*******Past Events********
On the 1st point, we like 2 B dfrnt, & dont like
competition. More than tht, we (like others), dont like $ being spent on
duplicity. So we do Not compete 2 make yet ANOTHER
Chanuka Party. Instead, we have always had a "NOT a Christmas Party" on
Dec. 25th. This was always one of the biggest parties of the year.
It was always one of the few times tht the singles
would come up 2 me & wax profusely , W/ appreciation & grattitude , saying
things like ," Thnx so much 4 doing this
2day ! " . This idea has been a consistent hit for many yrs now.
Most of our parties take place in large backyards.
Last year on Dec. 25th the nay sayers (weather
reporters) were unanimous abt rain tht day. The miracle took place as we
were getting flooded W/ calls & emails -" R U still gonna have the party? "
.
I started calling 4 a dfrnt venue a few hours B4
starting time. Miraculously, in the 11th hour, I found an
old frnd who is a successful attorney, who lived in a large home in Hancock
Park --- 1/2 blk from our original outdoor location. (There
is a G-d!)
I stationed Jesus (dont pronounce it tht way ; he was
one of the South of the border itinerant laborers I picked up 2 help shlep
tables etc.) @ the old location W/ flyers , 2 give ppl , 2 redirect them 2
the half blk away , 2 the new location .
We had a huge crowd in this LOVELY home & a good time
was had by all.
This yr we scheduled our "Post
Hanuka Party" (AKA "NOT
a Christmas Party") @ the same backyard as last yr. (I figured, I have a
credit & they owed me one).
Then the same scenario began again W/ the Rain
Panick.
Weather reports --- Phone calls --- panicky emails
etc. But I felt tht "Bashert" will not do this again, so we went 4wrd .The
party was from 2 to 5 PM.It looked foreboding the whole day but
---------------til 5 NOTHING happened --- & we got almost 400 ppl.
At 5 PM it started 2 drizzle.
Yes my dear frnds ; There is a G-d .
