It's partly sunny in South Korea.

What do you think about what I just wrote? How's that going to be turned into another bitching and whining session, I wonder

But you can do it.

Conditioning bright and enthusiastic commoners to sacrifice time and energy to Her Majesty's service is most laudable. The world needs more serf-training. When the training takes over American GI's will jump off buildings to their deaths on Her Majesty's whim.

Volunteerism makes happy slaves.

"It never ceases to amaze me the level of bitterness and hatred over something this harmless…"

Bitterness is usually the inevitable by-product when the bottom feeders of a certain society can't have their own way with another society at large.

Maybe you don't know much about Korea. Kimchi and its brethren constitute 40% of the Korean diet. Rice (40%), seaweed (10%), and dead Chinese babies (10%) fill out the remainder.

(Just for the record, I'm not knocking the GI's and their families for donating their time and energy–I'm just saying that importance of kimchi over more substantial foods in the diets of the needy and elderly is waaaay off kilter)

Also a fantastic idea because nothing fills a hungry belly and offers nourishment like f**king cabbage.

“They were very enthusiastic and bright,” said Lee Kyung-ah, a Korean volunteer who taught how to make Kimchi. “I am from Yongsan Women’s Reserve Army and it is so great to see U.S. Army Families come together and help needy families.”

I'm sure that you'll find Lee Kyung-ah and her husband at the Seongnam golf course this weekend. That's what the Korea-American Friendship Association (KAFA) and the Korean-American Partnership Association (KAPA) are for. Rich, elderly Koreans invite USFK servicemembers to free dinners, tours, and cultural events. In exchange, USFK sponsors their access to military facilities. It's bogus. It's shameful.

I have to jump through hoops to get my Korean in-laws on post to visit my wife in our quarters. Meanwhile, the golf club parking lot is packed full of Equus, Chairmen, and Mercedes by 0630.
