If I remember correctly, the Persian word for "kite" is baadbaadak, which translates roughly to "little wind inside a wind."

Gift-wrapping station and mud-room.

You can tell they're full of crap when they cite four factors courts use to determine fair use, but don't name a single one. Classic "just enough law to scare 'em" tactic.

Too bad, he had the right blend of officiousness and menace to play crime lords. Relatedly, have you noticed that we replaced Germans with Scandinavians when we need someone to play an Eastern European?
