We've Got No Constitutional Changes!
A Korean businessman goes to the U.S. on business (plus some golf) and is chatting with his American colleague, who asks, "Who is Korea's president?" As many Korean businessmen (especially in my company) are apt to be, he speaks in Konglish: We have No President" (노대통령). The American is surprised and asks, "You have no president? Do you have any problems running your system that way?" The Korean thinks for a second and says, "Yes, we have No problem." Well, the guy may not be the a 100 watt bulb (I suppose they don't make those here), but he sure knows how to grab the spotlight away from Mrs. Park and Mr. Lee. I think we will be hearing a lot from him and his idea to reduce the presidential term to 4 years and allow for reelection one time. I remember him mentioning it when he was a candidate. That's one thing you gotta respect about him: He says what he wants, for better or for worse (usually the latter).

You surely can get 100 watt bulbs here, although crappy 60 is the norm, as far as I can tell. I tried to get a nice bright 200 watter for the bathroom but that appears to be impossible.
