Out of the Blue

This is insane... April showers are supposed to bring May flowers, so what are April snowstorms supposed to bring? Snowplows? Tears to the eyes of cabin-feverish webmasters?

I don't know either. But I do know this... this isn't right. Here's an authentic HTML recreation of the view from my window:

There you go... you've heard of the expression 'the next best thing to being there'? If it's spring-like in your area, this is better than being there.

Stowing away to get into the US...

People do that like nobody's business to get into the UK too, so don't think you're special because you have a load of border jumpers. People stow away underneath the Eurostar (the cross channel train from France to England) all the time, or stow away in lorries (and either freeze or cook to death and die) or on boats. And is it really that easy to walk into the country and get a job? As an illegal immigrant? I'll wager your country isn't half as easy on immigrants as you're making out.
