No More Sugar On The Brain - I Moved Onto CNN!

CNN's Intrepid Reporter - Alone in North Korea

  Hello Fellow Travelers!         My doctor prescribed a medication that is 100% effective.  I spent tremendous amounts of time and energy thinking about all kinds of desserts.  I had never liked sweets of any kind but after 2011 sugar became my all-consuming passion.  It's all I thought about.       I saw an ad for Contrave and asked about any medication that might reduce my Jonesing for sugar.  A doctor prescribed Naltrexone and immediately I had my usual disdain for all things with sucrose.  I now have time to fret over the fate of Will Ripley.  Who's Will Ripley you ask?  He's the only Western correspondent allowed in North Korea.  CNN has brave Will broadcast every day from inside North Korea.  Every day I watch CNN to see whether or not Will is reporting to Wolf Blitzer about how crazy Kim Jong Un may be,

I breathe a gasp of relief every day he reports - it's one more day he hasn't been snatched off the street and arbitrarily sentenced to years of prison and hard labor.

Is it me?  Or is this guy in real danger?    

No one knows what North Korea will do!  That guy is truly nuts!  Poor Will!

I feel I'm alone in my fear for Will.  How long does he have to stay there?  Does he get hazard pay?  Has he met Kim Jong Un?  How on earth does he sleep?  Is every day like the end of "Argo"?

The saddest part of this tragedy-waiting-to-happen, is there's nothing I could do about it if he did get shoved into a van.  Have you seen this kid?  He's America personified.  Poor Will looks like Buster Posey!

I know I'm "risk averse" but reporting from "The Evil Empire" seems akin to teasing a rabid bear!

Why Will, why?  Kim is Batsh#t crazy!  Everyone knows this!

Don't play with the rabid bear! It's CNN?  Who cares?  Report from someplace else.  Anywhere else!  What did the robot say on "Lost In Space"?  "Danger! Will, Danger!"


He should get the heck out of Dodge, like now.

Until he does, I'll be watching, praying he's still the only Westerner allowed in North Korea.
