Where's the kaboom?

Yes, well...

The miltary exercise on Yeonpyeong Island finally went off this afternoon.

The North Koreans had vowed all manner of retaliatory mayhem.

As of now, YONHAP news agency has it like this: N. Korea silent as S. Korea concludes live-fire drill near sea border.

Somewhat underwhelming to say the least. Bets are the North Koreans are laying low waiting for the South Koreans to let down their guard... which by the way was up and ready for a fight all day today.

Expect more on this story.

(snide aside)

Then again, the NorKs might have simply misplaced their "Illudium PU-36 Explosive Space Modulator".

h/t to Marvin the Martian for the title quote.
