Boo for the Arctic Circle over prolonged periods of time.

No offense, but compared to what I know about the length of Finland, your destination cannot be that far away, especially not by air... Wait a minute... Here:

Not like it would matter much, but your dear home country is not that huge (yet)!

[lockx]

isn't that between two airports?? not the distance of the country?

[Kataja76]

What I calculated should be close to the distance our dear Wålf-kun is about to travel, and that is what I was thinking about.

The length of whole Norway would be closer to 1700 km, metered by car even over 2000 km, because the mountainous country itself and its roads are far from straight:

we can't expect pedantry from everybody, can we? Else Kataja would have little to do

Thanks for checking back in, wålf! Pop in whenever you get a chance, please. We'd love to hear from you

And that conscription thread might fly in SSF. Tis a possibility. Give it a go

EDIT: Heh heh, I wanted to check my reference as usual, and it turned out that A Tribe Called Quest used to sound pretty much like Hinarei and me on AnimeB, even more so than I would have thought myself. Especially Phife's last quoted line, transferred to a message board context, made me smile. Well, you judge:

Q-Tip: You on point Phife?
Phife: All the time Tip
Q: You on point Phife?
P: All the time Tip
Q: You on point Phife?
P: All the time Tip
Q: Well then grab the microphone and let your words rip

(...)

Phife: You on point Tip?
Q-Tip: All the time Phife
P: You on point Tip?
Q: Yeah, all the time Phife
P: You on point Tip?
Q: Yo, all the time Phife
P: So play the resurrector and give the dead some life
