I would probably drag down downtown Sherbrooke for you if you ever sighted me there... I'm generally in work clothes that are probably worse than what most homeless people are wearing and completely unashamed of it.

Worse even, if you spotted me at the Colebrook gas station and Dunkin Donuts after I'm fresh out of the woods (generally dismantling abandoned beaver dams) and wet and muddy from head to toe...

Or even worse, lunchtime at the Subway or pizzeria in Contrecoeur (eastern edge of Montreal's south shore) while we're at the ArcelorMittal steel mill... I sometimes look like a black guy and/or those classic coal miners. We're usually briefly stopping for lunch and are going to go back for more right after it, so it's kinda pointless to bother to clean up for something as fleeting as lunchtime. I figure, it's a steel mill town, they must be used to it. After all, my face may be black, but my money is still green. (Well, technically, only my twenties are... but I always pay via credit card anyway.)

It was a joke. I'm sure Ford will imply that though. I mean, no way would he lend his car out to a failed rehab buddy who gets pissed up before driving, right?

Yeah, yeah, I know we're supposed to view alcoholism and drug addiction as diseases and have pity for people and all their resulting fuckups, but I have literally zero compassion for someone who gets behind the wheel impaired, under any circumstance. That is ALWAYS something you choose to do. Period.

Reading the story on a couple of sites. this is kinda interesting to see where this goes. Apparently she got the keys from Fords room. She has been out of rehab for a week but may have gone back for a "visit". noticed how Doug and the Lawyer have stated they will wait for more info before making any comments. how unnatural for these two not to make quick comments to deflect.

Well judging by the behaviour of one of this rehab centre's graduates a week out things don't look too promising for Kool Aid Man.

this was almost certainly the result of some sketchy behavior.

Fresh fish, fresh fish...


betcha a billion dollars she was off on a secret booze/dope run for RoFo.

The missing license plates...all too neat. Except RoFo is that dumb to think he could be stealthy. Not without DoFo to provide instructions.

Was he smoking crack or drinking from a brown bag? This rehab centre sounds really strict.

i heard you can only smoke crack between 7 and 9 p.m., and that even if you want more after that you can't have any.

there's apparently an hour for "cooldown drinking," though, which makes sense.

well, look: rehab is fun and all, but it's not like he's going to give up the blow.

maybe cut down on the day drinking and quit settling for the rock, but the man needs his powder.

Hobbies include smoking crack, stealing toothbrushes at Zellers, marrying deadbeats, getting pushed around by RoFo, and eating vast quantities of fast food.
