When Hanukkah and Oil Don't Mix

Tuesday December 23, 2008

Even though Christmas is fast approaching, I would like to wish all my Jewish readers a Happy Hanukkah (which is currently going on). Jewish people everywhere are celebrating this festival of lights – a time commemorating the great miracle of the oil lasting for eight nights. You can enjoy your latkes and donuts but be careful about oil-based lubricants as they can damage latex condoms, which could ruin your holiday festivities (and lead to an unintended Hanukkah present)!

Have Fun!
