<p>The crazy thing about this lasted unhinged rant (fueled, one suspects, after inhaling the smoke of small burning white crystals) one is puzzled to know if he was rehearsing a promo to cut on Hulk Hogan (they arm-wrestled for charity, and Ford was the victor -- funny) or if it was about one of the guys who was, ummm, actually murdered (not so funny).</p>
<p> </p>
<p>These magazine covers tomorrow (the first is Canada's national news magazine; the latter is Toronto's weekly arts/news magazine) are too good not to share.</p>

<p>I love this guy. It's like Tommy Boy saved his Dad's company in the nineties and then entered politics.</p>

<p>His dad was played by Brian Dennehy, and now that you mention it, Ford does bear a striking resemblance to both men, a combo.</p> -
<p>Metro suburbanites who live in houses w/ two-and-three car garages and don't want to spend a dime on the homeless in the core and couldn't care if it turned into a shithole, those voters are mostly conservative, and all Ford seems to care about politically is low property taxes, so they love him. (Previous mayors when the city was smaller and more concentrated were mostly leftist.) The needs and priorities of people who live in the city and those who live in the GTA (Greater Toronto Area) are at odds (and let's face it - hardly anybody votes in municipal politics). Should give pause to proponents of city amalgamations who believe expanding territory means bigger is better.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Now,. to answer your question about wealth, yes, he does come from wealth, but it's less the blue-blood version and actually a lot fuckin' closer to a Tommy Boy blue-collar version. Ford's father started a company that produced plastic grocery bags, or something like that, and became a success, making about a hundred-million dollars a year. Tommy Boy and his brother became city councilors, and like a tag-team divided & conquered city-hall and the voters.</p> -

<p>For those still following along, the past 24 hours have been colourful ones for everybody's favourite crack-smoking mayor. </p>
'> </a></p>
<p> </p>
<p>Try to stay with me here and I'll give you the abbreviated version.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Police conducting the extortion case interviewed Ford support staff. Their testimony was released to the public yesterday in un-redacted form.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Of particular interest was the Mayor on Saint Paddy's Day. If I can remember the details correctly, on that day his support staff -- not his political enemies, but his support staff -- claimed that Rob had prostitutes in his City Hall office, was smoking pot, emptied half a 40 oz of vodka, told staff he "was going to get hammered" and was "going to get laid" that night. Took some Oxycontin. In a taxi he threw business cards at the driver and called him "Paki." He went to a restaurant and was seen snorting lines of coke. Made a pass at a woman, then told a female security guard that he wanted to "eat her pussy." Assaulted one of his staffers, threatened another. Drove home drunk. All in a day's work.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>This morning, Fatboy is now threatening to sue all of his ex-staffers for talking to police. Talking to a mob of reporters he says the claim that he wanted to eat the woman's "pussy" is false, saying that he's "happily married" and has all the pussy he needs to eat at home. <a data-ipb='nomediaparse' href='http://deadspin.com/rob-ford-denies-eating-pussy-during-live-televised-p-1464353838'>Yes, he actually said that about his wife</a>.</p>

<p>He looks like Chris Farley, but seems to be channeling the Will Ferrell character from Old School.</p>
