No justice in the world: Casto to live to "at least 140"
 Cuban dictator President Fidel Castro, who turns 80 this year, enjoys vibrant health and will live to 140, his chief doctor said.
| I consider that a good sign. They usually say things like that a couple weeks before the guy dies. |
Doctor Eugenio Selman-Housein, who heads Castro's medical team, denied that the longtime leader has Parkinson's disease, as the CIA reportedly believes. "Every day they invent a new one," Selman-Housein said. "He will live 140 years."
| "Nothing to see here. Move along..." |
Castro's health, once a taboo subject in the communist-led island, has become a topic of rejoicing discussion since he fainted in public in 2001 and slipped and fell before television cameras in October 2004.
| "Nurse! He's doing it again!" |
Castro, who quit smoking his trademark cigars in 1986, has tormented led Cuba since 1959. He turns 80 on August 13.
Let's hope he doesn't make it.
