Thank Tom. My menorah is so strikingly similar to the one in your photo, that I just had to go downstairs and get it to do a side by side compare. Up until a couple of years ago, we used to entertain a couple and their two young sons on Christmas Eve. One year I played and sang Adam Sandlers "The Hanukkah Song". It turned into an annual tradition for many years, plus some additional songs. They moved to Australia in the last 1-2 years, although the sons remain in the US attending college. We are hoping to continue the tradition with some new guests this year.

I might have to agree!

Tom, you're one of the goofy bastards that makes this place fun, and "goofy bastard" is one of my most emphatic terms of endearment. I propose that you, sir, are "Lit AF". :tongue-new:

Happy Hanukkah to you as well. In fact, today is the annual family latke making day. Each year we rent a commercial kitchen and all gather to drink libations and cook the latkes for our annual dinner. I host the dinner each year at my house...this year 30+ people. If I cooked this many latkes at my house (I've done this before)....my house smells like grease and potatoes for months. Next week I cook my annual chopped liver...complete with real schmalz....using my grandmothers mechanical meat grinder....this is a real treat.

Happy Hanukkah to Tom and all who celebrate it! Love the Menorasaurus Rex, That really brightens my day, LOL.

Great choice of song with
Adam Sandlers "The Hanukkah Song" Guild-1979-D40. I think it is awesome when little things like that become tradition.

I gave up organ meats decades ago, but if somebody put chopped chicken liver in front of me I would not be able to resist. It's usually mixed with a chopped hard boiled egg and a binding agent of some sort. There is probably a video on youtube of people eating it and other similar foods for the first time. The expressions and comments are very funny.

Thanks TX. This couple knew me for a few years before they heard or knew I played the guitar. I think they were dumbfounded the first time I played. Apparently the two sons looked forward to this day every year.

Funny story. When I was a little kid we had a few houses in our hood that had all blue lights. Blue is my favorite color. I kept asking if we could have blue lights and my parents kept saying, "NO!!" I finally got a little whiny and said, "But WHY???" and my mom said in a kind of stage whisper, "Because it means you're JEWISH!!" So being well aware how my mom was in these types of moods I just let it go and thought to myself, "I don't know what this "Jewish" thing is, but when I'm grown up I'm gonna be one and have blue lights!" Little boy logic, I guess....

This year I'm celebrating NOTHING, except moving which totally BLOWS!! I hate moving.....
