Hokay, so. There was the regular set-up, right, with the opressive dictators and the valiant underdogs. So the valiant underdogs, the Maccabees (if that sounds familiar, there's a soccer club by that name) go and valiantly retake the Jewish Holy Temple (this was before it got detsroyed {again}). And to symbolise their success, after they clean it up and wipe the graffitti off the walls, they have to light the Menorah, big candlabra style thing. Only they have enough oil for ONE day, and it'll take eight for extra oil to arrive. But God intervenes, as per usual, and miraculously the one little jar of oil lasts eight days. This is probably because the little jar of oil was an underdog.
On Hannukka (or Hanuka, Hanukah, Chanuka, Chanukka, Channukka, etc - only holiday in the world nobody can agree on how to spell) all the Jews celebrate the miraculous Miracle by lighting a Hannukkia (like a Menorah, only with eight branch thingies) and giving all the kids bushels of presents. Also chocolate happens.
Yay, Hanukah's next week, I think my Gran's gonna give me a new mobile!

When your printer cartridge lasts an unexpectedly long time after the computer has notified you that it needs to be changed.
My report was 17 pages, even though the ink was low, I was able to get the whole thing...Happy printer hanukah!
Man, that thing has lasted like two weeks! This is the longet printer hanukah I've ever seen.
The store was closed, and the paper was due the next morning. If it wasn't from an unexpected printer hanukah I'd have failed the class.

when a girl doesn't shave her downstairs for 8 days during the Jewish holiday of hanukah, thus creating a bush
Mike was warned not to go down on her because she was growing a hanukah bush to celebrate the holiday

When a bowl or bong is lit once and it is cherried around the circle 8 or more times.
maz and the guys experienced a Hanukah Miracle thursday night when the bong got passed all the way around an 8-man circle without having to be lit again. then they went and ate mozzarella sticks and watched disney movies until they passed out.
