You must be new here.

I want to see the Iron Sheik in there.

I prefer the dd-mm-yy format they use there because I'm English I guess. The American one (mm-dd-yy) is horrible because it doesn't go from most significant to least significant or vice versa. yy-mm-dd is ok but as the lemur says, feels like an entry in a spreadsheet. Standard time format (eg...

That's not how it works. RoFo is clearly in some kind of facility. I'm sure there are several that would jump at the chance for the free publicity -- indeed one issued a public invitation (and that may well be the one he's in). Private units do not have to abide by anybody else's rules about...

So it's impossible for voters to remove Rob Ford?

But Ford isn't an employee of Council. He's an elected official. As crazy as it sounds, absent a recall mechanism, it's better for him to be voted out of office because otherwise his supporters will claim he was illegitimately removed, frustrating the will of the voters in an undemocratic...

No kidding. He's conducted himself with both humour and grace.

There would need to be direct evidence of a quid pro quo for any charges and absent wiretaps or affidavits I very much doubt there's that. That's why you have integrity commissioners and rules about conflicts of interests, because petty corruption often doesn't rise to the level of a chargeable...

The vast majority of organized crime operators are just as incompetent. Birds of a feather. You only have to look at the mafiosi who become successful to realize how dumb the rest of them must be.

I think the point is that Rob and Doug see nothing wrong with this behaviour. It's classic mob mentality -- they see themselves as businessmen, not gangsters. This is just them being business-friendly, to friends. That's why the honour code will never work with them. Because they honestly don't...

The integrity commissioner is a useless piece of shit. It has to be said.

I'm sure it was lawyered to death. That means a reliable source and probably an affidavit. It makes sense to me that it's Marvin the Weasel. His testimony has put people in jail.

I have asked Robert Benzie on Twitter https://twitter.com/johnbrownlow/status/465187821431840769

Yes, I strongly suspect Renata is in on this.

Those burgers aren't going to flip themselves.

ROFOMOFO, you really need to accept that the rest of us found it offensive.

Yeah that's absolute bullshit from MM. You prove DUI one way only, with a physical test. The onus of proof is on the crown.

There's a suggestion that the mole is Marvin The Weasel, Canada's most prolific police informant and Jimmy Hoffa's former driver, who Rob had lunch with that day. If so, spectacular, and it explains why there is such detail. Marvin's been doing this stuff for DECADES.

I guess my point was that RoFo has been used to hiding his true self in basements and parks and nightclubs. In rehab he has nowhere to hide. The real RoFo is going to come out there and it's not going to be pretty. He seems to enjoy fighting, for example. If there are lines he's gonna cross...
