sharkbait is an unknown quantity at this point
Just to bring a note of reality,the reason most sailors go to Havana is that they can get whores as cheap as the drinks.A recipie for happiness if you ask me.

Actually, that might be a definition of Happiness... but of course has nothing whatsoever to do with the reason I want to go to Cuba (grin)

ebs,
You seem to never miss an opportunity to miss the point. But then the article did contain some minor criticism of Castro so I guess that would naturally lead one to a discussion of Wal-mart.

I could be wrong, but I haven't heard of Walmart throwing any disgruntled employees in prisons or torturing them. Also, last I knew, people had a choice whether to work at Walmart or elsewhere. Minor points, I know, in the broader scope of life.

Cam,
Nice post and article. I'll bet our fellow travellers have no comment or some lame excuse as to how it was his fault.
