I hope, for the sake of everyone, that I am wrong. I have found the root of all the differences between the North and the South. In the North we have a thing called a season. Actually, we have four of them, and they are such a part of the way we live, we gave them each a name. This is when the leaves turn green, the grass starts growing, and the birds come back.
Summer is filled with swimming and laughing, and most importantly, no school.
It lasts from September to November. In the fall, the leaves fall off the trees, the birds fly south, and all of nature begins to prepare itself to be renewed for the upcoming year. I know that those of you from south of the Mason-Dixon line haven't heard that word before, but that's okay because down here, winter doesn't exist. Winter must include several things. First, it must be no warmer than 30 degrees Fahrenheit.
