Kim Jong Il Dead

Sundae · 12-29-2011, 06:59 AM

People mourn celebrities who had far less actual input in their daily lives.

And I have heard much sillier things than this after someone has died.

They even attributed the heavy snow fall ahead of the funeral to the “heaven’s grief” over Kim Jong-il’s death.

Here, they wouldn't even pick a body from the morgue with that thing.

Thanks! I had seen the pictures all over the place and none of them identified the car. I think that's one of the more important parts of the story. The best car they have in North Korea is a 1976 Lincoln. Sure, it was nice in its day, and this one looks like it's in good shape. But wtf? They hate the USA, and they are carrying the dude around on the roof of an old American car? Although I suppose the rank and file over there doesn't know it's American.

I figured they would have some new Chinese car or something. BYD of China apparently provides cars to the NK police, why not a large sedan? Maybe this was his limo and they just put him on the roof. You would think he could afford a newer limo that wasn't made by his arch enemy.

I wonder if it's the same car that carried his father.
