Bonsai: A hateful curse that means "May you live a thousand years."

At 84 Castro is disillusioned with his own lifetime of actions, goals and dreams.

The fact he can rebound from this realization is testament to the remarkable nature of his character.

A few decades too late, but nice to see the old bastard come to his senses.

Dragom beat me to it and said it better than I might have.

[ShepherdsDog]

The only ones in a communist society who don't have to worry are those running the show.

[Wada]

So far not all people are willing to put aside the greedy nature that democracy thrives on. I dream of the day, but I'm not holding my breath.

It seemed like a good idea at the time. -Castro

[Wada]

Well, it's the best any of us can do.

How many times have those words been uttered after the police, ambulance or fire department have had to show up?

[Dragom]

Didn't Mao have to die before China started their reform?

Interesting and hopeful news Hyack, made my morning coffee.

As president, Raul Castro has instituted a series of limited economic reforms, and has warned Cubans that they need to start working harder and expecting less from the government.

Pamper them all their lives and when they mature, kick them out to fend for themselves
I hope you can get it done without too much fighting

So Cuba is going to go down China's road?
