Fidel, We Hardly Knew Ye

Two conversations one had on the telephone this morning; the first, with Crossword, the second, with Danai.

1.

"Hello, do you have the Fidel Castro autobiography?"
"Who?"
"Fidel Castro."
"How do you spell that....F-A-D..."
"F-I-D-E-L".
"Oh. No, we don't have it."

2.

"Hello, do you have the Fidel Castro autobiography?"
"Could you spell that...K-A-S-"
"C-A-S-T-R-O"
"No, no record of it here."
