    From CKNW news alert:

    "Toronto Mayor Rob Ford is being taken to court. He's accused of orchestrating  a jailhouse assault on his sister’s ex-boyfriend."

    Rob Ford ticketed for jaywalking four blocks from my house, lol. The cops always try to ticket jaywalkers there because drunk people coming out of the foggy dew keep getting run over. Damn, if i'd known he was at that bar i would have walked over there last night just to check out the chaos that it surely must have been there, which is already a huge drunken party on Friday nights even without a drunk Rob Ford. It is a super inappropriate place for the mayor of Toronto to be partying at! I don't believe he wasn't there. There isn't anything else around there for Ford to be doing. Wtf is he doing wandering in that neighborhood other than drinking?? It is really weird that he was even in the area, much less without a car... a train station is right there though... maybe ford was taking public transit... but why would he do that if he was sober? Strange.

    hahaha. It keeps getting better and there is no end in sight.

    He was shitfaced stumbling about at 3am likely looking for a hotdog vendor. And I know the area: bad move, Rob, trying to use your speed and athleticism to cross that section of highway.

    the crazy thing about this guy is that he is a perpetual liar but at the same time brutally honest too ... it's like he would totally tell the truth as his first choice but is only lying because he is trying to save his skin ...

    What I find terribly disturbing about this whole ford fiasco is guy is getting a 6 figure salary for doing nothing, no wonder people have zero use government.

    It's proof that deep down no one actually believes that politicians do any work that is meaningful. If a high school janitor acted in this manner, he would have been shit-canned after the first incident and the public would have been appalled and in an uproar. Yet the guy who is in charge of Toronto is a lock to get re-elected.

    Politicians have done with “lack of productivity” what Snoop Dogg has done with weed. Eventually, if you present yourself in a certain manner long enough, everyone just associates that standard.

    well ... he isn't a lock to get re-elected ... it's a combination of factors ...

    it's a municipal election where 50% of the people don't bother to vote ... then there are always like 5 or 6 candidates ... ya - his base is strong ... but if we did any kind of proportional representation voting system - he would come in last because everyone outside his base would put him last ...

    That Jimmy Kimmel interview was funny.

    "why are you dressed like a magician?" Jimmy Kimmel to Rob Ford.

    Here hoping for re-election ... at least with him as mayor, it's kind of therapeutic humor for the rest of us in this cess pool known as Ontario. :)) :))

    I read that Ford is kind of pissed about the interview.

    He did the interview. I wonder what he expected? Has he ever watched Kimmel.

    Look how he dressed for the interview. I guess he dressed that way because he thought black was slimming.
