I'm not a big Nascar fan, but 7 years of marriage for $15.3 million isn't bad money if you can get it.

Celebrities and their marriages have always amazed me. Why in THE WORLD someone would, after losing millions of dollars and having to sell off tangible assets like homes and cars to escape a poorly-thought out marriage would even DREAM about re-marrying is beyond my capacity to explain.

If, in another life, some chippy pulled that with ME, the last thing any future woman in my life would ever hear is the word "marriage". If SHE brought it up, she'd be swiftly seeking newer, more gullible companionship, whilst I happily called out, "NEXT!!"

I've seen friends have their very lives and souls peeled to strips by divorce. I've seen both males AND females financially destroyed by it, and permanently removed from their children because of it. I am at a complete loss to explain why the rich and famous seem to regard it with so little concern. I guess Mark Twain was right.

They have a nice healthy nest egg, Im sure. :-)

That's what can happen if parents support their kids at an early age and let 'em race, Legally, of course.

I hate seeing driving like this crap they sell for movies lately, influencing young folks , away from safety first. Thrills kill... and so does speed.

Jeff blamed the divorce on their move to Florida and the ensuing isolation; I'd wager that the exodus was advised by their financial planner (Florida has no state income taxes (that's the reason Rush established the "Southern Command", right?)). It's sad that a (presumably) monetary consideration would lead to the dissolution of a union blessed by God (hey, if they got married in the South, it was a Real wedding).

In any case, each has a ton of money, so they can find happiness wherever it may lie. Let's just be thankful that they don't have kids to wreck.

Great news for Jeff. Now he can pursue that relationship with Chocalate Myers.

Gordon already has another one who looks just like Brooke, only with bigger hooters. The man knows what he likes.
