So last night I was having dinner next to someone who was telling me about his little conversation with Paul Camuso.
REPORTEDLY Camuso approached the fellow and said "I'm really a good person, aren't I?"
Talk about insecurity.
The fellow said he didn't have the heart to tell him to his face what a no good, lying, thieving, s.o.b. the community feels Camuso is.
OK, I've paraphrased the fellow with a few extra expletives to make the point.
No, PAUL CAMUSO, the answer is no.
You are not a nice person.
Just ask Dee Dee Warwick, Dionne's sister, Whitney Houston's aunty!

"I left a boy for someone like you..."
That individual - and you know who it is - had the decorum not to tell you what everyone else in the community thinks about you.
We have no such restrictions.
Ask me, Paul, and you'll need a good five hours and you'll get to hear someone recite the laundry list of your misdeeds.
No truth to the rumor Paul Camuso will be singing "Light My Fire" at the Chevalier...
but Camuso will be singing...and soon!

Remember what Chiwetel Ejiofor as Detective Bill Mitchell said to Denzel Washington (as Detective First Grade Keith Frazier)
"If you gotta ask..."
If You Gotta Ask, Paul, then you already have your answer.
Linda Ronstadt will spell it out for you
You're No Good
