Yes. My friends are all personal friends with Fidel himself. Oh noes111! You blew my deeeep cover.

Its not an insult to say that your above commentary is idiotic. Its a fact that it is.

No matter, keep on spewing your dark fantasies here. I'll continue to carry on as usual ... talking to my friends in Cuba, Facebooking with them, texting with them, writing letters, etc etc.
