Interesting recent photos of North Korea taken by Artemii Lebedev, a Russian web-designer (via Wesner Moise, the Undocumented .NET guy). My relatives are still living there, somewhere. Some day, probably after I retire, I'll visit to see faces like mine. Well, maybe just eyebrowses like mine…

Re North Korean missle about to be launch, I say shoot the dang thing down with laser or whatever we've been pouring billions into. What a great opportunity to see my tax dollars at work! While North Koreans are also my countrymen of sort since I am a Korean-American, a brother who points a gun at me should not be embraced now but mourned later.
