    I don't care how much money someone has, I seriously don't think I could touch let alone consummate with something that old.

    Personality aside, let me just be clear:


    Billy Joel's music is fucking horrid.

    I think the gold digger younger wife and the power guy is a fair trade really. He gets to enjoy her nubile flesh while she gets to spend his money.

    It's been that way for centuries!

    I just wish I could gently point out to Billy Joel that his next wife COULD be an age appropriate woman. And perhaps she might even be pretty, smart, nice and not marrying him for his money? I know several lovely ladies of that ilk in New York.


    What a concept eh?

    There is something incredibly frightening about gold digging women like her. I mean, you have to be really really fucked up in the head to marry someone 33 years older than you. Just knowing that behind the facade of this cute 27 year old girl lies the mind of a cold psycho bitch is enough to make me shiver.
