Aznavour At Aragats

[Z'areh]

I wonder what would be accomplished by circling a mountain except to advertise the futility of such "demonstration"

 

I think it's stupid and shows that we are running out of good ideas to promote ourselves.

 

I wonder who will be holding Aznavour's pinkey, and to what tune they will be dancing (if they all hear the tune in the first place)

 

God, looking down Aragats help us!

vava, apparently for May 28 celebraqtions they are inviting Guiness Book of world records to record this "spectacle" which I find it to be very lame.

“Aravot” also says the local chief prosecutor, meanwhile, is busy enlisting participants for the May 28 circle dance around Armenia’s Mount Aragats which is planned by Prosecutor-General Aghvan Hovsepian. They pledged to sign up 1,700 local residents. The paper adds that the local prosecutors have also been instructed to buy about 60 sheep and up to 40 liters of homemade vodka
