-Why do Polish airplanes fly so low?

So the pilots can read the street signs.

-Did you hear about the polack who hijacked a submarine?

He demanded $200,000 and a parachute.

-What's delaying the Polish space program?

Development of a working match.

How do you get a one-armed polack out of a tree?
- Wave at him.

Why did the Polack fly to New Orleans, eat a salad, and fly back?
- He had a hankering for surf and turf.
Experience bij!

I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

OMFG they are gonna bury the potato in the Wawel Castle's crypts. Where of all 20th century leaders, only Pilsudski is buried, and before him Bathory and Sobieski. FFS. Only because he died in a retarded crash (he most likely himself caused by forcing the pilot to land so he won't miss his celebration), does not make him a great leader. :bleeding:

In other news: Obama is coming to the Burial of the Potato.  :rolleyes:

Welcome to the celebrity Big Brother reality: where you become great by doing something incredibly stupid and attention-grabbing.

Okay, what's the "potato" joke?  :unsure:

It was on the last page.

As long as we are explain missed references can someone explain the Potato Splash title, I don't follow E European news much.

Some german newspaper caused a stir by comparing Kaczynskis to potatoes - because, they, well, look like ones.

It's hardly a modern phenomenon.  Why do you think JFK was so idolized?

I still don't get your overall hatred in this thread though.  I know you didn't care for Kaczynski's politics, but it's still a loss to any nation to have your President (along with 90 other people) die in a plane crash.

Huh? He was actually very tactful/sympathetic up until the last post. I guess It's Martinus way to go from extreme to extreme  :P

I stand corrected then.  I haven't closely followed this thread.

I feel for him and his family and I think it is sad to lose anyone this way. I also think he was more mumbling than evil, and sorta got the whole presidency thing thrust on him by his brother, and it killed him which is doubly sorry. None of this is a reason to put him in line with the greatest heros and leaders of the nation. I am just ranting at the idiotic times we live in (and I am not the only one in Poland who opposes his burial at the Wawel castle crypts).

If Mr. Potato did bring about his own death by ordering the pilots to land, then in my book he's more deserving of the honor, not less.  Few people are capable of sacrificing themselves for the good of their country.
