Board,
This is too funny to post but here it goes O's words..
Shortly after Paul died, I was lying in my bed one night reading{Book backstabbing 101}. For some reason I felt compelled to look up, and standing at the foot of my bed was Paul. He said, "I'm all right whre I am, Otis. I just want to let you know." And then he was gone. Talking to Eddie later, I said, "Man, you know, I saw Pau." Eddie replied, "Yeah, he came to me, too."
Where is my book of cuss words, O is a @@#### liar why would Paul come to Otis and tell him that and no else?? Eddie, yes I can see him saying those words to him because of the close of the relationship but, O no I can't see Paul coming to him for what.
Board,
David and Eddie were alived when this mess hit the streets what was their thoughts about the tantilizing dream.

Here's an excerpt from Tony T's book. This passage is hilarious, nevertheless, he touched on it: Of course, those old vicious rivalries still linked both groups of Temptations to the past. Otis Williams had dogged Eddie, Dennis & David to hell in his bitter 1988 memoir, & Eddie, Dennis & David in turn blamed just about everything that went wrong on Otis. The first thing they would when there was trouble was, "I bet you Otis & them is behind this." When the group ended up in one city and their entire stage wardrobe in another, Dennis insisted only half-jokingly that once again, Otis was up to his old tricks. "I can see people trying to take our money, " he said, " but trying to sabotage our clothes...." LMAO!!! ;D ;D ;D ;D Could you imagine being on the road with these three?? LAWD, LAWD, LAWD!!! I'd probably need an oxygen tank for laffing so much at them!!! ;D ;D ;D Whew wee!!!

Board, David and Eddie were alived when this mess hit the streets what was their thoughts about the tantilizing dream. QNew I think O and Paul were not on too bad of terms. Paul continued to work behind the scenes for a while after he stopped performing with The Tempts. I have never heard them say anything about the "dream",but they did not appreciate the book. Ruffin more so then Eddie was upset. It was around that time Ruffin began talking about telling his side of the story.

This is too funny Otis lying on them and they are blaming O's for sabotage their performances. You are right being on the road with them three you need to bring everything you got just to get thru the laughs.

Eddiesluv and DF, a tape floating in cyberspace Eddie's comments about the infamous dream. Very interesting!!
Paul did not speak to darn Otis he just trying to win some brownies points with the public "no one coming to Otis" Pitiful,, Genna and he are piece of work always talking nonsense.

I will have to check & see if this footage is on one of my Tempts compliations tapes. One of my tapes, I do have an interview that David & Eddie did with Sheila(her names escapes me now) from Ebony showcase. I think I may have that one with Eddie & Dennis on Donnie's show. I'm not sure though.
