Seriously, Ahmadinejad what were you thinking?

I hope you've heard about this. Iranian president comes under fire for kissing the hand of his former teacher who--they make sure to mention--was "wearing thick gloves, a headscarf, and a long black coat".

did you like five point someone? and i just read your obituary and it got me thinking about mine (well done btw.. "His never-ending quest for knowledge made him a walking encyclopedia and a source of endless trivia--roles he clearly cherished."-- truly inspired)

and i don't think i can write mine. somehow sarcasm just isn't something i'm willing to settle for. i think i'm emailing people tonight to contribute a sentence each. now isn't that inspired??

I did not like five point someone. I have nothing against the story but it was just very very poorly written. The man has absolutely no idea of what transitions and the book hits you like staccato.
Sorry, I'm just a tough customer to please.

i didn't like it either. i just didn't want to bias you :D

Hehe.
So there you have it.
Also, I'm marginally (since, I'm speaking to an economist after all) wondering what this has to do with Ahmadinejad.

And how many people have left comments on others blogs which consist of the words "I just read your obituary".
Not many I hope.
