Leftist Leaders in Loony Laughfest

A "Chiste" Among "Compadres"

Cuban president Fidel Castro reportedly startled his Venezuelan counterpart,
Hugo Chavez, with a practical joke when they met yesterday in Paraguay.

He persuaded a Paraguayan MP to warn Chavez to watch out for an ambush
and then jumped out at him from behind a door.

Witnesses said Chavez looked nervous when MP Juaqn Carlos
Galaverna told him about the ambush and even more scared when Castro
made his sudden appearance.

The two leaders then retired to a private salon for a quick game of "52
Pick-up"
