3/27

1. North Korea has expelled most of the South Korean managers from a jointly run industrial park on the border. The park has been matching cheap North Korean labor with South Korean money and management. For example, the factory pays in hopes, dreams, and feral cats.

2. Some Korean missionaries in Cambodia are offering karate classes followed by hymns and a sermons. They call it the “contact point” method of conversion, apparently as in the point where the fist contacts with the face.

3. The Indian car company Tata has just bought Jaguar and Land Rover, because they’re into tropical cats and refugees.

4. The space shuttle just landed in Florida. The crew helped build a Canadian robot. A Canadian robot - isn’t that an oxymoron?

5. The makers of the online game World of Warcraft are suing one of its players for creating software that can play the game automatically. Apparently, an employee of the company and an “unnamed private investigator” suddenly showed up at the software maker’s house. The man attempted to use his Mythic Laser Battleaxe, but you know, it was really just a broom, so the P.I. was able to deflect it.
