<< Time and money and the reality of a son permitting, i would take my son to Cuba. >>

Tourists stuff their faces while the residents go hungry, and their sons and daughters prostitute themselves in the streets. This is Fido Castro's great revolution "against" his own people.

I'm sure that you and your son-to-be would learn a great lesson in morality from your trip to Cuba.

<< No reason to take him to Miami of course, we could just watch a few of those cop shows on TV, risking only our minds and not our precious skins. >>

Risking your skins? Aren't you living in Mexico? Most of the country is a very dangerous place to live. I've got friends in Mexico who have tall walls with barbed wire on top. It's in one of the better neighborhoods. If they see a strange car anywhere on the street where they live, they circle the block until the car leaves.

I've lived in Miami for about 40 years, and I have never been a victim of crime. I've done a lot of partying down here and have been out all hours of the night, many, many times without an incident. Of course, with age, I've had to slow down, but I still feel very safe.

<< Please don't ever change. Never learn anything. >>

That's funny. Oh well. Perhaps, one day, you will get to go to Cuba. And, you might even get to see Fido Castro and ask for his autograph. You might just get it. But! If you've learned anything from me, remember: If Castro drops the autograph, don't bend over to pick it up! <g>
