This Could Be My Longest Blog Posting Yet ... But It Isn’t

Here is the scenario...

• North Korea is feverously working on its Nuclear Weapons Program.
• Other concerned countries (hereinafter called Six Party Negotiators) ask North Korea to stop feverously working on its nuclear weapons program.
• North Korea says, “No way, Jose” (in Korean).
• Six Party Negotiators tell North Korea, “We will give you tons and tons of food for your starving people, if you will stop feverously working on your nuclear weapons program”.
• North Korea says, “OK we will stop” (in Korean).
• Six Party Negotiators give tons and tons of food to North Korea for its starving people.
• Six Party Negotiators find out that North Korea is feverously working on its nuclear weapons program.
• Six Party Negotiators say to North Korea, “We had an agreement whereby you would stop feverously working on your nuclear weapons program”.
• North Korea smiles (in Korean) and says to the Six Party Negotiators, “What agreement?” (in Korean).

I just heard you say to yourself, “Self, this blog posting is not that long.” (I bet you are wondering how I know what you are saying to yourself.)

The Smartfella says it could have been a lot longer if the nine bullets above had been repeated over and over and over because these nine bullets have happened over and over and over.

We now have a new agreement with North Korea. The News Media is calling it a “Breakthrough”.

Let us all hope that the Umpteenth Time Is A Charm.

Would I kid you?
