I think the point is, like CE alludes to, is that you can scoop Paris' brain out with an ice cream spoon and replace it with a rock - it's not her head that's her fortune, its the other bits.

Gravy, I assume by 'other bits', you mean the little slip of paper that says she's the daughter of a hotel magnate?

Well, the geezer had to work a lifetime for his fortune. All Paris needed was fifteen minutes and a movie camera.

I'm rich, good looking, fit and very active domestically!! May your future be blessed with many, many trades that make you incremental amounts of small fortunes, and the occasional biggie that makes you the envy of your mates!!!!!

You're right! But I don't feel like tea, and I don't feel like coffee. Perhaps Milo?
