Fool On The Hill

Samuel Johnson: "Remarriage is the triumph of hope over experience."

To wit:

Paul McCartney and girlfriend Nancy Shevell are reportedly planning to marry.

The couple, who have been seen in public together regularly for the past year, are now legally allowed to marry after Shevell's divorce from lawyer Bruce Blakeman was finalized in December.


McCartney's last marriage didn't end well either, lasting only 6 years, the last two of which were spent separated. Heather Mills received £24.3 million (roughly $50 million) in a divorce settlement, plus £35,000/year ($70,000) for their daughter Beatrice, plus the girl's nanny and school fees. When Mills heard the ruling, she poured a jug of water over the head of McCartney's lawyer, declaring, "I'm not a loser."

By the way, this was 10 months ago.
