Yeah, as idiomatic expressions go, this is an unfortunate choice that may really perplex the North Koreans.

I remember being asked for a “solid quarter” or a “solid dollar” in the Army and always wondered exactly what the hell they were talking about.

I think you’d have to go back to Link on 1970’s reruns of The Mod Squad to hear it used that way.
To: TurboZamboni
Used to watch that show back in the day.

This is an opportunity for a huge win for Lil’ Kim. If he lets this guy loose because DENNIS RODMAN asked him too... could he make the Administration look ANY sillier?? You really can’t make this stuff up.
