A silent thread for Kim Jong-Un

He may be just looking at stuff. He might be in forced retirement. Maybe he's actually recovering from a an illness? Or he may be dead.

We don't know!

THE ORIGINAL

Introduced to the dry bulk industry in 1954, Roto-Bin-Dicator is the original rotating paddle-type dry bulk level indicator. This well-proven, easy to use, simple to install product remains the leader in dry bulk level indication in tanks and silos around the world.

UNMATCHED FLEXIBILITY

With an extensive choice of paddle options, Roto-Bin-Dicator can adapt to a variety of applications and materials. These paddlewheel units can be mounted vertically or horizontally in a tank with extended shafts if required.

Sat Oct 11, 2014, 10:46 PM

Sure Kim likes basketball, but he also likes reality TV and he wants to be a real live star.
He is fascinated with MaDonna's seemingly unending abilities to reinvent herself .As you may know, Madonna once dated Rodman. It has been rumored that the real reason behind Rodman's invites into the inside circle over there in N. Korea is so that un Kim were in a position to obtain the reclusive exclusive inside story on Madonna's reinvention of herself technique.

Kim confessed to Rodman ,this is exclusive stuff now mind you, of his inner fantasies and his desire to make his fantasies become reality. Kin does not wish to be viewed as an extension of the same ol'e same ol'e ,he wishes to burst out of the deep dark reclusiveness and come back out onto the world stage as the ever popular Slim Kim Kim.

That means he sees Rodman as more of mentor . Actually it is Rodman's manor of dress that interests Kim .Rodman is Kim's wardrobe goo ru.

As you know, the suspense has captured world attention,and all the questions add to the mystery. The real question is, is he going to come out more as a rapper or more a N. korean pop star.How bout Slim Kim Kim doing his rap a pop thing on the world stage.

This is to say the limp may by be nothing more than a false front.

I feel bad that Rodman gets fun made of him as an "ambassador" and is not taken seriously enough. Nobody that brings us closer to peace with N Korea deserves to be laughed at.

I can see Un as a rap singer. I just hope his cabinet can visualize it too. Rodman can get him connected with coaches - I just wish he would free all Americans he's holding who've not committed a crime. The good will he generates will do wonders if he wants a career....

Madonna is my favorite female singer. She doesn't to the screaming that almost every other female singer does (Dione among many others, except Lady GaGa, she sounds like Madonna a bit, and maybe Un will take a shine to her too).

Thank you so much for then information. I've read fiction books about NK and got interested in the country. Those poor folks deserve peace.....

As I recall Rodman checked into an alcohol rehab center shortly after returning form N. Korea .
It went badly over there for him and as it turned out he had break down.
And that appears to be something of what may have happened to slim Kim Kim. Speculation of course ,but if you have ever fallowed Rodman's flamboyance off the ball court in his days as a player ,you might just see a bit of a connection between Slim Kim Kim's act and Rodman's.
The difference of course being ,Rodman's act is his own and Kim's is staged by his handlers.

In the mix the two no doubt share in common periods of depression. I mean if you choose to look a little deeper into it and connect to the emotional aspects in it ,than by all means connect away.

What we do know for what ever the real deal is with Kim, they cannot and will not show kim off as having a weakened grasp on those reigns. and so he seems to be mysteriously missing. And whatever is in the planning regards to the most recent visitation North to South seems to have been a military diplomatic kind of a thing where it seems the so called number two guy was acting in the capacity of military ambassador ,a direct representative of the north korean power structure accenting full powers.

With what's cooking in global theater leave it be said it is not in N. korea's interest at all rattling the old saber given what appears to be unfolding.

By the way have you even seen the 2002 James Bond movie Die Another Day ?

N. korea needs more than just a face lift at current, so liposuction fallowed by the a newly created image ,or the spectacular presentation of Slim Kim Kim just might be a rather huge part of whatever is going down in n. korea.You know health diets and eating slim and food distribution.

They must change their evil ways like it says in the song .

Saw most of the James Bonds but not all....

Un might be part of an act, who really knows. But the people of N Korea have suffered greatly because of their government and its interest in the military and nuclear weapons, not leaving enough funding for food.

If Un wants to slim and his cabinet lets him, and become more of a capitalist and open a McDonalds and popularize rap, more power to him..

Rodman was shamed by the stuff said about him. He meant well I am sure.

clue us in. As to Rodman,don't you think alcohol and perhaps drugs may be a bigger part of why it is he brought down the shame upon himself ? Rodman was flipping out over there in N. korea.
Know what flipp'en out means ? Means he lost it, you know overloaded than crashed.
Severe substance abuse does that. Now think about it, Rodman knows the media game well, he in fact was a vintage crafty player with those media dogs,wolves actually. So no excuses, it wasn't just his game was off on that trip-you know like in the slumps. No doubt he
will rebound, but he really needs to work on his own issues.

And ah, the whole of it as it went down and as it so happens was Rodman's very own wake up call. It seems he took the step in the right direction-time will tell what comes of it.

As to Slim Kim Kim, I have no sympathy for the devil today, like it says in the song by the Rolling Stones.

68. Murdering has been a been part of their culture
Sun Oct 12, 2014, 04:14 PM
Oct 2014

long before Un came into power. If people escaped, which they seldom did, they knew that their relatives left behind were killed for revenge. Pigs don't murder. People do.

Even Christians who espouse love for one another went thru murdering stages till some of them wised up, and other religions too, until laws were changed. Think what was done in the days of slavery, suspected witchcraft, land-grabbing, etc. The US wasn't always so peaceful, and looking at Ferguson and St. Louis, it isn't now either. We have more people in prisons than any other country in the world. (Don't ask how I know, I just heard it somewhere.)

N. Korea needs new laws to protect her people instead of her government.....light will come, when I don't know...

Other Asian countries who had similar cultures have changed (not a lot) and we are friends with most of them..

Think, people. Lactose intolerance.

There will be turbulence, there will be explosions. Will you be able to go about your day as usual? No you will not. You will stay within running distance of the facilities. This is why Kim Jong-Un has been absent from the public's view. He's on his other throne.

Well, thats why for slim kim kim. They have a lot riding on him. And they are struggling with those presentations. Dismal failures you might say.

The man has everything in their world there is to have and yet they cannot seem to make him a photogenic happy looking kind of leader -and it really doesn't matter how serious they try to make him seem to be photogenically and otherwise,dismal failure all the way.

So they go with what got or what ?
