You guys know that I generally like to post science related news on the temp. If I come across a particularly good or interesting story, I'll be sure to post it. Lately I've been waiting for something special, a bit of news that would really break the mold. For a while there, I wasn't sure if anything would fit the bill.

And then my fears were put to rest, once and for all.

Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you the scientific discovery of the century, all the way over from North Best Korea.
Archaeologists of the History Institute of the DPRK Academy of Social Sciences have recently reconfirmed a lair of the unicorn rode by King Tongmyong, founder of the Koguryo Kingdom (B.C. 277-A.D. 668).

The lair is located 200 meters from the Yongmyong Temple in Moran Hill in Pyongyang City. A rectangular rock carved with words "Unicorn Lair" stands in front of the lair. The carved words are believed to date back to the period of Koryo Kingdom (918-1392).

That's right: Unicorns exist, and at least one was Korean. No word yet on Unicron, however.

The article goes on to mention that this profound discovery proves beyond a reasonable doubt that Pyongyang was the capital city of Ancient Korea. Take that, South Worst Korea! Your legitimacy just got sacked!

I have to say, this is a really amazing development, one that I never would have predicted in a thousand years. While the rest of the world is busy faffing about, the scientific marvel of North Korea continues to push humanity forward.

Sure, we live safely outside a nightmare ripped straight from the pages of Orwell, but they get a unicorn. Tell me, who's the real winner here?

I thought so.

Oh, so first they place into power one of the youngest world leaders then they claim to have found existence of horses that once had long, hard horns - and that at least one of said stallions was Korean? I can't help but wonder if they're trying to compensate for something...

Wow, can't argue with that

I know, right? North Korea gets unicorns, so naturally Japan gets dragons...Can't have 'em here, you'd need clearance from the FAA.

I can safely say it's my favorite novel series, I mean, dragons are not only benevolent, but they are also highly intelligent and can travel through time and space. Who wouldn't want a time-travelling dragon that bonds with you psychologically? Ann McAffrey was a great writer. A dragon would make an excellent companion and form of transportation, would it not? I'd better stop before I get in trouble for any further derailing:shy:

Did anyone ever consider that the word "Unicorn" might have had a completely different meaning back in 918-1392 compared to that of today?
