Sir,
Any clue what this “GO” button is that is moving down your links on the right hand side? I’m not able to click on the link to Mark’s website. I noticed it was moving the other day but didn’t think anything about it.

GI, I need your link every weekend to keep readers flowing my way. I’ve had to resort to posting the names of Battlestar Galactica actresses plus “nude” to draw hits…

Thanks for the link again, as always.
Since we’re on the topic of revisions, would you mind changing mine from “Brain in Jeollanam-do” to “Brian in Jeollanam-do”? Thanks.

Brian I fixed the link. Sorry about that, I click on that link all the time to get to your webpage and I never noticed it was misspelled.
Brendon I do check your site every week to see what you got posted but as interesting as your postings are I figure probably not to many people reading the ROK Drop are interested in postings about Franchise Disclosure Statements or Odd Price Differentials. However, Rekha Sharma nudes is something I think everyone is interested in.

Korea Law Blog definitely has the most “Rekha Sharma nude” content available on the entire Internet. But I would think that the odd price differentials issue is one people would find interesting — perhaps 90% as interesting as the nude Battlestar Galactica actress.

@Sonagi,
I am shocked! Such a fresh mouth from a school teacher.
You know Sonagi, a little less vinegar and a little more sugar and you would not need to troll the Internet to get your jollies off. ChickenHead occasionally posts some sage comments that would be especially helpful for a randy American women like yourself. You should take some notes.
Just so you can’t say I wasn’t helpful, here is a (Work Safe) picture that should bring lots of fond memories of Korea.

I know I am a bit late to the party, but I wrote a response to Schertzer’s piece here.

Nice work Dodds! Schertzer is a real piece of work. He has been busy drinking Korean cool-aid, and now is trying to force it on the rest of us.
Great picture of Schertzer at the bottom of your post. Notice anything funny about his smile?

Thanks Shattered. I wouldn’t assume anything about Schertzer outside of the things he has written, but he surely has decided that his advancement in Korean education comes through disgust for liberal values and the west in general.
That, and the reasoning behind his argument is pretty weak.
