    Sincerely Tom Lakenen

    Didn’t have to even say this guy is a Yooper, where else do you find such fantastically Finnish names?

        What!? I know and love “you betcha” (probably from Fargo, sorry) and now I need to know how to say this too.

        Update: I was reading it as the word “up,” but it’s U.P. Off to a good start in my research so far.

          Hurray for cultural exchange, you’ll be munching pasties and hanging in the sauna in no time!

            What’s the proper sauna attire in the U.P.? My favorite is Russia: they wear pointy wool hats and not much else.
