The fact that he was exceedingly wealthy and provided her with luxury and safety well the hell out of the country where people kept killing her relatives by marriage isn't enough?

Yeah, and about those cookie crumbs that are all over the medulla oblongata--they ain't mine.

They're Otis', and they aren't so much cookie crumbs as chaw.

Oh, god, no . . . Damn it, I've told him to clean out the spittoon. Martha is going to have his hide.

But, but...Onassis had no charm, Kissinger had charm. I'd do Kissinger. I'd drown Onassis. But then, I never got Prince Ranier and Grace, either. It's not like I'm thinking of physical attributes, but at least Kissinger we saw enough of on TV to have some idea of how he thought and I find intelligent men extremely sexy. Onassis and Ranier may have been/is intelligent, but it's never been demonstrated to me. Money, land, whatever, are ephemeral, brains are forever (in most cases, Alzheimer's not included).

Oh, but you are wrong. Enough money and enough land will last forever. Or at least long enough to keep you and your children and your children's children safe and secure.

And, you know, after you've had your husband's brains splattered on your suit, "safe and secure" sounds mighty fine, from all reports.

I'm too much the romantic, I guess. I might momentarily consider marriage for security, but would always wind up going with true love. Probably why I haven't remarried since my divorce.

Onassis dumped Maria Callas after she practically abandoned her career for him. Feh on him for that.
