I'm *only* German, Dutch, Irish, Scottish, and Welsh (and maybe a 
little bit Spanish and French), but anyone who grew up within 50 miles 
of Cleveland during the '60s watched at least one episode of "Polka 
Varieties."  EVERYONE "back home" knows who Frankie Yankovic was!  He 
was "America's Polka King"!!

A less-known fact is that Frankie was also Weird Al's dad.
