Zoro who?

"Zohreh pronunciation" for not so dummies:
Z as 'ss' in "dessert"
o as 'oh' in "oh my God"
h as 'wh' in "who?"
r as 'rh" in "Rhodolite"
eh as 'e' in "resume"

If it is still difficult for you to pronounce my name, please feel free to call me Z as 'z' in "Zzyzx".


PS1. Zohreh is the Persian word for the planet/goddess Venus.

Man and Animal

If animals and combinational circuits did not lack historical memory, they were men and sequential circuits.
"myself"

PS2. "Man and Animal" is also a Sadeq Hedayat's book

Where the sea and the sky get together...


.. is top of the world.

This illusterates why Sadeq killed himself...


In life there are certain sores that, like a canker, gnaw at the soul in solitude and diminish it.
در زندگی زخمهایی است که که مثل خوره روح آدم را آهسته در انزوا میخورد.

"The blind owl", Sadeq Hedayat

I have mental and social problems, what about you?


I like this picture so much (taken from my bedroom's window).


PS1. Tonight, a doctor on TV said people capable of enjoying a view after a natural disaster have either mental or social problems (He was discussing some Youtube videos taken from recent fire storms in California).

PS2. The darkness in the picture is due to the smoke and ashes after the fire.

PS3. I still can't look at this picture and help myself adoring its beauty.

PS4. If I could upload the picture in higher resolution, you could better check your mental health (click on the photo for a better resolution).

PS5. Between you and me, the air is not this bad in LA.

PS6. This post was originally posted somewhere else months ago.

your discretion advised!


Recently I have a feeling of getting addicted to a certain type of music which I consider it as Rated 25+ (at least). I am not denying my age here, but I guess spending too much time on this type of music might have bad effects on my mind in long term (1).

for examples (25+):

(1) I meant in short long term, otherwise in long long term eventually we all will get old.

To see or not to see ...

In God we Trust .. because our moms tell us not to trust people.

In God we Trust .. because there is no other way! if you dare, next time ask her/him(2) for cash, too.

Nowadays, Americans do not trust in God as they used to.. I blame credit cards!



(1) Arabic version of "I trust in God"

(2) I've followed alphabetical order not to violate genders equal rights! I like Farsi for not being sexist.

Getting started...


When you try to use Zzyzx, the last (1) and strangest English word you have ever heard, as your blog name, you'll soon find out you are not the first person with the same idea.
That's why I had to use "Zzyzx Way" instead of "Zzyzx" or "Zzyzx Road".


Notes:

  • Unless otherwise mentioned, everything on this blog belongs to me!
  • Hereafter, not to waste words, I'll put a reference to online resources if needed.
  • If my English is closer to Ali G than Shakespeare, be aware that English is my second language and don't blame me for my bad taste!

(1) in the lexicographical order.
