    Funny picture I saw online of the N. Korean dictator, thought the cafe would get a chuckle.

    I can't think of any jokes that wouldn't get me into trouble.

    He looks like he's about to knock over the table.

    Maybe we should call him "Kim Jam On"...

    He'd probably be the guy who would request "Wagon Wheel" three times in a row...

    The top photo is of course KJU inspecting a craftily designed snipers nest for his next family reunion.

    As for the other pic, I never really understood the term "banjo killer" until today.

    So what is that small lute like instrument he is pointing to? Is it a modern version of a pipa?

    I thought of posting that 'creepy as hell' kids ensemble and went as far as looking it up...then decided, with respect, that it's not fair game to make fun of little kids growing up in an evil totalitarian dictatorship. I hope they find their way to happy adulthoods.

    Yeah, maybe it just goes to show what a really, really bad hair cut can do to a man.

    BTW if you bid against him at the trade show and a cute-ish young N.Korian lass springs up to hug you with a hankie in her hand--RUN !
