Fidel Castro Marks 77th (http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story2&cid=589&u=/ap/20030813/ap_on_re_la_am_ca/cuba_castro&ncid=716) Birthday Today
Aug. 13th, 2003


HAVANA - Fidel Castro (news - web sites), the world's longest ruling leader, turns 77 Wednesday after a year that saw his communist-run island grow even more isolated as he lashed out at his European allies and jailed some of his most vocal critics.

"Cuba does not need the help of the European Union to survive", Castro told an enthusiastic crowd of about 10,000 supporters in the eastern city of Santiago on July 26 as he celebrated the 50th anniversary of the start of the Cuban revolution.

I'll imagine he'll celebrate with a cigar and watching a dissident be shot. I'm more interested in celebrating the fact that he's one year closer to his Deathday. ;)
