2005_12_merrymazeltov.jpgRight about now, both Christians and Jews are each celebrating their respective holidays. Apparently, this is only the fourth time the two holiday have converged in 100 years. Gothamist's only question is what is this doing to the Chinese restaurant industry tonight?

At any rate, we wish everyone a Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah, and Happy Kwanzaa Eve.
