Kim Jong Il 'Possibly Dead' Claim

[xrayzebra]

That is what some news people are reporting. Said we have been
negotiating with a body double..........some guy claims he has been since
2003....holy smokes 2003.

I heard it on Fox News but this is the only link I could really find.

Strange.

I claim that wild cherry pepsi is better than cherry coke unless it's homemade but that is pure speculation

Your right Hustle. But when reputable [?] news agencies start putting this junk out
you have to wonder.

Interesting.

WGAF? He's not even the president of North Korea.

So you agree? Then maybe there is some fact to that claim. It’s true that I have not been drinking wild cherry pepsi half as long as I have been drinking cherry coke but once I tried it I was pleasantly surprised. I know that some people have tried both and say they taste like cough syrup so maybe it’s flavor is something that I have slowly acquired or maybe I am missing a certain taste bud that others have. While it’s true that I cannot taste the 23 flavors that are in Dr Pepper I can probably grab a strong 5 or six and judging by those flavors that my palate is able to pick up I would venture to say that cherry Dr Pepper would be delightful. Not that chocolate stuff either just plain cherry. I would highly recommend that the next time you visit your local Sonic you ask for a cherry Dr Pepper.
I am not sure when cherry coke was introduced or even if it preceded wild cherry Pepsi but I am still very shocked that Dr Pepper never tried to come out with their own version save the diet chocolate cherry. I suppose it is the same as when vanilla colas were introduced and I believe, and I could be wrong, that Pepsi never released a vanilla cola. There must some agreement between the major companies in regards to flavors.

How long did Dave (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0106673/) run the USA before he snuck out?

What about Jack Noah, running the country of Parador (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0095654/)?

HOLY CRAP! They listened to me! MMMMMMM Cherry Dr Pepper

This is exciting news! lol @ everyone just reading the boring title and not realizing that this thread is all about cherry colas.

It would explain some of what is going on.

The fact is that he WILL die eventually, and who/what will replace him is a total unknown.

I would not guess that he has been dead since 2003, because he has been seen enough in public since that time and the continuity of the government has been fairly consistant up until recently.

The recent harder line stance indicates that the possibility that the even more hard-line military is running things is a fair one.

Who knows, really?

I would, at any rate, trust China to keep it's pet in check no matter what.

What does that have to do with cherry cola?

I really don't buy the dead for 5 years bit. A body double for public events make sense. I believe the news that came out in September about him having a stroke:
