USA, Canada / How Poles and other Slavs celebrate and participate in USA everyday life. Chicago as Polish province? [47]

with it being the states do they have to go to private property,ie their church , to do this legally?

..This depends on local ordinances.. they might have needed a permit and even if it's illegal I doubt it's enforced much. That's some remote Cali town (away from the coast, tourism). Still a lot of ranchers, produce farmers people like that.. they just do whatever the hell usually.

,is firing at a church symbolic of something,waking the baby jesus up or something...

I don't think they were literally firing at the church. The same thing is done in Mexico on Christmas I believe.

Life / Hollywood Lyrics, why a Polish girl? ('A Polish girl in America') [37]

Americans openly funding terrorist attacks on the UK though,well done

No.. wasn't dodging, I have a life and in my country "whitey" as you ironically refer to us has to work. I can see how an English white guy would relate to the African American though.. you have very similar work ethics.

To your point: A very small portion of Irish American funneled gun money to Sinn Fein / IRA..70s - 90s however it mostly outlawed now. I'm sure it still goes on. However, take it up with Greater Boston.. the rest of us could give a feck. Esp. Polish Americans?? You want to blow each other up over 13 counties or whatever .. go for it.

..It does seem that an awful lot of terrorists are escaping your people's usually exacting eyes here of late and if I was you b@stards I'd peak in on the mosques a little more often.

you still havent been to the UK

What for? To shake hand with the next shoe bomber you bucketheads are sending over here?

Thanks a million for that.

fighting the 1st SS panzer armee in the Bulge daddy O?

Well, sorry.. old boy. Since you're the history professor and everything. Daddy O[ is a phrase from the 50's. A little after the Bulge, etc., I'm afraid.

Uhh.. Limey is still well in circulation over here, Nigel. So shove your little history lesson.

LIMEY! It's not really meant to offensive.. it just sounds funny.. so we use it.

I know it makes limeys mad.. so I use it whenever I can around them. Heeelarious.

complete knobs?

Tut.. tut: Just because you don't agree with my assessment doesn't make me a knob.

All the stuff I listed was true and based on true experiences while on the Continent.

This Polish girl Jane Krakowski is 42 and looks like she's 32.

Forgot about Janey.. yes she does look great.

have you ever actually been to the UK

No.. if I want sh.tty weather.. and food I'd head out there I guess. Everybody I knows goes to limeyland .. once.. and to not return. I lived on the "Continent" for a year, bucko. I've traveled quite a bit thank you.

Always have problems withyour people.. nobody else. Luckily there's usually a few guys from Oz around and we let you fools have it. Haha.. it's the best. Nobody hates limeys like Australians. And nobody hate Americans like Limeys .. except maybe in the Middle East.. but parts of the UK look like ME North.

Last summer clowns in Manchester were burning our flag.. just sayin'. I don't care but shove that "special relationship" mumbo jumbo.

News / Die Welt-Poland and Germany are the economic driving force of Europe [239]

how would the banks survive if everyone was like me?

.. because, on average, most aren't like and have to pay interest or an annual fee for some cards. But yeah, credit cards can be a great tool and can save you a bundle if you're wise on how you use them.

USA, Canada / Where on the net can I buy Polish language books/novels/math in the US? [26]

Born in Poland before the WW2 (now this is Bialorus), after the war moved to Poland, in 1952 as a 17 year old young pupil put to the prison for underground political activity, than thanks to Stalin's death released from the prison 2.5 years later.

Sounds like an incredible life. I'd like to read that book myself.

UK, Ireland / What's the rule on 'the UK' but just 'GB'? [60]

UK has the Robin. But i'm sure that the national bird was the Wren.

Don't you have a lot of skylarks? That's an interesting bird.

UK, Ireland / What's the rule on 'the UK' but just 'GB'? [60]

What kind of wildlife did GB have in the old days? Squirrels, pretty much like today probably. Well maybe some skinny wolves running around.. a codfish? Yeah, the ugly Bulldog was made by old limey so be it. Lol.

Jk.. Bulldogs are the coolest. Too bad they cost a mint to buy one or I would keep one in my apartment.

Love / Why are Polish women so sexy ? [390]

in Poland you either get really pretty girls, or really manly girls, but not so many fat ones.

Yeah that is true, some of the Polish girls have the manly square jaw thing working. Like Popeye in a wig.

USA, Canada / CULTURE SHOCK! (of my Polish finance who visited the US) [210]

Life is too short no matter whre you live, to one person it's a dump, to another paradise. It all depends how you look at it.

I agree with this. Sometimes "dumps" have a lot of character and a cool vibe. Plus there's usually less uptight rules, snobs etc.

what is it with Poles and living in cold, dank places? feels like home?

Yeah probably.. A lot of those places can be pretty beautiful though with distinct changes in seasons. I kind of like the winter personally. Also, I don't know if the rust belt is completely gone either.. it's showing signs of life here of late.
