I've started incorporating "folks" into my vocabulary. It's actually kind of fun to say. Robbie and Dougie were on to something.

I've seen evidence that Lisi occasionally checks in here. Say hi!

Ha! Perhaps trying to figure out who shows up at the hearings? I'm six six and built like a linebacker.

I have no doubt. Also is cyber savvy with friends with hack skills. And don't think pumpkin doesn't lurk here as well sober or not.

Ya, occasionally when discussions heat up here I get harassed by an anonymous Twitter account that uses hashtags related to things only he and a small handful of others know about. Although I could see that being pumpkin too after she talks to Lisi. Like the week of the pretrial the troll popped up again, perhaps bitter I showed up to the courthouse.

Funny - I've done the opposite. Used to use "folks" all the time, but when I say it now I want to take a shower after.

Y'know, Rob Ford's Toronto has a certain kinda vibe. One that's not represented by the CN Tower or Casa Loma.
Compared to other cities, Toronto does not do public conveniences well. It just tends to close them, perhaps out of its waspish sense of yuck. UofT University College was designed without any loo-age: "young men can do it against a tree!" Rob n Dro are merely following time-honoured Hogtown tradition.
OTOH, Toronto does like its binge drinking. These polite but slightly phallic pissoirs pop up out of the ground during the hours the bars are busiest. Apparently it has stemmed the flow of al fresco urination.
Council ought to at least discuss the concept, no?

I think they should put this stuff in Rob's usual late-night haunts:

I guess he can operate on the guy who was shot.
BTW does he still have a chief of staff?

No, maybe Ann Hui misspoke out of habit. Dan Jacobs, his former chief-of-staff is executive assistant, Graeme is the constituency assistant, the special assistant is David Dipaul, and the administrative assistant is Judith Williams.

Good point. Old habits die hard, I guess. And not just for Rob.
