BLOODY SEVEN | 3 Years ago...

One of the odds, I got four [bloody] sevens in a row, means 2^4 = 16 extra cards as fine! This is the time that you probably start to hate this game and call everybody "bitch", instead, I grabbed another can of beer and kept enjoying every seconds of being with my best friends; knowing that those moments are never gonna come back again. [Persian] Year 1385 , was a huge year for me, lo'oots of changes, lots of mysteries, lots of stories. Most of them are those kind that you wouldn't want to experience ever again! The parts which were obviously seen in my last year's blog posts. But I don't want to mention any of them, cuz besides I'm still in the side effects of many of those days, I think I'm gonna love this new year: 1386!

Thanks to my uncle who almost died, all of my relatives decided to go back to peace, just like my childhood days. The other thing that made this year special, was my being stuck in the house of my game-design student and for the first time, I was far from my family in the eve which frankly felt kind of good! But the bestest thing that I could possibly start a new year with, was talking to my one favorite person in the world over the phone in the last hour of the old year. And besides the good days of being with my relatives right ahead, I was supposed to host a bunch of my best friends in Shiraz during holidays.

This is the time that you probably start to hate this game and call everybody "bitch", instead, I grabbed another can of beer and kept enjoying every seconds of being with my best friends; knowing those moments are never gonna come back again.

Well, As long as I suck being a tour guide for my cousin's fiancé, I tried to not be one for my friends; I think that's why it became like playing a British song by a couple of Shirazi ears! Like the one with Paul and Marco (Brussel's Cousins), I thought it would be a good idea to hang out inside the house and play Bloody Seven, since a friend from the UK brought us a lovely pack of rain from London.

Maraal, David, Suzan (Dave's Sister), Roozbeh [aka Lord Sharlune], Anna and Sahar, were the guys who came and Niloofar was who didn't! Plus my always-ready-to-kick-my-ass sister and her fiancé Mehdi, Damon my pal, MNM and Hossein. Everyone seemed be bored with my playing by ear plans in a couple of days, until my sister showed up and made everyone  see the places that Shiraz was famous about (except Shirazi wine of course, not because my sister is religious, just cuz it's not a place!) Oh! I saw Persepolis for the second time in my life and the good thing about Persepolis was the competition that Me and Damon made to get on Anna's nerves, but we both amazingly lost! I had no idea when did she become such a sweetheart, but I think I know why!

Suzan (aka Sue) was new to me. With a strong, fast, really-hart-to-understand but lovely British accent and her unlimited magical power to continuous play of Bloody Seven; plus a very clever sense of humor, it didn't take much long for her to become one of my best friends. We sometimes checked some websites for the weather forecast and 15 British Marines/Sailors fate. I sort of understand them (The vice versa sort!) As I've been in custody of British embassy in Tehran for committing international crime! Shirazi weather was also a freak, from -6 in the night to like +38 in the noon! And WOW! I just remembered: My holiday presents: A SpongeBob pillow, A(n) [American] T-Shirt, couple of English candies, a box of nice chocolates and a lovely DVD! Okay! Let see some pix:

BABEL: Beautiful Redemption | 3 Years ago...

Prologue:
Yeah yeah, it was a pretty good movie, sort of like the international more-leftie version of Crash, and my favorite scene was when the American tourist in Morocco hears a glass smash noise from the side window of the tourist bus she was in, and a few seconds later, she realizes that she actually had been shot! Well, I really liked almost all of 2006 Oscar movies (Plus James Bond!). Please don't say movies are fictional, cause they're real; don't believe? So listen up:

The Story:
The day after I saw "BABEL", I had to wake up early and get ready to a business meeting; a very important one. So I dressed myself to teeth and packed up all of my stuff and asked

Unlike actors who wanna die on the stage or Marines who'd like to die on the battlefield, Computer designers / engineers, don't have a particular favorite place/circumstances to die in!

my family to give me a ride to the place of meeting. I was enjoying myself in the backseat of the car, without noticing my sister and my mom's permanent argue about the way to drive a car, cuz I was reading a favorite book; Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six, while listening to my Walkman's playing Joy William's Beautiful Redemption. And the moment John Clark realized that the terrorists were actually looking for an American diplomat who couldn't even get on the plain, that music track in my ear ended up and faded to silence and my family's loud talking started to turn up, and ... all of a sudden, I hared a very loud and sharp explosion sound, from the cracked rear window of the car with a small hole in the center of it - right beside me, and the feeling of getting sprayed with something on my neck, I was deaf except hearing an extensive horn in my head, I could see the panic faces of my mom and sister looking back to me and saying words.

 - "I was trying to assure them that I was okay, but underneath my shirt I felt rush of a warm liquid, like a shower of sweat , I touched my neck, and felt a hole where those red warm liquid was coming from... What the...? I... got... s.h..o...t..."

Should have done, Could have done... | 3 Years ago...

 - "Hello?! Reza? Is that you?"

It took about a second for me the get myself from a six-years-old kid who's messing around computer toys, to a twenty-four-years-old man who recognizes a couple of gals friends of him.

- "Hey...Yes; Hi!...How are you? lol! I should have seen you an hour ago, Cuz we were banned to enter the playground because we're bachelors! We could have claimed we're a family!"

And, that was the best subject I could come up with, but couldn't keep it up much long; in just a few minutes, they felt a bit uncomfortable and left. Apparently, I'm very good in acting like a person who's time is very valuable but he's kindly patient! Well, I was obviously not! Generally, in such cases you'd spend hours and hours, thinking about what you could have done and regretting about what you should have done. I finally stopped my mind on a good conclusion and made an statement about my character.
I start with some keywords: Microsoft® Windows® (and Microsoft® in general), US Army (and Unites States of America in general) and maybe Capitalism in general. If you know me even a bit, you'd say these keywords are the things that I like and/or I'm fan of. Okay, let's explain. Windows® is not the best OS in the world, meanwhile it's the most popular one. Besides its being the logo of capitalism and monopoly, it's very slow, pretty buggy and it's built-in browser (IE) sucks ass! As a professional Windows programmer, Web developer/designer and award-winning Windows based software/multimedia/game architect since 1996, I must say it's just caused by one reason: "Windows knows too much" . Yes, it simply knows too much. There are tens of thousands of functions and procedures containing millions of code lines, in order to predict any probable user/machine errors and respond in proper way. Sometimes, these insist on being the best, gets obsessive and sometimes it gets crazy.
