He should have listened to his kids.

There's no fool like an old fool (on the hill...)

Does UK family law really work like that? I was under the impression that she MIGHT have a shot at half of what he's earned since they were married, but not half of his total worth.

If she gets half and Paul keeps the Hofner, will the Rick end up on eBay?

I can see it now:

One slightly used Rickenbacker bass.
Includes long shiny strings.

What would the Buy-It-Now be on that baby?

If she doesn't get 50% of everything she'll be hopping mad (sorry!)

What the hell, Michael Jackson got the other half of his fortune. He'll be touring his *** off now.

And probably will not be wearing any more red "No More Land Mines" t-shirts, thankfully.

Man...how does this thread hang around and the one in the Beatles forum gets pulled?

Hope it wasn't anything I said...(just 'pullin' yer leg', Peter...)

It was my Jennifer Aniston comment, Dane.

Heather, singing a tune as she leaves the divorce court:

This boot is made for hopping, and hopping's just what I'll do. One of these days this boot is gonna' hop right over you!

Man if I was her I'd got to the bar and get legless.

Chris, Paul doesn't have to move a muscle to make more in an hour than some do in a year. I read she'll settle for 50 million pounds. Not a bad day at the office.

How long until this thread gets yanked? I think we are heading in that direction.

I think the goal is NOT to get it yanked, so take that into consideration before posting

He took a land mine to the wallet, and survived.

Ahhh, but who amongst us has the self control Steve?

50 million pounds? Share and share alike, I know, but does he think she actually contributed 50 million worth of anything to the marriage? I doubt his record sales improved just because of her. Why shouldn't Paul get a percentage of the income that her being married to him generated for her? The Rutles were right: "Gimme Some Money." But, in the spirit of keeping this thread, do you suppose Paul told Heather what 12 string George used on "Ticket to Ride?"
