A friend just sent these to me. The last one is funny. Speaking of Finland, you might get a kick out of "The Hydraulic Press Channel" on YouTube. He just installed a new press - 300 tons.

All funny but especially the last, my wife is Finnish.
Good ones, Jerry, I really laughed at the first one.

Us too!
When I was young, Moby Dick was just a guppy.
What did I do during the "turn of the century" party? Which one!
At least "going shopping" doesn't mean to see what's walking around the yard.
In the middle 60's I went to college in northern MN. One of my part-time jobs was working for a gas station that had the AAA contract. In the winter time when the temperature was stuck at the -20F territory I spent most of my working hours starting cars. Cars all had carburetors in those days, and when it was cold most of the engines were flooded when I was called in. Generally, I'd have to take off the air cleaner and hold the choke open, hook up the jumper cables and crank the engine. Quite often, the engine would backfire through the carb once or twice before it started. I went through winter quarter at college with my eyebrows singed off.

Great story. Any chance that the college was located in International Falls?
