Not really. As I've mentioned many times I work on both Microsoft and

3. Polka is too modern for him.

White men can't dance. When I was in grade school my mother did send me to
a dancing school, I guess to improve my grace. We learned the foxtrot,
waltz, and a '50s phenomenon called The Stroll. I don't recall polkas. I
ran into them later as a full contact sport at Polish weddings.

Growing up near Chicago, every wedding we went to had a polka band. Fun!

    In heaven there is no beer
    That's why we drink it here
    And when we're gone from here
    All our friends will be drinking all the beer

Also fun is the "Too Fat Polka" (not played at those weddings).
