Merry Christmas

and Happy Hanukkah! The very existence of Hanukkah makes the whole "Happy Holidays vs. Merry Christmas" argument moot to me. Are we supposed to ignore Jews? I realize that Christmas is the predominantly celebrated holiday in late December, but it's not the only one. And I am about 99% sure that the miracle of the lampstand in the temple predates the birth of Christ. So, while I celebrate the birth of my savior, I've got no problem acknowleding my Jewish fellow-citizens. And if I may be so bold, please allow me to appologize for all the over-zealous, under-educated Christians out there throwing a hissy fit.
