News / Poland- Visa Waiver Program [55]

That is very inspiring. I think the Americans see Polish citizens like these puppies, begging for milk, and they're just having fun showing who's in control. But the biggest problem is not the Polish citizens coming here, but the mexicans who illegally cross the borders. Some are really lazy, they bring drugs with them and form gangs. It is sad that they don't allow decent, hard working Polish citizens in, putting them in the same category as the illegal mexicans sworming the country.

Another problem especially here in Wisconsin is the influx of Laotian people. They get goverment support, free housing, they don't have to work, have 20 kids, form gangs, deal with drugs, guns and eat our pets.

And the goverment supports them.
No. Life is not fair.

UK, Ireland / Stop the exploitation of Polish workers in the UK [101]

In America if you work over 8 hours a day or over 40 hours a week you get paid overtime. Because so many workers belong to a Union, the union protects their rights. But, illegal aliens who come to America are used to their maximum potential , because they do a good job, work harder and can pay them less and don't have to file income taxes on them.

At $5.00/hr it's hard to make a living in the US, but to an illegal alien it's a lot of money.

Life / Are Polish People Racist? [1037]

I agree with guest10.

There are still many black people in America, who hate whities, because over 100 years ago they were their slaves.
I guess it's human nature to blame others for their misfortunes.There's a quote:
"Life is 10% what happens to you, and 90% what you do about it"

News / Poland- Visa Waiver Program [55]

I'm asking because I'm working on it myself to get my BF over.
But,
I wasn't the one to send him the invitation, only my mother, because they will put the two and two together... Know what I mean?

I'm hoping that in a week or two I will know more about this. Because if this doesn't work, I might ask you some questions on how you're doing it.???????

OK????

missingfromheaven

Thank you for the information. I recently suffered a terrible car accident in which I almost died. But I heard a voice in me head: "you will be OK. Everything will be all right"

Do you think it was an angel or a spirit telling me that? Because I wasn't afraid at all, even though it happened at 3:00AM, on a dark, rural road, nobody around and I'm laying there paralyzed, bleeding not able to move my legs.

Was that an angel???

I agree!
My fiance just returned from a job in Sweden doing construction work. Him and three other guys were working 7 days a week for 12 hours a day. He says I was the only thing that kept him going.

Poor guy, lost weight.

Life / Haunted Homes in Poland [173]

Good site. I checked it out.
But here's a true story:

One time my friends were at a cemetery at night. (because they wanted some excitement in their lives, I guess). This one dude got mad at his mother and went to sit on a grave. In the meantime, the mother see's him walking in front of their car. She calls his name and he SLOWLY turns his head around and keeps walking. Suddenly they hear the dude running and screaming from the cemetary yelling:

"Let's get out of here! Fast"
After they got a safe distance away, they asked him why wouldn't he stop when they called his name? He said he was never there. He was sitting the whole time on the grave. They asked him why was he so scared?

he said:
"I got really scared because When I was sitting there on the grave, I heard a voice saying: "I'll get her for you".

This really happened.

They say also if you hear a knocking, somebody will die.
My dog and my horse died when I heard knockings, but I'm sure it was just a coincidence.

Hey AnninEngland
I have a question for you.There is a cemetery I go to with my friends when we have nothing better to do. We sit there in the dark and wait for something to scare us. It is very old and there are Indian Mounds near by. There are children burried there. One time my friends saw a little girl standing next to another friend. Later when we got home there were small handprints all over the car.

While sitting there at night we see lights. A lot of white lights. And one day we saw a blue light appear from nowhere. It was not moving and we started to get scared. Then we heard wild dogs and sound of running horses.

That was it! We tore out of there as fast as we could, but then we heard something dragging on the bottom of our vehicle.

Do spirits follow you home and bring bad luck? The light we saw was a very pretty blue.I heard it's a good spirit. Right?

We respect the cemetery and don't disturb anybody but we like to get scared for entertainment. (childish behaviour, I know).
I have more questions later.

I have been messing around with the QUIJA BOARD with my friends. At first it was a lot of fun when that thing moves around and starts spelling words out, but then bad things started to happen. We went to a cemetery and asked to speak with someone. He told us his name and we asked him how he died. But there were too many souls that wanted to communicate and the thing wouln't stop moving. We got freaked out.

