Sargord Pirouz or Hooman Majd ?????
by Sepah Salar on Mon Oct 18, 2010 05:44 PM PDTI really wonder if Homman Majd is your real identity???? you sure sound like him in your comments.
Mark, now you live and
by Cost-of-Progress on Mon Oct 18, 2010 09:18 AM PDTBS in America (so you say) and are impressed by and support the actions of an anti-iran regime.
Is it any wonder I continue to ask:
"What's your story man" - are you for friggin' real?
PS, ever thought of calling the Iranian interest section in DC and asking them for a job in the ministry of this and that in the beloved government you so vehemently defend? I am sure they would not say NO, but your islamic knowledge must be impecable. No need to know anything about Iran and her history (which you don't anyway, of course).

Your Welcome Faramarz Jaan
by Darius Kadivar on Mon Oct 18, 2010 08:56 AM PDTThanks for your interesting feedbacks on British Airways too.
You lived and "studies" in Tehran? ...
by Darius Kadivar on Mon Oct 18, 2010 08:55 AM PDTWith all your prejudice about the past ... No wonder you can't handle a past tense properly ...
Now Go and Enjoy Your Bike Ride:
Thanks DK
by Faramarz on Mon Oct 18, 2010 08:37 AM PDTThe Shah clips and the Iran Air / Mehrabad ones are priceless. Thanks for digging up the fond memories.
Back then, British Airways was called BOAC (British Overseas Airways Corp.) and leaving on a BOAC flight to London was so impressive!
Well, Darius, in a past
by Sargord Pirouz on Mon Oct 18, 2010 08:36 AM PDTWell, Darius, in a past comment I have conceded that every once in a while I get a kick out of the 70s time warp. How couldn't I? I lived and studies in Tehran at the time.
But I admit, the amusement is rare.
Most of the time I find the time warp boorish and repetitive. To an extent, it's typical of some middle-aged folks, only worse among certain elements of the middle-aged Iranian diaspora who unrealistically content themselves with the most fantastic delusions of how it never was, and will never be again.
13th Legion Jaan Merci Beaucoup
by Darius Kadivar on Mon Oct 18, 2010 08:35 AM PDTGlad you enjoyed this.

Thanks for your interesting feedbacks as usual.
Warm Regards,

by Darius Kadivar on Mon Oct 18, 2010 08:30 AM PDTSo Why Waste Your Time commenting about your numerous overqualified relatives ( about whom nobody cares about anyhow) on my Uninteresting, Uneducational and Irrelevant Blogs and Grace it with your Unshaved, unwashed and smelly 80'ish Hezbollahi Bassiji Photo ? ...

by Sargord Pirouz on Mon Oct 18, 2010 08:15 AM PDTBack in the 70s, I used to get a kick out of the way my Iranian relatives used to pronounce "Hilton."
They pronounced it something like Hil-tonn-eh. The extra syllable always cracked me up.
MAD MEN & Rubicon ;)
by 13th Legion on Mon Oct 18, 2010 07:11 AM PDTGreat post DK…I personally don’t watch a lot of TV any more but have a 2 favorite shows that I am hocked on: MAD MAN is on top of my list, wonderful storey line, cast and crew, also” Rubicon” is another, if you haven’t already I recommend you look it up, I think you’d like it ;)
Rubicon is an American television series created by Jason Horwitch and produced by Henry Bromell that is broadcast on the AMC television network. The series centers around an intelligence analyst at a national think tank called the American Policy Institute (API) who discovers that he may be working with members of a secret society that manipulates world events on a grand scale.
IRAN is one of the frequent topics in this show.
