Thanks for the ping!

At first I thought there was a typo in the title....then learned the meaning of "pwned".....

A corruption of the word "Owned." This originated in an online game called Warcraft, where a map designer misspelled "owned." When the computer beat a player, it was supposed to say, so-and-so "has been owned."

Instead, it said, so-and-so "has been pwned."

It basically means "to own" or to be dominated by an opponent or situation, especially by some god-like or computer-like force.


Bolton did indeed 'dominate' Kerry with his response about the Clinton Administration getting 'duped' by NK into an agreement that was never followed by the Koreans.
