Do you think Tom Holmoe will bring him in for an interview?

But, grain of salt here people,

It's sad how the American media always seeks to downplay and/or denigrate success and achievement.

Kim Jong Il missed his calling. Being the worlds greatest golfer will bring you more accolades, chicks, and money than being a small time dictator. I'd like to hear David Feherty do a post round interview just off the 18th green. I imagine Feherty in his Irish brouge and Kim with his Korean accent, and it would go something like this:

Feherty: You started off great.... with holes in one, on one and two, but then on three, you only got a birdie - what happened?

Kim: Earthquake during back swing, pin moved while ball in air.

Feherty: Why didn't you just use your mind control and will the ball into the hole after the earthquake?

Kim: Guards! - Arrest this man!

(head cold medicine making clack quacky today.)

Is finding something a success or achievement?

Looks like the son is following in his fathers' footsteps with a long-range missile test scheduled for mid-December.

May North Korea enjoy continued success in their "space" program...

This blog has some interesting links. But the best part is, it will save YOhio 5 percent off his next visit to the DPRK.

Today's North Korean missile firing reminded me of a story a friend, a NK specialist, told me about Strom Thurmond shortly before his death. Strom loved to launch into diatribes against pinko commie nations in speeches on the floor of the senate, and one of his favorite targets was Kim Jong Il. One day while pounding the lectern, Strom mis-reads his notes and refers to the Beloved Leader as "Kim Jong the 2nd."

For his next speech, his staff didn't want him to repeat his mistake, so in his notes, they wrote out "Kim Jong ill," hoping this phonetic spelling would help the octogenarian out. Without a blink, Thurmond reads "Kim Jong the 3rd."

This may be one of those aural jokes.

North Korean satellite 'orbiting normally' after rocket launch

In Pyongyang, however, pride over the scientific advancement outweighed the fear of greater international isolation and punishment. North Koreans clinked beer mugs and danced in the streets to celebrate.

"It's really good news," Jon Il-gwang told the Associated Press as he and scores of other Pyongyang residents poured into the streets after a noon announcement to celebrate the launch by dancing in the snow. "It clearly testifies that our country has the capability to enter into space."

South Korea's defence ministry said on Thursday that the satellite was orbiting normally at a speed of 4.7 miles (7.6km) per second, though it is not known what mission it is performing. North Korean space officials said the satellite would be used to study crops and weather patterns.

[...]

Never mind if the satellite seems to be "tumbling out of control". North Korea is now winning the space race.

An American tour guide is being held in North Korea for having footage of them executing people on his computer.
