I came across this site and enjoyed all the postings on this last night of Chanuka. Do you remember the Alan Sherman parody of "Gd Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen"?<BR><BR>Gd rest ye Jerry Mendlebaum<BR>Let nothing you dismay<BR>Dis May you had a rotten month<BR>So what is there to say<BR>Let's hope next May is better<BR>And good business comes your way<BR>And you won't have this feeling of dismay<BR>Next May<BR><BR>

Another Good one~~Thank you,Mimi~<BR>Adam, Happy New Year~Mom*

Lisa, thank you very much for the update.<BR>Meira, you're welcome. "Happy 8th night of Chanukah, Israel" from the U.S.<BR>Thanks Mimi, that IS hilarious ("God rest ye, Jerry Mendelbaum")

Unfortunately, Chanukah is all finished for 2001. We can now post parodies of Christmas carols<BR><BR>(Hark the Herald Tribune Sings<BR>Advertising wondrous things.)<BR><BR>and bring back the Chanukah thread next year.

Adam Dec 17th, 2001 06:29 PM

Thanks Lauren, I'll top it next year on the 1st day of Chanukah! Why don't you start a Christmas parody thread!<BR><BR>Thanks everyone for responding. It seems a lot of people either REALLY like Adam Sandler or Chanukah (or both!).<BR><BR>Now it's time to let this one slide gracefully down the thread list.

Adam- what would Chanukah be without Adam Sandler?

Fodors please remove this post as I find it very offensive. Fodors should be free of religious rants and raves.

yawn Dec 29th, 2002 08:35 PM

Yeah whatever [email protected]...<BR>You went to the trouble of seeking out and topping an old thread because you find it offensive? Makes a lot of sense...not!

Marilyn Dec 29th, 2002 08:37 PM

x, after chuckling through this thread, YOUR post gave me a belly laugh. Religious rants and raves, indeed. Would that all religious rants and raves were as good-humored and innocent as this one!

uh huh Dec 29th, 2002 08:42 PM

Adam Sandler is guilty of many things...but of a religious rant??? Hilarious!

x has a point. if you see someone on Fodors saying Merry Christmas they get attacked for posting something (as quoted by some anonymous poster) &quot;offensive&quot;. I see a double standard on Fodors.

If you do a text search for &quot;merry christmas,&quot; there are several with that in the title, and none have any disparaging replies.<BR><BR>

Jed,<BR><BR>I'd suggest you read the Merry Christmas greeting I posted.<BR>I darn near got run out on a rail and the anger was intense!!

huh? Dec 30th, 2002 01:28 PM

Ummm...isn't religion part of culture....&amp; culture part of the joy of travel? In which case whats with the uproar about a festive greeting??<BR><BR>from a peaceful athiest who doesn't get all this pc nonsense.

Jed Dec 31st, 2002 05:42 AM
