    if you can go where you want to go after you try to do what you want to do then I say you should do what you want to do.

    You could kinda do both, truck then illegals in from Mexico becuase we all know....

    Got out of bed, wasn't feeling too good
    With my wallet and my passport, a new pair of shoes
    The sun is shining so I head for the park,
    With a bottle of Tequila, and a new pack of cigarettes

    I got a cousin and she got a friend,
    Who thought that her aunt knew a man who could help
    At his apartment I knocked on the door,
    He wouldn't come out until he got paid.
    Now don't tell anybody what I wanna do
    If they find out you know that they'll never let me through, cos

    It's no fun being an illegal alien, no
    It's no fun being an illegal alien

    Down at the office had to fill out the forms
    A pink one, a red one, the colours you choose,
    Up to the counter to see what they think
    They said "it doesn't count man, it ain't written in ink".
    I don't trust anybody, least not around here, cos

    It's no fun being an illegal alien, I tell ya
    It's no fun being an illegal alien, no no no no no
    It's no fun being an illegal alien, I mean it when I tell ya that
    It's no fun being an illegal alien,
    An illegal alien, O.K.

    Consideration for your fellow man
    Would not hurt anybody, it sure fits in with my plan
    Over the border, there lies the promised land
    Where everything comes easy, you just hold out your hand

    Keep your suspicions, I've seen that look before
    But I ain't done nothing wrong now, is that such a suprise
    But I've got a sister who'd be willing to oblige
    She will do anything now to help me get to the outside

    So don't tell anybody what I wanna do
    If they find out you know that they'll never let me through, because

    It's no fun being an illegal alien, I tell ya
    It's no fun being an illegal alien, and it's getting me down
    It's no fun being an illegal alien, no no no no no
    It's no fun being an illegal alien, yeah yeah yeah

    It's no fun (not much fun) being an illegal alien, I tell ya that
    It's no fun being an illegal alien, I tell ya
    It's no fun being an illegal alien, no no no
    It's no fun (not bloody much fun) being an illegal alien,
    It's no fun being an illegal alien, and that's what I am.

    most things i'm used to liking to eat don't grow where i'd like to live, though a lot of them grow where i do live. but what grows where i want to live i could get by on too.

    down here we got lettice and tomatoes and even rice and avacadoes. a little further up the hill where it's cooler and i'd much much much rather be, tomatoes don't do so well and neither does lettice, but cabbage and root crops do just fine. i got king of tired of radishes and carrots when i lived up there when i was going to high school and we had this little tiney half acre, but peaches and appricots and pears grow up there just fine too. except orchards take a few years to get started. miner's lettice, and blackberries are among the staples that grow wild up there. the indiginous staff of life was acorn mush, but that's a lot of work and the flavour isn't exactly gormet. pine nuts are good and are of course wild too. chickens for eggs and goats for milk sounds ok, but that does sort of lock you into that being your life full time. just like hunting and gathering would.

    still i'd give anything for a little piece of land if i could live in a country that would let me build and live in the kind of shelter i'd prefer to on it, and grow a few veggies. cabbage and spuds did just fine up there. and i seem to recall some kinds of pumpkins and mellons and squash did too.

    our landlord where we live has fruit trees and tomatoes and peppers and of course the lemon bush that's in our part of the yard that we get to pick to our heart's content. he shares with us and that's wonderful. real tomatoes, not those cold storage things you get in the store that tast like styrofoam.

    I'm growing Organic Culinary Herbs-Mushrooms and Flowers.
    It started out as this small idea and now it's a full blown business and I am organizing other farmers in my area to sell at my Barn Green house right in Woodstock.
    I have over 75 Clients waiting for my first crops that are almost ready. I was going to travel and now I can't since I have so much going on here.
    Give it a try!
