See, as per the above, this would work. Cuba takes 200 miles, the USA takes 200 miles, but since they overlap, they have to take half of the difference between the two countries. It's still pretty lame. Why should I care if Cubans come over here? They're not going to take my job. My job went to India. Quzah. |

It's incredibly cruel to just sink something that someone's obviously put a whole lot of time into.

Saw this in the local news today. Our fair and impartial immigration dept is hard at work!
Two on floating truck get chance for visas Associated Press HAVANA -- Two of the people who converted a 1951 Chevy pickup into a boat in a failed bid to reach American shores were granted interviews giving them a chance to get U.S. visas, one of the men said Wednesday. Ariel Diego and Luis Grass received letters from the U.S. Interests Section inviting them to interviews on Dec. 3. Such interviews do not guarantee being granted a visa. "At least this is an option we have," Diego told journalists. "The possibility still exists." The U.S. Coast Guard sent the group back to Cuba in July after a U.S. Customs plane spotted their unusual truck-boat floating south of Key West in the Florida straits. The craft came within 40 miles of the U.S. coast. Under U.S. immigration policies, Cubans who reach U.S. shores are allowed to stay while those caught at sea are usually returned. |

The U.S. Coast Guard (news - web sites) is seen intercepting a group of Cuban migrants sailing towards the Florida Straits on a modified 1959 Buick Tuesday February 3, 2004. The pilots were the same two men who tried to sail a converted 1951 Chevy flatbed truck to the U.S. last year. Nine other migrants, including wives and children. (AP Photo/photo released by CBS4 )

And they like green. I suppose they'll sink the Buick, too.

It could be the Vodka, but that BRIGHT GREEN TRUCK floating across the water just rocks! Wouldn't that be a trip to see? Especially high. That'd be great. Sitting on the beach, a bright green truck floats by!

Wouldn't it have been easier for them to use an original VW bug?

That's too damn funny. Reminds me a lot of a guy in Venice who makes floating cars.

The original Bug floated on it's own. Didn't need to be made out of wood. It's how they were constructed.
