The news was just too interesting today. South Korea, from which my father would never buy the cheapest car because of the dictatorship and the disrepecting of unions, honored the anniversary of the founding of North Korea's Workers' Party by sending 10 balloons containing 20,000 anti-North Korea leaflets, 1,00 U.S. $1 bills, 400 propaganda DVDs and 300 propaganda thumb drivers. (What are thumb drives? Oh, another name for USB flash drives!) North Korea's Secretariat of the Committee for the Peaceful Reunification of Korea called it "little short of a declaration of a war." Meanwhile Kim Jong Un has not appeared.
