The North Korean Air force, consisting of hundreds of beautifully colored kites and a hot air balloon were told to “Stand down but with string in hand and continue to be ready” by their ‘Fearless Leader and Chief Organizer’ Kim Jong Un, as he waved happily from the newest ship in their fleet.
The ship, a modest vessel with no engine lays claim to the title of ‘The Quietest Ship Afloat.’ “It’s a stealth vessel and they’ll never hear us coming” said Yong Mon mu, an Admiral and chief ‘stick holder’ for the fleet of one.
“We’ve contacted the Guinness Book of Records and they said they would speak to ‘Ripley’s believe it or Not’ on our behalf” said a spokesperson.
Made of beams from the newly defunct main library of Pyongyang, its maiden and only voyage took place in a nearby lake.
The guidance system consisted of a sailor with a ‘gondola type’ stick which proved to be useless in water deeper than 5 feet during the ‘sea trials’ but hopefully will work out on the high seas.
The vessel is powered by eight sailors who were promised shore leave if they ever came back alive.
It might take us a while to get there” said the ‘Manager of Every Aspect of Korean Life’ “but we’ll cross the ocean and deliver a blow to the imperialists of America and escape before they know what hit them. Of course the tide has to be right.”
