I thought you were straight. I am devastated. How can you do this to me? BTW that video clip was stupid.
I have nothing ...

I am a homosexual man and I have been in a loving relationship with another man for sixteen years now. I have nothing against Iranian, American, or Arab men. I have dated man of many nationalities before till I found the right one. This hatred towards Arabs needs to stop whether it is from Kouroush or any one else. We need to focus our attention on preventing another war in the Gulf.
I spent three months in the South and swam in those blue waters! I recall when the Iraqis on Saddam's [Koskesheh arab] orders blew up and released thousands of gallons of oil in the Gulf, as the American kicked his arab kon nashor ass out of Kuwait - the seaturtles, the birds, it was just terrible!
Of course, the Americans' destruction of Iranian oil platforms did not help the delicate ecosystem!
The arabs in UAE have nearly destroyed their coastline building offshore, because they don't have enough land!
I'm sure that you already know that the Sea Horse is a very delicate and extraordinary creature. It requires a delicate balance in the ocean to exist and it is too close to extinction in many areas of the world because of all the pollution, and over fishing of it.
I'm sure that you are also aware that they dry up the Sea horse or put them in jars as sourvenirs for tourists around the world. Sea horses are also dried up and ground up to be sold in Asian markets for either medicinal purposes or as some sort of aphrodisiac (seriously doubt it works).
As I have mentioned to you before, I live on the coast of the Gulf Of Mexico in Texas. There are a lot of refineries in the area which has caused as much pollution if not more so than the Persian Gulf. There have been many oil spills in the area.
I have seen first hand some of the effects of pollution on the sea life.
The water was so bad on the Galveston Beach that at times tourists have not been allowed to be in it. I am sure the Persian Gulf was once a beautiful place only to have been polluted by humanity.
Many sea animals have washed up on the coast line through out the years because of all the pollution.
Omid Hast thank you for providing the links, which were eerily familiar to the ones I have seen for the Texas coast line.

You kinda mentioned that it takes a long time for you to draw digitally, so how come you don't do it the old fashioned way, for quicker results, if you don't mind.
.
And being metrosexual is cool. Like, who would wanna go out with a total brute?! pheww! no way! Everything in balance!
abees! People, well, they leave much to be desired, but the asbeh abees have no choice but to deal with the most vicious animals on this planet.
I do want to hear your thoughts on the asbs! It is in your picuture! I can understand peoples' concern about the people looking from the beach. I can even understand the concern for the combatants, but, once we are gone they can go back to a life free of polution, oil spills, and ***!
Both of my sons had to endure a great deal of pain to have their teeth straightened. Not by my choice but by their father's choice. The oldest one really could have done without it. Now, my youngest did really need it.
After ever orthodontic visit my son's would be on the floor with pain and all I could do was give them some tylenol, cold water to drink, and hold them to comfort them.
I would have spared at least my oldest son from all the suffering he endured for about two years just to make his father happy.
The reason I asked you about your nose in comparison to Maria Callas was because of what you had posted in your Confessions of a Secret Agent article, and you did remember it. Here is what you said: “Please note the big nose. I LIKE it. And tell your female "hamvatans" to STOP MUTILATING THEIR FACES, from Tehran to Tehrangeles. I know, I know, big noses don't look too good with headscarves but the nose will stay long after the headscarf is gone... Callas had one, Sophia had one, Irene Pappas, Farah had one too...and Streisand …” I thought Maria Callas nose was fine, so if your nose is smaller, less pointy, and a little bulbous then it must be perfect, not that it would make any difference to you, since you would have been perfectly content with whatever nose nature gave you.
Last time I visited Iran my nice told me very as a matter of factly that she was going to have a nose job very soon. I was shocked; there seemed to be nothing wrong with her nose. The sad thing was that her mother and younger sister were in complete agreement with her and they were saying it wasn’t a big deal. I did my best to talk her out of it, and I don’t think she has done it yet.
Since we are in the subject of facial beauty I’d like to ask you, what is your opinion about orthodontic treatment for non-medically related dental beautification? Would it be alright for people to wear dental braces for two years just to enhance their smiles? How about skin peel to reduce the effect of acne scars, and removal of enlarged moles, and things of that nature? What's the difference between a skin peel and piling up a ton of make up to hide the scars, and where would you draw the line? And, wherever that line is would that not be the same as Mullahs telling people how to behave?
somehow I got a wistful feeling from it, like they are contemplating things beyond their comprehension, trying to grasp the meanings of things, and wondering what this "America" means to them...it seems somehow...poignant...
My nose is smaller than Callas's and less pointy because I'm Jewish, it's a little bulbous at the end. So I think she had a more beautiful nose. (Tell your female hamvatans to STOP mutilating their faces!)
I also have a very good voice but NOT as good as Callas's, for sure!!!
Can someone help me with changing my Microsoft Works Word Processor (MWWP) into typing Persia / Farsi? (noticed I used both Persian and Farsi, not to offend any Iranians).
I have a Windows Vista Home Premium computer. I have gone as far as changing the font to Farsi, and have changed the keyboard to Persian (noticed how I interchanged Farsi and Persian, not to offend anyone). But, the text displays from left to right instead of right to left in MWWP, but in some other text entree windows it writes from right to left.
I have two cartoons that are pending captions in Persian.
(Equal number of Farsi and Persian is use, so I believe I am safe)
Today is a new day and the opportunity for a new beginning. I look forward to reading your next contribution on the website.
Omid Hast...I also look forward to your next cartoon. :o) Like they say a picture can mean a thousand words. Everyone can take a different view of it. It is what makes your cartoons so interesting.
Did you wonder about the innocent observers at the beach in this regional conflict? Did you wonder, what is going to happen to the family once the bullets start flying? That’s all I tried to say.
Shaida, you are...shocking!
