Brother Sez Fidel Castro Doing Well
2006-10-31
Gotta maintain the illusion as long as possible ...
HAVANA (AP) - Fidel Castro's older brother said Monday the Cuban leader is doing well and that the family will try to make him rest more before he goes back to work.

"He is well, he's been resting a bit because of the operation he had," Ramon Castro, 82, told reporters at a trade fair outside Havana. "It's been published that he's going to start working again. We're trying to hold him back a bit longer though."
Awww, they're giving him time to finish his Sudoku puzzle...

I'm sure we can do something about that. Maybe the Council of Psychics can give him a brain clot.

#3  It would be a truly fitting tribute to the great Cuban People's Revolution to embalm Fidel and put the remains upright behind his favorite pulpit accompanied by a tape loop endlessly playing his top 100 speeches. It would be like the great leader never left us (sniff).

#2  It doesn't look like he's going to be giving any more of his marathon speeches ever again. Not standing up, anyway!

#1  He's walking. Reads the newspapers daily. Expect him back on his skateboard anytime now.
