Thank You. Goodbye.

After being in Honduras for about five months. The following conversation left me reeling with laughter.

Husband: I don't think he likes me very much.
Me: Why do you say that?
Husband: Because every time I talk to him he dismisses me.
Me: What do you mean?
Husband: I mean he always tells me "Thank you. Good bye." every time I tell him what I've been working on.
Me: No, honey. He says "Gracias a Dios" (Thanks to God), which is different than "Gracias. Adios." (Thank you. Goodbye.)

No wonder the poor guy thinks no one in Honduras likes him!
