Clinton: I let my family down. I let my country down. But I am trying to make it right.
Back in Washington, Capitol Hill was anticipating the arrival of the Independent Counsel's report into the Lewinsky affair. Even before the Starr report was transported to the hill in vans, leading House republicans and democrats met to discuss how it would be handled. High on the agenda was the issue of just how much will be made public. REP. NEWT GINGRICH/SPEAKER OF THE HOUSE: CBS News has learned that Starr alleges in his report that high crimes and misdemeanors have been committed, that there has been obstruction of justice and that the president lied under oath in the Paula Jones case. Lawmakers will soon see the report with their own eyes. REP. RICHARD GEPHARDT/D-MINORITY LEADER: Next to declaring war this is the most important thing we can do etc. Before leaving for Florida, the President met with a group of senior congressional democrats at the White House saying, again, that he's sorry for all the trouble he's caused. The group forgave him. REP. DAVID BONIOR/HOUSE MINORITY WHIP/D-MI.))

The popular ride at Walt Disney World closed Monday after 27 years of service.
The ride was not your typical Disney fare.
It was based on the Wind in the Willows tale in which Mister Toad steals a car.
Along the way he runs into a gunfight and is even killed in a head on collision with a train.
The truly devoted can still go to Disneyland in California where the ride will keep on running.
