Deport me, please

Seems an illegal immigrant wants to go home, but doesn't have the money. So he turned himself into the police:
Police in Framingham, Mass., say an illegal immigrant from Guatemala entered a police station, told officers he had stolen another man's identity and asked to be deported because he could no longer make ends meet in America.

Police told The MetroWest Daily News they arrested 29-year-old Carlos Boc after he confessed Saturday night.

Lt. Paul Shastany said Boc told police he wanted to return to Guatemala but can't afford a ticket. He told police he has no job or money and is worried about surviving the winter. He told police he came to the U.S. 13 years ago.
Maybe we could take up a collection to help see him on his way.

...Wait.

Hold on a second.

This is right out of Cheech and Chong's "Up In Smoke", isn't it?

I think he has a wedding to go to.

USPS Flat Rate box is $13.95 - 12"x12"x5.5".

If you spring for the box, I'll make him fit.
