CSIDU

Cidu Bill on Mar 29th 2009

Okay, that acronym doesn’t really work, does it?

Anyway, I read that actress Marg Helgenberger is divorcing her husband of 18 years and is seeking spousal support. Helgenberger has co-starred on the highly-rated CSI for the past 9 years and now that William Petersen is gone, she’s presuambly the best-paid cast member by far.

Can anybody explain to me the concept of spousal support — in 2009 — for a woman who is earning, and is continuing to earn, a monstrous salary?

Please don’t respond just to agree that this seems weird: there’s no sport in shooting fish in a barrel. I’d like to hear from people who can explain this.
