Hanukkah starts at Sunset this coming Sunday (Dec. 18th).

A woman goes to the post office to buy stamps for her Hanukkah cards.  She says to the clerk, "May I have 50 Hanukkah stamps?"

The post office clerk says, "What denomination?"

"Oy vey!" the woman says, "has it come to this?  OK, give me 16 Orthodox, 22 Conservative, and 12 Reform."

Happy Hanukkah to those on this board who observe the Festival of Lights.
