My personal opinion, for what it’s worth, is that Kim Jong Il is not playing

with a full deck. By which I mean to say, his smoke does not go all the way

up the chimney. His elevator does not go up to the penthouse. He is, in

other words, not too tightly wrapped, not quite sixteen annas to the rupee.

He has bats in the belfry and a bee in his bonnet. To put it another way,

he is one sandwich short of a picnic, one brick short of a load, one coupon

short of a toaster, one fairy short of a Christmas tree.

In short, I think he’s nuts.
