But if his Doctor Said That, How do You Explain This?
I'm very confused. In May, the doctor who heads Cuban Dictator Fidel Castro's medical team said Castro would live to be 140 years old. Now it appears that Castro is gravely ill. Castro is just days away from celebrating his 80th birthday, which is an impressive milestone, but 60 years short of age 140. So, if he's going to live to be 140, how exactly can he be this ill at age 80? I just don't understand. If my incompetent, degenerate ex-brother-in-law made the original diagnosis, the story would make more sense. Short of that, I'm baffled.

Why ask why. Especially if you *live* in Cuba. Which you don't, I don't think. So, I guess you can ask. Your ex-BIL might be just the person to ask, in fact. Shamanize it.

Are we surprised that a communist government is having trouble with numbers?

i think their unit of measure over there is different than ours. they use gerbil years or something, not human years. i can't explain it, but i think what it all means is that castro's brother is calling the shots from here on out.
:P

Castro may not live to be 140, but he lived longer then jesus. Castro and Jesus have a lot in common. Both have been persecuted in their time by a greater power. Castro brought the world close to the end of days, helping out Jesus. Both hate Hispanics. Both dig women named Mary. Both look good with facial hair. So much more in common, St. Fidel.
