Things people still wish they hadn't written

"Opening up the health insurance market to more vigorous nationwide competition, as we have done over the last decade in banking, would provide more choices of innovative products less burdened by the worst excesses of state-based regulation."
--John McCain Sept/Oct 2008 issue of Contingincies Magazine.

Ellen Degeneres on Prop 8

My Political Point... And I Do Have One - The Ellen DeGeneres Show:

"The wording of Prop 8 is tricky. It’s like if someone asked you, “You don’t want dessert, right?” But you do want dessert so you say, “Yes,” which really means you don’t want dessert. And if you say, “No,” which means you do want dessert -- it sounds like you don’t. Either way, you don’t get what you want. See -- confusing. Just like Prop. 8.

So, in case I haven’t made myself clear, I’m FOR gay marriage. And in order to protect that right -- please VOTE NO on Proposition 8. And now that you’re informed, spread the word. I’m begging you. I can’t return the wedding gifts -- I love my new toaster."

I think Ellen pretty much killed Prop 8 with this video.

You just listed a good way for it to go.

Yankee Stadium's fate more eBay than eternal -- Newsday.com:

"There is probably no tasteful way to do away with Baseball's Cathedral; cathedrals, after all, are usually built to be left there. But at least there will not be some spectacular, timed implosion that reduces the stadium to a burst of dust. No, its end will come in the form of a clinical disassemblage, with workers given time to preserve the building's numerous saleable and enshrineable parts."

And we don't even get the satisfaction of watching it blown to dust. They're just gonna take Yankee Stadium apart piece by piece so everyone can have a $99.95 chunk of the True Yankee Cross.
