In this area we have some German clubs but I never heard anything about Polish yet. I could imagine, there are some of them out there, maybe they just don't advertise enough.

Seriously? You're familiar with them? Are they like the Polish version of Celtic Thunder?

Apparently there is more of an active Polish-American community here than I knew...

Toronto on the 20th if you want to visit a real foreign land!

I like it. I can't explain why. I'd go see them. But there is no way I could get any of my friends to go along with me.

Two words: hunting season :s

Sure, they were, and I guess still are, the legendary ensemble of folk dancers and singers. Costumes are amazing. You may want to check them out: girls are very pretty :)

Geese jerky.

Is it greasy? And would Philly Poles enjoy it?

No, it's lean. And quite good actually, and I'm not big fan of jerky in general.

And would Philly Poles enjoy it?

Is that a suggestion I should go and feed Mazowsze members with my hubby's jerky? ;)

Yes, either that or we stay on topic :-) After all, we wouldn't want to stain their lovely costumes, would we?

Well in this modern area when hip hop tops and rock rolls and DJ's spirr the floor you can't do much about it!

Plebs... How annoying they should never had the ability to vote!!!
No etiquette, no manners, not much patriotism either! Barbarians...

Rough week at ye ole pracy.

Remember that praca is good but not important.

Although, I'm sure some people in Philly had rougher...

What have you heard?

P.S. That would go well with that bottle from the fridge ;) Na zdrowie!!

Praca is important in more ways than just putting dough in the bank. Important to the psyche, especially when you haven't got some.

What have you heard?

Consumption of Philly Cheese Steak is way down with the recession.

If you wanna die young - be my guest :)

Die young because of stress or depression? Rather take the stress with the hope I can at least make it to retirement without capping myself.

Those in Philly have a similar choice. But there is solace in music and dance. I am sure they will have a wonderful time at Mazowsze.

Did I mention, they perform in Hamilton Ontario as well? Close enough for ZDaruis to go!

They will fire you as soon as they don't need you so why put your heart in it? It's just ... praca.

Montreal sucks big time. Nobody comes here.

I am sure they will have a wonderful time at Mazowsze.

I hope trener will write us a report.
