Unintentionally funny AP headline

funny-headline.jpg

Props to the AP writers Pamela Hess and Matthew Lee for their headline on the dear leader Kim John Il's possible health issues.

The news story may be pure speculation and rumor. (You know, like how Iraq had WMD's.) But the headline is a winner.

Anyway, in short...

Western officials say there are signs that North Korea's unpredictable dictator may be gravely ill, after the man North Koreans call the "Dear Leader" apparently failed to show up at an important national celebration Tuesday.

There was no sign of Kim Jong Il at a closely watched parade Tuesday marking the 60th anniversary of North Korea's founding, and the country's state media was silent about his absence. His last reported public appearance was August 12.

Glad I captured the headline in picture because they've already rewritten it.

We're even more glad.

Rumour has it that Kim Jong Il has got Ass Crickets from a cabaret dancer, but let's wait for the real deal.

It's a good thing that it wasn't a Run DMC-related stroke at a local Obama rally.

Ailing Il Ill from Illin' in Illinois.

That would be annoying.
