Happy Holiday !
No, no! Unlike a department store -- I don't mean Christmas.

I mean happy Hanukkah for our Jewish members.

1. Thanks but for secular Jews there's really nothing to celebrate
The zealots who liberated the Temple then went on a rampage, killing all "Hellenized" Jews.

4. I suppose that's true.
It's sort of funny that Christmas is probably bigger among secular Christians than the devout.

Next year, it resets to the 21st through 29th of December.
