USA, Canada / Polish Tutor in California [23]

Since you live in Chino, you should contact Pope John Paul ll
Polish Center, in Yorba Linda CA.

I'm almost certain they'd be able to provide, quite a few Polish tutor referrals

Classifieds / Monster X tour in Poland [4]

There was a thread on PF some time ago. I recall someone mentioning, supposedly Grave Digger, was to participate in the Monster Truck rally in Poland.

Genealogy / Do I look Polish? (my picture) [375]

There's some beautiful Polish people on that website. Can't understand why some of the females had to be nude.

Life / Large Auto Parts Stores in Warsaw (like NAPA, Autozone, PepBoys) [3]

Pep Boys (Manny, Moe & Jack)
Seems to be Polish-American's favorite auto parts store. I remember spending many hours there with my dad, when I was a kid.

They're great for auto repairs too, because the parts are available on site.

Polish cider sounds perfect right now. Maybe it could help ease the pain, of my sprained toe a bit 😢

Life / What do Poles really think about cats? [354]

There was once a thread that mentioned, Polish kitties only have an average life span of 2 short years. Maybe it's because of some of the crap they kill & eat?

Genealogy / Do I look Polish? (my picture) [375]

Been a while since I've sported a pic on PF

Besides being blonde & blue, I think my strongest Polish features are my forehead & slant to my eyes

Language / Do English-speakers sound funny when we speak Polish? [49]

I don't even attempt to ask for items by their Polish name any more, when I visit the Polish churches in California. I'm tired of always getting corrected on my Polish pronunciation!

Food / Poland's best cheap beers? [72]

I buy Leźajsk Polish beer at the Polish Deli, located in Orange CA. It's around $3.00 per bottle. Not too expensive IMO,

I'm assuming the price must be very reasonable in Poland?

News / World's oldest man is Polish! [5]

How sad, the Polish man who was supposedly the world's oldest man, has passed away.

He didn't hold his title for a long period of time.

News / World's oldest man is Polish! [5]

The world's oldest man is 111. He was born in Poland & lives in New York.

Must be something about Polish longevity. My eldest relative is 95 & more active than many younger people.

Alexander Imich, an 111-year-old Polish immigrant and Soviet gulag survivor who lives in Manhattan, became the world's oldest living man last month when the previous record-holder, Arturo Licata, died just days before his 112th birthday.

Travel / List your dog friendly pubs in Poland - if any :( [8]

You could try contacting a Pet Hotel. Perhaps they could offer some suggestions for you.

In Palm Springs, CA there are many pet-friendly restaurants. They're absolutely great! My dog loves going there; especially since they usually have a special pet menu too:)
