Johnukah
This Friday, July 21st, marks the greatest holiday in the history of the world - Johnukah. Traditionally Johnukah begins with the birth story of Johnny, as told by Mother Jamros. Then there is the Mongolian BBQ feast, followed by the giving of the gifts and the eating of the cake (white sheet cake). At some point during the day ceremonial video games are usually played. Then in the evening the festivities really begin. Ceremonial cigars are smoked while many libations are imbibed, after which wildly hilarious phone calls are placed. Traditional Johnukah songs include John Kicks Ass, Johnny B. Good, Johnny Tar, When Johnny Comes Marching Home Again, Angry Johnny and Baby Got Back. Traditional Johnukah games include video games, drinking games and hide and seek.
Quick Facts:

Happy Johnukah! Its a shame we won't be able to partake in the ceremonial sharing of firewater and the playing of the ancient game Halo 2 on multiple television sets like our elders before us.
