That just ain’t fair, they get McCartney and I get the Hulkster?
McCartney, 65, posed for a photograph for the People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) organization accompanied by the words: “I am Paul McCartney and I am a vegetarian”. It also features the quote: “Many years ago, I was fishing, and as I was reeling in the poor fish, I realized, ‘I am killing him — all for the passing pleasure it brings me.’
Jesus, Paul – but did you ever contemplate the impact of hearing “Say Say Say” twice in an hour, on grainy AM radio?
It comes with being an “A-Lister” – the national podium wherein no sound byte is ever discarded, and a “cause celebre” is required to expose your social conscience, after lining your pockets with coin from commoners. We expect it nowadays, some esoteric cause swathed in flash bulbs, Rolex’s, and toy poodles – destined to make us choke on our porridge.

The closest I got to a celebrity was guiding Clint Eastwood’s mom on Fall River. Clint owned the old Crosby Ranch on Rising River, and I had to ask – “Mizz Eastwood, how come you’re fishing here, Clint has all the good stuff under armed guard!”
“I don’t know, he doesn’t let me fish there,” was her response. I found out shortly that Clint was smarter than me, as I’m trying to pry fish out of her grip to release them, and she’s trying to kill them with a pipe wrench.
Nothing wrong with quirks, Lord knows I have my share..

Paul was baited and hooked with his latest matrimonial venture. Maybe he now feels like a duped fish, hence the sudden empathy.
BTW – I got kicked out of the Trout Underground today, so thought I’d give this bar a shot. ‘Slike I told Tom when I left, “I’ve been kicked outa better joints than this.” Anyway, pretty nice place you got here.
You’re welcome, but we never throw anyone out – we’ll tolerate you until you’re either arrested or dead.

Heh. His wife took him for a pretty good ride. I bet he was crying more and more with each new fake leg she had made to participate on dancing with the stars!
I didn’t realize you COULD get kicked out of the Trout Underground…

Anyone who doubts this need only read the comments posted here – plenty of potential for both.
