Angry Obama.


On Thursday my 6th graders told me that "barack" is actually a Korean expression for "angry." Apparently many Koreans find it funny that our new president's name is Angry Obama. Who knew?

  1. That is wild. Can you tell me what "George" means in Korean? Speaking of George, be sure to check out this article in the Freepress (I know you dearly miss this godforsaken newspaper).

    Good ol' Bernie is at it again. It would be great if he could focus on some real shit, like the recession, or how the governor wants to cut school spending. But at least he is sticking to his guns making sure Bush looks like an ass.

    On a side note, it was -10 when I started my car this morning and it is supposed to hit -20 Friday morning. You miss VT yet?
