Superstorm Sandy has caused a lot of damage. People have died, homes have been destroyed, businesses have been ruined. Americans across the country are reaching out by donating money, time, food, and clothing, but they're also reaching out with message of hope in the blog NOLA To New York.
Drug smugglers try to get across the border fence in a multitude of different ways, ranging from digging tunnels to climbing the wall. But a particularly industrious group tried to do it with a little engineering... and failed miserably.
