Rob Ford's Toronto

[fishie]

Interesting... though in this age group unstable arrhythmias potentially leading to sudden cardiac death are the most common issues. And then you get an ICD (implantable cardioverter-defibrillator) rather than a pacer per se. All ICDs can pace, but not all pacemakers function as ICDs.

You're right, of course. I was just calling it a pacemaker because Mikey called it that. But at least in the case of my co-worker, his was an ICD.

I think you meant to say your heart bleeds

No, it is certainly not the kid's fault who their Dad is

my heart bleeds (for you)
phrase of bleed

used ironically to express the speaker's belief that the person spoken about does not deserve the sympathetic response sought.

my heart goes out to you

you feel sympathy for someone

How about giant statues of Rob and Doug at the entrance to James Gardens?

Can't afford statues. Cardboard cutouts will have to do.

Mammoliti is such a piece of work. "Smear campaign"? Wasn't he the one pleading for Ford to seek treatment in a council meeting?

I know that. You know that. Rob doesn't know that.

Never shied away from responsibilities? Well, it takes a smear to talk about being smeared.

I know that. You know that. Rob doesn't know that.

Oh you bet he does.

Smear campaign? So the whole crack smoking, envelope passing, public intoxication was all a campaign?

Doug Ford has pulled out of tomorrow's Conservative Futures event in Barrie, according to organizers.

Doug never misses out on self promotion unless he really had to...

Right!! Sorry, totally forgot about his misuse of the term. I have a chronical memory problem.

Better to find a deep inlet and call it Rob's Fjord

I believe the mayor of Trondheim, Rob Fjord, was accused of smoking herring on city property.

Doug never misses out on self promotion unless he really had to...

Or he got uninvited.

 

[animatronic]

Doug never misses out on self promotion unless he really had to...

Or, he was disinvited from the forum and this is his cover story.

I wonder if when he passes the homeboys of Dixon will fire off a 21 (illegal) gun salute to their fallen soldier.

Before or after they pour one out (Gatorade & Russian Prince) for their homie?

Barbara Hall got a parkette. The Fords should dream of something that significant.

He'll need to get something, of course. Look for a small plot of non-functional (e.g., no schools or community centres) city property somewhere in Etobicoke.

With a public urinal. One of those Parisian-style pissoirs with a chest-height wall.
