Meaty Goodness!

My turn, now that FM has gone.

How did you find CUF?

Funny thing - I had been off of CG for a while because I'd been busy, and then found the caterpillar had become a butterfly (maybe a moth?), albeit through an eventful metamorphasis.

So where did "nikuman" come from?

Well, when dim sum and shredded pork love each other very much....

Actually, it's a nickname of mine from my college days.

What would you be if you weren't a lawyer?

Professor of medieval Japanese literature. I may become that yet.

What is your church standing?

I'm not entirely sure, to be truthful, but my home teacher recently told me that I am "not exactly the most orthodox Mormon." I take that to mean TR holder but absolutely fine squabbling over the last bits of rum in the tiramisu my wife and I are sharing.

How come you aren't funny anymore?

Beats me. Fat comic thing?

And what of Wuap's question?

Well, he better not try to outweird me. I get stranger things than him free with my breakfast cereal.

I say go for it. There were a few students that were 40 or older in my graduate program. One had already retired from being a HS teacher and was living the dream, so to speak. If you retire in your 40s you could easily knock out a phd in time to have an entirely full career and retire with a second pension before you die.

You didn't mention your grill skills though.

Thanks for responding. I was beginning to feel a bit bad for the meat bun.

The meat bun is secure in his place on the fringes.

nikuman, you jerkface, here's your question. Answer it if you dare......I'm trying not to phone these in, but four in one day is quite taxing:


Sattar Khan, ستارخان, was a key figure in the Iranian Constitutional Revolution, galvanizing the people of Tabriz to withstand two sieges in defense of the Iranian Constitution of 1906. His leadership of the Azerbaijani secton of the Iranian constitutionalist forces in Tehran as they resisted the abolishment of the Constitution championed by Mohammad Ali Shah Qajar. This resistance has made him a hero of the Iranian people (completely unlike the assholes in charge of the place these days). His valiant defense of the will of the people preserved the Constitution (for a season).

However, Khan, like many a caudillo/warlord, had a major falling out with the interim constitutionalist government over disarming and disbanding his forces. In 1910, he refused to obey the government's order to disarm, believing that groups like his militia were Iran's best hope against future attempts by oil-hungry foreign governments to install another tyrant puppet like Mohammad Ali Qajar.

After a violent confrontation at Atabek Park in Tehran, Yeprem Khan, Sattar Khan's former comrade and now the police chief of Tehran, disarmed Sattar Khan's forces. Sattar Khan was wounded during the altercation. Some claim that Sattar Khan died in 1914 from the wounds he sustained at Atabek Park in 1910. Is that possible? What do you think?

Wise way of upgrading your history Ram .

I'm not sure what you mean, or who Ram is, but Sattar Khan's legacy should burn in the hearts of your people. You need militias that protect the Constitution, not the power of the mullahs.

It's only taken me the better part of the week to respond....

The answer is as easy as the question: of course it's possible. I can't speak to the probability. I suppose it depends on whether or not Sattar had a physique like, say, Ricardo Montalban, circa 1982 perhaps (no, the chest was not prothetic!), in which case I would suspect that his conditioning would be such that he could survive the initial shock of a bullet, say, but died of its effects years later. Make that even more likely if he were a genetically engineered superhuman, but his eponymous exiled brother hailed from much later in the 20th century, so I think that's a possibility we can discard safely.

You had about 20 more mins before I declared you dead to me for not answering. But now, we shall be great friends.

Wonderful! Too close for comfort, but wonderful!
