Why Kandou?

Kandou means "BEEHIVE"...

I may have mentioned why I have called blog Kandou. A few decades (two, actually, or even more) ago, I saw a movie called "A Man Without A Star". It was a western spaghetti movie, starring Kirk Douglas.

It was about a man who had no destination. Whatever destiny would bring for him, he would welcome! His life, as a gun slinger, was spent drinking, gambling and some casual contract cowboy work! he did fall in love, but that didn't last long either! But...life goes on, right?

Now, when I was in my early twenties, I saw an Iranian movie called "Kandou". It was almost exactly the same character! A man, with no plans for his life...goes where destiny takes him! Of course the story lines were quite different!

When I was a kid, I always loved the idea and growing old, so when some asks me who I am, or what I do, I can answer: I am A Man Without A Star!!

Now I guess I can...
