The Holiday Season 2012

[mabfan]

Today, of course, is Christmas. If you're celebrating Christmas, may you have a merry one, full of happiness.

It's also Isaac Newton's birthday, something I always like to commemorate given my background in Physics.

And earlier in the month of December, I celebrated the festival of Chanukah. Let's take each of these in turn.

Happy Tuesday!

Do any of the Jewish cultural or communal organizations up there do stuff? Aside from The Jewish Museum's annual efforts, there is a lot to do here now, ranging from learning opportunities to fundraisers.

Not really. Our shul did sponsor a "help clean up the shul" event this morning, complete with food, but it's not really something we could bring the kids to, if you know what I mean. Up here, it's mostly figuring out your own entertainment. Usually the traditional Chinese food and a movie.

And for those of my friends who celebrate no holiday at all, may you enjoy a good start to the Gregorian New Year of 2010.

There were certainly good bits of 2010, but I think on the whole I'd rather have a good start to 2013 CE instead. :-)

One little mistake....

I hope you had a Happy Chinese Dinner And A Movie Day.
