Rob Ford's Toronto

Not open for further replies.
Okay, if he's using the few hours that he "feels good" to work, what's he doing at DQ, wandering others' wards etc? I understand Warmington's job is to kiss Ford butt, but really? Ford didn't think of a will before considering his wealth (and previous health issues)?

and really, who is calling Ford, who's sick, about a tree?

Besides, why wouldn't he be able to work from home, and chose to drive to City Hall using this rather circuituous route for someone who is only supposedly well enough for one hour of work?

Do you remember this training exercise that went wrong, Albert?

I remember reading about that, it likely resulted in the change to the jacks and dollies and probably no more air bags. I can ask my friend in the TFS the specifics of how it's done now.

There was some discussion here of how the effects of chemotherapy are cumulative, do we think that Rob will still try to get out and about for selfies after the next round even if he feels worse? As in, his need for adulation and validation is stronger than physical illness and weakness? How far will he jeopardize his health to get out there and be seen and photographed?
 
okay I've been looking back - anyone still have the link to Ford's DQ visit? (that's not doctor approved).

Ford driving downtown by taking St. Clair etc isn't that unusual, although usually he takes Dundas.

Probably wants to prove that he is still working Modified Duty ( which he has been since last year ).

Maybe someone wants another tree killed to make room for another parking space? I doubt many "tree huggers" call Robbie.

"Healthy, mature spruce gets X from @tdsb; new parking spaces get check marks. Tree is marked to be killed."

"This mature, healthy tree is being killed this week for more parking spaces."

The side effects of chemo is highly dependent on the type of drugs administered and the individual - some are worse than others.

It's interesting that he referred to driving behind a streetcar, which you can't (shouldn't) do on St Clair, but the bigger question is if he feels okay for only an hour here or there, why is he out of the house and driving around for at least an hour at a time? I understand that it's hard to keep him from roaming around, and pictures of him around town will start to surface until the next round of chemo, but he's probably not doing his health any favours.

i'm not 100% sure, but i believe i remarked back in july that i watched mikey work the crown in the lineup for burgers at the scarborough fordfest

of course, he was talking to the "folks" so it was probably fairly easy for him
