The most damning evidence of poor judgement and unsuitability for the mayor's chair: "Records show Tory contributed $300 to [Doug] Ford when he was running for the Ward 2 council seat, on top of a $2,000 donation to his brother Rob Ford, who was then running for mayor."...

“to me, politics is not a speculative sport. Someone’s got to step up.” I'm willing to bet Jude said "spectator sport" and does not appreciate the misquote. ETA: Scooped by justindw

Did Vidal ever meet the Fords? (A word a day)

The spin was that amalgamation would reduce costs through reduced duplication. Harris et al. knew there would be no real savings (and there hasn't been). A lot of people favour the explanation that...

OK, Jude, many thanks for doing this. I assume your timing expectations were thrown off by something outside your control, hence the unfortunate stretching of "imminent" and the uneventful "today" yesterday. If your lawyer is not working pro bono and you need help, please let the forum know.

ftfy.

streetcar rescues and airbags Only a couple of years ago I walked past a 512 car that had struck a motorcyclist. He had already been taken to hospital, but air bags were still in place, inflated under the streetcar.

Once you notice the eyes on either side of the bunny's "ears," you will probably cross the floor.

Apparently, we have all been given permission to show up at RoFo's funeral (it can't come too soon) and take smiling selfies with the coffin in the background. I will be taking the day off work.
