    One of those eagles nearly swooped off with our pet fox terrier, this time of year in Tehran in 1975. We found our little dog cowering in the corner of the outside front doorway of our grandmother's house, beyond us way up in the distance, an eagle perched on a top branch of what might have been the tallest tree in Shemiran.

    "What a pathetic inferiority complex" that certain people have, therefore feeling an urge to make comments that contribute nothing and are of no relevance, yes.

    If they don't stop naming stuff in Arabic or after Arabic figures, I'm going to have to believe that these people are really Taziani Arabs lol!
