Salam from Iran!

[Perham]

Great pic, Perham. Looks like a beautiful part of the country.

dorfak mountains in the north of Iran. the only place in the world that you can see sun rise and sun set over the sea on a mountain. it's even mentioned in the epic of gilgamesh.

Wow!
I want to go to Bukhara someday. One of my friend's family is from their originally and they kept the family home.

Perhaps not the city of Bukhara but the region of Bokharaie. It's his last name .

 

[Perham]

bukhara is in Uzbekistan today. however, it was a part of Iran before. we still have many "bukharaie" surnames in Iran.

Welcome, Perham.

Come for the sillyness, stay for the tomfoolery.

 

[catzmeow]

I'm the only one on the ground.

You look so normal.

 

[Perham]

You look so normal.

I'm no extra ordinary man!

 

[catzmeow]

I'd say you were hot, but since I'm old enough to be your mom, that's probably a little creepy for both of us.

So we read "reading lolita in tehran" for book club last month and I thought when Nafisi left the country in like 1999 the women still had to wear the chador, when did that change? She also made it sound like internet or really a lot of tech was illegal, which they sort of say about China too (censorship) and some other places and I thought that was why there aren't a *lot* of middle easterners and etc on the internet, compared to yanks brits and europeans generally (and aussies).

So what gives?

Welcome.

 

[Perham]

youth is a spiritual factor. some spirits just don't age.

 

[Caligirl]

What time is it there?

Has Santa come yet?

I'll be answering this question in this thread: http://www.usmessageboard.com/iran/65937-any-questions-about-iran.html
just to keep everything in place.

it's 6:22 am here. and I don't think Santa comes here. we don't have that much of Christians around, so it's not economically efficient for him to come. he sends the stuff by DHL.

Hi everyone,

political forum's atmosphere is getting tough, although I'm not a problem maker, but many of my friends has been banned form there or not posting there so much. so I decided to join here. I'm considered as a centerist, I'm a little leaning to right, I'm muslim, and I'm from Iran.

cheers!

Salam-laykum, welcome to the board.

Less moderation = more better forum. Treating adults like adults is a good thing.

Adults acting like adults is as well.

Too much to hope for.

O NOEZ!

 

[Shogun]

the god of irony is smiling upon this thread, apparently.

Shitgun, I'm not pleased by your attempts to defend child molesters.
