Seriously, how hard is it to f with someone who isn't quite there like Gail.  She sounded like she got new meds and they are working, not to mention she doesn't have Paul around thinking saying he wants to die is communication.

Yeah, I didn't want you to get mixed up with the dead guy.  Seriously, Paul is a creep.

You really thought that people would think Joey Ramone was posting from the grave?

You really think I just made a typo... oh well... i have spoken my mind.

Yes.  I think you were in such a rush to start this awful thread that you made a typo.

Paul has been in a shitty situation for many years, I don't care what state Gail is in or has been in, he should have left long ago. The guilt of staying around has probably caused many problems to him emotionally and physically over the years. Thankfully Melly came along and gave him a reason to leave and a reason to live.Paul has gone over and above the call of duty for years...he can now live HIS life.

Once again you are judging from his point of view. Don't you think someone who plows their time/money into "GAP" has a few screws loose on their own? No matter how crazy she is or how much "above and beyond" he has gone, if he broke her arm and bruised her he is a scumbag, and he never said she was lying about the arm break. Crazy is fun but he is ill.

Crazy is fun but he is ill.  If...If that happened it would be a different situation. I won't speculate on guys beating their wives. If all the evidence we have is Gayle saying it to ron and Fez then that's not enough for me to go on. A false accusation of spousal abuse is horrible...it can ruin a persons life. As far as him putting his money, time and effort into GAP... There are thousands of independant film makers who do this every year. It doesn't make them/ him nuts, it makes him a person following his dream. It's a long shot for all these people that do this but if they never tried they will never know their true heights.

Ok on the film, but I guess I would have just felt better if he said "I never broke her arm 25 years ago and I never hit her"

I see your point Ramone. An outright denial may bring solace to a point but it's still a pretty sticky situation when speculating about abuse.Even though abuse happens....alot, there are still people who are ruined by a false abuse or rape or molestation accusations.We need to use caution when speaking of these types of situations.

Agreed... being unjustly accused, especially if you have had to deal with a lot of shit, may make you seem like an ass when you aren't.  I will reserve my judgement on "GAP" until it comes out.

Thank you sir, just remember that sometimes the innocent suffer as bad as the guilty... Not just in Pauls' situation (guilty or innocent) but in hundreds of cases. We just need to get more information before we jump to conclusions about people. I do applaud your emotion when it comes to men beating women.Take care, enjoy your time on the board.

How great was Gail O on toay's show. She really stood up to Paul. What a great bit and as usual Ronny handeled the whole thing great.

Paul O has been around a long long time. gail has been abusive for years and he has accordingly dealt with it in the best way possible.Poor Mel gaot tossed under the bus though,which kind of sucked.

No one can really know what is real with Gail and Paul O.  They both are nuts and annoying. What makes Paul O a movie specialist anyway?  We all have a brother in law that reads variety, took some film classes and acts like an expert.  Who gives a shit?  The real problem here is that it is not funny.  It is depressing to hear Paul O and Gail talk to each other. The abuse allegations, the abortions, the mental illness, the thoughts of suicide.  ENOUGH!  I want to laugh.  And I do laugh, but only because Ron gets some kind of sick thrill out of egging them on, which is kind of funny, but still depressing.  The kind of funny that you feel bad about.  I don't think that Ron needs to prey on the weak, the retarded or the redhead who will do anything to impress Ron and Jay (I'm in the 14th minute of my 15 minutes of fame) Moore in order to be funny.

This really isnt the first time the physical abuse of Gail by Paul has been mentioned though the boys never really mentioned it seriously themseleves.  When we first really heard gail go off during the wjfk days she would yell in the background that "he beats me up regularly" but paul would just kinda yell over her and say "alright, alright".  She's yelled it out multiple times since. Didnt listen to the show today, I'll Listen later and see what finally brought it to light.

If they want to air their problems on the show, I say go ahead because ITS GREAT RADIO! Especially when exasperation and prescription medication are involved.

Oh, don't get me wrong.. Ron turned that into some of the best radio ever... it was just a bit jarring to hear the allegations when she sounded so lucid and I started to think that maybe Paul not "just a playful nut".  The only real way to tell what is going on is to have her spend a few nights over at Fez's place.

Don Stugots

01-17-2007, 03:34 AM

it was great to listen to.  i feel bad for gail-o but paul-o has taken a ton of shit from her over the years, more than one person should have to take.  he did the right thing by her for much longer than others would have.  Paul, keep going forword with your life budday.

"paul is a cool guy.  whatever happened with him and his wife is his business."Actually, Stugots, if Paul beat up his wife, that's society's business.  I don't spend enough time on this message board to know if you're just playing a character, but if you're not you should know better.I'm certainly willing to give Paul the benefit of the doubt considering Gail's credibility issues, but jeoy had a fair point about being troubled by the lack of a stronger denial.  I know that if one of my ex-girlfriends got on the radio and said I had beaten and choked her, my response would be "HELL NO I DIDN'T", not "Well, you know, things were crazy back then, and we're both such irresponsible people..." or whatever non-denial denial he typically uses to skirt around explaining his messes.I can only imagine what he'd say at the police station..."Paul, did you break your wife's arm?" "I thought I was going to talk about movies."I used to be a big Paul-O sympathizer, but I guess people are more complicated than you realize at first.  I definitely give him credit for sticking with Gail as long as he did.  Hopefully while he was with her he acted in a way he can be proud of.

The new doctor she has and the new meds she has been out on are working. She sounded very sane and believable.  I was ready to cringe when I heard her voice but instead I was ready to cry.  I really don't think she was lying.  You have to feel some sympathy for her.

ReverseFP

01-17-2007, 05:38 AM

angelinad,I thought she sounded a lot more lucid too.  It kind of ruins the humor of Paul/Gail when Gail isn't just a rampaging cartoon character but a real-sounding person with enormous problems that probably aren't her fault.  I know we can count on Ron to twist the knife as much as possible but hopefully Gail isn't asked to call in much more... at least until she gets everything together and can be sane AND relatively settled.

I try to stay out of this argument on the board as much as I can, but Paul is NOT a wife beater, if anything it is the other way around.  He tries to help her and comes home with scratches on his face and arms, she had some fun calling and threatening my teenage daughter the other night.  I could go on and on, but I'll just say that these things are just the tip of the iceberg.

Good job standin' up for the paul-o.  I was once married to a psycho and kind know where he's comin' from.

I saw Stu post this and I have to agree. Unless we are in the relationship keep out. I can only see it from the guys point of view and I have to say I wish him well. What I think doesnt F'in matter. As long as this makes them both better, I say Paul should stay his ground and Gail should continue to get the help she wouldnt have with Paul as her crutch. I wish them both well...and Melly as I said before you are a Saint! I respect the stand up for your man.

Gail is a sad example of a women to me. She kept saying she wanted to get back with Paul. WHY??? If he hit, broke your are, put you through a wall, why on gods green earth would you want him back???

This is a perfect example of how nice guys finish last and the ass holes get the girls.

He his you.
He is with another women.
He doesn't show any intrest in getting back together.
You got the house.

Cut your losses and move on and get the fuck over it....I know it's not easy, but getting back together at this point and thinking everything will be ok and this won't happen again is not the thing to do.

Atleast I got some laughs form this good radio.

Mel, get her to threaten anyone with a witness on the line.Even if it is Paul. Terroristic threats in any form can land you in jail. As I said in a previous post, so sorry that YOU got thrown under the bus.
