Eye opening too (in a "WTF"-manner a lot of the time, I'm sure!)... I was in far western China when the 50th anniversary of the founding of the PRC occurred, and a lot of your experiences jibed with the ones I had in those outlying rural cities that had not yet moved into the 21st century. I would love to visit Nth Korea- it never amazes me how a single shrewd and ingeniously skillful political animal can bend an entire thinking adult populace to their beliefs- and make them think that it's all for their own good! It's almost Freudian... a truly insightful trip into the human psyche... Absolutely intriguing, and fun in an adventurous kind of way.

Apparently, visitors are no longer able to enter the little blue building at the military demarcation line where all meetings between delegates of North Korea and South Korea have taken place. The Americans seem to have put a padlock on the inside of the door at the North Korean side. I wonder why they’ve done that. I recon that it would be one of the highlights of a visit to the demilitarized zone. Furthermore, I was a bit fascinated by another thing that happened to him while having lunch, but you can read all about it on his site.

And what the hell are you doing in North Korea, anyway? Are you a hostage? Did someone make you go there at gunpoint? “Scaramouche,” no?

That, I think, is the kind of thing separates our boring ol' run-of-the-mill power-hungry corrupt western politicians from bona fide megalomanaical totalitarian lunatics capable of bending entire nations to their will. Incredible. I’m amazed by the flowers.
