I love how politicans fight over what to name things. The lastof the Big Dig tunnels is nearly complete and now theres flack over what to name it. I beleive the gov wants it named as a memorail to the vets, while the statesman want to name it after former speaker Tip Oneil. I think both ideas suck. First off there are thousands of generic "vetern" memorials. WHo needs another. 2nd, I hate nameing things after politicians who really do nothing other than spend taxpayers money.

I think we should name it after the people responsible for its creation. "The Taxpayer Memorial Tunnel". For all the taxpayers have done for this country I think its damn time we got a memorial.


ps The other tunnel is named after famed baseball player Ted Williams.

The Money Pit seems appropriate.

Or maybe the "Whitey Bulger Tunnel"? Maybe he'll turn up for the dedication and the police can finally arrest him.
