Yes, personally I was a great practitioner of the "Zeppelin-in-a-condom" style, or, as my sister used to say, "a ten pound sausage in a five pound skin." Now that I'm wearing more size appropriate clothing, I'm ironically starting to lose weight.

" Most ... Political ... Software ... EVER"

I'm in awe of the "put the dots together, folks" effort that has gone on over the last few pages. Though sometimes I worry that one or more of the posters has one of those big, whitewashed, concrete rooms with photos and clippings and index cards covering one wall, overlaid by a complex web of...

doesn't the do not call list also pertain to surveyors who aren't trying to sell anything? I though only political and existing consent relationships were exempt?

especially vis-a-vis traffic for the click through advertising banners, n'est pas? Not criticizing; applauding. Forums are a lot of work, it's a challenge to monetize them enough to even pay their expenses.

Seriously guy, is this some kind of parody account or, based on your last handful of comments, do you actually have a jumbo economy sized stick up your butt?

spot on! If he's trying to use the Ford name and family connections to get elected, he opens up the entire subject. If he isn't trading on his name, then exactly what is he bringing to the table? Not that a 20 year old college kid can't make a good candidate, but the ones that do usually have...

I, like RoFo, am I fluffy dude. I have gout and diabetes, which, at least in my case, tends to cause trouble with my big toes, not the baby toe. I did break my baby toe a few years back, when I was about Rob's age. Never having broken anything before, I did pop into the ER, and was out again...

I get people's hesitation about the story - investigative journalist spend most of their careers enticing people to violate confidentially (and sometimes even to break a legal oath, a la Woodward and Bernstien and the grand jury in reviews in '72), but this seems to feel different because it's...

So, here's something that is bugging me: why did Rob only refund his net salary? The difference between his net and gross was still paid out by the city, and still ends up in his pocket as tax credits. His gross cost to the taxpayers for his two month leave, no including the employer portion of...

Let me say that more than once I have seriously considered the plausibility of a breathalyzer interlock fitted to the city council voting buttons. Of course, the likely trend would be "Mayon Ford abstains in protest."

Maybe I'm simplistic, but looking back on it, it seems obvious that a marginal, freak populist candidate benefitted serendipitously from the backlash against a gay drug addict candidate in recovery. Whether a candidate is progressive or conservitave, they still have to capture enough of the...

Yuppers. Freedom of Speech (which, as we all know really only refers to freedom from government interference in speech), does not come bundled with freedom from consequences of your speech, nor a guaranteed and/or free platform from which to deliver your speech. I don't understand why no matter...

Just to save us all from giving Joey Worms his pennies for clicks, I'll quote his latest masterpiece. Summary: Doug has a heart of gold, shame on Chow, Tory and Rae for opening their mouths, and ... gas plants, guys, gas plants!!

Hey, according to Doug on that radio interview "cops and ems are there, uh, every other day." Not that he would exaggerate or anything...

My opinion? After Doug's "I-won't-rule-out-running-for-mayor" I suspect the division between Team RoFo and Team DoFo has widened. Joe is definitely Team Robbie. Don't think Doug was too happy with him even before RobHab, but after those two stories from Rob, I think Doug is majorly pissed at...

I think the Warmington piece, and his recent interaction with the Ford brothers, suggests that there may be a fratricidal war brewing, and Joe is trying to claw his way back into Rob's camp. In fact, it's pretty obvious that Doug's the one cutting him adrift, and trying to stop Rob from...

Hmmm, wasn't it Muzik where the staff complained about cleaning up RoFo vomit all over the private washroom?

I'm sorry, I know quoting your own tweets is wading heavily into douchebag territory, but I really couldn't resist.

I'm flattered, but I have more than enough "licker" at home.
