This is a bit of a break from the humor and irony that this blog is supposed to convey; but I've not been posting much here -- not at all in 9 months, actually -- and this particular story really fits the "Whatever Were They Thinking" title so well that I can't resist...
Ok, you're Christie Brinkley's fourth husband. And ok... she's 52 years old. And... the 19 year old girl you had an affair with is apparently no slouch in the looks department...
But for goodness sake! You're an architect... a good one, probably... a successful one, so they say... but you're not really the single most desirable guy in this world, bud, and you were married to a supermodel you moron! You were married to one of the most single most beautiful women who will walk on this earth in your lifetime! Ask a thousand American men of your age to identify the top ten most beautiful women they've ever seen in their lifetime, and I'll bet 80% would include Christie Brinkley. Even at 52, she's still far above what you might call "a good catch".
But you risk it all for a fling, and you lose. Stupid.
