Love / Polish girls hard in relationships [156]
i'd say people, not just girls.
Polish girls do seem to be a tad bit more emotional. If they only learned to generate positive vibes and energy. They seem to thrive off of negativity, I just don't get it.

USA, Canada / Can Polish citizens with US greencard travel to Canada? [63]
yup, the latest i found was that you need a green card and you polish passport to re-enter usa. you can definitely just enter canada with a polish passport or just enter with your g-card.

USA, Canada / How to get Drivers license in IL without social security? [96]
how is that the problem of legal americans? ILLEGAL means just that. those who hold that status shouldn't be here... it's that simple.. if you want to be here and have all the same advantages a resident has, you better fill out the correct paperwork otherwise i see no point in letting them stay here. i am all for deportation.

interesting, for sure.
Aha, in Silesia it's most commonly z jajkiem. Pepper is up to the adder of it. Here, the sausage is cooked like in zosia's example.

Food / Borscht - Zurek / Bialy barszcz recipe [153]
in selesia it must be.. not other places necessarily. good stuff none the less. i've never had it with egg but always with the white kielbasa and potatoes.
see above. i've never seen or heard of this. same goes for baking it. normally, raw kielbasa goes in maybe the last 20-30min of cooking the soup.
seems that's only kielbasa water at this point. hmm how did the borscht become?
It is eaten with eggs and lots of pepper.

You see, the system would be very slow and non responsive if the bank kept a year of data on each and every customer...it's just a simple business practice - everywhere.

So I'm going shopping tomorrow.

they are a midwestern usa bank but one could probably use them from abroad. i really don't ever need to go in. i use my visa/atm/check card for everything. i pay all my bills through their website an have my pay directly deposited.
no, don't do that. transform your cash into precious metals and then bury those somewhere. :D

Advice: Take everything out your bank and put it under your floorboards.

USA, Canada / Sending packages from US to PL, cheapest alternative? [36]
ups is more expensive then usps. i thought usps was more then reasonable on a small package; down right cheap, really. i'll be sending one here in the next week or two and will know for sure but that's what it was a couple of years back anyway.

these look more like hashbrowns then placki ziemniaczane though. placki are made from finely ground potatoes while the other is made of shredded (larger) pieces.
PD has been cooking again. :) This time placki ziemniaczane. :) They were delicious (even if I do say so myself ;) It's probably not traditional ingrediants but close enough. :)
