At the top of our heap of stories, Rob Ford's administration finally passes a budget while simultaneously voting against it in a landmark move being described as "breathtakingly idiotic."  Deflecting attention from Ford's record-breaking attempt at lunacy, ally and goon-at-large Giorgio Mammoliti floats the idea of a boat casino to increase revenue in place of sanity.  Mammoliti eased fears that this was another Simpson's joke waiting to happen by suggesting that if the boat were to fail, it could simply be put out to sea, perhaps to later form its own independent nation-state and rhythm and blues dance troupe.
