Fidel's up and at 'em

It seems that rumors of Fidel's failing health are being debunked left and right. Last week, he was mixing it up with his homey Hugo Chavez on the phone, saying he was feeling great, then taking a walk with close friend Gabriel García Márquez. For all who thought that this was just a bunch of hearsay, Colombian daily El Tiempo has published proof today that Fidel is walking among the living (with Gabo) and still wearing that Adidas warm-up suit:

Spain's El País republished the photo, and quotes García Márquez as saying on Monday, "Fidel is doing very well, a lot better than what people think." So if Gabo is to be trusted, we still have Castro para rato.
