Cheerleaders Gone Wild
Just when you thought the North Koreans proved themselves totally fascist weirdos, something comes around to show that North Korea is an even bigger insane assylum run by a vicious malcontent pygmie with poofon hair than you imagined. This would have given me the heebeegeebies to watch, I'm sure.

Fear of Kim's Wetness Stirs Up Cheerleaders
by Keum Won-seob (capedm@chosun.com)

Another peculiar scene with the North Korean cheerleaders unfolded Thursday as they noticed, while riding back from an archery competition, welcome banners with the image of their leader Kim Jong Il in conditions they didn't like.

The women, after demanding that their buses stop, protested in anger and shed tears before taking four banners down and carrying them away.

The group of 150 cheerleaders, here as part of the North Korean delegation to the Universiade games in Daegu, first saw the banners at about 1:40 p.m., as the women were returning from an archery competition.

One banner had a picture of Kim Jong Il shaking hands with former South Korean President Kim Dae-jung at one end and a picture of the reunification flag at the other. In between was a message welcoming the North Korean athletes.

The women, who were in six separate buses, demanded that the vehicles stop. According to one bus driver, some even stepped on his right foot while trying to apply the brake themselves.

Then about 30-40 of them ran the 300-500 meters back to where the banners were. Protesting, they pointed out apparent horrors such as that a seal was stamped on Kim Jong Il's image, that the banners were hanging too low, that they were beside a scarecrow and that they had been left to the mercy of the rain and wind.

Several of the women, helping each other, managed to climb up a two-meter tree and pull down the four banners. They rolled them up, making sure to keep the images still visible, and carried them reverently back to the bus, while weeping out loud. About 10 of them also wrested a camera away from a South Korean reporter who was on the scene.

A South Korean police officer who saw the tail end of the spectacle said, "The North Korean supporters were wailing loudly as they got on the bus, like women who had just lost their husbands. People who were at the scene were saying that it was beyond their comprehension, and some even said it gave them the chills."

I keep telling you guys that these people are weird. The Kims are living gods. This ain't communism, it's god old fashioned Asiatic despotism.

MY neighbor across the street has a 17 year old daughter whose a cheerleader. Last night I was sitting outside (around 6-7pm, about the time I was trying to figure out what to have for dinner) and two cars pull up driven by teenage boys. From the passenger seat two teenage girls emerge (one from each car). The run up to the door and meet the daughter there who hands them some sweat pants witht heir high schools name on them... I guess it was for cheer, or something, I saw pom-poms in the cars... But, the two blonde hotties that got of the cars changed from their shorts into the sweats right in the driveway!!! They didn't bother to cover up, and didn't even see me though I was standing right across the street!!!

Sometimes it's good to be Mr. Cellophane

Flags with the country map on it are a bad idea, unless you have a cool shaped country. Also, light blue on white?

Actually, it's pretty damned sad and infuriating. Most cults you at least have a choice about joining, or they don't have such tight control over their members that escape isn't nearly impossible.

These people have such an incredibly distorted view of the world and of history, it's amazing. And you can bet that for the ones like these cheerleaders who are sent out, there has to be a huge amount of preplanning done by their handlers to condition them to the visible differences in standard of living between the DPRK and the outside world.
