depleted uranium

Out of the depths of the cavern came a voice, and IT said "can this not be enough?!" I have just spent the last two (2) hours talking world politics with an English-challenged South Korean man and a seemingly mute, but quite fetching, Japanese girl.

She wouldn't hug me goodbye, which I attribute either to the fact that a) her far more attractive friend has the hots for me, despite her short stature, or b) she hasn't yet grasped the finer details of social interaction in these United States.

To sum up the discussion on world politics sadly missed by you readers, I will list the following key points, not listed in any kind of order and totally devoid of reference:
- North Korea is the # 1 threat to the United States (US)
- Russia is unbeatable in a land war, and will rise again
- S. Korea is a colony of the US, similar to Puerto Rico, Guam, Alaska and Hawai'i
- The Korean police force is run by the Legislature, while the military is run by the executive
- Japan has no nuclear capabilities
- Socialism, as practiced in the US, is preferable to that practiced in Western Europe
- Pax Americana will never wither, and will last for eternity
- Foreigners cannot become members of the US armed forces
- Retirement aged Koreans are routinely beaten by S. Korean police for protesting (video proof available)
- N. Koreans are forced to make forks by hand
- The US is the finest country on earth, and those with the proper drive, vision and steadfastness can, within its borders, achieve anything

The clock ticks, my eyelids grow heavy, and the prospect of sleep bears its weight in gold.
Fare thee well, brave readers, and ponder the fascinating implications of this missive. JP
