He never struck me as a quitter...

More time to smoke those cigars, I guess.

Yes, it seems to be official: Castro is no longer El Presidente. Yes, you might have heard it here first.

I would think that if I were "President for Life," I'd at least ride it out to the logical conclusion. Then again, he's been in pretty rough shape the last few years, so maybe this is for the best.

So what does this mean for U.S.-Cuban relations? How the heck should I know. I think our resident political expert Nic Ouzo will weigh in on this when it seems the right time to do so. As it is, I'm not going to say much of anything because I don't really know.

Let's just hope that now we can get our capitalist hand on some of those primo cigars we've been denied for so long. Sure, I could just get some in Canada, but that's beside the point.
