Unluckily I used finnish e-banking from USA in the 80s, not many cultures with that experience.
Try to trade some Nokia here, trade against yourself with a regular WAP phone or the 9210

Btw, that mythic perpetum mobily thingy that mythic me did the R&D for, many mythic moons ago.
Up to late 1700 the (cloning) combination of a cow and a little inbuilt bull, milk and calves just kind
of automatically, no hazzle with the external bull, guaranteed fertility, later more industrial versions
the mill just milling grain all year round.

Hmm, nothing sacred, just hard work and common sense

Funny translation, funnier than the original, but the reason SMS messages are so useful, as are
colorful lids and some regular understanding of organic design and style.
"O thou ancient Wainamoinen,
Famous and eternal singer,
Tell me of thy journey northward,
Of thy wanderings in Lapland,
Of thy dismal journey homeward."
Spake the minstrel, Wainamoinen:
"I have much to tell thee, brother,
Listen to my wondrous story:
In the Northland lives a virgin,
In a village there, a maiden,
That will not accept a lover,
That a hero's hand refuses,
That a wizard's heart disdaineth;
All of Northland sings her praises,
Sings her worth and magic beauty,
Fairest maiden of Pohyola,
Daughter of the earth and ocean.
From her temples beams the moonlight,
From her breast, the gleam of sunshine,
From her forehead shines the rainbow,
On her neck, the seven starlets,
And the Great Bear from her shoulder.
"Ilmarinen, worthy brother,
Thou the only skilful blacksmith,
Go and see her wondrous beauty,
See her gold and silver garments,
See her robed in finest raiment,
See her sitting on the rainbow,
Walking on the clouds of purple.
Forge for her the magic Sampo,
Forge the lid in many colors, (got it??)
Thy reward shall be the virgin,
Thou shalt win this bride of beauty;
Go and bring the lovely maiden
To thy home in Kalevala."
Spake the brother, Ilmarinen:.....

v. Archaic A past tense of speak.
Minor other help, the english "magician" simple means somebody who get things done,
"blacksmith" has to do with burning a lot of coal with lousy ventilation, "hero" means a regular
smart individual, additionally with a sense of PR, "maid" is more like "meadow", not servant,
"virgin" is a total historical misunderstanding, "minstrel" is simple somebody who actually knows
things and attempts to teach others.. |
