Castro: not alive and not kicking
Do you really believe Castro is still alive? Anyone who's seen the video of him dressed in his track suit, looking like a Canadian athlete at the Olympics, has got to wonder. It's almost as if he's trying to break into a bit o' the old soft shoe but can't quite make it. The close-up of his eyes -- doesn't he look bewildered, or at least like he's staring into somebody's headlights on a dark road?
I think he died two years ago, from complications after some hush-hush abdominal surgery. But they weren't ready to let him go yet, they had to see what the country would be like if his brother slid uncomfortably into a position of power. Fidel's status was kept secret, just in case, just in case . . .
And, just in case things didn't look that great, and they wanted people to think he was in fact on the mend, they took his body, propped it up and video-taped the now-famous track suit segment for future use.
Think about it. Someone that power-hungry doesn't email his intention to quit; he stands in front of a microphone and talks about it for two hours.
You'll see. There'll be an announcement some day that he died and was cremated immediately, according to his wishes. And only those of us who are reaaalllly smart will ever know the truth.
