polszczyzna potoczna

[Margarita Nafpaktitis]

Dear colleagues,
I've been stumped by a few phrases in Sławomir Shuty's "Cukier w normie"
that have defied the Wielki Słownik, a 3-volume PWN Słownik Języka
Polskiego, a Słownik Polszczyzny Potocznej, a Słownik Polskich Przekleństw i
Wulgaryzmów *and* a pretty extensive search for online resources on Polish
colloquialisms and slang.

If there's anyone out there who can point me to a good source on
contemporary Polish colloquialisms that I may have overlooked or -- even
better -- who is a good source herself/himself or knows someone who is, I'd
be grateful for the assistance.  Please respond off-list, since I'm doubtful
that this is a topic of riveting interest to most of the list.

With thanks in advance,

Margarita
