Quote of the Day 8/29

"The word today is that an apparently unbeatable ticket could be Hillary for president and Obama as her running mate."

- Fidel Castro, the dying dictator has been writing essays and editorials in Cuban newspapers for the past week. Rumors claim he's already dead, but it seems Castro, who has been a thorn in the side of 10 US presidents (that's gotta be a record), is using his last gasp to write memoirs and recommendations.

Quote of the Day 8/25

"Fidel is fine and is very disciplined about his recovery."

- Cuba's Foreign Minister Perez Roque. Fidel Castro relinquished power last year, but, according to the Cuban government, is still consulted on major policy decisions. The 81 year old is said to be in good health, despite rumors (hopes in much of the Cuban- American community) that he died since his last public appearance on June 5.

In my mind the unanswered question remains:

How is Fidel Castro only 81???
