What singled this young man out?

I believe I read that he was over there spouting off about Thomas Jefferson and the NK watchdogs heard about this wonderful American revolutionary and promptly arrested him for subversion of govt.

Indoctrinated? Most likely, but when people are hungry and unhappy they look for a way out.

The tour agency looks to be based in Xian, not Beijing, if that makes any difference. Were there other westerners in this group? What singled this young man out? Was he approached by someone, either for help or as a setup? When the North Koreans want something they are not loathe to create their own bargaining chips. But then again who is this guy? Did he attempt to head out somewhere verboten, innocently or not so? More information is needed to know if he's in deep do-do or not. I hope he gets home soon whatever.

depends if the low redevelops over south carolina (looking like it might) in which case yeah youd get a second wave. The next hour will be really telling. shoots down my 24" forecast though

Noon. 1/22/2016. State College, PA:

The barn is closed up, and I am in my horsecoat. The farmer brought a new layer of hay for the stall. It is comfortable.

I saw a snowflake a minute ago. It may have fallen off of a tree.

The cows won't shut up. The farmer is keeping them inside. So begins the weekend of my discontent. There will be little snow to enjoy.

I've had a few carrots and an apple. It is too little to sate my hunger. My food trough is only half-full.

The cows won't shut up. They are driving me mad.

This may be my final entry...

Thanks for the compliment on the post....the bar has been set. I usually prefer to limbo under the bar than to pole vault over it...

Glad you liked it.

Are we going to get back in the snow, or should I start shoveling?

Update: Still no snow in Christiansburg just this mornings. The kids have been sledding in the stormwater dry pond since about 7 am. I haven't seen a plow yet.

The dog has discovered running next to the fence there is less now and her spot under the deck also is pretty clear. She runs around like mad, try's to discover who is getting her butt cold when she squats, rolls in the snow then comes in to lie in front of the woodstove.

Did anyone see Interstellar?

Maybe he has been traveling the galaxy....Drew Harris might come back to play for the Hokies and be 45 years old.

Good news - a TKPer has the ability to resolve the issue. Egbert can send some of his Coldbeer to Kim Jong-un in exchange for Warmbier.

You know I am not sure, and I probably should since I went to Hargrave when they still had PG football. Still would not want to go to FUMA very Depressing

This post isn't directed at you. Your thread got deleted because it was a duplicate of the one Joe created.

Yeah da burg got the dry slot. For all you snow lovers out there...I'm sorry :( for all you snow haters out there enjoy getting much less than you shouldve!!!

I remember riding around in my Eagle Premier with snow tires laughing at all the 4WD in the snow banks. Then heard a radio report that if you didn't have chains or a 4WD you shouldn't be on the road. I put in a tape.

Isn't FUMA usually subsidized in some way by the school that the kid plans on attending after prepping? I thought that is why most players verbal somewhere with the understanding that they will prep and attend said college the following year.

so posting 2 tweets about someone committing to Marshall is not acceptable or was it the comments/lack of comments inside that made it a no go?

Can I create a topic on what Qualifiers, Partial Qualifiers and Non Qualifiers are so people understand what could have happened that way they can understand it better than just "Grades"? I think it would be a enlightening post especially since VT has had its fair share of kids prep.

If not that is fine.
