Finally. (Dec 17 2003 08:58 GMT) - I'm freeee!!! Unfortunately, I can't shake this nagging feeling that I still have a lot to do. Actually, I do have a couple of SC stuff to do, but it's not worth the nagging feeling at all. It must be withdrawal symptoms. School really has a nasty hold on me. |

کروبی و مايکل مور (Dec 17 2003 08:54 GMT) - Mehdi Karrubi is such a hypocrite liar. He should have no place in the next parliament.
