09/15/2004: "Hyvää Suomi!"


Repeat after me, Suomi! Suomi! Suomi!
Canada won the World Cup of ice Hockey last night beating the Finns by 3-2. The Finns will feel disappointed because in truth they could have won the game but for a couple of soft goals. Although the Canadians looked the better team (and were playing at home I might add) the Finns were able to match them but just couldn't get the goals needed. Still, the Finns can leave with their heads held high.

was larking about on ATW -David said he likes funny names - the discussion of Fox Hunting. Does Fox Lox/Goose Loose mean anything to you ?
Too young I suspect...

Love the Furey Version of the Fox chase , and Finbar uses the "Madradin Ruad" in his into on the album I have ...I was asking if playing tunes like this and Foxy Lady by Jimi Hendrix would be illegal wink

Incidentally ... on this submission form and On Slugger
the Characters @ and " have changed places on my keyboard ... is this someting to worry me ?

ps ...where are the google ads that make you money ? I don't see any here!

Fox Lox/Goose Loose - can't say I remember that one. What's it from, nursery rhyme?

Have the characters changed in anything else? MS Word for example?
Sounds like your PC has switched your keyboard layout. It happens to me once in a blue moon, the layout switches from Finnish to American or something. Easy enough to switch back.

On WindowsXP, Start Menu >> Control Panel >> Regional & Language options >> Languages Tab, under "Text services & input languages" click "Details" and it should show you what Keyboard you are using.
On other windows systems it is pretty much the same, I think.

p.s. The Google ads are on the main site.

" Yay! Fixed @ Regional & Language options !"

*bling* a little light went on in my head when you mentioned chicken licken.

Ads: might be worth while getting people to click the Google ads on Slugger. Every click is worth 1-2 cents or more.
