The Deal...
گفتم خراج مصر طلب می کند لبت
گفتا درین معامله کمتر زیان کنند
-- حافظ
"Tis Egypt's tribute thy lips require for fee"
"In such transaction the less the loss shall be."

Sorry for the off-topic comment, but happy birthday!
Please post a post so that people such as I can leave their good wishes, at the least!
Of course, as would be expected, I am a bit late. But I suspect that you would have reason for suspicion had I have been on time. :D
Hi!
Thanks. Well probably you are right, I should post more relevant posts; occasion-relevant that is, otherwise one can argue what is relevant and what is irrelevant after all. And when you come to this point, sometimes you find it easier just not to post anything, rather than going through all this relevant-irrelevant nonsense.
touché!
