Ah yes, the good old days. How many times did you drop your cards,
just as you were handing them to the operator? Did you number them so
they could be resorted? Hmmm, I didn't either. How far down the line

to submit
Thanks, Rick!

I've always thought Finland is one of the coolest places on earth.
Disproportionate number of great hockey players (one can see why) and
incredible race car drivers (all that winter rallying?).
Beautiful scenery, too.
