I think it's ridiculous. I've always thought it was ridiculous. You get paid for a year and take summer off?

People will say employees must be retained and children need the summer off.

It still doesn't sit right with me somehow.

It's been this way forever.

@andyd Yeah, well I'm a little jealous of your dog sitting.

I'd like to have a dog for a few days and give it back.

There’s still dregs of Arabic in modern Spanish. The exclamation ‘ojalá’ comes to mind.

So we got the mafias.

That explains a lot.

Consider how mixed English is. It's famous for it.
