My roommate Tzachi doesn't believe in Christmas... and in jest told me not to mention that holiday in our apartment.  I know it was the Catholic church's response to pagans who celebrated the winter solstice, but honestly!  'Tis the Season... and I wanted to throw myself a pitty party because I don't have a Christmas tree.  And this is my first Christmas away from home in 24 years!!!  So I stuck on some headphones and started listening to Frank Sinatra's Christmas album... I think I figured out why Tzachi is so bitter, and it has nothing to do with religion... He always wanted Santa to visit him, and Santa never did. Santa doesn't usually come to Israel.  But, now that I'm here... well, I think I'll have some fun with this one!
