Abstract:
Santa Claus is coming to town.
But what if you don't believe in Santa Claus?
Then Santa Claus doesn't believe in you.
Do you love Christmas?
Do you love Christmas music?
Do you ever notice how Jewish people like Christmas music more than Christians do?
And why do Jewish people think they can have Christmas eight days in a row?
And how about Kwanzaa?
What is Kwanzaa?
What do people eat on Kwanzaa?
Does Kwanzaa have an equivalent of egg nog?
Does anyone actually drink egg nog?
I guess maybe if it's spiked …
Egg nog goes well with cookies that you're not supposed to eat because they're for Santa....

As far as Jews having Christmas eight days in a row, the celebration of Hanukkah came before that of Christmas, and at least our holiday is based on an actual fact (the Maccabean revolt, a guerilla attack against corruption), instead of a mythology. And Jews definetely do not like Christmas music more than Christians. Do you really think we want to hear about Santa Claus from Thanksgiving till New Years Eve?
