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 / What do Poles really think about cats? [436]

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

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! [9]

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! [9]

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.

Life / Pączki Day--do Dunkin Donuts or Krispy Kreme count? [39]

The church always sell the Polish donuts at their bake sale for $1.00 each. Don't know the name of the shop, where the donuts are made. I believe they might be located on Imperial Hwy.

The Polish church in Yorba Linda , has their Polish-style donuts especially ordered for festivals, from a local donut shop. The shop owners are Asian. The donuts actually taste quite good.

Non Polish cats can be evil too. My neighbor's serial killer kitty once dumped a decapitated pigeon on my lawn. Ewww!

Wow, chocolate Polish beer! That's outrageous. Sounds like a refreshing drink to help beat the summer heat:)

This spoiled-rotten Polish kitty seems to be well taken care of. Noticed he or she in a Polish bookstore window in Warsaw.

USA, Canada / Polish people in LA / California [28]

Orange County has many nice areas; especially the coastal sections. Irvine is a good choice in terms of safety issues. There's also a Polish church nearby in Yorba Linda.

USA, Canada / Your favorite USA kiełbasa? [37]

Kasia brand products are pretty good. They are sold in many deli's. Most food markets sell both Farmer John & Hillshire brand kielbasa. They're not bad; when fresh, homemade kielbasa isn't available.
