Definitely not. If this doesn't happen soon I am going to be in trouble.

Productivity levels are down across the city

For the record, I have no idea what he's going to announced. My phone has been ringing off the hook. Nobody but Rob Ford knows what is going to be said.

 

[Dubster]

All I can think of is Doug Ford running to City Hall like Dustin Hoffman at the end of The Graduate.

"Rob! Rooobbb! NOOOOOOOO!"

Who knew "good government" was such a crucial element of social productivity?

Also the top story at www.bbc.co.uk.

Not here in the UK, though it was top 'world news' briefly.

If that's the case, I go with Dovigi, DiBattista's nephew.

A "prominent hockey analyst" was the term used. Dovigi isn't one.

Definitely not. If this doesn't happen soon I am going to be in trouble.

Between this and the 3 hours I spent at the vet this morning... I don't think I'm accomplishing anything at all today.

 

[MisterF]

The story is on the front page of CNN.com...

Along with BBC, Aljazeera and every other news organization on the planet.

A "prominent hockey analyst" was the term used. Dovigi isn't one.

Please by Don Cherry... please be Don Cherry...

It was on their main (non mobile) site, at least when viewed from the US.

Please, this isn't courage, this is someone getting cornered and having to own up to increasingly indefensible lies. True courage would be someone who didn't have to get prompted umpteen times and accuse others of lying when they themselves are the biggest lie.

Let's see where this goes. I'm always prepared to err on the side of seeing the glass half full. We've been pushing him to take the first step for a long time, and he did it. I'm sure this is a tough process for him, and as much as I despise him, I also sympathize with him.
