Chavez denies rumours of Castro death
2007-08-20
Damn, and Seafarious already did the dead parrot routine! Foiled again!
Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez says Fidel Castro is Stable™ "writing, and producing," denying rumours circulating on the internet that the Cuban leader had died. Mr Chavez, a close lover ally of Castro, has frequently provided information about the health of the ailing Communist leader who temporarily stepped aside after undergoing emergency abdominal surgery a year ago.

"On the Internet rumours are circulating that Fidel Castro has died," Mr Chavez said during his weekly Sunday broadcast. "Fidel is Stable™ producing, he is writing."

Mr Chavez said he had spoken to Castro on his 81st birthday on Monday.
Ouija boards are nice.
Rumours had surfaced on Friday that Castro had died from complications resulting from his surgery.
