It's not. It's recorded history. No need for archaeological digs. All in plain view black.. I mean blue on faded white. All it takes is a few years of American studies :) Or you can take shortcuts and read only what's recommended to you.


Of course I'm not!

Nothing to do with that. Truth is truth and that's all. Just like 2+2=4, even though I have no special preferences towards the number 4.


That may be. Especially that Americans couldn't sometimes discern between Germans (Deutsch) and Dutch :)

I advise caution anywhere near Hawaii. Especially if you are in a restaurant business.
Hawaians confuse food with cooks, so they eat cooks.

It all depends on the market. Now it's just so much cheaper for Canadians to shop in the US. Just a few years ago it was Americans who shopped in Canada. This comes and goes in cycles.

Btw. I used to live in the US. I left after 5 years and I'm happier in Canada. Yes, I did work in the US I moved out, but going back to the US to live there? No way Jose!


work? Yes.
Drink? Ask all those American kids who come to Canada for a booze because in states such as NY the're not old enough to do that.


Do you mean American 'made in China" goods are better than Canadian "made in China" goods? :))

Immigration laws on both sides of the border are similar, and it's not like a Canadian can just come to work and live in the US. Yes, they can under some conditions, but it's not so straighforward unless you qualify under one of the NAFTA regulations. Most don't.

Still, there is a relatively sizeable American population in Canada. From Vietnam war deserters to those who simply like it here better. Where I live, I have more American neighbors than Polish ones.

As for jokes, they are on both sides of the border. Canadians joke about Americans, and vice versa. At times the American position on Canada is actually quite aggravating. With some 20 million illegals in the US, most of whom entered the US through a gaping whole called US-Mexican border, quite a few voices sound the alarm about US-Canadian border.


With the support of majority of Americans for the Iraq invasion it is only natural that many outside the US generalized and considered Americans somewhere between aggressive and insane. On top of that, American elected a retard for their president not once, but twice. Now even most Americans know that was a mistake that most outside the US saw before it happened.

Actually, I worked in Buffalo at that time. Out of about 50 people I can't recall a single one of my American friends who voted for Dems.


Patty, what war on terror? C'mon, you seem like a reasonable lady.

Out of 19 alleged terrorists on 9/11, 17 were Saudis. All trained by alQaeda with their headquarters in Afghanistan and supported by the Afghan government. That is the same alQaeda lead by the same Bin Laden whom Saddam so disliked.

So given all those circumstances the braniancs in the US government decided to attack Iraq. Tha same Iraq where UN insectors said they found no WMD, which the forementioned US government braniacs understood to mean that Saddam in fact had WMDs.

Patrycja19, the invasion on Iraq never had anything to do with the so called war on terror. My cat was as much a thread to the US national security as Iraq was in the months leading to the irresponsible attack by the US forces.


Really? I thought it was clarified by the US government numerous times that there were not any WMDs in Iraq.

There is a difference between bad things happening and bad things being a result of a policy and orders. German soldiers have been always undoubtedly subordinate so they followed the Fuhrer's words:

"Kill without mercy every man, woman, and child of Polish extraction."

Life / What would it be like to live in Lomza? [60]

Canada is a big country. You don't need to go to Lomza to experience severe lack of amenities you are used too. Just drive North for a day or two ;)

At one time I knew lotsa people from Lomza. Many went to the US, made a good buck and returned to Poland to live better than some of the people they worked for in the US. Actually, I don't think there is a single family in Lomza whose member did not work in the US :)

Your mileage may vary, but in general the so called "amenities" are more than well know to the good people of Lomza. As for the clubs and such, dunno, gotta google it I guess.

It is, but there is a slight danger with the meaning of the word "cosmopolitan" . I'd rather use the term nouveau riche for this particular populace.

Wow! Then the majority of people with advanced degrees in the US are foreigners.
The total number of graduate degree holder in the US is over 16 million (2000). That is roughly 0.05333.. % of the population. So, according to your statement, foreigners account of over 93% of graduate degree holders in the US.

We need to start with you understanding what you write first.
Posing as a smart guy, more and more you are showing how dad's money is being wasted on a hopeless case. How about taking some remedial math and English?

Agreed. My remark showed that.


You are mixing two concepts here. HTTP (used for HTML) is just an application layer. Internet was operational by 1981, HTML spec were first proposed in early 1990's, and they followed many other application layers already in existence, SMTP (used for email) being one of them.


You started. I bounced it back, so stop behaving like a spoiled kid.


It wasn't. Yours was simply stupid. You claimed that foreign PhDs in the US consitute 0.05% of the population. The population of the US is 300 mil. There are just over 16 million graduates in the US, which makes it 0.05333... % of that population. It's all simple arithmetic. Go back to school. Oh, and I don't mean a graduate school. Waaaaay to early for you.

Not really. This is what you said:


Therefore, the 0.04999999999999999999999% I proposed is correct as per your own conditions.


You wouldn't be able to tell a fallacious statement from a logical one if you tripped over it. You don't even have the intelligence to verify what you really wrote before throwing in yet another bull, let alone to remember your own post.

Now go to your daddy and apologize for wasting his money on his intelligence resistant offspring. You are such a waste of gene pool.

Is that why Poles have use the term "zlota Polska jesien" (Golden Polish Autumn)? It lasts 2 to 4 months depending on the area and given year's weather conditions. You will see plenty of people in the forests, picking blueberries, and especially mushrooms - hugely popular Fall activity. Some areas are simply infested with people traveling to various forests in late August, September and sometimes early to mid October. Many tourist agencies offer organized mushroom picking tours, as some areas are better for that than others.

that's how it looks:

just make sure you know what you're doing, as some of those may be lethal.

You confuse your height in centimeters with an IQ. It's not the same buddy.

Also, there is nothing in IQ tests about the mythical king, so I don't even know why you mention him. So technically, reading the above, your IQ appears to be in upper double digits.
