There are two things I don't change.

Socks.

Do you know, I don't think I actually own a pair of matching socks. I mean obviously I do, but I never wear them like that, I just pick 2 random socks out of the drawer and wear them If they match, I change them.

Background to my post:

I come from Finnish Lapland, above the Arctic Circle, where our ancestors followed their reindeer herd all around the mountains, all around the year, earlier in so called Lapp's sledge pulled by a reindeer, later in snowmobile. The work was hard and they carried with them as little as possible, often having same clothes on 24/7 until they could shortly visit home.

According to an old saying, there are two things a Lapp does not want to change: Midnight Sun in the summer and Northern Light in the winter.

I was studying and archiving some photos, and stumbled upon this pic of a Lapp in a traditional national costume:

Attachment 84867

A moment later i saw that pic Dennis posted and started to laugh aloud remembering my father's joke about Aslak (typical Lapp name) who could let you to sleep with his wife but not allow you even to be close to his heard leader reindeer, never changing clothes or socks.

Yeah, I know. Off topic. Sorry.

And this is a picture or Kari........



Looking for the pub or ice cream parlor.

Dennis, where's that picture taken?

EDIT: Just noticed the name of the pic, kari24.gif. Thanks; the thread is called How old are you, so I assume you mean naming that pic so, that I'm 24!

If I am in the wrong thread it's your fault as I am following you.
I went to Bing search for Images of Lapp Reindeer and saw this picture and named it kari24 so I could find it to send to you.
We both are a bunch of dummies today!
