I'd wager it is a false alarm. Having lived in Miami for ten years and rescued thousands of Cuban refugees. If this were more than a rumor there would have been fireworks and dancing on Calle Ocho in Little Havanah. They got a direct line to relatives in Cuba.

Reinhard Hardigan would be suitable replacement. At 102 he's still goin' strong and I've not heard to the contrary. I wouldn't wish it by any means as he's one of my favorite skippers; but he's way up there. <at age 99!

Timer is ticking....Bieber needs to take one for the team and run out in front of a bus.

smurf me! Bieber was on my list last year. He can still step in front of the bus though.
