Then why this obsession with "it won't be fartman"?

Same here.  I think a.f.h-s is plenty, but it hardly matters to me.

 >what exactly are you planning to talke about between now and then?

Well, on THIS newsgroup...  HOWARD STERN!

 >you've obviously got none to give here (clues, that is) 
Ha!  Thanks...

It is "significant" in that FARTMAN is obviously VERY real.
What the hell *else* are they supposed to call the movie?

HUH???  Howard Stern is OBVIOUSLY vastly superior to this idiotic "joe" 
you seem incapable of shutting up about!   The fact is that Howard is 
a major national TV, radio, (soon movie) *STAR*, and NOBODY has ever 
even heard of your pathetic might-as-well-be-non-existant "joe"...

 >i was planning to call joe next time he has a viewer call-in 
 >show and ask him what he thought of howard stern.  

FANTASTIC!!!  Let me congratulate you on joining the Stern phone brigade!
If what you say is correct, then this guy is probably just a moronic
Stern rip-off and he would therefore say he's "never seen" Howard's show.

 >joe does read viewer mail 
Who gives a rats ass what your stupid "joe" does!

 >if you want to write him on captain janks related themes 

Ha!!  No thanks, I have a life...

 >and joe reads the letter on the air i'll tell you what he said.

Thanks for the offer, but WHY would I care about what some dumb jerk reads 
in his "basement"?  This guy is SO lame he has to rip-off both Stern AND
Wayne's World...  That must be a new low in idiocy...

 >>It was the WORST.  Really stupid and boring.  The costume looked moronic.

I would have to agree with that.  Jackie, Fred, Elephant Boy, and the 
rest were somewhat funny... but that was far overshadowed by first the
TERRIBLE droning performance of whatsisname West, and that TERRIBLE
totally stupid looking fartman costume.

 >i also thought that part about fartman barbequing a chicken strictly 
 >on the force of his flatulence was funny.  

Eh... that could not save the whole sketch.  Everything was MUCH better MTV.

 >and i thought that the takeoff on the batman show (which displayed words

With Mr. batman right there, it wasn't really all that "clever".
I may have gotten a couple laughts out of that though...

 >maybe these points were too subtle for you.  
Ha!  You're too much...  

 >i never said that "everything" else in the show was terrible.

You seem to always be complaining about something, and talking 
about your always pathetic favorite out of place topic.

 >where i differ in my view of stern is that while i think
 >he's funny, intelligent, and talented 
Since when?

 >i *don't* view him as god, as some readers of this newsgroup do.
Well, that's their problem.

 >thought that his last letterman appearance was pretty good 

It was great!   He is just about always great on Dave's show.
Why else do you think he has been on so many times?

 >on the tonight show appearance he came across like a geek in my opinion,

Oh, please!  He was FANTASTIC!  Howard totally stole the show and was
completely hilarious.  How could that possibly make one a "geek", as 
you oh so eloquently put it...?

 >his insert-your-favorite-celebribrity-name insults were starting to 
 >get a bit redundant

"favorite-celebrity"??  Didn't you SEE the interview?  He was talking
about those two disgusting loads Ed and Doc, plus towards the end he
also mentioned Assenio.  Every one of those jerks deserved everything
Howard said about them!  (and MORE)  Are *those* the sort of people
that YOU consider "favorite celebrities"?  Phew, that is pretty sad!

 >i felt that leno scored on him with some funny comeback lines that 
 >even had stern laughing.  
He got in one or two, what is wrong with that?   Leno was certainly
nowhere near as good at that as Dave Letterman is of course...

 >the one that immediately comes to mind is when (i think) stern said to

 >be on a lot sooner than he would showing stupid fartman clips.

Yea, that is about what he said.  It was funny.  What of it?

 >>FORTUNATELY on his MTV appearance, Fartman looked very GOOD.
 >>The movie would already seem to be off on the right track.
 >based on a costume i don't think you're in a position to
 >know anything about the status of the movie.

WRONG.  I am best able to "know" about the status of the movie because
Howard talks about it on the radio, BUT actually seeing the costume
said a lot since it obviously not the thing we saw on the TV show.
That is VERY much on the "right track".
