We can all thank the folks at Polo's Bastards for bringing us this fine collection of Fidel and Cuba photos while we pack our bags and prepare to flock over when the time comes. (Coughs.) If you didn't know already, Fidel hasn't been feeling too well and Raul is helping out around the little island located approximately 91 miles from the U.S. Whether Fidel has reached the end of the road or not, Cuba is such an amazing country in my book. It's the type of place I'd like to go sit rolling cigars with an old wise lady twice my age discussing politics and they way things were back in Fidel's heyday. Of course my Spanish would be beyond broken and her English the same if not worse, but over time we'll come to understand one another. Wouldn't hurt if there were some Omara Portuondo humming from a radio in the background either, but I won't be too picky here and I'll stop rambling now.
