True. It's just that, when you comb through the middle few-thousand pages of this thread (!), you start remembering a whole cavalcade of insanity and loose ends that never got tied up. What ever happened to all those wild stories of connections here and there - Windsor, Fort Mac, etc - and all those characters - Rinse, Jasmine, etc - who dropped in and out of the story? I wonder if any will start coming forward and saying, "here's the deal with the escort service/jailhouse beating/911 calls/drunk driving/etc etc."
Presumably at least some people feared Ford's reach and retaliation, and with him out of the picture (and a post-mortem bump in demand for news items related to Ford) will some people be tempted to sell their stories?
On another front, what becomes of Brazen 2, or any of the other open files on him? Will "unnamed sources" have a chat with the Star?
Would the sympathy of Rob's death give Doug impetus to run again for higher office?
Etc etc.
