Happy Hannukkah! (Cough when you say it!)

I heard some children's Gremlin (or equivalent) stories on NPR tonight that made me believe the holiday started on Monday. If I'm wrong, sorry, but I know it lasts about seven days longer than xmas, with or without a decorated "bush." Never mind the "twelve days," no one can afford that.

For lack of knowledge of a better term, mazel tov! Best to all who identify.

And happy holidays to all, 'cuz there are several for the next two months.

Basically, it is a generic "happy holidays." Chanukah started Sunday night.
