How to learn to speak Finnish

[giza]

Just work in a nuclear plant in Denmark:



Though trying to ask someone for directions in Finland would still be a bit awkward...

Ha ha, that's foreign humor alright. Put that in the funny pages and maybe our major metropolitan dailies wouldn't be bleeding money.

And the Puritans, moralists and right-wingers would go apeshit. Which would be fun to watch. :}

Uhm. Wow. That's all I can say, is wow.'And I mean, WOW.

This is from the comic Wulffmorgenthaler (http://www.wulffmorgenthaler.com/). They're the same crazies who created Dolph The Fascist Hippo (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dolph), among other things.

I'm going to Helsinki in September. Now I'm very afraid.

Speaking of traveling, will we see you in Pittsburgh next weekend?

[usagiguy.livejournal.com]

Unfortunately, no. I have been traveling much too much this year, and deadlines are looming high above me ready to crash.

Have a good time, though. Hopefully I'll be there next year, probably with Hannah.

I love Wulffmorgenthaler; there’s a strip on the back of the newspaper that my dorm-kitchen subscribes to, and we always have fun pointing it out to each other. If they’re about doctors/hospitals/medicine, I usually cut them out and put them on my door, to the delight of visitors. ;)

One comment, though: Denmark does not have any nuclear power plants. Had a public vote, decided against any form of nuclear production in the country; even the small experimental reactor in Risø was shut down. So we’re a windmill country, really, which unfortunately isn't half as fun. ;)

If Risø doesn't want their nuclear reactor, can I have it?

I always have wanted to learn finnish some day...

Heh. At least is not Welsh, the language for people allergic to vowels :}

Decided not to brew anything for AC this year, maybe Fur Fright. But I'm down for a pint or two sometime next weekend if you want.

Anytime in the evening (say, after 6 PM), sure!
