OK, yeah, I know that I said that the last one was a final thought. But this time I mean it - 100% guaranteed. Trust me on this.
Rob Ford has never, so far as I know, been observed to have worked a day in his life during which he had to have the ability to use a computer. He supposedly was brought into Deco in "sales" and more latterly spent (by his own estimation) about 5 hours per week "doing the books" (which does not imply that he was shock testing a Deco buisness plan for interest rate variables using Excel). It seems to be undoubted that as a councillor he used the telephone, blank sheets of paper and bankers boxes. With a staff to read and compose e-mails there would have been no reason for him to learn to use anything other than a cellphone, whether as mayor or as a councillor. His only apparent interest, other than alcohol, pot and hard drugs, is sports - and for that all he needs is tv, radio and the Sun.

Totally believable.
