Sounds like the guys in the bright yellow Ford truck some months ago... same story. I want them to build me one. How cool would it be to fishing in a Corvette?

I usually have little sympathy for illegal migrants, but I really truly do feel sorry for them. Those two cars must have been worth a fortune in Cuba, and now they'll be stuck in CUba with a huge monetary loss. However, I realize that the US government can't break the rules just for them.

Actually the US could "break" the rules by recending them since they make the rules. Why the US doesn't allow Cuban refugees is beyond me.

Refugee does not equal illegal imigrant. At least in my befuddled world.
