Mayor Merten’s Wish List
Elves are cheeky buggers. Be careful what you ask for this Christmas. You might not get what you wanted, but what you need instead. Or, if you’re a certain Mayor, maybe you’ll get what you deserve.

Designated Ford Driver
Rob Ford says he hasn’t had a drop of alcohol in about 3 weeks. That means his current daily poor behaviour is what he is like stone cold sober. I wish him luck, but I’m afraid the first thing he’ll have to do to stay sober is to change the kind of people he hangs out with. Might be an uphill battle.

Honest Politicians
There are probably a few honest politicians out there, but they tend to neither rise through the ranks nor reach the headlines. Certainly not in the way that our current headlining politicians do.

Your Crack is Showing
I made this immediately after the alleged scandal was purported to have apparently been inferred. Ford pretty quickly said the whole idea of a video of him smoking crack was “ridiculous”, and I think most of us would agree, though perhaps for different reasons. Here we are though, just about a week later and he has been completely mum on the subject. Very un-Ford like. Maybe he’s just trying to get over the withdrawal?
