Who’s the third gonna be?

How about someone struck by lightning on the golf course in Hawaii?

[EODGUY]

Just to be completely accurate, wouldn’t that be a 58th state ping.? :))

Interesting thought. Did anyine check the Carter Presidential Library Website. They may have it first. /sarc

Jimmuh was probably there holding his hand on his deathbed.

LOL - I actually owned one of those Hallicrafters SW radios. I’ve never again had as good a receiver.

[BunnySlippers]

Nothing on the Babalu Blog. They are always a good Cuba indicator.

“In latin-america countries today (december 28) is Fools’ Day. Caveat emptor.

I think we have a winner!”

I think you’re right ... though this is much more celebrated in Spain than in Latin America.

A Columbian reporter friend of mine said:

Today is the day of the innocent.

Latinos who tell a lie and then make a joke that it was not true.

A little like our April fools day.

My dad used to have one back in the early 60’s, he wanted to have something during the Cold War, just in case.

I think anything using tubes would survive an EMP attack much better that microcircuits.

Has anyone heard anything from any alert status at Guantanamo Bay?

If, there is crying and gnashing of teeth at the White house, then we can assume Fidel is dead!

[Dubya-M-DeesWent2SyriaStupid!]

On a side note CBS news this morning was ‘reporting’ On Kim’s death.They actually showed people bowing like Obama does on his prayer rug and fainting and crying because his death.They reported it to be factual that the people love him.NOT ONCE did they report that the people were starved and forced to eat tree barque.Not once did they report that it was a BAD communist propaganda news byte.They never once reported that the people were forced to look like the have grief for his death. I know CBS is a communist network for Obama but at least report national politics correctly. It is insane!

It seems as if Fidel has "died" more times than Kenny in South Park.

When he does finally assume room temperature, I'm going to fire up a Partagas #2 in honor of his demise.

[pgkdan]

Good.

[JimRed]

I’m sure that Satan has saved a spot for him, between Joe Stalin and Ted Kennedy (D-HL).

[Eye of Unk]

Today is the latin America day of April Fools day.

Its a prank, unless its coincidence.

Castro is probably laughing his ass off.

[albie]

Only one way to find out...Check airlines to see if Jimmy has booked a flight to Havana.

Personally, I’ll miss Cheetah a lot more. :-)

I agree, Cheetah should have been the story of the day. But then, Cheetah was a kind respectable animal who did no harm.

My father used to tell me that Hitler was still alive and hiding somewhere.

I asked him how he knew.

He replied because FDR had reported looking all over hell for him and couldn't find him.

Dont know about Fidel but Cheetah died:
