Where, oh where, is Kim Jong Il

It is now obvious that North Korean dictator Kim Jong Il is dead or incapacitated. His former government is making very poor attempts to dispel such rumors, but they are all so badly executed (like many of his enemies) that even the most basic Photoshop user can spot the errors.
They first released a story that he was at a football game for military teams. But no pictures. And this was after he had missed some of the biggest events of the year, including the 60th anniversary of the nation. Pictures and video would have been natural. Especially from a guy who is as in love with himself as Kim. Then they release a photo of him in some sort of VIP booth with a cheesy smile. The image looked like it was taken in 1962 with a shaky lens from a NASA video camera. Grainy and blurry. Obviously someone in the "Kim Is Still Alive" department had missed a deadline and threw something together. And yesterday, they release a military still photo of him surrounded by troops. (See link above.) One small problem - his shadow doesn't match everyone else's.
So what happens now? Someone in North Korea is running the show, but we don't know who. They have some level of nuclear explosives, but it is rudimentary and has not yet been used since Kim's departure. And the United States has a new President who is open to discussion with horrible leaders like Kim. Will Obama solve the North Korean crisis? According to change.gov, it would seem he will speak with whoever is in control. That would definitely be a new course in American policy. Maybe his real plan is to get Castro, Ahmadinejad, Kim, Putin, and Jintao in a room and let some psychos from PETA and Amnesty International eliminate them. I hope they post it on YouTube!
