Wait until golf is an Olympic sport, Kimster. Then you can show the world!

Actually, defectors who have watched Kim shoot report that he is a good shot.

If Kerry had participated in the shooting event, he'd have earned his fourth purple heart by now.

There will be in Beijing in 2008. The Chinese are expected to sweep the medals. They're also expected to do well in the the "organ donation" events.
