Sound advice indeed. Is it a specialty of Finnish cuisine, then?

Usually American cuisine. Hot dogs and such nonsense. If you're vulnerable, eat something healthy instead.

Looked again... still don't see anything for a guy with an English Literature degree and a passion for the tablets. Seriously, I will gladly take help and guidance here; where could I, an enthusiastic generalist, fit in? I can hack a bit, talk a bit, write a bit...

Finnair lost my checked-in luggage somewhere between Paris and Helsinki.

O boy.

Good thing I carried on the essentials and one day's worth of clothes...

Also, I expect to meet with a Maemo project manager for supper Monday evening.

It's been a fun and exciting week in Helsinki (especially since my lost luggage found me) but tiring as well. One of the highlights was having supper at a nice Czech restaurant (Vltava Ravintola) with two Jaiku friends and the guy behind the maemo.org web page. Very sharp young man. I did not get to see ragnar or Quim on this trip but I'm sure they both want to choke me by now anyway.

Anyway, it's good to be heading home tomorrow but I really hope I get another chance to come back before year's end.

I have no idea why that would be. Certainly nothing you do here on the forums. You tease more, but in the end, you don't seem to tell us anything more than the other Nokians.

My sources indicate they're riddles, and whoever solves them has to privately give the solution. Quite a contest.
