Bye.
Hey, I just learned that literally means "Go with God." Seems obvious now. Nice. I'm taking a blogging break over the long weekend. Later, dudes.

Have a Fabulous Holiday Weekend!
Have a fun long weekend! We just had ours {in Canada} last weekend :)
I really like that "Adios" font!
Have a great long weekend...
i think it's that "God be with you" was reduced to "goodbye"
same thing with adios (to god)
It's more - 'Until Gd.' So, 'hasta la vista' would be 'until we see each other again.' 'A dios' would be more final, almost 'until we see each other in heaven.'
In French it's 'au re-voir,' 'until we see each other again;' 'a-dieu,' 'until Gd.'
Have a great weekend!
A-ri-veder-ci, non addio!

Hope you had a great weekend!
That reminds me of my lightbulb about con queso, the dip that means "with cheese". So obvious in hindsight...
Hey E's,
You should edit Wikipedia, the source of my newfound (mis?)knowledge. I looked up Adiós to confirm that it had an accent over the o!
My patients often say to me (I'm a visiting nurse): vaya con dios, as in "go with God."
Have a good rest. :) I love your site, it's full of fun stuff!
