The Tonight Show with Conan O’Brien spoofs the ever-rollercoastering health of Fidel Castro, below. Dissidents and U.S. policy-makers for years have made plans for how to approach a post-Fidel Cuba and the subsequent ushering-in of democracy in Cuba, vacillating between expecting Fidel Castro’s death and feeling stymied by his almost impossible insistence on surviving. The cycle: hopeful speculations follow Fidel’s long periods of absence from media, only to be dashed when new photos or videos are released showing a healthy (or really, a live) Fidel.
