5 Castro reportedly in grave condition

10¢ he's got an archipelago of erupting fistulas from head to toe.

6 but if it's very widespread, or if abscesses form, or if the bacteria are multi-drug resistant then you have the best case scenario.

There, fixed it for you.

7 ... in grave condition. Does that mean Castro's ready for interment? Score 1 for the headline writer.

16 According to this article on MSNBC, the ol' bastard had seven operations in one day because of stitching problems, and three failed operations for diverticulitis. I don't know much about medicine, but, ooooh, that can't be good.

Next headline: "South Florida Experiences Acute Rum Shortage in Wake of Castro's Passing; Hollywood Appalled"

18 Apparently in this worker's paradise with its fabled high quality medical care they couldn't find a Cuban doctor able to treat diverticulitus.

20 How soon after he becomes "STABLE like FRANCO" will we be able to wheel and deal over all those antique cars in Cuba?

25 Might be more fun if he goes chronic, but lingers on long enough to watch Cuba open up.
