Thought I would catch a polka on this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ArOk1ohZjRw but they seem to be playing Cajun music. Q. This being Buffalo, do they have to polka in the snow? |

From: catspaw49 Yeah.....When I was with Airtex Cleveland was part of my territory and I mentioned to enjoy gettin' pretty drunk a couple of time on Dyngus day. I had a customer who was poish (not hard to find in Cleveland) and if you were one of his supplier reps and didn't show up and party with him, you were off the list. I brought a VP the first year I was there and we knocked the other pump supplier out of the warehouse.....and this was a big account. Spaw |
