wha— what the hell is up with that?
Did they mean Purim? Which I guess is kind of Persian related….
Very odd.
I think, as a side note, that I’m going to have to steal your disclaimer to use on my own blog. I like it.

I’m glad you like the disclaimer, Jesse.
So I read on another blog that they probably meant an actual Iranian holiday called Nowruz. Which has all of one letter in common with Lag Ba’omer.
