ROK Drop Weekly Linklets - 25NOV07

The Koreas
-  Anyone surprised by this
-  Is anyone any more surprised by this as well?
-  Here are some good reasons why the anti-discrimination law doesn’t stand a chance.
-  I read stories like this and it makes me glad I can use the military post office in Korea.
-  Yes, this is more lip service.
-  A mandatory gayness alert has been issued. 
-  A good reason why you shouldn’t drink and drive.
-  I’m glad I have never been given this talk
-  This is quite the styling grandpa.  Speaking of styling she isn’t to bad either. 
-  The Blue Dragon Awards have been given out. 
-  I wonder how many of the winners are from the Republic of Cosmetic Surgery.

Japan
Great argument from Japan on the moral absurdity of carbon trading.
-  I wonder if OJ was in this van.
Only in Japan.
-  This is cool, some Akira Kurosawa can be viewed online for free.
-  The Japanese, a lost tribe of Israel?
-  Personally I don’t see what the big deal is with this.
101 reasons why you have been in Japan to long.

China
-  The sister of "Jesus" has been arrested in China.
-  You are not going to believe what China’s newest export industry is.
This criticism sounds like a bunch of bull.
Interesting theory about China’s original expat. 
-  There are a bunch of pissed off farmers in China after losing their money in a fake Viagra scheme.

Milblogs
-  One of my favorite writers, Robert Kaplan has new piece out about tribal politics
-  A true friend of America will be missed.
-  It is a hard time for terrorists in northern Iraq.
-  You know you live a screwed up place when you have explosive hail storms.
-  Make sure to check out Michael Yon’s latest on the British military in Basrah.
-  I hope SimIraq is much cooler than playing Warfighters over and over again.
-  I found the next book I am going to order.

    “You know you live a screwed up place when you have explosive hail storms.”

    The afghan mujahideen thought some hail to be sent by allah as it exploded Soviet mines in much the same fashion.

    I guess that is another way of looking at it. However, I prefer living in places where you don’t need to rely on Allah’s hail storm to detonate cluster and land mine munitions in the first place.

    Heh. I too enjoy living without the threat of having my lower extremities shredded by munitions. My comment was a trivial addition not a defense.
    Good looking blog, by the way.

    Thanks for the shout-out. I was surprised to see you had linked to my FedEx article and not the Thanksgiving one, but yeah, the word needs to get out.

    Pax,
