...could get our hands on,” the Hun states. “But maybe you should ask not who the Huns can kill for you, but who you can kill for the Huns.” “Funny New York Things” is an obvious satire of the tourist’s demand to get acquainted with New Yorkers’ personalities. Handey satirizes the notoriously uncaring ethos of that city. After falling out of a cab, the narrator says, “Even though you’re all scraped up and your bones...

"I doubt they're walking away," says one diplomat involved in the talks. Yes, they say, North Korea's obvious and serial proliferation is a huge problem. That's why getting Pyongyang to mothball its plutonium program has already been a significant accomplishment. Convincing Kim to surrender his stash of weapons, and whatever plutonium it has left over, would be another big step forward, and should remain the focus...
