Good. Maybe all the newbs will run home, and fewer teachers will be willing to come here. The schools will be begging for teachers and our conditions will improve. For too long now the market has been saturated and wages have declined. I think a little nuclear conflagration might just be the thing I've been waiting for.

Bring it on.

Again?

It's been a long winter. They must need America to send them some food again.

North Korean tactics in the past have caused people to ignore what North Korea says/does. You have to admit though, as North Korea keeps upping the notch, things may escalate and turn very sour, very quickly.

A couple of things to keep in mind that have occurred very recently: Armistice has been disbanded, North Korea has declared war, missile units have been moved into ready positions, Kim Jong Un has issued a call to arms.

The first two events are new and have never been done before. I would keep an open eye on things - more so than ever before.

Here is some info regarding the SK and NK war capabilities: http://www.forexlive.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/506141-north-korea-armed-forces-infographic.jpg

Seeing as how they are producing nuclear weapons, the sooner they (NK) are hit heavy and hard, the better. Waiting to strike them will only allow them to build their stock piles further. It's time for the US and S. Korea to do a deal with China, start fortifying the DMZ, hit the North Koreans hard from the air and sea, and let the Chinese roll tanks across the border and take possession of the place. North Korea could be a Chinese Special Administrative Region, and perhaps they could hand it back over to the South (Hong Kong style) after 50-60 years.

BTW, have we shot their "satellite" out of space yet? Perhaps that's what the US will do next to rattle their cages.

I'm putting my money on some kind of little sea battle in the next few weeks.

The North has talked themselves into a corner, and they have to do something... anything.

A carefully controlled sea battle that is not allowed to escalate will probably suite the NORKS just fine.

Neither side wants an escalation... the NORKS know they can't win a real war, and the South doesn't want to do anything that will interfere with its love affair with consumerism.


Man, I miss MC-JC right now....

MC-JC, Where are you!!!!

This whole thing reminds me of a drunken bar fight between two ajossis.

They both have each other by the collar and have their fists cocked behind their heads while they beak at each other, but neither ever actually throws a real punch.

But there was already a state of war, which can only mean one thing: Double War.

It might be time to send in the cast (and director) of Spring Breakers to North Korea as a special forces unit ... http://rogerebert.suntimes.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20130320/REVIEWS/130329996

Like NK's leaders, it's "self-indulgent..., dark, and always provocative"
