i have OCD so cleaning would be the hardest job for me. i guess i take it personally. :P
I have done maintenance work in the past.   When I worked at Publix (grocery store) at age 16, I would have to clean the bathrooms quite often (we had a rotation among employees).   It isn't difficult for me at all to clean.
:P   Internets are super serious.

Now that Fidel Castro is gone, Cuba will most likely have to deal with his brother. At the same time, I'd like to see Cuba open up a bit more, but I have a feeling that the descendants of the Batista regime supporters would most likely attempt to reclaim what they lost when they fled in the late 50's and early 60's. --Back then, Havana was essentialy like a cross between Las Vegas and Tijuana, and most of the people who lived there really weren't well off.

--It will be interesting to see what happens, irregardless of the outcome.

Fidel's brother will take office, and Fidel will remain pulling the strings from behind the scene. ::)

That kind of stuff is expected somewhat.   I had hope that they would at least move in a more capitalist direction and eventually have real elections.  Cuba has always been fucked up in the past to some degree, it doesn't need to go back to an era, it needs to move forward.

I'd love to live in communist Cuba - free health care!

No branding on product packaging, no advertisements. Just state-supplied goodness.
Bliss.
