And you have demonstrated your deep concern for others with your
sensitivity, empathy, and class for months. I'm attaching the appropriate
weight to your advice.

It's easy to go to Cuba.

1) Don't be a US citizen
2) Go to Cuba

How easy is that?

Default The Facts About Going To Cuba

"Don't be a US citizen"

That is the most INTELLIGENT statement I have read on this newsgroup.
I am not an American, and I enjoy my freedom to travel to Cuba as often as I
like.

If you are an American, please stay out of Cuba.
There is nothing there for you.
No casinos, no KFC, no Budweiser.

The last thing Cuba needs, is American corruption !

Default The Facts About Going To Cuba

Who the hell would want to be an American?
I certainly do not.

Americans have the highest per capita rate of obesity in the entire world.
You cannot blame the fast food industry for this epidemic.
It's your own god damn lazy *** fault.
"I'd better inhale this double cheese bacon burger before someone else
does," mentality !
Americans are greedy, selfish, bastards with no self control.

I agree. I think it would be more interesting now then after Castro.
I fear that when his regime falls, it will turn into one big, ugly Cancun.

Speaking of which, most americans wouldn't realise there are more
cuban doctors working in africa and developing countries than
american ones, or from pretty much any other country. As well,
they sponsor medical school positions for a whole gamut of
foreign countries, especially from other caribbean islands.

They do put a tiny 1cm square stamp, hardly visible, on something
like page 12 of your passport. (I asked for the big, bold one).

No, you cannot. But don't discount Honduran cigars, there are some
amazing smokes available there.

Yes, I am and wish you well too;)
