Mazurka WojciechowskaParticipantI do get annoyed when someone uses their cell phone in a public place. Usually it’s on a train and some mom is blabbing loudly to her maid so everyone in the car knows she has servants. I’m no better than they are, because that’s when I pull out bubble wrap and start popping it until they terminate the conversation. Incidentally, when I have to use my cell phone in public I turn my head so I can’t be heard and talk quietly.

Mazurka WojciechowskaParticipantI remember when there were a lot of Polish jokes going around in the ’60’s. The reason people told those jokes is the same reason folks are telling ethnic jokes today; they don’t have the whole story. Polish people were considered ‘stupid’ because many of them worked in factories due to their lack of English skills, the men wore socks with sandals and the women wore clothes that didn’t match (polka dots with stripes). They also didn’t use as much deodorant as Americans. At the time (40 years ago) the Poles were toward the bottom of the European immigration totem ‘pole’, the Germans and Irish having assimilated years earlier. It may interest you to note that in Poland Americans are often considered boorish loudmouths who are uninformed about world events. The Poles, however, do not resort to telling ‘American’ jokes. By the way, despite my ethnic sounding name I’m an American of Polish (and other Euro) descent. I’ve been to Poland 5 times, and I lived there for a year. It’s a nice country and some day Americans may be gunning to emigrate over there.

Mazurka WojciechowskaParticipantUni. It tastes like throw-up. I had it once and nothing short of a million bucks would make me eat it again. In contrast, giraffe, crocodile, ostrich, horse and a few other things people would not normally eat are no big deal. I’d like to try snake some day. I bet it tastes kind of like chicken.
