How would you compliment her on her nice ass?

You can say "Masz ładną dupcię" or "Masz ładny tyłeczek". Go with the latter.

Genealogy / Trying to retrace my family (Misiak) [9]

maybe my dates are off.......

not necessarily, even if he came before 1900 records would show that he came from Austria

but wouldn't point of entry still be through Boston? of does Ellis Island maintain immigrants from all ports?

Sorry, I don't know

And for your info, there are ~275 Misiak's in Krakow region

but it says Austrian

That is correct, because at that time south of Poland (Galicja/Galicia, including Krakow) was under Austrian jurisdiction.
