December 2021

It's that Holiday time of year again. 

Wow, how time flies. We're past Thanksgiving, and Christmas and the New Year will be here quickly.

It turns out that tonight was and the last night of Chanukah – which is the Jewish festival of lights. This is the holiday that involves lighting the Menorah (Chanukah candles), eating latkes (potato pancakes), exchanging gifts, playing spin the Dreidel (a gambling game), and enjoying a sense of family togetherness for eight days and nights.

That's a long time, right?! Well, sometimes it seems even longer with my family. 

As a gift to all of you, here is "The Chanukah Song," performed by comedian Adam Sandler on Saturday Night Live.  It became an instant classic (and he since released a second, third, and fourth version.)

Here is the video. And, if you're feeling left out – here's Adam Sandler's Christmas Song.

It's not too different from Christmas. 

The cynic in me believes the gift part of the holiday was invented by merchants.

Regardless, the Capitalogix team has been in a festive mood, and the office has been filled with holiday cheer. We recently celebrated a Thanksgiving Potluck as well.

From my family to yours, Happy Holidays!
