an anti-christ, messiah, or something out of the realm of typical political solutions, before I get too excited.
D**n! You must lead a pretty dull life! :-)

Looks like Iran is about ready to boil over..., 'bout time.
According to "60 Minutes" last night, a company called National Iranian Television (NITV) has a lot to do with that. They are beaming a satellite signal into Iran and stirring the pot. It appears they are getting no gov't funding and are close to bankruptcy. They give news, entertainment, and make fun of the ayatollahs and apparently are quite popular in Iran. The Iranian gov't has tried to jam them but has failed. The gov't has been trying to spot and confiscate satellite dishes.

Hopefully the Iranians will throw off their theocracy. I know I would hate to live under one.
