David, once a CareerLab client, later became a part-time writer for us. He helped our clients and contributed to this consulting letter collection. David is Jewish, and I sent him a card at Christmas.
The cover showed a Santa figure in a sleigh-and-eight, dashing across a night sky, with a dialog balloon: On Isaac! On Izzy! On Eli! On Abe! On Levi! On Morty! On Shlomo! On Gabe. The caption was, "If Santa Converted." Inside was this inscription with a handwritten note: "Merry Hanukkah."

David,
You're a good writing partner. I enjoy our work together and look forward to collaborating, playing, working with you in 20-. You watch my commas, I'll watch yours.
Bill
