The Rubaiyat of Omar Kayyam under subject matter - fo it was Omar Khayyam the Poet, who entered into a pact with Hassan Sabbah - the Old Man in the Mountain - tather the pact of the three - a Public Relations Man, an Assassin, and the Candidate, let us say. This beautiful poem was translated by Edward FitzGerald - real name Purcell, but he took the name of the grandfather for the coat of arms (which was Coat of Arms of St. Patrick and my Father)...... So a loaf of bread, a jug of wine, and Joshua2 - and then when he sips the poison from within the cup (my mother's side also clamed descent from a few Borgias)....ah maybe Joshua2 Will find himself a "Stranger in Paradise" better keep the motor running, Joshua. In I Kings in the bible you will find the phrase Laugh, Drink and be Merry for tomorrow, well we all die anyway. As the man said to the martyers who will die for the Palestinians - they will leave a living burning hell but it is like opening a door and walking into another room - Paradise - the same Paradise to which Omar refers - so speaking of roses ... O'Saba (No relation to Hassan Sabbah - the Head Man, the Old Man in Mountain who linked up to the Old Knights Templar, to which my father claimed direct descent - and we can prove our pedigrees.....how about you Joshua 2 - give my love and kisses to whats his name, Moshe the Masher was it - a Jack the Ripper with a blunt weapon - sure that guy is not an Arab? Regardless, beautiful work this Rubaiyat - by one of the three - and I say, these Suicide Bombers sure have he same teacher - maybe still living high in an Eagles Nest somewhere and not like what he sees beneath his feet? Powerful hypnotic drugs being used? Maybe some - hypnotic drug....one who causes the lips of those who are asleep to speak, and to kill - in order to be taken to Paradise? Beats the hell what they have now, right Joshua. My love and kisses to your ADL friend.s O'Sabbah
