So, someone decided it would be cool to send Dennis Rodman and the Harlem Globetrotters to North Korea for a little basketball diplomacy.
At first glance I thought this was some strange story out of the Twilight Zone or the Onion on a slow news day. However, the more I thought about it, the more it started to make sense to me. For decades we've been sending mostly rational, reasonably intelligent people on diplomatic missions to North Korea with poor results. How in the hell do you deal with people that only speak "crazy"? Aha! Let's send over people that speak the same language!
This whole time we might have been having one big misunderstanding with each other. Their videos of visiting nuclear destruction upon America might have just been their way of saying "Party at your place bro, we'll bring the keg!"
Deploy The Worm!
If the worst thing that happens is that nine months from now Ri Sol-ju gives birth to a few dark skinned babies with neon green afros, it will have been a worthwhile mission.
