Rob Ford PR mgr tells me not sure when Doug will launch campaign, lots of work to do first. Fridays Ford Fest is being rescheduled #topoli

He was supposed to do that today.

Mike Ford, Rob's nephew, arrives at hospital. No comment to media. #TOpoli

Probably nothing out of the ordinary.

Rob Ford doesn't have asthma...
He's got Crack Lung.

Typical Liberal, blaming the crack, it's no worse than the carcinogen Burger at Steak Queen. His asthma is probably from spending too much time in parks pissing on trees in full blown.

No doubt the "asthma" plays into that too. I mentioned in a post a day or two ago that Towhey was on 1010 on Friday discussing the turn of events of the day. He mentioned something about Rob being a bit of a "horker"; unfortunately Jim Richards' podcast from Friday isn't up yet to confirm.

Pot smoking will cause a cough and even wheezing:

Symptoms of chronic bronchitis were more commonly reported among regular marijuana smokers than nonsmokers. The smokers reported wheezing, chronic cough, and production of sputum.

I think Rob was probably smoking pot on a regular basis, much more than doing crack.

 

[nfitz]

they're actually stating that Ford's stay was good for business?

That appear's to be exactly what they are suggesting. Whether true or not, I don't know ...

So there's two Doug for mayor sites, right? One's a fake and one has no name on it. Does the one with no name on it share things in common with Rob's site?

I'm all confused about this stuff too....there's three sites that seem to be in play:

1. dougfordformayor.ca

Domain name: dougfordformayor.ca
Domain name status: registered
Creation date: 2014/05/06
http://www.whois.com/whois/dougfordformayor.ca

This is the one created in May. It is currently blank. I believe this is the one that someone here claimed their friend created?

2. dougfordformayor.com

Domain Name: dougfordformayor.com
Updated Date: 05-mar-2014
Creation Date: 05-mar-2014
Registrant Name: Stephen Smith
Registrant Organization: Webnames Services INC
Registrant Street: ATTN: WN596186, Suite 333 - 333 Terminal Ave.
Registrant City: Vancouver
Registrant State/Province: BC
http://www.whois.com/whois/dougfordformayor.com

This one was actually registered in March. Visit the page and it says it's under development. Does anyone know anything about this one?

3. dougfordmayor.ca

Domain name: dougfordmayor.ca
Domain status: registered
Creation date: 2014/09/12
Registrar:
Name: Go Daddy Domains Canada, Inc
Number: 2316042
http://www.whois.com/whois/dougfordmayor.ca

It was registered on Sept. 12, which could mean it may actually become Doug's site. No admin contact is listed, but like Rob Ford's site, it was registered via Go Daddy. The page states it is in maintenance mode.

Doug Ford for Mayor director of communications Jeff Silverstein says Ford Fest (that was going to be on Friday) is being rescheduled #TOpoli

I wonder if they will need to find a new location.

Vaughan sounds good.

 

[Greg Banks]

Good to know that we're not in a vacuum here.

That is frightening since I use my real name....

 

[whatthe]

Vaughan sounds good.

The Arctic Circle sounds better.

 

[casita]

Pardon my ignorance, but what does 'horker' mean?

Not sure what it means exactly, but Bob and Doug ( McKenzie ) used it frequently. As in, "I horked a beer from your fridge."

Nah, they have enough bullshit dealing with Harper.

Ya I heard this is the case--smokes pot daily.

A guy who hacks up and spits.

Aw, c'mon. There may not be a lot settlements up that way, but the folks who live in them already have enough headaches. They don't deserve ours.

As if the regular ones aren't bed enough.
