Yes I would, if I only could, I surely would”

I wonder which one Paul was?

He was trying to take the diamonds off the soles of her shooes

The police didn’t originally believe she was a disorderly person, but then she started quoting her song lyrics.

It’s distressing to hear about this kind of thing, no matter who it involves. I hope they work things out.

TPMZ has obtained a partial cell phone transcript of the argument:

Paul:
“I am just a poor boy.
Though my story’s seldom told,
Still, a man hears what he wants to hear
And disregards the rest”

Edie:
“I’m not aware of too many things
I know what I know, if you know what I mean
What I am is what I am
Are you what you are or what?”

Paul:
“I am leaving, I am leaving
But the fighter still remains”

So, Paul, are you what you are, or what?

And yet, you commented. And read it.

I agree that if TPM goes TMZ, I’m outta here, but this one is comedy relieft
