North Korea Says Talks with U.S. Are Pointless

SEOUL Reuters - North Korea described President Bush (news - web sites) on Monday as a tyrannical political imbecile who put Adolf Hitler in the shade and said Pyongyang could see no justification for talks with his administration.

Kim Jong-il, everyone's favorite troll doll/dictator, seems to have his little knickers in a twist. Boy, I bet everyone with children has seen this act before.

What's This Crrrap All About?

Up until, as it turned out, a few months before Dan Rather was publicly pantsed for trying to, once again, influence the outcome of a national election, I didn't even know that the heck a 'blog' was. Since then, I've been wandering around the blogosphere. I've been inspired by what I've come across (for the most part) and thought I'd give it a shot but what should blog about? I mean, it seems like most blogs tend to break down into two groups. The "I did this, I did that" model and the "So-n-so sucks" model. And who the heck needs another one of those?

One of my favorite blogs belongs to Kim du Toit. Sure, he has plently of the two-model-type stuff I mentioned but he breaks it up with other bits as well. Very informative bits. So, I got to wondering about the 'other bits' I'd post.

That's when the title hit me. "Crrrap" is the battlecry, so to speak, of a fictional character of mine named coincidently (or not) Ohms. A reluctant hero who doesn't look for the situations he finds himself in, but once in one, he's definately going to deal with it. More often than not, with the use of a gizmo of some sort.

I've come across my share of 'gizmos' in my brief time upon this big blue marble so I'll be breaking things up by passing them along to my readers... you know, once I get some.

Hopefully no one will ever have a need for these bits, but if you do, you'll be glad you stopped by.

Crrrap!
