  1. Nothing new for Trump. He is all about himself. Trump cut off his dead brother's, very sick grandchild's health care, because his nephew disputed his father's will. If he would do that to his own blood kin, he would not give two shits about some random poor kids.
  2. Live shot of KU AD Sheahon Zenger enjoying his morning coffee in the KU athletic department.
  3. The Baty stuff actually came out in the fall. So ridiculous. Maybe when we have a coach capable of having a winning season from time to time and can at least flirt with a .500 winning percentage each season. Beaty and his sub .100 winning percentage is not the time to cry for stability. Last season should have seen progress, but instead we regressed. It is also hilarious they bring up letting coaches go so fast when Zenger is the one who fired the last 2 coaches after 2 and 2.5 seasons. Sadly, both were better coaches than Beaty. Zenger needs to be gone, not because he is a KSU grad (nobody is tanking their career for school pride), but because he is immensely incompetent and can't be allowed a third FB coach hire. I am pretty sure we go defeated this year for the 2nd time in four years.
  4. It's because he is comfortable in prison. Spent some time in Shawshank back in the day.
  5. I still see the original symbol around NE Asia frequently. It means good luck and hope I believe. The only problems come from western foreigners who think it is the Nazi symbol, which is a reverse of the original that they see here in Asia. The original is on the right.
  6. There as always been diplomacy between them. The DMZ is where they do it. They have a building there specifically for that purpose. The stance of the diplomacy between them would be what changes. Celebrating the official end of the conflict is great, if it happens. The South Koreans I work with were all excited yesterday when the meetings began for that reason. For the South Koreans it would be like their crazy, sometimes violent brother finally going on meds. They can sleep a little easier at night.
  7. China would be a winner except that NK keeping it's nukes will lead to Japan and South Korea developing their own. Some politicians in both countries are already calling for developing their own. China won't want that. If the USA staying in SK/Japan keeps SK and Japan from developing nukes China will live with the USA in SK and Japan.
  8. This is wrong. I used to believe this too, before I lived in South Korea. I have talked to U.S. soldiers in SK about this issue. They told me the US remained here to keep South Korea from invading/bombing the North when they provoke the South, which NK is fond of doing from time to time. See here and here as examples. Before they had nukes, North Korea basically admitted that if a war occurred they would do as much artillery damage to Seoul as they could since that is basically all they could do in a conventional conflict. With nukes the best they could do would be mutually assured destruction. North Korea has little fuel and outdated military equipment. They have troubles even meeting the basic needs of their citizens. They have pretty much zero surpluses of anything. They have a large army, put how well did that serve Iraq (5th largest army in the world at the time) when they faced a modernized army and Iraq had enough fuel for their vehicles. South Korea has a modern military. They are one of the 10 biggest military spenders in the world. They can defend themselves. If we leave they will quickly develop their own nukes. Followed by Japan doing so as well. We remain to try to keep things on an even keel, or at least we did before Trump. NK currently would get crushed in a conventional war with South Korea. It is not 1950 where the North had all the industry. Nukes are a way to ensure NK's survival long-term, as even though they would lose any conflict, they could cause large scale damage to many countries which the US and it's allies would want to avoid (if NK can get their rockets to work correctly). NK won't give them up easily. The unsaid reason we want NK to drop their program is to keep Asia from a nuclear arms race. If they don't disarm, South Korea and Japan will quickly develop their own. Politicians in both countries are starting to call for their development. This is why China would prefer NK disarm as well. If they don't, China will gain two more countries with nukes on their doorstep.
  9. I thought Trump had Superman genes and could live to be 200. Why does he need to spend so much time with Trump?
  10. Waffle House sits at the heart of SEC football The SEC take pride in their Waffle Houses. A&M was crying for one when they moved to the SEC.
  11. Sadly this is probably going to be true. Kansas has been stuck on full retard for a long time now.
  12. I can't wait for Mueller to say "Mission Accomplished".
