North Korea 'sunk South Korean warship', killing 46 sailors

[ivor]

Now they are saying something about a torpedo being the cause.  I guess they weren't listening and/or going to slow.

[Swatopluk]

A short notice in yesterdays's papers read as if the ship got a surface hit.

[ivor]

Really?  I'm beginning to think it was aliens since there's so much confusion.

[Swatopluk]

It is the Korean equivalent of the Kennedy assassination. If all theories were true, a lot of the bullets would not have hit the president because they would have hit each other.

[ivor]

LOL!  So it's the magic torpedo theory?

I saw in the press that they fired on a flock of birds earlier.  That's a classic implanted memory from alien abduction, seeing an animal I mean.

[Sibling Zono (anon1mat0)]

Wait, the about-to-be-sunken boat fired on a flock of birds? Oh, they had it coming!!

[Sibling DavidH]

But they had to assume the birds were communist agents with anti-ship capabilities.  Can't afford to take chances. 

[Aggie]

Knowing Koreans, it's more likely that the birds looked tasty... 

[Sibling DavidH]

Yup, they would make a change from dogs, I suppose.

That was just quackers.

Too early in the season, bo shin tang is best for the hottest days of summer.  Besides, that stuff is too expensive for military rations. 

[Swatopluk]

Yes, the navy works for chicken feed as usual
Btw. don't play chicken with a live torpedo!

[ivor]

Unless you close on it before it arms...

[Swatopluk]

I would not bet on that.
A) 'They' probably have seen "Hunt for Red October" (iirc it was not in the book. There the sub survives the torpedo hit* and fatally rams the opponent)
B) as the first article said, North Koreans are expected to even stay within kill range

*the Typhoon class is about the only sub that could actually pull that off
