Akin to the Eveready Bunny, Cuban communistic despot and life-long President Fidel Castro is, according to new reports surfacing from Havana,  “walking, talking and being briefed, according to a cryptic statement published Saturday in the Communist Party daily, Granma, a day before the "Maximum Leader's" 80th birthday.”

"Someone who visited the comandante a few hours ago to brief him on certain matters ... said he witnessed how the head of the revolution, after receiving a little physical therapy, walked in the room and later, sitting in a chair, engaged in an animated conversation," Granma said.

Despite comas, surgery complications, bouts with cancer and general decrepit age issues, Fidel isn’t lying down and enjoying his retirement playing Dominoes.  His last public appearance was on July 26.

The Cuban papers are stating that his health is being treated as a “state secret and there has been no information as to where he is being treated, who is visiting him or any detail on his health.”
"Our friend saw the comandante up and about, like someone anticipating new victories," Granma said.
