North Korea leader Kim Jong-il has pancreatic cancer: report
2009-07-13
North Korean leader Kim Jong-il has pancreatic cancer, South Korean broadcaster YTN said on Monday in an unsourced news flash. Kim's health is one of the most closely guarded secrets in the reclusive communist state.
It's not good to speak ill of the dead. I'm not sure why this is so, but I'll keep my lip buttoned when he finally turns titzup, assuming this isn't just another rumor.
I called it yesterday. Pancreatic cancer, huh? He's going to be in a lot of pain before he dies ...
I believe pancreatic cancer will kill you deader than Tut within a year of diagnosis. With the best of medical care you can stretch it to something under 365 pain-filled days.

#7  If he's got pancreatic cancer, most likely he will be gone soon. The statistics don't favor him.

#4  If there is a Hell, than he's looking forward to at least several thousand years of this, so it's better if he gets started ASAP.

#2  As I understand it, Kim Jong-il hit several holes in one the first time he played golf,So put him in a laboratory and I bet he can come up with a cure on his first try.

#1  I sure hope his doctors don't find out that all they need to cure that is about a quart of Drano.
