I Guess Free Health Care Isn’t Enough

Crazy Foreigners

The same two Cubans who tried to reach America with a floating Chevy flatbed truck are trying again with a 1959 Buick.

Marciel Basanta Lopez and Luis Gras Rodriguez, who were sent back to Cuba in July after they failed to reach Florida in a converted 1951 Chevy pickup, were allegedly at the helm of the newest vehicle-boat conversion… Relatives in Cuba told Basanta’s cousin, Kiriat Lopez, who lives in Lake Worth, that they knew the men were planning a second escape attempt.  “My cousin isn’t crazy. He wants to be free,” Lopez told the newspaper. “That’s how crazy he is.”

  1. Now THAT’S a low-rider.

    I like that quote: “my cousin isn’t crazy. He wants to be free, that’s how crazy he is.”

    Right up there with “Democracy, Whiskey! Sexy!”

  2. Does anyone else think the photo above looks like a really shitty FARK photoshop job? With a caption: “In America, even life rafts have tailfins!”

  3. Now that you mention it - yes.  But life is stranger than even the wierdos at Fark can imagine.

  5. The infliction of cruelty with a good conscience is a delight to moralists. That is why they invented Hell. by free casino online
