It's ALL about the money!

To erase any doubts, the reason a significantly younger woman marries Red Sox owner John Henry is NOT because he is a charming romantic. From his Twitter page we get this play-by-play of the romantic glow of the Henry honeymoon. No, this is not from the Onion.

Just landed in Dakar. Taking the Red Sox flag through Africa. A plane full of Red Sox hats!

Spent the afternoon at Nelson Mandela's cell block with one of his fellow prisoners. Incredible stories of courage and unfathomable honor.

27 years in a tiny cell for African freedom. Robben Island...penguins cavorting this afternoon where great men labored in a lime quarry.

Editor's note: the "reason for this trip" is a meeting with Tutu to discuss HIV? Is there a less romantic honeymoon activity than discussing HIV with a religious person?
