Yeah, Paula has never abused drugs or alcohol.

And Manny Ramirez was trying to get pregnant.

"I've never been addicted or abused drugs, and I've never abused alcohol"

To borrow a phrase from a former president, define abused.

If she has been in several accidents and is suffering tremendous pain, that is truly sad and I have compassion for her. However, last year she must have been in major pain because I honestly thought she was literally stoned. At times, she constantly slurred her words, couldn't put together a sensible sentence and gave the appearance of being "high as a kite".

She's doing a lot better this year, but you can still tell that it takes her a while to share her observations. I'm assuming her problems are related to pain medication, because if the AI producers thought she was high on marijuana or was doing hard drugs, they would probably have to let her go. If she survived last season, it must be a medical problem.

I, too, don't understand someone with her past serious injuries attempting to dive mid air into the arms of fellow-dancers. If I had gone through that much pain with back and neck injuries, there's no way I would do a dance routine like that. I wouldn't want to take a chance on another injury in the same area.

Weenrocks- I'm happy to provide the Moxie for tomorrow's grudge match, but if anyone wants to spike it with something stronger, they'd better find Paula and ask her for it themselves. ;)
