It's that time again and I wish you all a peaceful and prosperous new year and no matter what, keep those candles lit. 
My gift of a smile to one and all:
Iranian president Mahmud Ahmadinejad calls President Obama and tells him, "Barack, I had a wonderful dream last night. I could see America, the whole beautiful country, and on each house I saw a banner."
"What did it say on the banners?" Obama asks. Mahmud replies, "UNITED STATES OF IRAN."
Obama says, "You know, Mahmud, I am really happy you called, because believe it or not, last night I had a similar dream. I could see all of Tehran, and it was more beautiful than ever, and on each house flew an enormous banner."
"What did it say on the banners?" Mahmud asks.
Obama replies, "I don't know. I can't read Hebrew." |

I was watching an old episode of "Even Stevens" the other day. It was the one where the young man finds and accidently destroys the Hannakkah presents. Funny!
Hey! Wanna adopt me for a season. You folks get eights day worth of gifts, we only get one.

This morning in church, we sang, "Light One Candle."
"Light one candle for the Maccabee children with thanks that their light didn't die." (taken from the Unitarian Universalist Hymnal.)
We also sang, "Do You Hear What I Hear?" which was written by Noel Regney and his wife Gloria Shayne Baker.
Noel was a Unitarian Frenchman who, as a young man had been drafted into Hitler's army, but he defected and joined a militia group who led some of Hilter's troops into an ambush. He later moved to New York. When the Cuban Missile Crisis happened in the early sixties, he wrote the lyrics to, "Do You Hear What I Hear?" It is often heard as a Christmas Carol, but was actually meant to be a prayer for peace. |
