The first train from Lhasa Railway Station travels on the Tibetan grasslands near Lhasa, Tibet Saturday July 1, 2006. China on Saturday opened the first train service to Tibet on the world's highest railway, a controversial engineering marvel meant to bind the restive Himalayan region to China.

Maybe the North Koreans want to be like Tibet.

At least the glorious leader isn't kissing little boy's tummies and saying they feel like kittens.

The South Koreans believe that if they just keep the North Korean leaders from doing anything too destructive (especially to South Korea), eventually the tragicomic house of cards up north will just collapse.

We should all PRAY for such an outcome, or a castle coup by reformers. An NK Götterdammerung is too horrible to contemplate.

Geez, the North Korean government sounds an awful lot like a good percentage of Welfare recipients.

1. Get food and other stuff for free.
2. Don't take care of what they have, or are given.
3. Demand more because they don't have enough.
4. Steal stuff, because the person they stole it from had more than them.
5. Blame all of their problems on someone else.
