And Pretty Soon, He'll Be Directing...

As rumors swirl that Fidel Castro has assumed room temperature, two-bit thug Hugo Chavez assures the great unwashed that Castro is still drawing breath.

Venezuela's Chavez denies rumors of Castro death
CARACAS (Reuters) - Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez said on Sunday Fidel Castro is "writing, and producing," denying rumors circulating on the Internet that the Cuban leader had died.

Chavez, a close 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 rumors are circulating that Fidel Castro has died," Chavez said during his weekly Sunday broadcast. "Fidel is producing, he is writing."

Chavez said he had spoken to Castro on his 81st birthday on Monday.

Rumors had surfaced on Friday that Castro had died from complications resulting from his surgery.
I guess what we noted here Friday is an example of his writing. Can't wait to see what he's producing, other than misery.
