Yet Another Monty Python Moment
As in: "I'm not dead yet." It appears as if the rumors that started swirling yesterday about the death of Fidel Castro may have been yet another false alarm.
Marzo did say something interesting, that today's rumors did not come from Havana, but from someone much closer to the exile community, likely in Miami, and that Havana is just fine with the rumors since they make the exile community look foolish.
Take this for what it's worth, and I guess it's still possible that the guy is indeed dead, but it's looking more and more like today's news was yet another false rumor.
It could be disinformation to make people look foolish, it could be he's dead - and has been for a while. It could be he's in a vegetative state. Whatever. Cuba is still playing this one tight and is using the opportunity to bash the Cuban exile community. It does not look real promising at the moment.

This is why I am very careful to not publish something, unless I know it’s 100% true… Saves the egg on the face.
Nice Blog BTW…

Yeah, but it was a chance to post the photoshops of Weekend at Bernie’s again - always worth it!

You simply cannot trust Fidel about anything. Now the sleazeball is still breathing.
