Busy days

Kamangir | November 12, 2007 | Category Personal

When you are a blogger, blogging is what you do. Sometimes, however, things we do to prepare for blogging, such as dealing with technical issues, distract us from doing what we have exactly set up our blogs for, i.e. blogging. This rather twisted sentence is maybe the best way to describe my situation during these days.

I am preparing for a trip to Cairo, for a scientific conference (I talked about it here). At the same time, I am being sucked into the Persian blogosphere, mainly because of the fabulous community we are building there. That’s my main “reason” for having not updated here in the last few days.

I mentioned all this to assert that I am alive and that I am following the news. I am going to a very long trip, passing through many European capitals. That means that I will have a lot of pictures to share in less than a month. In the mean time, do not lose the opportunity of getting to know the “Persian Young Goats“, as Ahmadinejad put it a few days ago.

As this comes from Elias Bejjani, Chairman for the Canadian Lebanese Coordinating Council (LCCC) Human Rights activist, journalist & political commentator, you may be interested:

Kamangir: Nice to meet you sir.

Perhaps while you’re in Cairo you might be able to take in a showing of the movie, “300.” The Egyptian crowd’s reaction might shake the foundation of any notion of pan-Islamic brotherhood in the 21st century.

Kamangir: You mean they liked it?

Ah, yes, “wonderful” speech of Nasrallah in which he calls many Lebanese “thieves and murderers who are followers of the American-Zionist project”.
Ahmadinejad’s “devil worshipers” is also quite interesting turn of phase. It reminds me of summer nights filled with devil-worshiping witches dancing on the “Bald Mountain” somewhere in the deep wilderness of Eurasian mountains.(teleportation, you know)
Ah, yes, these were the days……………….;-)

Should be “turn of phrase” i/o “turn of phase”
btw “the night on the bald mountain” looked like that

Kam, they were standing in their seats cheering the death of the ‘fars.’

Arash-jan, have a safe trip. I’ll keep my fingers crossed for your presentation (and for Azadeh’s too, of course). Khodaa-Haafez (and don’t be too self-conscious about your English! I had to learn it, too, and so did everyone else who came to the New World from a non-Anglophone country to get an education — and educate a few Americans/Canadians in turn. It’s all about giving and receiving, and you give a lot, no matter how polished your English is. Oh, and: If you get to Berlin one day, let me know!)

Kamangir: I will, thanks. :)

Kamangir, I send the same wishes to you for your successful journey and safe return, as Liber does, above.

I have come to really rely upon you and this website for learning the truth about Iran. So I send to you my support and my prayers for your safe trip, friend. And we are all looking forward to seeing those photographs upon your return.

Kamangir: Thanks! Your support means a lot to me. :)
