"Art's pretty smart; even if he does "love" her, didn't he anticipate the negative reaction? I mean, a Filipino woman?"




I never thought I would be defending Art Bell, but leave his marriage alone.

Either you trust him or you don't.

Don't let the race or age of his wife turn you against him.

Oh please. Were I to court (nevermind MARRY) a 19-21 year old while I am 42... you would rip me to shreds.

Double standards are pretty in the morning light.

Yeah, I do agree. Although I do have reservations and questions as you can see from my previous posts, I'm willing to see where this ends up, it is his life after all. Of course, this was like in the early 20th Century so things were a bit different then, I had a great-great uncle who came over from the Jewish part of Russia. He was a concert level violinist and madea somewhat famous name for himself and was charged with bigamy by his wife but he was acquitted (or the charges were dropped) and they ended up divorced. When he was 45 or so, he settled into a Jewish section of New York City and much like in "Fiddler on the Roof," the local lady matchmaker (A big Jewish custom) matched him up with a 16, 17 or 18 (she was around that age) girl to marry and they lived happily ever after. I guess with this in my family history, I'm willing to keep an open enough mind to see what happens but there are other times I'm scratching my head. I'm more perplexed at him moving to the Phillipines though, maybe Stan Deyo told him it will be a safe place when 2012 hits or something. B-)
