Bill: I don't think he is amoral. I don't think he completely lacks sense. But unless you think he is sociopathic, then you have to assume that he has <I>somewhat</I> normal emotions. If you can accept that possibility, then you should also be able to accept that he must still be hurting big time over his loss. When people are hurting badly, they do weird stuff to ease the pain. Some do drugs or drink, and some rush to replace the loss. <BR/><BR/>Now, Bill's gonna jump all over me for this, I'm sure. But I think Art is a reasonably normal person. In fact, I think the argument could be made that this move of his is more evidence of <I>normal</I> human emotions than anything else. I mean, think about it. When your "friends" are the likes of those <BR/>of the old 3840 crowd, where would *you* turn for emotional support? Art is a guy that has mistaken abusive relationships for friendships, evidently for a lot longer than I have known him. But I never got the impression that his relationship with Ramona was abusive at all, in either direction. So if <BR/>that were the only healthy relationship that I had in my life, then I might be in a damn hurry to replace it too. <BR/><BR/>And can you think of an easier way to fool yourself into thinking you've done just that, than to go take a bride that wants nothing more than to tell you everything that you want to hear?<BR/><BR/>So, as disgusted as I am by this news (and I <B>am</B> disgusted), I have to cut the guy some slack. I am going through a VERY painful transition in my life right now, and I'm hurting continuously. And there are not very many things I can think of that I wouldn't consider to relieve the pain, if I had the resources. <BR/><BR/>Those of you that have been paying attention at all should know that this "change" is going to be short-lived. He's just self-medicating himself with a new woman to ease the pain, the same way many of us find other ways to do. We're all messed up human beings, capable of some really weird sh*t. <BR/><BR/>73 ..

It does seem pretty damn pathetic that he'd basically bought a wife from abroad. Lets not kid anyone, that's basically what he's claiming to have done. The Philippines is quite a hot spot for gold digging, poor pinays looking for rich Americans to pull them out of their poverty.
