We had our glasses which, as we found out, significantly increased in a […]
"Hotel California", piosenka, którą tak bardzo kocham
Probably one of the best songs from the 70s. Maybe one of the best. Here is one of its original performances. The main musical theme composed out of three notes. Just three notes! A brilliant guitar solo, in the opinion of many also one of the best. Humongous crowds listening to the band which played, […]
Bentley, mój oddany towarzysz pisania
If there are no dogs in Heaven, then when I die, I want to go where they went. Will Rogers Bentley was our Christmas gift to Bonnie. The eight-weeks-old came with a red ribbon and a bow. Instead of a Jaguar. The kids and I did many secret talks, and we got this little furry […]

Not unlike the Polish soldiers’ contribution to the final results of WW2. Having sustained the most casualties (after Russia) and having the […]

“A tree without roots is just a piece of wood.”― Marco Pierre White Wouldn’t you love to meet your great-grandparents? Or at least, as an invisible man hover above their farm and watch them for a day or so? I would. Their farm in still there. But the only thing left after my ancestors are the […]
