Did You Know...

The Miami Herald spotlights Babalu Blog, a fresh, funny, and fiercely anti-Castro blog run by Valentin Prieto. Here’s a taste:

A couple of men walking home in Cuba get arrested for “hanging out in a tourist zone” and I am here in exile telling fidel castro to kiss my ass.

Somewhere on that island, in quite a few somewheres actually, there are independent journalists and librarians rotting away in castro’s gulags simply because they attempted to do exactly what I do here on this blog.

Freedom is a beautiful thing, folks. Take it in. Hold it. Embrace it. Bask in it. Revel in it. Not everyone is blessed with it.

Oh, and, fidel? Kiss my ass.

Been meaning to blogroll him for a while now. Make him a regular read!
