So that Americans do not run out of alcohol. 🙈

Of course Renata is, as usual, simply lying. Crown Royal are not shutting down whisky production in Canada.

Crown Royal will continue to be mashed, distilled, and aged in Canada, just as it has been since 1939.

They're actually closing one of the bottling plants that bottles Crown Royal, because they've finally realised there's no point shipping lots of heavy and fragile glass from Canada to the USA when they can just ship bulk containers and then bottle in the USA. And they just happen to have quite a bit of surplus bottling capacity in the USA right now, because global demand for US whisky is down as consumers around the world react to the USA slapping tariffs on so many things.

USA, Canada / Polish Tutors in Dallas, TX? [24]

Why don't you use online Polish language tutors?

That would most probably be cheaper and open up a far wider choice of teachers than will be available in Dallas.

USA, Canada / Polish Tutors in Dallas, TX? [24]

Good job forum! It looks like another potential poster was chased off!

I did report one of Rich's posts, and that one was fairly promptly binned. But the rest of the off-topic posts were left up and more were made and have stayed up.

I'll be visiting small towns to meet some extended family.

Make sure you download the PKP (Polish state-owned railway company) app. It's really good for getting around. And it's also available in English (just in case your lessons don't go as well as you hoped).

USA, Canada / Polish Tutors in Dallas, TX? [24]

Ideally, I'm looking for in-person lessons (though I'd be open to online if there's a great option).

I think you'd do better to go for online lessons, as that opens up a much wider choice of teachers than in person in Dallas.
This place in Warsaw has an excellent reputation (but certainly isn't the cheapest option): iko.com.pl
And the Sopot School of Polish has been operating for 35 years, so they must be doing something right. I know a few people who've been there and liked it (although most were there in the 1990s): ssp.edu.pl

No illegals in Poland

LOL! There are at least dozens of thousands of illegal immigrants in Poland! And that isn't even counting the foreign criminals who are here legally.

No idea what your last comment was about other than a vehicle to hurl an insult. Try harder

It's ironic that he's trying to insult anybody by claiming they know nothing about money but at the same time has driven three businesses into the last three years. I'd have thought that steaks, NY deli foods and ice hockey would all do quite well in Poland, as some Poles are so interested in all things American, but he still managed to lose other people's money with all three!

Off-Topic / What is a woman? [732]

Misogynists abound on this forum. It's one reason why there are so few women here.

As do racists and homophobes, which is a large part of why there are so few people here these days.

Simple - ban buses and there will be no more violence on buses. Charlie Kirk logic !

Wouldn't Kirk's 'logic' be give everybody* their own bus and let Jesus decide who gets to go where they want?

* Obviously that does not include women, non-white people, gay men and all other people that Kirk saw as Untermenschen.

What is it meant to achieve

Compliance with international law? It is funny how some people are very much supporters of "law and order" until a law says something they don't like.

I ask again, how is this model sustainable?

It probably isn't, but it's the one that the people of Britain voted for, so now they can live with it.

This is true - Secretary of Defense doesn't want to meet soldiers with beards.

Not being forced to meet that drunken rapist would be a pretty good reason for growing a beard.

Zohran could be the first right on left victim of violence.

No, he really couldn't. Not after that Trump supporter assassinated Melissa Hortman and her husband. But why start telling the truth at this point in your life?

Saw an amazing statistic earlier today that loss making companies have performed better on US stock markets than profitable ones for the last 6 months

Yes, but the vast majority of that is from AI firms.

it's completely normal to gather photographers and lower the US flag for the best picture a couple of minutes after an attempted assassination.

Attempted? The people who were supposed to die at Butler Farm Show Grounds did, although one of them was referred to in the plans as "member of the audience" and the other one thought he'd get away.

At the same time when crime rose because fathers were no longer in the house helping to raise children.

But even children raised in happy two-parent homes can turn to a life of crime, as one particular four-time felon demonstrates.

This really starts to smell if you start sniffing.

And don't forget the photographers being ushered into the right place to take the 'iconic' photos, as shown in this video: instagram.com/reel/DMOVZE1R9pK/?hl=en

keeping citizens safe while not allowing illegal immigration.

Yes, citizens need to be kept safe from criminals, especially foreign criminals, for example the American four-time felon who went to Opole and took lots of money but didn't keep many promises. Can anybody remind me what Kirk said about deporting foreign criminals?

It's yet another example of North Nigeria losing power: a few decades ago those orcs would have raped her before murdering her but now they lack the power to do that.
