Ted, <But seriously, how come his last name is hyphenated?>

Actually, Kim is his last name. In Korea, the surname is mentioned first, then the given name. So if he came to America, he would be known as Jong-Il Kim. (Or "Norm," given his drinking habits. <G>)

Tenchusatsu, Norm? Is he the local Korean drunk? But what is the Il? Is that some kind of title?
