   Since it is now early December 23 in this time zone,   
      
   Happy:   
      
   1. Raven new (dark) moon (coming up in 4 hrs 16 min),   
      
   2. Festivus (a secular festive holiday that originated   
      on Seinfeld, I think),   
      
   3. Tibb's Eve (in folklore, a day that never arrives,   
      but also a drinking holiday on December 23 here in   
      Newfoundland, though generally celebrated after   
      sunset, which won't be for almost another 14 hours).
