Movin to Cali
Can't take this Ontario winter any more. I've been wanting to move down to Cali for the last 4 years or so. Any way around the visa stuff? I don't plan on going as a student.
I really just want to relocate and be able to live there. I have family in San Francisco, and I lived in Florida for just over a year when I was kid. Is there anyway I can get down there and stay, without waiting 10 years to get a greencard or enter the lottery (which Canadians can't even enter anymore I've heard).
Toronto sucks, please take me to Cali

This is meant to be a serious post.
Cav won't be coming. Hopefully I can sell it and find my Datsun 240 or 280 Z and drive there, down the coast, all that stuff.
I'm skilled in tv/video, but that's not why I want to go down there.
I would do the illegal move there thing, but how am I supposed to make a living then? Don't wanna be a street kid hah.
