The summers can be astoundingly beautiful and warm. (Mosquitos didn't seem to be interested in me much, either). My hosts in the first week did speak neither German nor English, but their son (who was only there in the evenings) did, and a neighbor of them (neighbor still meant a few kilometers away, I think... Finland is big and empty, as once was sung in the ultimate lovesong). Very interesting days...
Oh, and I found a solution for my first personal computer "problem" there - A way to create the Game of Life which I learned about from a Piers Anthony ( IIRC) book...

| Interesting. Maybe I should book some music classes for him to attend.
Moving to other subject. Don't you just hate it when a season of some series end in a major cliffhanger. I was watching SG Atlantis yeasterday and hit the end of season 1. Now I want to see how it figures out, but I don't have enough money to buy the next season. Bummer. Now I'm upset! |

Imagine, you're driving along the road. Nothing ever exists there for miles. At one inter-section, a second car gets onto the road. It might be following you for an eternity before any of you have the chance to leave the road!
Now, what only needs to happen is some reindeer deciding that standing on the road is quite comfortable and reasonable, and you'd believe you got into an ambush!

I actually "played it" for a while on graph paper, but you reach the borders to quickly, and have no choice but to find a way to simulate it on a computer...

The night is moonless and somewhere a wolf howls. Yeah. That exact thing has happened. I was getting a ride home from a friend and that is what happened. Except it was a moose rather than a deer, and it just decided that standing there was perfectly fine. Especially with this weird thing with bright lights and horrible noice standing few meters from it. I think it was 15 minutes before the moose finally moved away  . |
