I feel so bad for Peat's iPad, with all the cracks in its screen after repeated, forceful applications of his forehead.

Coming up next: Karen's secret plan to win the Vietnam War. Oh, wait ... (Yes, I know that many people claim that Nixon was misquoted. Humour me.)

The Sun has a story up about the second crack video, which actually has no Ford or crack in it. They quote sources describing it, but no reporter has seen it yet.

I found this sentence from the G&M story interesting: Trying to spook the Fords? I wonder if Ford and Lisi still meet, or if Ford suspects (as do so many online commenters) that Lisi has turned on him.

Damn. Doug has a nice speaking voice, but whoever installed his "smile" subroutine should really be docked some pay.

I'm seeing some claims in the comments here that the Fords got some dismal polling results (sharp dropoff in support in what they thought were safe parts of Etobicoke and Scarborough), Doug is furious with Rob for wandering and going off script, and that's why you saw Doug and Dave with Rob last...

"There"? By "there", do you mean the small community flagpole that regularly flies a wide variety of flags once they've been approved? Full list is here. You do know, of course, that the Canadian flag is still up on the tallest flagpole and that several other Canadian flags fly alongside...

I think you just described the Ford family crest. Motto: Tibi nulla est in potestate (well, that will break into something completely different when you plug it into Google Translate).

This year the deadline for filing or withdrawing a nomination is September 12.

I wouldn't be too quick to assume that Doug is devoid of charisma. A year or so back, I wound up briefly talking to (or, actually, mostly listening to) Doug in a one on one conversation. As much as I know that he's a lying bully, he presented as surprisingly charming and approachable, with a...

Yeah, that's been a concern I've had. So if an arrest were to happen on September 12, say, instead of September 10, I'd be fine with that.

It was at 301+ views when I checked before writing my post: I threw in the 276 to be generous, which was obviously an error on my part. We DON'T KNOW exactly how many times a video has been viewed in the first hours after it goes up if you see 301, and seeing 276 in the first minutes after...

I don't know what the final number will be, but new YouTube videos, even the ones getting lots of hits, often freeze at a count of 276 or 301 for a while.

Also on 1010: Some recorded message that came into Ford's office threatening him and his family, no other details. But he didn't seem to be thrown off his stride. Of course he wasn't. So the only new detail is that it was a recorded phone message.

.... and guess what's the top news on 1010? Idiot. Way to make Ford look like a victim. AGAIN.

(Did my last post just disappear?) Yes, there's evidence that Ford is a chug drinker, but NO evidence that he was doing that in the Junction on Wednesday night. There was one commenter at the Sun repeatedly insisting that he was drunk, and two people here saying he was present, with one of...

Looks like Sarah Doucette stepped into it -- late! -- with the 3030 story: Rob Ford was at bar 3030 Dundas St. W (Ward 13) into the wee hours of this Thursday. Witnesses said he was very drunk. Drove himself home. Odd how one person showed up at the Sun and insisted repeatedly that Ford was...

A musical interlude while we're waiting.

Uniformed cops have entered Ford's office through the back door.

Looks like it. The Globe is usually heavily against Ford, the National Post is largely against him, and even the Sun has relatively few diehards. OTOH, there are some pretty intense homophobes in every comment section and Facebook for sure.
