    Talking 50th Anniversary of the Cuban Revolution

    Today is the 50th anniversary of Castro's revolution in Cuba (1959, of course)! Still going good and strong! Fantastic!

    Oh, I wasn't asking you, Robby. Sorry! I should have directed it at Never Played. I would have sent you one of my Che Guevara badges if you'd wanted one, though.

    I wouldn't mind living there, but I'm afraid I have the limbs, passport and means to get a ticket/house of a teenager still! Great healthcare there, apparently!

    And great poverty too. That's why people leave the country in masses.

    All the more reason for neverplayed to go. Nothing cures starry-eyed idealism like a serious reality check.

    I for once would probably long be dead by now, had I been born there- and I don't mean for their healthcare. Though now that I think about it, that would be an option too.

    how good or bad Cuba under Castro is debatable of course
    but the revolution was about

    overthrowing the above bloodthirsty greeding bastard
    people always seem to forget that
