If she goes for big bucks in the divorce courts, Paul might end up losing an arm and a leg, and finally be able to empathise with her disability.
If Paul McCartney is a “has been”, then Jesus, make a me a has-been too! He’s a freaking billionaire!
No, there’s a difference between “has been” and “legend.”
Won’t somebody please think of the child?
The headlines are bleating “McCartney stands to lose quarter of fortune” now. So what? It’s a huge hit, but he’ll still have a billion left or something.
Bet he’ll insist on a prenup next time, though.
Obviously, he isn’t. I don’t get these guys who father children in their 50s and on up. They are deliberately creating a person who will lose their father at a young age. Seems awfully selfish to me.
One thing I’ve always liked about Paul was that he was the eternal optimist. It’s sad that the bubble has been burst. He’s a '60s kind of guy in a New Millennium kind of world. That said, I don’t think she’s going to stick it to him financially. She seems, to me anyway, like a pretty straight shooter. (Though divorce can do strange and ugly things to people.)
Are you alright?

I meant, talent-wise. And YES, I know that making money is a talent. I meant musical talent. And YES I know making money off of bad music is a talent. I meant GOOD music wise. And YES, I know that any music that makes money is good music. I meant the kind of music that doesn’t make you retch. And YES, I know that you will not retch if you make money off of a crap song.
I meant the people listening to it, not the author of it.

Lord, the ads are for Linda McCartney ringtones!
I didn’t know that Sir Paul and Heather had spawned. Oh, deary me.
I also don’t buy the medie story–this is a guy who is rabid about his privacy, waaaay up there in Scotland somewhere (isn’t he?). I know he’s a legend and all, but something tells me the hords have dried up just a wee, and he is not hounded into running through train stations, now. Plus, he has the money to buy privacy and security.
Paul, while incredibly talented/possible genuis, was my least favorite Beatle. Just a comment.
As to us getting our nose out of their business–it’s published information. We are not to discuss events of celebrities? Dia knows I hate the paparozzi (sp?), and the press can be intrusive, but a divorce decree is public. We’re not wondering what kind of undies the two of them wear. :rolleyes:
Well, yeah, his latest efforts have sucked, but I still wouldn’t call him a “has been”.
As for baby Beatrice, I wouldn’t worry about her-say what you will about Paul, he’s always been a devoted dad, by most accounts.
*Life is very short and there’s no time
for fussing and fighting, my friend
I have always thought that it’s a crime
So I will ask you once again
Try to see it my way
Only time will tell if I am right or I am wrong
While you see it your way
There’s a chance that we might fall apart before too long
We can work it out
We can work it out *
Paul is now looking forward of course, so ladies of a certain age:
Send him a postcard, drop him a line stating point of view.
Indicate precisely what you mean to say, he’s sincerely wasting away.
OK, how about “rich person that has only churned out out pure-dee garbage for the last 35 years.” Better?
