Ahmadinejad's Chef Stinks Up The Joint


According to Page Six:
Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad doesn't need nuclear weapons -- his food stinks so bad, he's practically cleared out the Hilton Manhattan East. The finicky fascist brought his own personal chef to prepare his meals while he's in town for the UN General Assembly, a source told The Post's Helen Freund. Unfortunately, his meals "make the whole hotel stink like hell," said the source. The Hilton did not return a call for comment.

Guests confirm (off-the-record) that it smells like a combination of Basmati rice, weapons-grade plutonium, polyester, and Just For Men hair dye (Shade: "Midnight Black").

The Revolution Will Be Twatted


One of the most interesting aspects of the Iranian election protests is the role that Twitter is playing. Even though internet and cell phone access have been curtailed by the Iranian government, protesters have been able to continue sharing news and information via tweeting. Twitter has been so important that the U.S. State Department asked the company to reschedule a network maintenance shutdown so the protesters could continue communicating.

There is something you can do to help the protesters. If you have a Twitter account, change your settings so that your location is TEHRAN and your time zone is GMT +3.30. The Iranian government is now monitoring Iranian tweets, but if we all become 'Iranians' it becomes much harder for security forces to figure out what's what.
