War by the creators of South Park

Reading CNN, Washington Post, and various non-Korean newspapers, it seems like the whole world is on edge about the North Korean missile testing that will occur this weekend to commemorate the 100th Anniversary of the Sinking of the Titanic.  Reading all the hype about planes being re-routed and Japan being ready to shoot down any missiles, as well as being in range of NK’s artillery field, I went on the State Department’s Smart Traveler website to make sure that the embassy knows to evacuate me in case of war.  (Think epic picture of the Fall of Saigon).



I want to be on the chopper when it leaves, although it would be kind of cool to work in the medical bay (a la M*A*S*H).

I turned on the news this morning and the only thing that’s getting coverage is (1) yesterday’s National Assembly election and (2) the six-hour response time from the Seoul police when a young lady called to report that she was being raped and stabbed.  It seems like the South Koreans are used to missile threats from the North or just more concerned about who is on the latest Starcraft II global leader board.   Why isn’t anyone respecting Cartman’s authoritah?


Don’t worry, I’m not going to succumb to the apathy.  I mean, I’ve been analyzing the National Response Framework and the National Incident Management System for years now.  I’ve already laid-out the path to run  to the U.S. embassy in case of fireworks.
