From Fidel Castro: SURPRISE!!!

From the news this afternoon:

Cuba's Castro: I quit as party chief 5 years ago   

By PAUL HAVEN, Associated Press

HAVANA – Fidel Castro's surprise announcement that he stepped down as head of the Communist Party five years ago — despite widespread belief he remained in charge — marks the bizarre end of an era for a nation, and a man, whose fates have been intertwined for more than half a century.

That Fidel.

Such a kidder.
