Hate To Go Out On A Limb Here...
But McCartney looks set to lose an arm and a leg on his divorce from Heather Mills.
Given that estimates suggest he may lose as much as a quarter of his fortune in the proceedings, McCartney may find that all he REALLY needs is a good divorce lawyer!
Hope he's not stumped finding one.
On a mildly serious note, it's interesting that he didn't want to sign a pre-nup because it wasn't "romantic." Didn't it ever occur to him that, at his age -- and with four grown children -- the pre-nup isn't about him: It's about keeping his estate stable for the children he raised with Linda McCartney?
Romance doesn't factor into it, mate!
UPDATE: Janet -- one of my dearest friends, longest-suffering pun-victim and HUGEST Fab Four fan -- sends the following:
"Here are some other good ones floating around the Beatles boards:
She’s Leaving Home
Got to Get You Out of My Life
I Buried Paul (After she gets his money)
Freedom!
Heather’s Grabby Road"
I really like "Got to Get You Out of My Life"! However, I think I would have gone with "I Buried Paul (Under an Avalanche of Depositions)"
UPDATE II: The New York Post's cartoonist Sean Delonas weighs in.
