The same reason we call a crescent wrench a Tennessee socket set (:

I thought it was called a Mexican socket set.

Here in California..its called an Arkansas SocketSet

I guess the "Polacks" have gotten a break lately. :-)

Guy walks into a bar an "Nordeast" Minneapolis, and says, "Who wants to
hear a Polak Joke?"

About five big huge burly patrons gather around him and say, "Yeah, tell
a Polak joke."

Guy says, "Uh, nah, thanks. I don't want to have to explain it five
times."

Um, Yes? ;-)

Did you know that "Polak" is the English transliteration of the Polish
word for "Polish person"? :-)

Cheers!
