Yippee - 6h5min daylight - besides it is sunny, so walking the dog was real enjoyment. Temp about -5C = 24F


Introducing B Virtanen

Mr Virtanen is office clerk who has ****ty superior, ****ty head of department, big boss does not care - at home wife is more or less alike. Nobody seems to show any respect for him. One female co-worker shows occasional compassion.


screen-shot-2019-01-12-at-13.14.57.jpg


First Screen : Head of department watching Virtanen
Second screen : Virtanen, would a better paid more interesting job interest you ? " "OH YES!"
Third screen : "No wonder."

Screen one : "Fingerpori Sports Association has taken action to prevent flu contamination.
Screen two : The wrestlers have been told absolutely not shake hands before match.






And finally one, that plays with words having multiple meanings - the word "arkki" in Finnish means a.o. sheet of paper and Noahs Ark - this is not to insult anybodys religious feelings - so if any of you find this insulting - please tell and I remove it.


screen-shot-2019-01-11-at-8.53.18.jpg


Screen one : Noah!!
Screen two : You must make an ark, that's big enough for all animals of the world ! Got it!
Screen three: After half year: This has place for all, if you use small writing.

I laughed. Thank you. I'm OK with Noah. Indeed the Bible itself has several instances where a knowledge of the original language reveals similar word play.

Introducing Murikka - Superior of B Virtanen - he is totally incapable of achieving nothing, but he bullies Virtanen and is friend of head of department.


screen-shot-2019-01-14-at-9.38.20.jpg


Screen one - head of department is busy
Screen two - Murikka is busy
Screen three - let's try again... head of department and Murikka are busy.

Since I suppose that my friend Al is working at office - he is online only on working hours - where would he put him in B Virtanen world?

But there the resemblance to Mr. Virtanen ends, because Al really works for the weekends when he can see his girlfriend, who bears an uncanny resemblance to China's last Empress, Wanrong:

You Finnish people appear to be a bit twisted, with your sense of humor.

I admire that in a person.

Keep 'em coming, Nuuska!

Yeah, and I think we, (as a people) have become a bit untwisted.
