maryportfuncity 10,017 Posted January 31, 2007 Castro recovering strongly in new video Recovering sure, but strongly? If that's the best they can muster since July the long term doesn't look good. In other words, if he's in yer current Weatherman team you might be on a hiding to nothing, but I'm guessing 100+ DDP teams could be cashing in on their pick.

Canadian Paul 93 Posted February 3, 2007 Forgive me for posting something about Castro here (especially if it's already been posted, but f**k if I can find it amongst all this) but Chavez sez Castro recovering goodly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest castrosoondead Posted February 3, 2007 I say castro will NOT recover so he will be dead soon! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Phantom 2,469 Posted February 4, 2007 I say castro will NOT recover so he will be dead soon! You've changed your tune a bit. I thought you said he was dead already? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Monoclinic 39 Posted February 4, 2007 I say castro will NOT recover so he will be dead soon! Newsflash: No one recovers from life, so we all die. Also depending on your viewpoint re. time, we will all soon be dead. If you consider that this universe is a speculative 15 billion years old then 10, 20 years is nothing. Which leads me to a tedious link (and one of my favourite Python songs!) Just remember that you're standing on a planet that's evolving and revolving at nine thousand miles an hour. It's orbiting at nineteen miles a second, so it's reckoned, round the sun that is the source of all our power. Now the sun, and you and me, and all the stars that we can see, are moving at a million miles a day. In the outer spiral arm, at fourteen thousand miles an hour, of a galaxy we call the Milky Way. Our galaxy itself contains a hundred million stars, it's a hundred thousand light-years side to side. It bulges in the middle sixteen thousand light-years thick, but out by us it's just three thousand light-years wide. We're thirty thousand light-years from Galactic Central Point, we go 'round every two hundred million years. And our galaxy itself is one of millions of billions in this amazing and expanding universe. Our universe itself keeps on expanding and expanding, in all of the directions it can whizz. As fast as it can go, that's the speed of light, you know, twelve million miles a minute and that's the fastest speed there is. So remember, when you're feeling very small and insecure, how amazingly unlikely is your birth; And pray that there's intelligent life somewhere out in space, cause there's bugger all down here on Earth!

maryportfuncity 10,017 Posted February 4, 2007 I doubt very much he's dead already. Apart from anything else the US have enough intelligence on the ground to ensure such news would get out, and they would want it out! Not a well man, mind, picked on my deadpool teams.

Banshees Scream 107 Posted February 4, 2007 I'm sure others have been more informed then I have, so my question is if Fidel Castro should recover to stable health what are the chances of him regaining power of Cuba? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Monoclinic 39 Posted February 4, 2007 I'm sure others have been more informed then I have, so my question is if Fidel Castro should recover to stable health what are the chances of him regaining power of Cuba? I hear there is an inkling of squids gathering in Varadero poised for action. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Death in Vegas 3 Posted February 8, 2007 Proof, if proof be need be that Castro's got a bit left in him yet, although the slightly cryptic comment about Cuba being "ready for Mr Castro's eventual death" suggests he's still a good bet for this year. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/americas/6343915.stm Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No Mere Nosebleed 0 Posted February 16, 2007 Castro recovering nicely according to his son.Look slike you wont get a no 1 hit this year folks! I don't believe this for one minute. Propaganda, pure and simple. I'm convinced that Castro won't see the year out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
maryportfuncity 10,017 Posted February 16, 2007 I'm with NMN; the 'complete recovery' comment sounds hollow the point of the poor kid being in complete denial. I backed this one on every deadpool team I filed for January 1st and I'm still hopeful of cashing in the points. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Guest Posted February 16, 2007 Look folks I think we all just have to accept that Fidel has done it again-hes defied death and will probably be in charge for years to come.He will die one day of old age,maybe inm his 80s,maybe in his 90s.But he won't die because of this illness.Not this year.Its time to move on.We got it wrong.Lets be humble and admit it.

Canadian Paul 93 Posted February 19, 2007 So I had this weird dream last night where I met Fidel Castro in the airport and he took me to Cuba so that I could learn Spanish for my trip to Puerto Rico. I remember waking up this morning and, in morning haze, thinking to myself that I should sign in to DL so that I could tell you all that Castro was doing well. No squids, Satans or undead gay orgies though, sorry guest. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DevonDeathTrip 2,290 Posted February 19, 2007 The expat Cuban populace of Miami and the surrounding area comprise of one of the most odious, self pitying, nauseating and reactionary group of disenfranchised people you are ever likely to meet. I hope they all drown in Pepsi and cheeseballs. Traitors. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
