"Castro dead" rumor fades; "Castro gay" rumor rises
O to be Lucky Pierre in the middle of this sandwich:
El Jefe is bombarding Cuba's official media of clips of himself with Venezuelan Huey Long Hugo Chavez, dispelling rumors that he is dead or comatose and paving the way for his 140-year reign, a term of office that ominously promises plenty of footage of hotblooded Caribbean boys in winter. The full TV clip of the two world leaders spread out in scarlet bedclothes is slightly less compromising. Slightly.
