Yesterday when I got home my wife gave me a glass of water. I drank it and then without saying a word she gave me another glass of water. I drank it and placed the empty glass on the counter and then without saying a word she gave me another glass of water. I drank it and sat down on the couch and then without saying a word she gave me another glass of water. I drank it and turned on the TV and then without saying a word she gave me another glass of water. I drank it and changed the channel and then without saying a word she gave me another glass of water. I drank it and indicated I was no longer thirsty and then without saying a word she gave me another glass of water. I drank it and said no more water and then without saying a word she gave me another glass of water. I drank it and screamed put your listening ears on and then without saying a word she gave me another glass of water. I drank it and said why so much water and then without saying a word she gave me another glass of water. I drank it and got up from the couch and then without saying a word she gave me another glass of water. I drank it and said the next glass coming my way will be broken and then without saying a word she gave me another glass of water. I drank it and started going towards the bathroom and then without saying a word she gave me another glass of water. I drank it and said here I'm gonna pee and then without saying a word she gave me another glass of water. I drank it and said I must escape as I ran towards the front door and then without saying a word she gave me another glass of water. I drank it and tripped over the carpet and then without saying a word she gave me another glass of water. I drank it and said why are you doing this and then without saying a word she gave me another glass of water. I drank it as I lay helpless on the ground with a bruised elbow and then without saying a word she gave me another glass of water. I drank it and cried for help and then without saying a word she gave me another glass of water. I drank it and remembered the day when I saw Dancing with Wolves in the theaters and then without saying a word she gave me another glass of water. I drank it and tried to wrestle her hand off of my mouth and then without saying a word she gave me another glass of water. I drank it and tried to spit the water out and then without saying a word she gave me another glass of water. I drank it and then she shot me in the face.

I remember when I first arrived in the US due to the different culture I was brought up in, the folks in town teased me and considered me "not right" and implied slight mental illness or simply being different. I was in a relationship of some kind with this girl in town. She once told me, “Everybody thinks I should be afraid of you, but I’m not.” The town's sheriff would take photographs of us and follow one or both of us in his vehicle. Eventually I caught her making love to an unidentified person. Shortly afterwards the sheriff also arrived and spotted me. I fled, leaving my scarf behind on the branch of a bush. My girlfriend disappeared under suspicious circumstances and was later found dead. Shunned by many, I was immediately considered the main suspect. While in the interrogation room, I was shown a white cloth, which the sheriff identified as the item used to strangle the girl. I denied that the girl and I were romantically involved. Locals vandalized o...
At 12:00 PM on Saturday, October 28, 2023, in honor of Cyrus the Great Day, you are invited to our unveiling of a monumental statue of Cyrus the Great at the Millennium Gate dedicated to liberty, justice and peace. Cyrus the Great, founder of the Achaemenid empire, upon liberating Babylon, freed the slaves, established racial equality and rights for women, declared that all people had the right to choose their own religion and returned their various gods to their shrines. He also helped the Jews build The Second Temple. According to the Book of Isaiah, Cyrus was anointed by God as a messiah for these actions, the only non-Jewish figure to be revered in this capacity. Iranian and Jewish peoples share an ancient bond of friendship that modern Islamic fanaticism has tried (and failed) to destroy. Remembering the past is a powerful perspective for shaping the future; one where diverse peoples and cultures live together in freedom and harmony.  Cyrus the Great’s decrees...
I saw him after the 1998 World Cup where he had called a controversial penalty kick against Brazil for Norway. This was a friendly at Foxboro on September 12, 1998 between the US and Mexico's women's team that the US won 9-0 although he wasn't the ref but rather was there for some kind of award. I shouted out to him as he walked by "اسی چاکریم!" but he either didn't hear me or chose not to respond. https://www.mlssoccer.com/post/2019/...-builder-award Esfandiar "Esse" Baharmast, a former referee, player, coach and current instructor who has been involved in more than a dozen World Cup tournaments and Olympic Games, has been named the 2020 winner of U.S. Soccer's prestigious Werner Fricker Builder Award.
