Manolo says, just because you are repulsive does not mean you cannot catch the beautiful girl. It is all the matter of the bait you are using.

Who ARE those women?
March 6th, 2006 at 12:19 pm
They are the wives!

Hey, that top pic is Salman Rushdie. I heard him speak not long ago - he may be no George Clooney at first glance (and really, who is?), but he is one of the most brilliant, articulate and engaging speakers I’ve ever heard.
And I’m pretty sure he was wearing Prada shoes …

Yes, the Salman Rushdie has MUCH talent, not always wellspent, but always present. But the tinka, although tolerant of surprising couples, inadvertently laughed out loud when she saw the wedding photo of the Padma and the Salman in the paper.

The other, it is of Murdoch (80ish) and wife Wendi (30ish).

Who says that the money, it cannot buy the love?
March 6th, 2006 at 9:20 pm
Ugh. I know that Murdoch is a billionaire but holy mother of God…ooh. Yuck. Do you think the Wendi is counting the days down to her inheritance? Oh, the many beautiful shoes she will buy to dance on the Murdoch’s grave.

Are there many of the 80 year old retired factory workers with the beautiful 30 year old wives?

padma is hot hot hot

The young lovelies just make their husbands look older.

Hear hear Lara!

Oh come now, you know those women married those guys for their brains and business acumen, respectively. Is it so much of a stretch to believe that strikingly beautiful women would like intelligent dinner conversation? No, no it’s not.
/kidding, of course it is.

The tinka is sure that the ladies here are clever. Crazy, yes, but clever too. But there are many brilliant men, who are also more traditionally, ahem, attractive than the Salman and the Murdoch. But the Wendi, she is twice as crazy as the Padma.

The only problem with the argument that the beautiful ladies might enjoy intellectual conversation is that I am a beautiful young lady who enjoys intellectual conversation, but I don’t want to marry someone older than my father. Though, when people ask me what I want to do after I finish the college, I do frequently reply “I’m looking into the trophy-wife option”.

Whatever happened to the half his age plus seven years rule?

Thank goodness I am a man. While, er, pretty ( yes, wish I were handsome - but god made me more young rob lowe than square-jawed handsome) ,(and svelte and muscular- thus far) I can only go up in value as I acquire more property, knowledge and experience. After seeing these pictures I wonder why I continue to work out. (oh that’s right- vanity).
