Kim Jong-il approves of this poll. The Biden Ministry of Truth is in it's infancy, but no doubt he'll be right up there with Kim in no time achieving greatness.
Let us pause, for a moment, to remember the sporting life of Kim Jong-Il, the
North Korean leader who died Saturday.
He excelled at golf and bowling — you might say he was a natural at both, if reports are to be believed.
In his very first golf game in 1994,
Kim finished an 18-hole round of golf at 38-under par — over the 7,700-yard championship course at Pyongyang, according to state media. Kim was in a zone, recording five holes-in-one (some reports have the number as high as 11). Another legend had him
bowling a perfect 300 in his first attempt at the sport, but that one may have strained the bonds of credulity to the breaking point.
His interest in soccer and basketball were better substantiated. He offered coaching advice during the 2010 World Cup,
communicating with coach Kim Jong-Hun via
invisible cellphone. “Jong Il is said to have developed the technology himself,” the coach told ESPN.
