Missing in Action (Part II) - KJI's childhood

Sorry again that I haven't been posting anything lately.  I'm in between a trip to China, hosting Chinese officials in Korea, and moving to a new place in Seoul, so a *bit* overwhelmed.  I promise I will write some new blog articles about Wuxi, China (exciting!), a commentary on Chinese drivers (so bad that I was laughing everytime I was in a car), and a new Taxicab Dialogues - Drivers on strike edition.

I do have an interesting story to share.  I was at a luncheon a couple of weeks ago, and sat next to a professor who used to ride tricycles with Kim Jong Il in Pyeongyang before the Korea War started.  Alas, KJI was pulled from school because his daddy had to go answer to his Soviet puppet masters and there was this penninsular war that he was trying to start.  Well, you know I'm interesting in anything about KJI (especially him looking at things), so I obviously asked if KJI was "ronery," but nobody in the table laughed.  C'mon people, where's your sense of humor?  The correct response is obviously "...so ronery."
