This is too weird.
Heartbreak is a strange thing, I guess.

Says he's moving to the Phillipines. Oh boy.
I am listening to him now. Ramona Bell just passed away suddenly in January of this year. I don't think Art is thinking straight.
hmmmm.. best wishes.

Good luck to him.
From what I've seen, young women who marry older men tend to do it either for the money or because of the money. Take the money away and suddenly they find other men to interest them.
But occassionally you see a couple with a significant age separation that appears honest and sincere. But in those cases, the women tend to be looking for the father figure, and the men tend to be young at heart and in mind.
(Sincere relationships are really easy to tell from insincere ones, unless you're the one who has been caught.)
I guess folks handle grief differently. What's Art Bell not in Pahrump? Hard to fathom.
I can't say how creepy that is. The dirt over his wife's grave hasn't settled yet and he's getting remarried? Maybe all the years of talking about shadow-people, little green men, and tinfoil conspiracies has finally gotten to him.
Or maybe he's serious. Who the hell knows.
January 5, 2006 - Romona dies.
February 18, 2006 - Art says he misses human companionship.
Now he's married again and moving to Manilla?
May God bless them with a long and wonderful marriage.
If he's happy, who cares about the rest?
Meanwhile I'll tune out until he stops dancing on the sofa -- may take a few months.
Hmmmm.
Art Bell's strange universe

I like Art Bell, too, but this is almost weirder to me than any of the UFO stuff. How can he forget the love of his life so quickly? It's creepy.
I think it was just last night that George Noory said he tried to get a hold of Art but couldn't. Why wouldn't he invite Noory to the wedding, or at the very least let him know he was getting married? I wonder if Art went off the deep end.
As an ex-Sailor who's been to the PI and around Filipinos a lot, my impression is that while PI women marry American men for finances, they're usually lifelong loyal wives. So if you can stand the fact that she may not really love you for you, hey, more than likely it'll last a lifetime and she'll at least probably be good to you. I knew a lot of guys in the Navy that married Filipinos, and most were older guys (not all), none of them model-handsome. The wives were always younger and prettier. But the PI wives were also less likely to screw around on them once we went to sea. So I've got mixed feelings about this.
