I take personal satisfaction in the fact that I’ve almost always resisted breaking the law. There is no proof whatsoever that some years ago, while in a small Latin American country, I was offered a very cheap round-trip ticket to Cuba with guarantees that my passport would not be stamped by the Communists who controlled the island. Everyone who knows me knows that my interest in old cars, baseball and cigars are no more than most enthusiasts. Besides, they’d say, I am more likely to wait until I can visit a free Cuba, so it never happened.
