Fort Pulaski at Savannah is one of my favorite buildings. I'd like a house like that. Parties on the grass roof, etc. When house guests stay too long, throw their luggage in the moat, and then laugh all day. Tis the good life.
once i was waitin for a metra train in berwyn illinoiz and this guy came up to me an my special lady friend. he looked like someone had beaten the crap out of him and he was drunk but he was very friendly. he didnt speak english though and we didnt speak polish. he just kept saying puh lash ki? puh lash ki? to us and offering us hits off his bottle. well he was lookin for pulaski and that is a damn long road.
Yay Pulaski! I grew up in Chicago and remember celebrating this holiday in grade school, but still have no idea what it's about or what we were celebrating.
Happy Casimir Pulaski Day!

i am starting to look like a hussar!
I was going to ask how the Moustache is coming along...
Did anyone else just suddenly get the urge to start listening to their Sufjan Stevens CD?
such a sad song though,
it's too nice a day for that.
I wish they would make some more paczki's for today's celebrations.
Bonus points if you know the "correct" (read:americanized) pronunciation.
In the morning when you finally go
And the nurse runs in with her head hung low
And the cardinal hits the window
In the morning in the winter shade
On the first of March on the holiday
I thought I saw you breathing
punchkies?
<sigh> sufjan stevens...
Second the sigh-age...
...And third it....
in kentucky, pulaski day is 11 oct. we have a county named for him.
a good friend of mine is head of the kentucky pulaski society or something, but only because the post was open.
my friend also plays accordion.
and he looks like one of the founding fathers - or sam the eagle, take your pick.

Since this one is about to go to bed for another year (or two), I wanted to share what I just bought online for my (soon to be born) Polish Princess:
here's a polish gem!!!
Great movie Vado, starring the one and only "Polish James Dean"; Zbigniew Cybulski. I want that on DVD

Paunch-keys for everyone!
