The Korean 'aid workers' have now had their originally planned ten-day missionary tour considerably extended, and it looks like for a few more it may well be the last trip they ever made. Meanwhile back home deserpate parents and family friends in affluent Bundang are bewailing the fact that their poor kids were forced off the air-conditioned bus and treated first like alien tresspassers and then as bargaining chips in exchange for Taliban prisoners who were taken, guilty or innocent, through somewhat more dramatic means.

So, what would you think of this exchange, to restore order to our topsy=turvy world again:

21 ministers and elders from Saemmul Presbyterian Church in Bundang volunteer to exchange places with the 21 young people whose heads are on the line. It couldn't be that difficult to arrange. Just keep exchanging one at a time until all the naive idiots are safe and sound and replaced by people who much more deserve to be there. 21 people, having received a much needed reality check, get a fresh chance, and 21 other people get exactly what they deserve. Surely it couldn't be that difficult.

Words of sanity in an otherwise crazy world.

Or maybe Korea's answer to Jessie Jackson could offer himself in exchange for the hostages?

What famous Korean would you like to see exchanged? My vote goes to one of those guys from the Sunkist Lemonade ads.

Oh, I know what! Next time some scurvy waygukin dog gets popped for dope, or faking their degree, or adultery, instead of jail we can send them to Taleban Land. Cheaper than a plane ticket home, and it's no burden on the already overburdened prison system! Everybody wins, yay, woo, huzzah.

Failing that, yeah; Super Jr. has like 14 members. They could certainly spare a few. And there's certainly no shortage of lemonade bots--we could export a dozen a day and still be flush at Christmastime

According to my sources, those two from the lemonadeu ad are from Super Junior. Bundle them up with DongBanShinGi and Lee Jung Ki and there are 18 of your 21. I'd throw in any other boy band, members in excess of 21 being a bonus for the Talib.

Remeber kids, its only adultry if its a waygukin and a asian woman.

Westerners are so desireable there are laws against sleeping with us.
