Then on the next editorial is something about the U.S. sending food relief to the north.

The result of the protestors' efforts will be that they will be eating US beef disguised and priced at Korean beef prices. Nice to see that their efforts will not go unrewarded. On the side, I wonder how many of these student protestors can afford to eat beef anyway ? Oh yeah, I forgot they are all still living at home with mommy and daddy who are both working and going broke feeding/clothing/educating their adult children...who as it seems in return protest the import of cheaper US beef. Talk about biting the hand that feeds you. Let them eat cake. #5 Too funny :)

Why aren't the streets of Pyongyang full of candle-waving students declaring that they don't want U.S. beef either? Oh, yeah, that is another thing South Koreans can blame the U.S. for. As the son of a U.S. Marine who served here during the war, these people can really diminish that as a source of family pride. They're lucky they have the choice of turning down food.

And Canadian beef deal to follow at 4:20.

I'd better start walking to work right now, and drape myself in my Canadian flag. do you think it'll be over soon? I'm just so friggin' tired of hearing about this damned FTA -- It's shit or get off the pot time in Roboseyo's book. Today in class, I mentioned the North Korean spies in the Korean Teacher's Association, and rather than arguing or getting upset at such an insinuation, all my students nodded knowingly. damn! you’re right.
