Is The Sound Of Air Rushing In! OK. Now that many of you have discussed the 'generational difference', I'd like to say "The age difference Is Not Important." Yes, a 21 year old has much less life experience than does a 58 year old (and he is old enough to be her Grandfather). But I am compelled to write that a 21 year old is not necessarily an air head compared to the elder! I know that I was no air head when I shared my time with gentlemen ~ twice my age, and I assure you these boyfriends would not have wasted their time with me based solely on my physical appearance or on my sexual prowess. I enjoyed that phase of my life to a certain extent. - The restlessness I came to know as a result of not spending time with men closer to my age, men with whom I naturally had much in common just because we grew up in the same generation with similar social conditioning, prompted me to 'move on'; that is back to having 'fun' again and enjoying the freedom to act my age. Every one has their own threshold of comfort when faced with decisions regarding the age difference that they are willing to accept in their personal love life. The fact that Mr. Ferry is married bothers me much more than the age difference. He willfully engaged in a legal contract with Lucy Ferry. Had he terminated this contract PRIOR to moving on, I'd not be disappointed with him. With respect to Ms. Turner, she knows he is married, and I know I have always had enough self-respect that I have Always refused to entertain any idea of romantic or sexual involvement with any married man (and I could enumerate the various reasons why I would not waste my time a someone who is already entangled). It does take two to tango! I credit Lucy Ferry for having the wisdom and courage to take the first step toward terminating her marriage contract. I believe the Ferrys had maintain their marriage for appearance sake and for their children's sake, and none of us are qualified to judge the wisdom nor the validity of their mutual understanding and agreement of this arrangement. Even though they maintained a 'marriage of convenience', the fact that Lucy Ferry had to go 'public' with news of an impending split to get the process started (and the grace to not mention a possible co-respondent in any forthcoming divorce suit) - that Mr. Ferry was unable or unwilling to take the responsibility, to step up to the line and do what any man of true honor would have naturally done, which would have been to dissolve his legal obligation to Mrs. Ferry before the situation got out of hand - speaks volumes about Ferry's disappointing, disgraceful behavior. To this I add, I am really ANGRY!!! Because this morning I read a private email from one of our most respected and warm hearted contributors telling me she has decided to no longer follow Bryan Ferry and his music because of this sordid affair. She is moving on, and I will very much miss her intelligent input - it had always been fair and positive. Avalon List will suffer. And, too, Ferry's record sales will be fewer, at least by one unit, in the future. Publicity indeed is a double edged sword!

I don't know who this list member is, but I would suggest that there are two sides to every story, and you can't really judge someone until you've walked in their shoes. This is not to say that I think all of this news is fine and dandy; but we're all human and we all make mistakes. Or, as Tennessee Williams wrote in _Sweet Bird of Youth_: "I don't ask for your pity, but just for your understanding-not even that, no.

I must admit I was disappointed when I heard the news of Bryan and Lucy splitting up and again when I heard the Katie news. However, I have resolved to reserve judgement until everything settles down and comes out in the wash. I was also disappointed to hear that one of our members has left. I can understand this, but who knows what goes on in anyone's personal life. We should be glad he's not a 'Gary Glitter' sort of person. I know Katie is only 21, but it's hardly the same. God....she's 10 years younger than me - boy, do I feel old!!!!!!! Anyway, I have a completely unrelated question. Whilst in LA recently I was in a K-Mart store (as you do...) and I heard 'More Than This' being played in the store. However, it was not our Bryan's version - it was a woman singing. Any ideas who it is? I didn't know this song had been covered.

Yes there are always at least two sides to every story. And yes, one should not judge another until they have walked in their shoes. Which is exactly why I have been writing the posts that I have: I have learned some very cold hard truths the painful way, from mistakes I have made in my past, the very same mistakes that Ferry appears to be making now. I was the cheater and Everyone paid dearly in terms of emotional anguish, and the personal trauma deeply affected how each party reacts, yet even today, to life situations. Yes I have very well defined and well thought out opinions concerning human conduct in these areas. Sadly, not all humans learn from their mistakes. Some humans don't even recognize their errors - they are the sociopaths among us. Jonathan wrote: "This is without a doubt the most ridiculous nonsense I have ever heard.

You must lead a very sheltered life, Jonathan, if you truly believe my post was 'the most ridiculous nonsense I have ever heard'. And, why would you think to imagine that Bryan Ferry would do anything 'to appease an overly sensitive fan' let alone calling off an affair? No one has made any suggestion or illusion to Ferry calling it off - that is until you mentioned it! Yes Brian Ferry and Katie Turner are 'grown up enough to make their own decisions'. They will, of course, have to sleep in the bed they make together. And whom are you indicating is not acting 'grown up enough to let them without this kind of utter nonsense.'? If you are referring to me, as your post seems to indicate, you have betrayed your lack of understanding with respect to the dynamics of which I have written, as well as your superficial understanding of humans and their condition. Are we even, now? I'm immature, and you are fill in the blank.

Now could ya tell me how many of you are still with the Very Young Girl extolled in your posts? Also could ya tell me if Forbidden Love (being married to someone else) contributes to the invigoration?

I've had a couple of suggestions but would have to hear the covers to see which one it was. It was quite good actually - - and I say that as someone who doesn't really like female singers. Perhaps it was just nostalgia for the original version that made me like it? I was on an Elvis holiday and hadn't listened to BF for 3 weeeks! Who knows.

I must admit I was disappointed when I heard the news of Bryan and Lucy splitting up and again when I heard the Katie news. However, I have resolved to reserve judgement until everything settles down and comes out in the wash. I was also disappointed to hear that one of our members has left. I can understand this, but who knows what goes on in anyone's personal life. We should be glad he's not a 'Gary Glitter' sort of person. I know Katie is only 21, but it's hardly the same. God....she's 10 years younger than me - boy, do I feel old!!!!!!! Anyway, I have a completely unrelated question. Whilst in LA recently I was in a K-Mart store (as you do...) and I heard 'More Than This' being played in the store. However, it was not our Bryan's version - it was a woman singing. Any ideas who it is? I didn't know this song had been covered.

I might could understand if this individual was a close friend of Lucy's, Bryan's or the family's and had some personal insight to the situation... but relying on the media for a judgement call in this split seems a bit unfair. Of course, there was no mention of how this individual came to her decision, so perhaps she is in the *inner circle*. If not, then me thinks she's in the *Outer Limits*!
