There were a bunch of "Stupid Polock" jokes during the 1970-80's.
Ten or so years ago I learned that Polish people are not stupid.
In WWII it was a few Polish fellows who cracked the CODE that the Germans
used to send their Secret Messages.
What they did sure helped the British and the USA to shorten the war.
None of my distant relatives were Polish, so I'm not defending myself.
I'm a mix of Scottish and Irish. (NOT whiskey)
