'Now you can sit on a chair, because I do so'

It's quite a while that Khamanei, or the Supreme Leader as is usually called, hold his important public meetings in a new place. Previously he used to have his guests in a small hall in his own house. They all used to sit on the floor, with no chair.

Actually I've been to that room once. Strangely enough, I was there twice. First time with Hadi Mofatteh, my teacher and friend in Nikan high-school; and second time when he pronounced the formula of marriage (Aqed) for my ex-wife, Pegah, and me. What a stupid person I used to be when I got out of that wierd religious high school. (It's a long story that I may write about it later. I have never talked about it even in my Persian blog.)

But recently he hosts them in a big, white room--with chairs, not only for himself, but for all guests. Seems as if he is suffering from some kind of joint problem--the little step under his feet can show that. So since the doctors has prevented him from sitting on the floor, all his guests have to use chairs as well.

Sitting on chair to many religious and traditional people in Iran is sort of a Western thing. Ayatalollah Khomeni never had his guests on chair in his tiny room, so was Khamanei until recently.

I just wonder what other changes can aging of the leaders bring to Iran.

I don't like that I like them, casino gambling but that's the way it is. I understand poker their usefulness. Often, a formalised poker room exercise helps me to crack a web casino block of some kind, and often online poker affords a new way to see something. online casino It's a way of playing with the slot machine process of creation - if one gambling online lets it serve that purpose.

I just found these sites talking about penis enlargement. I don't know how penis enlargement works but according to some of them penis pills are working. Others give you the option to use a penis enlarger to get a big penis. With so many guys looking for penis enlargement methods, penis enlargement pills are a sure method to get a big penis. Magna Rx looks like the penis pills you want to use to get a fast penis enlargement. Also vimax pills are working great.

You are wrong, Ayatollah Khomeini (the leader of the revolution in 1979) rarely sat on the floor after the revolution. He had a favourite couch where he always sat, covering his legs with a light sheet thing, and his guests sat on a simple chair before him. I clearly remember Edward Shwardnatze (former USSR foreign minister) in this very position talking to Khomeini.
