Weird E-Card of the Day: Armenia Edition

Weird E-Card of the Day: Armenia Edition

Jaunted
Jan 2 2007

Armenia is gunning for its spot on the tourist map by marketing its
religious attractions. The country’s current slogan is "Noah’s Route,
Your Route," a nod to the belief that Mount Ararat is the place where
Noah’s Ark landed. And we thought Serj Tankian from System of a Down
was the people’s Armenian. How pedestrian.

They’ve got a pretty spiffy website going over there to compliment
the new campaign. It includes an interactive map, useful basic
information to get you started, and the obligatory e-card section. We
know Armenia’s probably not working with Sweden’s budget, but they
could probably benefit from a more cohesive collection. Beautiful
scenery? Check. Goat portrait? Check. Random, unidentified toddlers?
Check…and kind of creepy.

Emil Lazarian: “I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
