RE:vararedo?NO! There is absolutely no connection between a Dr. Wu, who was arrested over some fake dentistry, and whoever is the real person behind the Varadero pseudonym. Shrimpy has this obsession with Varadero (whom he believes to be a dentist on Yonge Street in Toronto). As long as it is in good humor, it is tolerable. But this one went too far - by a long shot.
Just my opinion...
