B. Virtanen I apparently forgot one page from the consult saga. For miss Jantunen's name, here's some trivia. When we got to the point in Finland where people needed official surnames instead of the usual local identifiers, there was some work to invent unique (or uniqueish) surnames for families. Older families with existing Swedish surnames often translated their surname into Finnish, but for a lot of poorer folks the surname was just pulled out of thin air by taking some everyday noun and applying the ending "-nen" to the end. Thus we have names like Jokinen, Lahtinen, Järvinen (i.e. something like "Riversby, Baysby, Lakesby") which to a Finnish ear have a fairly distinct "generic" sound to them. For reasons I don't know "Juntunen" & "Jantunen" have become generic names for janitors/custodians, and I guess secretaries in this case. ANSU Another one I really like, dunno why.

Category III had up to 4.7% alcohol and was the strongest beer you could buy from grocery stores. Category IV above 4.7% was limited to Alko state monopoly stores to limit drunkness.

I like that the Tinkersons family being vegetarian is coming up again although I could've sworn they were just eating wings like a few weeks ago. Granted there are really good vegetarian wings out there but I don't know if I'd necessarily go to the parts of PA this comic takes place in IIRC to look for them.

I hope she burns down the house and then police investigate, notice a pattern of fires and arrest TJ. Then Bernice can either decide to admit she burned down the house or let TJ take the fall and go to prison for insurance fraud and attempted murder.
