Ok, here's my impression of Poland:

"Hello, I'm Poland" Ahahahaha [img]graemlins/biglaugh.gif[/img] Aren't I funny? Hello???

Actually, I've never been there, but I'm always interested in finding out about other countries. I've only ever been to Canada (a bunch of times because I'm only an hour from the border), Aruba, and France. So far I've had nothing but pleasant experiences in foriegn countries, so I see no reason why Poland would be any different. Do you have any pictures of what the country looks like that you can share?

And of course it's the country where this cheerful fellow was born.

For those who don't know him, he's a really famous pop star who had quite some success with Abbá Pater a few years back. His Dutch accent is also remarkable, remarkable enough to make the headlines every year during Easter in our country. Oh, and I believe he had something to do with some sort of church as well. ;)

Missed that one too, my mum wouldn't let me. :( Said I was "too young" :rolleyes: - as if I couldn't take care of myself, I mean, I was already six years old, but she treated me like I was still 5. :( ;)

But I'm really a great fan of his work! I mean, you can tell that despite all of his successes, he's still the same person he used to be before his Big Break, just a regular Joe like the rest of us; you know, just like Michael Jackson. ;) And don't get me started about his lyrics! Man, they're so deep, and you can just tell he really means what he sings by his sincerity; it isn't just lyrics to him, he really believes in what he sings. There aren't that many people in the music industry who are as sincere as he is. [img]graemlins/thumbsup.gif[/img]
Gonna see him during his Magical Pope Mobile Tour later this year, can't wait. [img]graemlins/heee.gif[/img]

</font>[/QUOTE]You know, an old mate of Yorick's and mine mixed The Pope when he toured Australia! Apparently he used to get a guitar out and sing a few tunes and this guy was the sound man. What a gig...
