Not Politically Correct...

...or justifiably uttered in any kind of public forum, but this is what popped into my mind yesterday...

I saw an AP headline that read "8 year old Saudi bride divorces 50 year old husband." The first thought I had was how sick that an 8 year old would be married off to anyone, let alone an old man. My second thought was surprise that somehow, someway divorce would even be possible for the girl. Sadly, this was followed by the flawed notion that the girl just didn't give the relationship enough time.

I'm sure this says something about me but whatever it is, I'm probably better off not knowing.
