In a surprise move that is sure to shake up schoolkids in world geography classes across the globe, North Korea and North Dakota traded places yesterday. The transfer of North Dakota to Asia and North Korea to North America was far from easy. North Korea did not fit into the space formerly occupied by North Dakota, necessitating the seizure of land from South Dakota and Canada as well as the creation of a 51st state, East Korea. Citizens of neighboring states, however, are already beginning to adjust. Vernon V. Boyer of Mound City, South Dakota drove to North Dakota to buy a new John Deere tractor, only to come home with a used nuclear power plant. Asked what he thought of his new neighbors, Boyer said, "I found them to be hostile, paranoid, and starving. They're not much different from Canadians."
Thanks for making me smile!

Sure thing, DLBtW! What is the Dakota lifestyle, by the way? It has to be better than the D.C. lifestyle which can be summed up with the saying, "Even the rats here sweat."
