It must hurt

No, I wasn`t hurt. :):):):) I just grabbed at the opportunity to address sb so. This time it fell on you. :):):):)

Tommy rot!!!

Prove it! :):):):)

Sikorski went to UK, because he won the Olympics in English. Radek learned English from books and private lessons

He obviously neglected the pronunciation aspect.

Ooops!

and it's not thread worthy.

I decide what is thread worthy! :):):)

I already told you, don`t think too much, you are wasting your time on worthless issues. :):):)

Nobody wants to read a thread about poles that speak english that have spent decades in english speaking countries

Sorry, but your supposition sucks! :):):)

I can guarantee you the OP wanted to display Poles who have learned English, not people that grew up in Australia or the UK

Of course, he fekking didn`t. It happens I know the OP very well and am aware of his intentions. :):):):):)

this is what i'm talking about and it's a waste to even mention Rostowski.

A little request: why don`t you just fekk off, troll? :):):):):):):):)

Nothing. Just a funny remark - unless you graduate from the English Language department at a Polish/British/American university, you have no chance to learn to speak perfect language.

Life / Polish songs with religious motifs [23]

I heard this song on the radio today and loved it instantly:

Old Good Marriage -Green Angels from Bieszczady Mountains

I heard this song on a pilgrimage once and was thrilled by the melody. We had been walking all day, exhausted and hungry, and it started raining like hell, so the guide priest initiated the song and it fekking worked! It breathed new life into us.

Lord is My Shepherd:



The Lord is my shepherd I shall not want.
[2]He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters
[3]He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake
[4]Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.

[5]Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemes; thou annointest my headwith oil; my cup runneth over
[6] Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life. and I will dwell in the house of The Lord forever.

Funny but its arrangement and choir remind me of Jewish songs that I heard in New York.

Fuzz, don`t be silly. Count Sikorsky in, of course. The fact he stayed so long in English speaking countries doesn`t matter. Quite the opposite, it makes his case even more educational for us. Do you mean what I know, Mr Expert? :):):):)

i made it a point to write, "and Sikorski doesn't count for obvious reasons" thinking it was actually worth my time. apparently not.

What you think may be sometimes worthless. Therefore, don`t think too much on clear threads. :):):):)

The OP`s intention for this thread`s content was as the title says. Can you read it again?

Is Sikorski a Pole? Yes. Does he speak English? Yes.
So?

Here is Sikorski, current Foreign Minister (PO)

You are so cruel.

Why don`t you appreciate the fact that a Polish farmer speaks English? :):):):)

Is this guy Polish? I guess he's big on straws too.

Nope. He is Heinz from Austria. He vowed to follow the tradition of the last Austrian Emperor, Franz Jozef.

So when did the girls start to be alter children?

A few years ago. Now there are 1000.
Altar boys reached 300.000.

But slowly, slowly....... girls will take over. Just like with everything. :):):):)

=isthatu2]and at far less risk when left alone with old priests..................

You pervert! :):):):):)

Sorry, mods. It is perfectly on topic! :):):):)

=magpie]Oops. OK.... 76% of Polish construction industry workers living in the UK have a moustache.

Really? :):):) When I look around, I have an impression that (in)famous Polish moustache is disappearing. I know why. Since I shaved clean under the nose a few years ago, other males have followed my example.

Moustached me:

I suppose he perfectly realises such an event will happen sooner or later. It is only the matter of time.

The number of altar girls is growing. They are more dutiful and ambitious than boys.

Wow! When will we see the first mass service run by a priestess? I hope I will live to see it. :):):):)

UK, Ireland / Can I buy Papierówki apples in the UK? [11]

Hi, my wife is Polish and remembers these apples from her youth.

I do too. My fav apples when a kid. I used to roam orchards and pick them from trees during vacations in southern Poland.

No more traditional papierówki in Krakow today. Pity.

Life / Rate Poland (Life Quality / Culture and People / Food): 1-10! [232]

which is why tourists visit the 7's, 8's, 9's and 10's instead.

Fair enough. I don`t mind. I even prefer it like that.:):):)

Compare the beaches:

Poland:

Mediteranean:

I have nothing against the chilly waters of the Baltic Sea.

However, I do mind being touched by sweaty fat bodies of other beach goers. :):):):)

My rating is still 8/10.

Life / Rate Poland (Life Quality / Culture and People / Food): 1-10! [232]

=Seanus]Bullfrog, I can tell you that many Poles rate their food 9/10 or even 10/10.

Exactly. Our country pizzas, kaszanka tortillas and winter sprat sushi are the best in the world.
Who doesn`t understand it, is deficient in the brain to body weight ratio.

Life / Mishmash facts about Poland and Poles [182]

Did you know there are about 29.000 priests in Poland? (24.000 public and 5000 monks)

Their average earnings depend on the location:

Countryside priest - about 2000-3000 PLN. Urban priest - 3000-5000.

The main income of a Polish priest is the sacramental fellowship ( an offering made by the faithful ) . But not only that , they are also offering for the celebration of Mass , " jura stolae " and " thirteen " .

In Poland, according to the Institute of Statistics of the Catholic Church in 2009 there were a total of 34 405 233 Catholics (including in the Dioceses : Bydgoszcz - 581 040, Toruń - 581 111, Wloclawek - 767 511, Gniezno - 648 511 and Pelplin - 730 000 ) , who are concentrated in the 10 157 parishes ( in the Diocese of Bydgoszcz - 148 , Toruń - 194 , Wloclawek - 232, Gniezno - 266 and Pelplin - 288) , as well as 967 other pastoral centers .

In 2009, we also had 128 bishops , 24 priests, 455 assigned to the diocese ( in the diocese : Bydgoszcz - 290 , Toruń - 411, Wloclawek - 523, Gniezno - and Pelplin 543 - 566) , 5687 religious priests , diocesan seminarians 3595 1125 alumni religious , 1149 brothers and sisters 21338 .
