  I thought you could get your hands chopped off for wearing makeup in Iran. Or does that only apply to men?

  Let's hope that the women photographed aren't stoned to death for allowing their images to end up on a western web-site.

  I think we've established that a little Farsi is allowed, just as long as there's some English to 'cushion' it.

  In the top photo, where are their veils? Where are their burkahs? What is the woman on the left doing, putting on lipstick? I see an ankle. I'm glad I wasn't there, I don't know if I could have contained myself. Where are Iran's sex police when you need them? How can you run a totalitarian theocracy when things like this are allowed to happen in public unpunished?

  MAII 31, I think the ankle has a sock on it, you pervert. I questioned all this stuff and Hugh said I was takling about the wrong country. I should have been talking about Saudi Arabia and its propensity for chopping off body parts. I'm off to Iran tomorrow to search for uncovered ankles. I'm a bit of a leg man.
