Oh, these Canadian news sites, whose videos I cannot get to load in the US of A... Thanks to both you and casita for the links to make the attempt - will try on my phone when I get a chance .
lizangel, with due respect...I'm thinking that something that you read someplace, sometime - but don't remember where or when and that no one else can verify from any other public source - might not be a good thing to throw out as fact, especially where it casts pretty serious allegations against his mother and (apparently) divulges confidential medical information about Ford...even to defend him.
Yup, that works both ways, although there is a lot that seems available on both sides; I guess it just depends on who's in control ultimately. An example would be a TV show that a friend of mine works on that's available here through a secondary Canadian cable channel, but I believe is on CW in the US. Full episodes are available through CW, but not on the Canadian one, even though the show is shot here. But I can't watch CW online.
Slightly OT, but I was wondering how many Canadian channels (if any) you can see where you are and if you and your take on the political ads from this side of the border as opposed to the US. I ask this because even though I live several hours from Michigan (east of TO), my HD American cable channels (Eastern) are from Detroit. The political ads from Michigan (and likely elsewhere) are something else. I almost spit out my drink the other night with this one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tcJ2wx_9H9s
On election day at the Ford gathering, there was a lady (on 1010 at least) who was weeping about losing her house and claiming that so many citizens don't understand municipal issues.
Was she a newcomer to Ford Follies, or a Ford regular from IHTWOMRF?
ISIS coming to Toronto. If only ... I think I was in love with her when I was a kid:This is probably the woman who also claimed that Tory's election was like ISIS coming to Toronto.
Much to my annoyance, we can only get CBC, and since our cable provider switched to HD, we can't even get that, on the older TV. Which means I tend to tune in for Rick Mercer Report and This Hour has 22 Minutes, if the timing's right - and occasionally Hockey Night in Canada (or what will be left of it on CBC :'( . So I don't see many Canadian political ads. I did see some during the last federal election and was a little shocked to see the vitriol ramped up to something a bit closer to the US style attack ads from the way campaigns were being run when I left home.Slightly OT, but I was wondering how many Canadian channels (if any) you can see where you are and if you and your take on the political ads from this side of the border as opposed to the US.

Mikey's voice:
It matters not to the merits (or lack thereof) of Mikey as a trustee. I think it is just that, having been silent (except for a few words at a Ford Fest) for so long, some people were struck by how high the pitch of his voice is - he sounds somewhat like his voice has not changed since he was about 12, or, as one CH reporter put it (rather cruelly, perhaps) on Twitter, he sounds like a castrato. My thought was that it sounds similar to when Michael Jackson provided the voice for Leon Kompowsky, the large white guy escaped mental patient who claims (until the final moments of the episode) that he is Michael Jackson and helps Bart write the song "Lisa, It's Your Birthday" on the Simpson's.

I think that I was the one who added "pissibly" to the tags - but I can no longer recall where it came from in the first instance.
I came on this page to talk about the dead beat dad Randy. Yes I provided info and was questioned how I know things.. I have removed some of my posts and in reference to those I hope you can delete your comments . Out of all the Fords that just upset me that people would make fun of his voice like I said before he is a good kid with a bad last name and even worse uncles.
I will be shutting down my account soon anyway. Adios Amigos
So, is everyone ready for the internet to explode if/when Rob's health update isn't good?

I always was sad that I never got to see the TV series, which I couldn't get back in the 4-channel universe back then. Sadly a few weeks after they cancelled it, we finally got cable. But on the bright side, along came Lynda Carter ...
