Holy CR@P, grey_whiskers!!! Here I am stuck late at my shop, and I took a quick break to inhale a sandwich... I’m stuck with nothing but my wife’s diet Dr.Pepper with which to wash it down... (I normally refer to that stuff as diet carbonated prune juice!) I have a just taken a big drink when I scroll down see a giant little Asian soldier in uniform, standing between hobbits. A new keyboard is in order at this point...

I have a confession: I saw that here on FR; if I recall correctly, that was actually a *North Korean* photoshop of one of their soldiers being escorted by a couple of ROK troops. They photoshopped him to hide the NK-malnutrition-induced lack of growth among NK troops.

Full Disclosure: I once recall hearing that the Soviet Unio had one of their main battle tanks designed such that the gunner had to be five foot tall or shorter (or somesuch)...and consequently had manpower problems supplying enough gunners.

Methinks they should get together with the Norks and swing a deal.

Cheers!
