    Just how do you explain the difference between finished and complete?

    Marry the right woman and you're complete.

    Marry the wrong woman and you're finished.

    Mess around after you're married and your completely finished!

    You haven't finished working on your chainsaw until you've replaced the starter flywheel engagement arms. Once you have, its complete.

    What would be awesome is if someone translated finished to Finnish.

    Finished in Finnish = päättynyt
    Complete in Finnish = täydellinen

    Ps do we have any Finns who could confirm this?

    The U.P. is loaded with 'em!
    Reminds me of the joke, "what is black and yellow and full of fins?" A school bus from the township.
