Personally, I've never sent one, and never will. Obviously I don't speak for the left, of course.

If you can't produce something, anything, I think you should be compelled to retract my name from this statement.

I always thought Pulaski created from the word Polak , with ski to make it more Russian sounding.

Pulaski is a Polish surname. For example, Polish soldier Casimir Pulaski who served with the Continental Army during the revolutionary war. Schools in the Chicago area get the first Monday in March off for Pulaski Day, celebrated due to the large Polish contingent in the area.

If it's not Vienna Beef, it's not a hot dog ...

Most hot dog sausages here are going to be German in origin, and beef rather than pork. A few butchers around our way sell pork 'bangers' though, you might be able to find them if you look around.

I still haven't got the taste for chicken sausages, they still taste weird to me after all these years.

I've never had a chicken sausage. Or at least I don't think so. I've eaten so many 99c US hotdogs, I've probably had chicken, squirrel, raccoon and vagrant in my time.

If a karma message offends...please copy and paste it and send it to me. There is a certain person amongst us who loves to send such messages...this person needs to stop sending them.
