The boilers in our new stadium are corrupt

Probably installed by Toyota.

City Councilman Larry B. Seabrook surrendered to city and federal authorities in Manhattan on Tuesday to face a 13-count indictment accusing him of money laundering, extortion and fraud in a series of schemes that included helping a close associate win a contract to install boilers in the new Yankee Stadium.

Those Wall Streets in the sky boxes? They better bring cans of Sterno, because on those cold nights in April, the heat cannot be trusted.

Wow, my councilman is famous!

Also note that he changed a receipt for a $7 order of a bagel and soda (must have been bought at Yankee Stadium) to $177.
