In the tradition of selecting an "Iranian of the Year", I would like to start a "Iranian.comer" of the year, in our little community here.

Just do what Anonymouse suggested with his piece:

You can nominate as many people as you want but choose one and put him/her in the subject line of your comment. You don't need to give any reason for your selection. Just your candidates and your final ONE vote.

I'd like to nominate: JJ

Feel free to nominate anyone, even Honest Hassan!

   *              *               *               *                 *

 

Now that polls have closed, and we counted the vote, the Grand prize of, "Iranian.comer" of the year,a $50 payment, is awarded to:

Nazy Kaviani

by Anonymous4567 (not verified) on

As an iranian.com reader my vote goes to Nazy Kaviani; her "lost legend" about Afshin Mofid, the Iranian dancer in New York was one of the best I have ever read on Iranian.com.

I vote for Nazy Kaviani

by Nadias on

I want to thank her for her kindness and generosity through out this web-site for all Iranians and non-Iranians.

I am so greatful that she took the time to translate " The Story of Khosrow and Shirin" for those of us, who do not know Farsi.

GBR

by Anonymously Yours (not verified) on

Guys, guys, guys! You have forgotten the unsung hero of the "new look iranian.com." Because of censorship rules I cannot spell out his/her name here and would stick to its censor-friendly abbreviation: GBR.

This person, single-handedly, and literally, brought down the house. He or she was responsible for the issue of censorship to be seriously debated for the first time on this site. GBR was responsible for bringing out the worst of reactions out of otherwise civilized writers as Roozbeh Shirazi. GBR also forced out the most virulent of verbiage out of such writers as Bruce Bahmani (//iranian.com/main/blog/david-et/and-winner) which in turn made David ET to declare GBR as the "Winner" long before this poll (//iranian.com/main/node/10133). GBR has my vote as the Great Blower of Raspberries :)

IRANdokht

I vote for Jahanshah Javid

by IRANdokht on

For building one of the best online gathering places. For his devotion to Iran and Iranians and the hard work it must take to manage such a great and addictive site. 

I used to believe that nothing is free...   I never imagined being in such great company and learning so much from other Iranians and Iran-lovers could be as easy as registering with one website.

JJ made it possible for us

I am grateful to David ET for encouraging me to join  the blogs section  too

...Aah ay dyaareh door,

ay sarzameeneh koodakeeyeh man

khorsheedeh sardeh maghreb bar man haraam baad

taa aaftaabeh tost,...dar aafaageh baavaram...

    *                    *                   *

JJ...for bringing us all together.

  No matter what our political affiliation is, be it Mossadeghi nationalist, socialist, melli-mazhabi, monarchist, or anything else, we all have one thing in common: Our hearts beat for Iran. We want to see our land free. And proud.

   If we get to get along on this site, maybe we all can get along in a free and proud Iran, some day.

I live for that day...

ramintork

1. JJ for his saintly patience and judgement of Soloman!

by ramintork on

2. Darius Kadivar for interesting cultural articles and his youtube links like the Family Guy and chicken fight, but politics I beg to differ with!

3. Siamack Salari for his otherwise private moments with his kid and the chat about God

4. Hajiagha for his wise cracks and for making himself the "Prodigal Son" of the Iranian online community

5. Mahmoud for his Fardin, Forouzan "Roon Abgooshti" inspired Cartoons

6. Hoder for "AS roo naraftan" and trying to reinvent yet miserably failing to be a new Dr Shariati but no one buying it type articles!

7. Our poets Shaer, setareh sabety, just to name a few

8. Our Art, and photo contributors, some of us have not visited Iran for years, and you bring it closer.

9. Peace makers, and humanatarians

10. Our trolls who heat up an argument usually about faith and anything that might be related to the regime and their cultural, or political position


Honest Hassan

Me???

by Honest Hassan on

Mr./Ms. LA:

 I AM that innocent child!

 My name is Honest Hassan :-)

And you are supposed to nominate "Iranian.COMER" of the year, here, not "Iranian" of the year, if that's what you meant.(That would be next door)

All kidding aside...

Thanks .

Very touching.

:-)

My iranian of the year...

by LA (not verified) on

- An innocent child who goes to sleep hungry.
- An innocent child who's deprived of basic necessity in life...
- An innocent defenseless child who's terrified of his drug abuse parents.
- An innocence child who solely wishes to be loved and care for.
-And the same child who grows up to be a fighter for injustice.

Majid

Jeesh daram and Bayramali

by Majid on

For their clever sense of humor.

Other than that, there are many lovely hamvatans here and it's much easier to pin point the ones who I would NOT nominate! but...It's Now Rooz season.

P.S. have not seen Jeesh Daram here lately, after he was criticized for one of his postings! hope he's doing fine.

Cheers
