Got to be the world’s largest Chanukkah menorah–atop the Azrieli (Shalom) Center in Tel Aviv.

MORE: Lighting the fourth candle on Christmas Eve, Mr. B. said "Remember the Alamo!" Mrs. Charm told him not to be disrespectful, but I had to agree. It was sort of like the Alamo. Except the Maccabees won. For a while, anyway.

Beat me, rabbi, eight to the bar

Yes, it sounds masochistic. But it’s actually from a funny little number called Boogie Woogie Chanukkah.
