Friday Fiver gets kind of random

[gridlore]

1. Have you ever had an addiction? Yes. That's all I'm going to say on the matter.

2. Are you afraid of the dark? Hell no! I love the night.

3. What's your favorite flavor of ice cream? Chocolate fudge

4. Have you ever been to the circus? Not since I was about 5.

5. What do you think of North Korea testing nuclear weapons? They aren't testing nuclear weapons, they are testing long-range missiles. As long as the tests are announced, and fall in international waters, they are following the established protocols. However, the DPRK is run by nutcases. So I think after they test a missile, we should test the 7th Fleet's ability to launch an Alpha Strike on the launch complex.

Have you heard what the DPRK is doing to the Chinese?

They are stealing trains. (http://www.strategypage.com/qnd/korea/articles/20060705.aspx)

The Chinese are sending aid, fuel and food mostly, by train.
Lately, the North Koreans have been keeping the trains and sending the crews back.

The Chinese want their trains back.
The North Koreans are claiming they are part of the aid program.
The Chinese have stopped sending trains.

That's life in KimWorld. They say it, therefore it is true.

I recall a few years back during the whole circus regarding the Japanese who had been kidnapped by DPRK agents decades before. In an attempt to humanize Kim Jong Il, North Korea let slip that he enjoyed golf.. and had scored nine holes-in-one the first time he played. They said this with a straight face.
