North Korea's long range rocket crashes into sea

SEOUL (Reuters) - North Korea's much hyped long-range rocket apparently crashed into the sea a few minutes after launch on Friday, South Korean and other officials said, dealing a blow to the prestige of the reclusive and impoverished state.

This is PRICELESS.
They probably spent 3/4 of their gross national product on that thing.
I wonder what the life of a North Korean Rocket Scientist is worth tonight?

This is why all the really smart bad guys kidnap their scientists from civilized countries. I bet Israel breathed easier after that. Long live the Semites!!!!!

Slim Pickens road the Hydrogen Bomb all the way down to detonation after dislodging it from it's mount, all to "When Johnny Comes Marching Home Again" in the soundtrack.
George C Scott played General Buck Turgidson, to perfection. The scene in the War Room where he tells all of the Officials how a good B-52 Pilot could take one of those birds anywhere is priceless.

These geniuses are obviously not quite ready for prime time, are they?
The fat kid who inherited daddy's and grandpa's dictatorship is probably in a pretty foul mood today! It's likely not a good time to be one of the higher-ups in North Korea's "military establishment", such as it is.
I loved this phrase in the first sentence of the linked story:
"...dealing a blow to the prestige of the reclusive and impoverished state."
Prestige? LMAO!
Hasn't the DPRK's "prestige" suffered self-inflicted blows for...what, a little over six decades now!?

I guess Mrs. Kim is not going to get some tonight. Her man's missile failed on launch.
