Arctic Circle Finland: Suomi Faction JackedUp Nation


Yes, finally back in the land of cross country skiing. After an uneventful trip I was collected by the Finnish Branch of the Jacked Up Nation. Their actual identities are withheld to protect them and their families. Currently at the Arctic Circle for a few days of indoctrination then shall be transferred to Muonio for action.
Guess what the heck this is?
Ok.
It is a Bottle of Scotch that was purchased for my old Coach that brought me from a city slicker from New York to a World Class Athlete in under 24 months two decades ago.
It also is a sign that things are starting to go the "Jacked Up Way" .
It was purchased at the duty free shop at JFK Airport, NY transported across the pond. When transferring to a domestic flight i Finland the screeners said that I had to toss this because could not bring on plane even though I did not leave a sterile area?? Who Figures? THey said that the EU does not trust the TSA??
SO instead of tossing this nasty elixir I went out of the sterile area intoo Helsinki Vantaa and checked it as is although the Gate Attended wrapped it in the Garbage bag you see and we put it on the belt.
It was expected to arrive smashed in Rovaniemi. BUt it came off the belt intact. Who would've figured that???
