My favorite part of this one:
"A tearful Kim Yong Ho said Kim Jong Il had made people's lives happier. 'That is what he was doing when he died: working, traveling on a train,' he said."
Call me a conspiracy theorist, but a sudden and unexplained heart attack sounds a little suspect to me...
EDIT: Also worth noting,

N. Korea conducted a short range missile test the day after KJI's death. Officials won't confirm the test, but say that if one had happened, it was 'routine'.
And things remained the way they were in crazy ol' North Korea.
