#3 Kim Jong Un is the real question mark. At 29, he is not as integrated into the power hierarchy as his father was (Kim Jong Il was in his 50's when he took power). This raises the question: will he feel the need to demonstrate his power so that he can get "credibility" with the old guard, by way of shelling an island, or sinking another patrol boat, or something worse? That's the big concern.

#6 It's unfortunate that he didn't die swinging from a lamp-post like he deserved. Still, a dead tyrant is a good tyrant.

#10 I'm distressed over the hundreds of Kimmie jokes I've saved up for a special occasion that I can't use anymore.

Did he really wear 4-inch platform shoes?

Even at $700 a bottle, $800,000 a year for cognac is a lot of boozing it up. You don't suppose some of his problems were alcoholism related dementia or just plain nuttiness? AND if he drank that much they won't have to embalm him.

Is it possible that a revolution could occur in the vacuum and we can be rid of this cancerous blot on civilization?

#11 Obviously the escape hatch on the tiny rocket-ship didn't work. (Kudo's to those who get that)
