Four Crosses

T Minus 92

I had four crosses today. Four decisions to make, although realistically for me three choices were really one.

Unhappy in Iran

This group of young Iranians were arrested for the “crime” of recording a Tehran version of the song “Happy” by Pharrell Williams, like many others across the world. Whatever you think of the song (I personally like it), there’s no crime here, just young video makers having a bit of fun. It is sad that this resulted in arrests, apparently it was “vulgar” and “hurt public chastity”, I think it is quite sweet. If you agree why not share.BBC report
