Today is Cuba Solidarity Day;

May 21 has great historic significance as it falls within a two-week period in which Cubans throughout the island remember those that have suffered under the Castro regime while struggling for freedom and human rights.

Sign the petition to release Cuba’s prisoners of conscience and stop by Babalu Blog to learn about “the most dangerous man in Cuba” and here to read the President’s Proclamation. This blog always stands with the Cuban people, wherever they live.

Henry Gomez bestowed upon me the title of honorary Cuban a few months back, a title I’m very proud of, so stop by and give him my best.

I used that line during a trip to Acapulco back in the ’60s to win hearts and minds. It worked until some yahoo tried to steal my watch.

Do I win anything?

In truth the version running through mind just now was mixed with spoken English, but I can’t find a link. But it was The Sandpipers.

And I will be prepared when we meet to sing it. You will regret having asked.

I have since learned that it has been attributed to Marti. A bit sad that, my motives for using the line were baser.
