NKorea leader rails against long-haired men: report
44 mins ago
TOKYO (AFP) North Korean leader Kim Jong-Il, making his presence felt amid speculation about his health, has lashed out at football players sporting long hair, a Japanese newspaper said Monday.
The bouffant-haired dictator was outraged at the hairdos while watching a university match and ordered all men to go clean-cut, the Mainichi Shimbun said in its evening edition, quoting an unnamed source close to the regime.
It said the match was believed to have taken place earlier this month as speculation swirled overseas about the health of Kim, who failed to show up at the communist state's 60th anniversary parade on September 9.
"I think it is untidy and not befitting for athletes" to grow long hair, Kim said while watching the game between Kim Il-Sung University and Pyongyang University of Railways, the Mainichi said in a dispatch from Beijing.
"What kind of haircuts are these? If things are like this, you cannot tell whether this is a men's football match or women's," Kim said angrily, according to the Mainichi source.
The frustrated Kim stopped watching the match after the first half, the Mainichi said, adding that it was unclear whether the leader actually was present at the stadium or watched the game on television.

The guy is sick alright. He is lots of free time at hand, enough to spread around his hairstyle advice.
However, first, he should have his hairs in order. He is not in a position to dish out idle advice.
The guy sees subversion behind every little change among his slaves.

Little Kim pointing excitedly :"HER, bring her to my room this evening! Such a body, such a beauty..."
Whispered (sir, um, there's a problem with that.)
Little Kim : NOW, Bring her NOW! Don't you dare deny my will!
(sir, that's a man)

Any hairs longer than Chia Head’ are “considered long.” That is my take.:-)

I'm sure Bae Yong Joon's (Yonsama's) haircut would give him a heart attack. Someone send photos, please! I'll be glad to send that pot bellied pig to an early grave.

This is one of the important news from today:
General Secretary Kim Jong Il’s work “The Historic Lesson in Building Socialism and the General Line of Our Party” was brought out in booklet by the Grafica Aj Hermanos Publishing House of Peru on the occasion of the 63rd anniversary of the founding of the Workers’ Party of Korea.

Chia Pet's tirade against long hair on Korean men is dripping with irony because just 100 years ago, men in Korea had their hair really long and would wear it in a topknot on top of their heads.

They hid the topknot with their hats.

When the Japanese came in and demanded the men cut their head, many Korean men resisted saying they'd rather be beheaded then lose their topknot.
