They'd probably eat the lightbulb first.

A. None - You can't "change" what you only have one of.

First you have to admit that you need a change?

We don't make light bulbs at the People's Great Pachinko and Indoctrination Works.

to do to our country.

Rumsfeld said in an interview that when you view the Korean Peninsula at night the South is lit up like a Christmas tree while the North is almost totally dark. You can literally see the difference between communism and capitalism from space.

I'm reminded of a conversation I had with a North Korean guard in Pan Mun Jom back in the Winter of 90/91 - the long and the short of it was that he told me that every home in North Korea had a Soda Machine (we were talking about the can of Coke I was drinking at the time).

More sad than anything else - these guys would spend their days punching a wooden post wrapped with rope during the daytime and then sit shivering under blankets in their guard towers at night - every now and then one of them would come out as I checked the area around our guard posts and talk at me - this was the only time I talked back, and judging from the conversation, I wasn't missing much.

The environmentalist whackos would love North Korea. No light pollution.

Here 'tis:

The World From Space

If you look just to the left of Japan (far right), North Korea is so dark that South Korea looks like a brilliantly illuminated island between Japan and mainland China . . .

How many North Koreans does it take to screw in a light bulb?

1. Two - one to screw it in, and a second to hand out leaflets.

2. One, but it takes him about 30 years to realize that the old one has burnt out.

3. One to petition the Ministry of Light for a bulb, fifty to
establish the state production quota, two hundred militia to
force the factory unions to allow production of the bulb, and
one to surreptitiously dial an '800' number to order an
American light bulb.

4. None, the seeds of revolution and change are within the light
bulb itself.

5. Two: One to screw it in and the other to check it for
microphones.

6. 10,000 - to give the bulb a cultural revolution.

7. One to screw in the bulb and a thousand to chant "Fight
Darkness!"

That pict's been posted several times on here.

Of course, lefties say its a good thing, because they aren't contributing to Global Warming.

I noticed recently that on the Army website (www.army.mil) that the very top has a banner of the entire world, in the same manner as that satellite map. You can clearly see on the far right the black hole that North Korea causes.

South Korea looks like an island. (Of course, if the North keeps this up, it will be an island.)

Were you up at JSA? I was at Cp Greaves 92/93.

What a surreal place.

A trick question. They aren't "light bulbs", they're dark suckers.

The brilliance of the ideas which flow like so many blessings from Our Great Leader cause such spontaneous joy in all of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea that trees and flowers bloom out of season, septic pits smell sweet, and lightbulbs spontaneously regenerate, eliminating all need for change. The vile, imperialist pig-dogs of the South, the puppets and lackeys of the fascist, imperialist American running dog of a Capitalist Bush see this, and through traitors and spies remove the good for their own use, and replace them with inferior models made through slave labor in their beleaguered lands.

"because they aren't contributing to Global Warming."

I don't know about that. Rumor has it that eating Kimche produces large quantities of methane.
