Finnish to English anyone?

Group,

I have an article written about Chief AJ from an obscure Finnish magazine. Based on what I can tell it is a re-telling of the world record shoot and some other information about John. This is random, I know, but can anyone here read and translate Finnish into English? I can figure out how to insert their characters for individual word translation, however, doing this for a five-page article is extremely tedious. Also, because I do not understand their sentence structure it doesn't really make sense. I can get an idea of what's being said but it would help me tremendously if someone could just read the thing! Worth a shot.

Thanks

Jay do you want Chuck's wife to give him a long distance call on the Tucker Telephone? A Finnish mail order bride would "finnish" Chuck....

Yeah....I married a good woman who puts up with my eccentricities and collecting. She has her limits though!

Being from AR, I found this interesting regarding your "Tucker Telephone" comment.
