Rob Ford's Toronto

[inyyz]

That's funny.

Thanks Cooper. I miss the days when something like that would spark the creativity of those who could create an image of RoFo on a horse with a braided mane. Not that I'm challenging....

A favored graphic amigo hinted he was worth more to the missus dead than alive. Perhaps she had about enough of being a UT widow... I dont even know how to add italics

 

[The Golem]

it's not about her, and it's not about who he supports or not

it's all just about him

only couple weeks to go before the operation, has to keep his name out there

Yup.

eBay

One assumes that there'll be another round off spoof bids in ridiculous sums.

 

[Jimmi T]

So anyone remember what was Ford's position on carding when he was mayor? I'm guessing he just said something useless like "I support the police" when asked about it.

The auctions all end in an hour, and the biggest ticket item, the $16K crack-confession tie, sits this time out at a mere $1080.

The Grey Cup mug is at $20.83.

So, I don't think there's much time left for any large scale punking, but neither is there much time to make any serious money.

It's all those charities I feel badly for.

For some reason I was thinking of Maurice Duplessis, former premier of Quebec. (Conrad Black wrote a biography of him about 40 years ago.)

ETA"grassage" was greasing the rails/wheels to make things roll, I.e. Ca$h.

And I thought grassage (rhyming more or less with 'passage') might be either paying people off with bags of weed or else 'grass' in the UK sense of an underworld informer ('grassing' on someone, police relying on a 'supergrass', etc.).

I don't think it's possible to feel bad for a charity that does not exist (or which we have not seen).

I can picture Randy on a horse no problem (it's the hat), but somehow the idea of Doug on a horse seems even funnier.

Ah well, I am sure the already fragile ego took another hit - he really isn't worth as much as he thought he does.

If Harper can dress as a ranch hand then why not Dougie. Of course this is Toronto, I think Dougie on stage singing "Macho Man" wearing assless chaps would be more "folksy".

 

[Videodrome]

What are the chances that the final bids for Rob's stuff are also fake this time? I am guessing 50/50.

 

[Cooper]

Hard to say. The bids are much more believable this time around, though. I'd like to know what Rob means by "charities." Might they include political campaigns that are now trying to close out the books?

Thats kind of where my mind went too. I thought of B and D pony boys. In Robbie's case replete with feed bag. Sandro holding the reigns. I think my mind just broke.
