Christmas Day and the Antitrust Professor

Posted by D. Daniel Sokol

Merry Christmas to all of our blog readers. 

I do not plan on doing any work today although I am gearing up to begin analyzing my practitioner survey, which yielded 231 responses.  This was an amazing number given that the survey took 10-15 minutes to complete, it was an internet survey, and the people taking it understand that their time is valuable- perhaps even $1,000 a billable hour valuable.

This year Christmas and Channukah overlap, so we will be lighting Channukah candles tonight (night five).  The US Jewish tradition is to eat Chinese food and watch a movie, since there is nothing else to do on Christmas Day.  For the antitrust readership, my list of recommendations for best Chinese food in the DC are (since there is a huge blog readership in DC) includes:

DC- Meiwah Restaurant, 1200 New Hampshire Ave. NW
Bethesda- Penang, 4933 Bethesda Avenue (actually Malaysian but has a lot of Malaysian-Chinese offerings)
Rockville- Bob's 88 Shabu Shabu, 316 N. Washington Street
Wheaton- Paul Kee, 11305-B Georgia Avenue
Virginia - Hong Kong Palace (formerly Saigon Palace), 6387 Leesburg Pike, Seven Corners Center, Falls Church, VA

My three Favorite Channukah songs:

Kyle Broflovski - I'm A Lonely Jew On Christmas

Adam Sandler - Channukah Song

Smooth-E - Hey Ya Channukah
