kill-region without modifying the kill ring

is there a way or an idiom for killing a region without changing the kill ring.
I often want to cut several different regions by highlighting them, but then 
insert a particular thing with C-Y.  If I use C-W to kill the region C-Y will 
yank back the string I just killed rather than the one I want.

It would be nice to have a version of C-W which does not effect the kill-ring.
