Jack be linguistic! That´s right, you actually chopped the word correctly!
Tuli-fire
komento-command
ja-s

Do you have a missing Enigma on you or are you just plain smart?

Toni--Have you ever heard of Marku Uusipaavalniemi? He skipped the Finnish curling team in the last Winter Olympics. The announcers had plenty of trouble with that name. During one of the games, someone in the stands started chanting: Give me a 'U'. Give me a 'U'. Give me an 'S', and so on, spelling his entire name #:-) . I thought that was just a funny story worth sharing.

Jack, thanks is "kiitos" in Finnish. And our favourite curse is "perkele!", as introduced by so many Finnish javelin throwers!

Folgore...you know what my wife just said?
She said "..he´s gotta be Canadian if he watches curling because nobody else does!"
Just keep in mind she spent a whole year in the US and she was brainwashed the American way! It makes this kind of statement easier to put in proportions...

LOL.

Toni

I´ll have to show some progress with the dio real soon to give you guys some other things to think about! #:-)

LOL Toni . I just had to add to the stereotype, eh? Of course, in this case, it's probably true........
