Paul McCartney-TV collector??

Has anyone heard that Beatle Paul is a TV collector? I have heard this on more than one occasion and I have seen one picture of Paul in a room full of early sets, but I don't know if they are his.

Wouldn't it be neat if we could have HIM join OUR group?

The way I see it a celebrity is as likely to have such a hobby as anyone else. If Sir Paul is thus afflicted he has my sympathy.

I wouldn't be surprised... Other celebrities including Billy Crystal are TV collectors.

Now that Sir Paul has paid her a zillion or 2, do you think she'll just GO AWAY ? Nah, we couldn't be that lucky...

Recent news stories have her hiring forensic accountants to go back over his books for more money. What a greedy bi^ch.

I was wondering, if John was the "Egg Man", and the "Walrus" was Paul; then who the hell were George and Ringo? Was one of them the Leg Man??

Paul, if you are here, or if anyone else knows, please fill me in......

Heather Mills is a gold-digging opportunistic parasite. ...which means she won't go away, just like our Labour government.

As for Sir Paul being a TV collector - fair play
