Damn right, I am!!<br /><br />You and I could go from village to village, town to town, college campus to college campus, and just engage with each other and the citizens of Iran, and bring our people closer together in the understanding that we all want to enjoy a world that is peaceful and prosperous.<br /><br />In our private meetings you and I could make fun of our nations’ allies.  I mean yes, we, the U.S., are aligned with the bland Brits and the milquetoast French, but your two biggest allies are led by a human freak show who rides shirtless on a horse, and a coward of man who gasses his own people!!<br /><br />Don’t tell me that there isn't any common ground there, my friend.  Hell, I’m sure, if we put our heads together that we could come up with a joke that goes like this…<br /><br />A Brit, a Frenchman, a Russian, and a Syrian walk into a bar, and the bartender says…<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjf57k60CrLUI2NNXuU6Sd7KA5BxJMprfWh69_LmLL3r7_iAcuuq1e_Vx4dS33NCfy0QGLdHwl313hejF_wurZwoSa5RKBU_Ex_OITcMpLTb6-FK_nB80tLJuULDOgRRrkJrBN3LfNijkDV/s1600/President+of+Iran+Hassan+Rouhani.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="223" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjf57k60CrLUI2NNXuU6Sd7KA5BxJMprfWh69_LmLL3r7_iAcuuq1e_Vx4dS33NCfy0QGLdHwl313hejF_wurZwoSa5RKBU_Ex_OITcMpLTb6-FK_nB80tLJuULDOgRRrkJrBN3LfNijkDV/s400/President+of+Iran+Hassan+Rouhani.jpg" width="400" /></a><i>“Jesus Christ, how I long for a Canadian customer, at least they leave with a smile, and leave me with a tip.”</i><br /><br />So…There you have it President Rouhani.  I am more than willing to leave my comfortable digs here in Ohio and help you to shoulder the wheel-barrow of peace and understanding that this garden of life so desperately needs.<br /><br />If you are interested, let me know. You can always simply tweet me, because I follow you, and with all due respect, please allow me to say…<br /><br />I dig your tweets.<br /><br /><i>Cheers!!</i><br /><i>Matt-Man</i><br /><br /><span style="color: blue;"><a href="mailto:mattmaniws@ymail.com">mattmaniws@ymail.com</a></span><br /><a href="https://twitter.com/MattMan_IWS" target="_blank"><span style="color: blue;">@mattman_iws</span></a><br /><a href="https://www.facebook.com/mattmaniws" target="_blank"><span style="color: blue;">My Facebook Page</span></a><br /><br /></div>
