Finnish sense of humor

[Zelja]

Strangely enough I got the Soccer humour right away. But I'm German...

I think maybe if they used Manchester United instead of the German national team it may have been more obvious as they get undeserved penalties for them all the time. Unless of course you are a Man U supporter then they don't get enough...

I worked in a coal, gas and oil power generating station and brought some clean burning coal home and put it in my fire place. It didn't take much to get a super hot fire. The place was build in 1903 , one of the first powerhouses in the country. The place was like a working museum.
