Che Guevara died wearing a Rolex

Whoever it was that said that death and taxes are the only two certain things in life was wrong. There is one other absolute certainty in life:

The world is full of complete and total idiots who think Che Guevara was a "great man."

  • Can't wait for the Reinhard Heydrich issue...

  • Mr. Mojito

    The artistic quality of the book looks ok - but I don't have faith that the book will even attempt to show both sides though.

    As for the rolex - which I believe was a gift from Fidel - I think it is now in the posession of Felix Rodriguez in Miami who took it as a token of the kill in Bolivia.

    If the watch was a gift from fc, it was probably stolen goods.
    I can't help but wonder how many tokens Guevara took of his "kills" in Havana.

  • Mr. Mojito

    Omar, of course the watch was probably stolen or bought with confiscated funds (same thing).

    As for "tokens" taken by Guevara, I am sure there were many.

    As for Felix and Che's rolex, I saw Felix display the watch at his house during a documentary once - and Felix stated that he wished he would have taken more souveniers like Che's pipe etc. I guess they make good dinner conversation pieces :)

    It's good enough for me that he took che's life.
