I like you tons and tons, too.

Am humbled by your kindness. Heading for the shower shortly myself but I want to see Heartland's Noah's Ark piece, if I can stay awake that long.

Didn't expect any nukes from Kim Il DongDong

"Japan warns North Korea over any missile launch"
By Teruaki Ueno

ARTICLE SNIPPET: "TOKYO (Reuters) - Japanese Foreign Minister Taro Aso warned North Korea on Sunday that Tokyo would regard any missile that dropped on Japan as an attack.

Aso made the comments amid reports North Korea could test fire an intercontinental ballistic missile as early as Sunday.

"If it is dropped on Japan, it will complicate the story. It will be regarded as an attack," Aso said on a Fuji TV programme.

"The possibility is not zero of a missile dropping on Japan. That's why we are worried," he said.

"We always have to think of a worst-case scenario."

Kyodo news agency, quoting unnamed diplomatic sources in New York, said Japan and the United States would seek immediate action by the United Nations' Security Council if North Korea went ahead with a missile test.

Aso stopped short of saying what Japan and the United States would do in the event of a launch.

But he said: "The responses will be rather harsh".

North Korea had moved components of a long-range missile to a launch pad along with 10 liquid-gas tanks to fuel it, a South Korean daily newspaper reported on Saturday, citing government officials for the information."
