Rob Ford's Toronto

[DTGeek]

What is everyone watching football or something? Borring.

Looks like it's the end for the Ford Broncos. Foreshadowing?

it's the most "grilling" interview i've seen doug do... you can watch his anger at avery build throughout... it's great.

The guy doesn't blink. I watched closely, and I swear, he didn't blink once. How is that possible?

He's either a wax figure or an automaton with no real thoughts or feelings. I vote for a combo given his hair does not move either.

How to spot a psycho

Watch their hand movements. Psychopaths tend to use more 'beats' - this is thought to be because they are socially awkward and do it to give themselves more time to come up with the right words.

The predatory stare. It's not just something that happens in the movies. Psychos don't blink as much.

The nonplussed reaction. Psychos can't 'read' faces. They won't see you getting increasingly uncomfortable with their intensity.

They're rude to the staff. Someone who is nice to you but horrible to the waiter has only superficial charm.

Lack of embarrassment when caught out telling a lie. Most people would blush if spotted at a party when they said they were going to a funeral. Psychos just laugh and carry on.

Had not seen that. And in so watching, kept thinking, "That dead-eyed monster reminds of something", yet still couldn't quite place it. Then it hit me:

maybe Price's mother had a different last name or, as they're saying this is a memorial service, perhaps she passed away awhile ago and this is a private service/memorial. Interesting no one's found the clip with Ford hanging with guys who were taking pulls from a flask (although in my experience that's not totally out of place outside of a wake/memorial, 'though not particularly classy). I know nothing about Price other than he was a buddy of Doug, former staffer and possibly a past dealer/user.

Perhaps:

Mark II android from Ford.

That person died in March of 2013 -- so unlikely if they would be having a funeral now.

Also, assuming Price is about the same age as Dougie (born 1964), it's unlikely his mother would have been born in 1918.

Very interesting titbits about the Ford family dynamics. Must see TV!

Let's see if this works:

It's a Memorial service - these things happen at some point after the funeral... can be months... when convenient.

Mother could have been 46 when he was born... not unheard of.

Not unheard of, especially nowadays. But back in 1964??

Fascinated by the revelation Ford Sr hired an ex-police officer to administer lie detector tests on his kids.