I don't touch that thing anymore. It is evil.

Travel / 1st time in Poland [78]

One thing doesn't make sense. Why do fat people always drink Diet Sodas and are still fat, while skinny people drink the regular stuff and don't get fat?

Yes, some people in America are trying to eat fat-free, salt-free, sugar-free organic foods. But they don't taste as good. They omit the salt or some other ingredient and charge more for it.

I read somewhere that Europeans eat a lot of fattening foods, but their metabolic systems are different and they don't gain weight as much. I don't know how much truth there is in this. In France they drink wine with their meals and yet they have such delicious pastry.

Each country is different.

Life / Haunted Homes in Poland [173]

I lived in a very old house in Poland. My bedroom was upstairs and I would always sleep with my dog or cat. Every so often the dog would look in the corner of the ceiling and move his eyes to the other corner. I thought it was a spider or something. But then when I had the cat up there, they would both do it.

I found out later, that there was a woman killed during the war in that house. My brother had a room next to mine and he had woken up several times in the middle of the night screaming, that he saw a body floating. He didn't see the head, only the body.

Animals can sense entities, which often do appear in the corners of the ceiling.
Has anyone else experienced strange incidences?

Law / Polish citizenship when married to polish and living in poland [17]

Yes. That's true what Wujek says. You better listen to him. You have to live in Poland for 5 years otherwise you'll have trouble.

The site: polskiinternet.com/english/info/polishcitizen.html might help you out a little.

Now Wujek, don't get mad at me, and I know you will, but I've noticed that everytime you spell the word coupple, you use two p's. But that's OK. No big deal. I understand what you're saying.

Fisz, Fisz, Fisz.
Believe it or not, I do have a clue about it. I have been taken American Tourists To Poland as a tour guide and I have been observing their reactions to Polish food. Oh yes, they have tried Polish foods. And they liked it. But after a day or two, they can't take it anymore. It's like a smoking or drinking habit. You have to have your "fix". Once you're hooked on burgers and fries it's hard to let it go.

Bit that's how they eat in America from their earliest years. They don't cook like they do in Poland - everything from scratch, instead they buy prepared meals from a box or a can. All you do is add water and plop it in the microwave. And that's OK too, beacause in America you have to work hard and can't always find the time to prepare a meal.

Every country is different. Americans eat their burgers and fries. Polish have pierogi and bigos. There is nothing wrong with that.

Life / Polish Parents Canada; they still treat me like a child. [5]

Australia Bound. This is your life!! You have to make your own decissions in life. If others keep telling you what to do all your life, you will be like a vegetable. It it better to make your own decissions in life and fail than to let others do the thinking for you.

You do what your heart tells you to do. Stand strong. Do not let others make decissions for you! Even if they are your parents. That is the only way YOU will be happy. Your parents will adjust to it. Someday...

That's why there are so many fat, unhealthy Americans. All they eat are burgers, fries and sodas. And they wonder why so many heart attacks? They go to Europe, and the first thing they look for is a McDonald's. They can (maybe) survive one day eating European foods, but that's it. They need their burgers and fries.

I know an American couple who adopted two children from Poland. While in Poland, they of course couldn't stand eating healthy Polish foods. Where do you think they took the kids? Yes. McDonald's. And what do you think the kids did? They just looked at the burger and fries and pushed it all away.

It's the way you are brought up. In America there is a so called "mass media". Which means you do what everybody else does, otherwise, you're a freak. They don't know how to think outside the box.

Love / Do Polish guys have a different approach to dating than others guys? [50]

I myself never had sex before marriage and I'm proud of it. But that was my personal preference. I chose it that way.But I do not see anything wrong with doing it before marriage, if you know the person you're with is Mr. Right. And a lot has to do with your beliefs. I just dislike it when a person runs around with everybody they meet to satisfy their desire. That's where the spread of AIDS came from. But then again, if someone really has the urge to do it and can't find a woman, then they get a doll or enjoy the company of another man. It's a tough world, isn't it?
