his family and wants to keep them in his life. I asked him the other day if he had been here and he said no not for awhile he told his wife he would not frequent this site.

    So he is alive, he is well as can be considering the circumstance !
