I hope the Castro being a "cool dude" was sarcasm. They dont get more pitiful than that guy.

Nah, I can think of more pitiful people. He offered medicine, among other things. That wasn't to get his illegal port back online. It was to help people. Yeah, maybe he's thinking ahead to when Cuba gets raped by a hurricane or something, hoping we would offer aid, but I don't think his offering help was all that bad a thing. Maybe I'm just naive or not up on current events, but what horrid things has Cuba done to us in the recent past? Sell us illegal cigars? So they're communist. I think a certain overpopulated country in Asia is as well, but we're okay with them.

The worst day fishing is better than the best day working. ...Wait a minute, my work IS fishing. Sweet.

Have you any idea what Castro has done to his people over the years?? He's as bad as they come.

How about the Cuban Missile Crisis? And yes Castro was involved.

The CMC happened when my Dad was young enough and skinny enough to be over there involved in it. That was pretty darn long ago. And Castro's not doing anything to us personally now. Maybe he is a jerkbag to his own people, but why not accept aid? If my neighbor beat his wife and I refused to even look towards his house for years, when my house caught fire and he came outside with a hose, I would not tell him to turn it off.

Money is crucial to the problem...without it workers can't help educate the African people.
