CollegeCandy’s 64 Jews of Hanukkah

menorah320.jpg

Happy Hanukkah, people!

In honor of the eight days of Hanukkah, we decided to do a tribute to our 8 favorite Hanukkah celebrators (also known as Jews). But then we decided that 8 just wasn’t enough; there are too many good ones! So, we upped it to eight Jews for each of the eight days.

Yes, it’s a lot of Jewish, but let’s be real – Hanukkah gets totally ignored this time of year, so we thought it would be nice to give a little shout-out to the people not dreaming of a white Christmas. You know, the ones dreaming of a little Mu Shu on Christmas eve. Click on any of our favorite Jews to see why we love em so much (and why anyone – Jew or non Jew – will love them too!).

    Do they all celebrate Hanukkah and/or the other Jewish holidays? The whole half-Jewish stuff throws me off. Rather annoying actually. And I’m sick of people thinking we presents each day. Only rich families do that crap.

    well the man liked chocolate-and lots of it- so even if he isn’t actually a member of the tribe, his fabulous invention of all things Hershey makes him one GREAT jew in my book.

    No contest. Jon Stewart. In fact, I think he should change his name back.

Weekly Wrap Up: Thank You, World

Thanksgiving is less than a week away. That means you’ve got six days to hit the gym and eat healthfully in an attempt to make up for the massive amounts of fat, sugar and tryptophan about to hit your bloodstream. (Unless you’re currently single, in which case you’re probably mainlining cake frosting at this very moment.) I’m getting sleepy just thinking about it.
