Is Hannukah miracle something about a small amount of oil that burnt for 8 days or something like that? Hence is remembered through the menorah?

[Wayward_fool]

That was for question 6 by the way.

 

Sorry but I'm having a hard time replying coz the text boxes keep disappearing before I can finish typing the post. That's right, they disappear HALFWAY through a post and I gotta finish the post totally imagining what I'm typing and stuff... so I type whatever I can as fast as I can then hit enter and pray for the best.

 

Thank goodness for touch typing classes, I can tell you that.
